Congrats Billie, damn.. you really handled your Buziness, :clap

 

[the AntiPusher]

I hope you have a great week here KS because we have the exact same picks

Darth.. you can always take the Boys since you dislike the Hawks

 

[DarthFed]

Hate doesn't blind me much... though maybe it did a little last week with New England. I'm not dumb enough to pick the Cowboys at Seattle though. I think the Boys will crash down to Earth soon enough, they've had it easy so far and have barely scraped by a couple of those games.

I am gonna change my Bengals over the Panthers.. I am going to pick the Pathers.. Is that ok with all of you?

 

[DarthFed]

Heck yeah, I want to pick up an extra game on you!

 

[Didi]

Yes sir, 8-7 respresents a serious improvement on 3-13 and 5-8. Statistically I'm heading towards 10-6 territory for next week. Watch out gentleman! The great Billy Beane would say - there are good gamblers and there are poor gamblers. Then there's 50 feet of crap. And then there's Didi. :snigger

It was bound to happen sooner or later. I'm sitting here thinking I should have taken the Texans though.

 

[kskate2]

Sweet Lord, the Colts and these onside kicks. :snigger They got a TD out of this one. Unreal.

 

[the AntiPusher]

This a shame, what a absolutely brilliant effort by JJ Watts and the team to get back in the game and make it competitve but to loose on a qb fumble strip, Unbelieveable

 

[DarthFed]

Yeah ended up being a good one. Watt is ridiculously good. Houston now has a mediocre 3-3 record but they are a pretty solid team. Foster looks healthy and despite this game the defense is very good. But with Fitzpatrick at QB they don't have a chance to be a great team.

Indy has recovered well from 0-2. I thought coming into the season they might end up being the #2 contender in the AFC and I haven't seen anything to suggest otherwise.

Only if they can ever get an established runnig game.. I doubt it because Richardson is overrated..Indy Defense cannot take the deep into the playoffs.. I still think they made the right choice by going with Andrew Luck. Reggie Wayne is still Reggie Wayne.. Best hands in football for the past 5-8 years IMO

 

[DarthFed]

They might go deep in the playoffs but I don't see them winning it all yet. Stranger things have happened however and that's the beauty of 1 game playoffs, sometimes it is just about who is playing great come January. And Richardson probably isn't overrated because I don't think anyone rates him highly anymore. Bradshaw is clearly the more effective back for them and should be getting the bulk of the carries.

 

[Billie]

I'm dead tired, but here are the rest of my picks...I picked Colts before I left (I think post #90).

Colts @ Texans - Colts
Jags @ Titans - Titans
Ravens @ Bucs - Ravens
Broncos @ Jets - Broncos
Lions @ Vikings - Vikings
Pats @ Bills - Bills
Panthers @ Bengals - Bengals
Steelers @ Browns - Steelers
Packers @ Dolphins - Packers
Chargers @ Raiders - Raiders
Bears @ Falcons - Falcons
Cowboys @ Seahawks - Seahawks
Redskins @ Cards - Cards
Giants @ Eagles - Eagles
49ers @ Rams - 49ers

Pack in danger of laying an egg in Miami.

 

[kskate2]

24-20 Miami at the 2 min warning. Pack has the ball

 

[kskate2]

With 6 seconds left on the 5 yd line, Rogers finds Corliss in the endzone for the go ahead score. 27-24. Poor Dolphins, they're all bawling now.

 

[DarthFed]

That game took years off my life, GB defense went to hell when their starting cornerbacks went down near the start of the 2nd half

 

[kskate2]

The FG kicker for Cinci is bawling just like Dolphins. :cry He misses the winning FG w/ 2 seconds left in OT. So Cinci/Panthers tie and we have our first tie of the season.

 

[Billie]

I didn't know there can be a tie in footballuzzled So what happens in that case, everybody gets a point or no point for that pick?

I had picked Lions and Browns originally and then changed them:laydownlaughing

 

[DarthFed]

We will just discount the game for our pick'em. Will be easier to tally the scores.
