WEEK 11: Falcons Pain, Millions Madness, and Survivor Chaos
11-19-2025
Falcons vs Panthers: What Actually Happened
The Falcons fell in a heart-breaker, losing 30-27 in overtime to the Panthers. What went wrong for Atlanta?
First, the Panthers’ rookie QB Bryce Young absolutely lit them up, throwing for a franchise-record 448 yards.That alone should raise alarms for Atlanta’s defensive staff.
Second, the Falcons couldn’t turn yardage into dominance. They managed fewer total yards (348 to Carolina’s 486) and despite putting together some solid drives, they faltered in the red zone and had a worse third-down conversion rate (3/17 vs. 6/17 for the Panthers).
Finally, the Falcons simply didn’t close. They held a 21-7 lead heading into the second quarter, but allowed Carolina to chip away and eventually force OT. That kind of collapse in late game scenarios costs many more than just this contest, it kills confidence and chills pool-survivor hopes.
In short: great statistical yardage, but dreadful finishing, suspect defensive stops, and a meltdown late in the game. Not how you want to eliminate 4.3 % of your Survivor pool, but that’s exactly what happened.
CIRCA MILLIONS
Week 11 gave us movement in the standings, just like it always does. Millions is the most unforgiving contest ever created. One week you’re a genius, the next week you’re begging for a time machine.
THEMIND97 is still very much in the mix. They are tied for 3rd place with a 38-17 record, which is insane consistency deep into November.
HE IS THE ONE dropped from 4th to 10th this week. Still a great position, but this contest can flip fast. One weekend can rewrite your entire ranking.
We also have six WCP clients tied for 28th place in the full standings. Those entries are 1EYEDKING, ALATOS, DAZMAN, HAMMAHEADZ, PPW, and YABOZO. A strong block of contenders still pushing forward.
BOOBY PRIZE UPDATE
BBC BOYZ is currently sitting in 6th place for the Booby Prize in Circa Millions. After trying it myself for Q3, I have a new level of respect for anyone competing for last place. Losing on purpose is actually hard.
My personal record is 4-16 through the first two weeks of Q3. Week 1 was great with a 1-4 performance, but then Week 2 ruined everything when I accidentally went 3-2. Now, unless I deliver a perfect 0-5 in the final two weeks, I’m not catching the true legends of the tank job. The Booby Prize grind is real.
WESTGATE CONTESTS
We have one entry, TAIL PARTY-1, that is currently perfect and tied for first place in the 3-week Westgate mini-contest that ends next week. One more week of clean picks could lock in the win.
In Westgate Survivor, UNCLE PHIL is still hanging on as one of the final eight entries. That is an extremely deep run in a contest that usually ends hopes early.
ON TO THE NEXT
Week 11 didn’t deliver the massive bloodbath we’ve seen in earlier weeks, but it still had plenty of chaos. The survivor tightened up a bit more. Millions shifted the leaderboard again. Westgate entries are giving us real sweat potential across multiple contests.
WCP continues to have contenders everywhere. The season is heating up and the stakes only get higher from here. Week 12, we’re ready.
