IndisGuise, Yes there is a seperate "competition" going on as well. One is the knock-out series going on amongst the remaining 8 players. Also going in parallel, every week until the super-bowl, all the players will be ranked according to their points. Points are based on the winner/looser prediction and then on the scores predicted (lower the differential higher ranked you will be). So, YES, everybody can take part on this and will be ranked after the last game, everyweek.
