The Jaguars, who closed as 12-point home favorites, enjoyed a record-setting performance by Trevor Lawrence, who became the only player in NFL history with 5+ pass TDs, 1+ rush TD, and 50+ rush yards in a single game.

Entrants cannot use the same team more than once during the course of the season. Circa Survivor, which requires a $1,000 entry fee, will once again be a massive sweat for those who run deep into the season due to the massive winner-take-all prize pool.
