Week 12 of the Circa Survivor contest proved dramatic both on and off the field, with a devastating missed entry and multiple eliminations significantly impacting the competition.

From the initial 14,266 entries, only 96 remained entering Week 12, with each entry worth approximately $150,168. Four entries were eliminated before the NFL weekend began - one due to a missed entry submission and three from unsuccessful Pittsburgh Steelers picks against the Cleveland Browns.

The Washington Commanders and Miami Dolphins were the most popular Week 12 selections, each accounting for 33 picks. The Commanders' loss to the Dallas Cowboys proved particularly painful, failing to force overtime after missing a crucial extra point.

The missed entry controversy has generated significant social media discussion. While Circa hasn't provided specific details, their rules clearly state picks must be submitted by 4 p.m. PST every Saturday or before the selected game's kickoff, whichever comes first. Special deadlines apply for Thanksgiving Day/Black Friday and Christmas games.

The contestant who missed the entry deadline lost their chance at the record $14.26 million prize pool. Speculation about whether the error occurred due to contestant oversight or proxy service failure remains unresolved, though many believe it was likely contestant error, as proxy services typically submit picks when deadlines approach.

The Commanders, Steelers, and Houston Texans losses in Week 12 eliminated a combined 45 entries from the remaining pool, further narrowing the field of potential winners.
