    ----------------------------------------------------------------------


    I did something that I've never before done--I looked at the standings to help me make a three picks. I usually check the standing on Tuesdays, but I've never had to refer to them for making picks. The really good teams, and the really bad teams, are easy to remember. It's the mediocre teams that stumped me.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    GOD could catch or pass Borla, but Borla follows the NFL pretty closely. I'll be lucky to finish with a 10-6 records :(.

    If anyone else has difficulty because of my delayed posting.
    Simply put up your one pick for tonight's game...and add the others at your convenience later, before Sunday's starting games.
    Again, my apologies.

    ----------

    Ok, we only need @ZombieSquirrel of our typical players for tonite's pick.
    the rest are in

    Most...even the experts from I'm seeing around the web. The bookies are crying for now.

    I'd guess the bookies are just fine. The point spread and/or moneyline is set to get equal action (or close) on each side, so no matter what the house takes the vig and wins. They don't build all those fancy buildings in Vegas by merely guessing right on football games. :D

    OK gang. I'm done mulling this over.
    'Zona gets my nod, though I really think they'll eventually slip up.
    ATL just sucks. Falcons/Bucs is the stinker game of the week.
    Dolphins/Lions is a pick-em. The O-line v D-line battle will settle it. I'm a homer on this one.

    Oh AFC North....you're just fucking things up for everyone.

    I love love love LOVE that Pittsburgh lost. To the JETS! I should have gone with my hatred for the Steelers and not the numbers.

    If my quick glance is correct, @rogue49 beat my via tie-breaker. I was second closest on points for MNF, but he was closer. If I'm right, congrats.

    Very close week folks.

    Ok, everyone balked at the beginning, with the Bengals losing to the Browns....

    There was a photo finish, with three of us needing to use the tie breaker...myself, @Borla & @ZombieSquirrel
    The Eagles came out front quick and it was a game of numbers...with the MNF score sum being 66
    ZS had 46 down, Borla had 49 down and I ended up winning with the closest guess of 56 (Yay, me. :cool:)

    @grumpyolddude came in "2nd" having picked up TB and lost. ;)
    @ChrisNoyb came in next, with @ralphie250 bringing up the rear of the pack.

    Over the peak for the season and starting downhill for the race to the end.
    It's starting to go back & forth as our players find their rhythm & pace and trade places each week.

    BTW ZombieSquirrel, ref rules you don't have to say anything nice to Borla since you tied with him this week. :p

    Unfortunately, the Falcons picked this week to pretend to be a real football team.

    Congrats and stuff.

    I see as many as 10 games that could go either way. One unlucky bounce....
