I didn't change my prediction in the late game though? But anyways I didn't know the rule.....COLLUSION I SAY! COLLUSION 

The rule comes into effect after the late batch of Sunday games has ended, so changing the SNF pick without touching the MNF prediction is also not allowed to result in a tie. This week we had a special case with the postponed NYJ@BUF game, but the rule is all the same.

Anyway, since the Saints lost, you lost the first step of the tie-breaking procedure; and since so many people picked Baltimore, the tie-breaker for the score wasn't needed in your case, so ultimately you lost out on nothing.

Okay, rule is clear now.
