Official Predict the Score Contest: Week 1, KC @ NE - New England Patriots Forums

***alamo*** · 09-04-2008, 02:30 PM

Welcome to a new season of the Predict the Score contest!

Post your predictions here for Week 1, Kansas City Chiefs at New England Patriots.

This contest is open to everyone, it's both a weekly and a season-long contest. Stakes are bragging rights.

Each week I will tabulate and post the scores for the previous week's contest, as well as the cumulative season standings for those who have played every week. As a one-time allowance for computer problems, forgetfulness, or whatever, a week can be missed any time before the final week and will be assigned that week's average score.

Scoring:
Your score is the COMBINED deviation of your predicted score for the Pats and opponents REGARDLESS OF DIRECTION. For example, if you predict Patriots 27 Chiefs 10 your score is how many points off of 27 the Pats are (over or under does not matter) PLUS how many points off of 10 the Chiefs are (over or under again does not matter). Lowest score wins.

You may change your prediction at any time before kickoff either by editing your original post or by adding a new one. Predictions made in other threads don't count unless they were clearly meant for this contest but were posted elsewhere by mistake. Exception: All predictions made in the unofficial thread posted earlier stand, you are free to keep them or post a new one.

Please keep this thread to predictions only, no back-and-forth discussion of the game. A short comment explaining your pick is OK.

Good luck!

New England 23
Kansas City 17

Maroney,Morris and Jordan carry the load, saving a injured Brady for the next game against the Jets and ground it out in a quick 2 1/2 hr game for the win
