Pick'em league

First shutout of Brady since '06 and it was because i put 15 points on the Bucs.

Very bad development for the Hawks as well. Looks like 49ers will make the playoffs so we have to finish at least one game better than the Saints.

Our playoff chances are now down to 2%

Even if we win out they are only 26%. About half of what they were if the Saints had lost.

Ok this has to be the weirdest stat of the year.

Saints vs. Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers. 3-0 Outscored them 83-30

Saints vs. rest of the league: 4-7 230-255

That's ridiculous. There has to be an explanation, but it's beyond me.

I still say Rodgers was pouting week 1, gave the organization the middle finger. No way the Bucs score zero if all three of those guys don’t get hurt in the first half. But still, it is amazing how good that Saints D can look.

Great, didn't realize Butcher Mayfield was going to be out today.

was disappointed to see the Raiders winning = i had intended to switch my pick to them based on the QB outages, but just didnt get to it. then i looked it up and saw both SH and MK are also backing the Browns, but for more points than i had on them, so i've changed now to hoping i lose this one.

Yeah, that's why i was rooting for the Broncos yesterday. Everyone picked the Bengals but i had the fewest points on them.

Finally having a good week. 9-2. Only game I really missed was picking the Jags at home. Only an idiot picks the Lions.

you're such a jinx, besides the Seahawks losing whenever you watch, nobody has gotten a pick right since you posted this brag.

Good Morning!

Where is that? Edgar looks like he just rolled out of bed.

The new Sports book at EQC. Dude, you have three less wins than me but are kicking ass with total points. Interesting strategy paying off for you! Nicely done.

I've been conservative on my high-confidence picks (following the spreads) and liberal with the lower ones (i.e. picking upsets in games with smaller spreads). I don't know if that's an optimal strategy though for a low information player like me. I've missed on the vast majority of my upset picks.

If Lockett and Reed are out for today's game i'm going to have to flip my pick on that game and switch confidence points with the Wsh-Phi game. I currently have 9 pts on Philly and 5 on Sea.
