Not as easy to pick the winner as you think is it. Obviously looks like non of us make a living on betting.

So I want to clarify, I have not bet against the Pats in years so I don't know how my pick was for Buffalo last night - something is sneaky

Yeah, sure..... Thought it was a ballsy pick, but given your lead, was not a bad idea. Nice grouping for the weekly bottom threesome.....
Some observations;
NFL does not have its chit together, especially with officiating
Quality of the product is lower than I can remember
Cincinnati was not worthy of being undefeated as long as they were and will be exposed as their schedule is not pretty.
Phillip Rivers is a fraud. Tired of hearing he is an elite QB
Kicking game is playing a much larger part in determining winners, esp extra points
Could these games be rigged???? Certainly feels like it.

9 games out of first with 6 to go. What a screwy season, that 3 and 4 total is killing me!

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

Well, I got really busy last week with family and work around here getting ready for the Holidays. I missed entering my picks. If you miss entering you go 0 for 16 so I am out of it after being in 3rd place for awhile.
You guys carry on!

And we are not playing against the spread. If we were our win loss would be about 10 %.

Got what I needed tonight.... all but two of you picked opposite me. Just happens to be the Bucs for me, but the team hardly matters. From here on in it is all about picking the upsets, AND winning the games that the leaders/majority don't pick. Risky, but its going to be live or die by the sword for the rest of the season if you want to make a move....

Let's see, one game closer to Nightfighter......nice.
You are absolutely correct though. In order to catch up, you have to take a gamble and try to predict the upset otherwise you will never catch up. Any given Sunday!

I took the Giants as my "upset" pick..damn they came close.And Miami apparently left their D in FL as for my SF pick ? Well that was obviously an acid flash back.

Yeah, I agree, Chuckie. Tastes the same as 18-1
Doing a last minute flip on this last game..... Need to take a chance to move up and can't be rooting against who I want in the AFC Championship game.

Tunabreath and JohnR in a tie for the crown! Congrats guys!
I forgot to put in my pick yesterday, it would have lost anyway. Red was the only one who picked Denver. Thanks for running it Bob.
Was a lot of fun. Hope to have more playing next year.
