NFL Swampcrash 2023 - Super Wild Card Weekend

$20 an hour to shovel in a hellacious blizzard - these guys are either really broke, or really can't stand being cooped up with their families.

Looked it up, there are 3 in Greater Buffalo. The only reason I’ve ever heard was Nick Tahou’s garbage plate. Never been, but that was a thing in college.

Re: NFL Swampcrash 2023 - Super Wild Card Weekend
You'll notice the homefield advantages factored into the scoreboard up there. That's based on the difference in weekly scoring average divided by 2 and rounded up. If the lower-seeded team had a better average, no advantage is awarded. Not much in it for this round.
ETA: And the Bills-Titans is incorrect and should be the other way around. It'll be fixed going forward

Re: NFL Swampcrash 2023 - Super Wild Card Weekend
Just to be certain for Question 5 you're just looking for the general event and not the specific subject of the photo. Like it'd be fine to say "Godzilla attacking San Francisco" and not necessary to say "Mecha-Charles Barkley grabbing his junk over a fallen Godzilla after he dunked on him and got the foul over the Transamerica Pyramid".
My avatar corresponds on my place in the Swamp posting list with the all-time Home Run list. Number 45 is Paul Konerko with 439.

NOTE: I had an answer come in for the movies question that, while I'm not adding it up manually, is probably right except that the source list says "in a leading role". I didn't put that in the original question, so anyone that hasn't already looked it up and wants to guess again is free to do so.
Anyone that answered more than 5 minutes ago had what I would consider a legit answer though.
