Pick'em week 16

Getting down to the wire.... Only way to make a move is to pick some underdogs and hope they come in. I have to make up 15-20 points in the next two weeks to catch the leaders. I'm thinking JohnR and Bob will be playing a prevent defense, ie. going with all the favorites....

Nope. Closest was Spincognito picking Indy for its first win.

I've been in downward spiral and hope to turn it around today with even more underdog picks.

Now we have a horse race.... Some real tough picks for the final week. Could come down to the last game, Giants and Cowboys....

So what are we using for tie breakers? Win loss record? I hope it's not the points, TDs, FGs for the last game......
