fka the Suicide Pick'em Contest... The only Unofficial Contest® left standing... Last year was interesting- largest field in the games history...

The Original Contest was an epic turnout - 70 contestants, and a dynamic tough field, with the winner being crowned in Week 14!!! Redemption picked up in week 9, and ran through the wildcard round!... Truly, it was a great turn out, much more people than I expected... and you mofos were tough outs! ... Hoping to build on that this year!

The Contest is Open to everyone who is a poster on these boards...

This year, starting sign ups a bit earlier than we have in the past... Sign up runs thru the start of the last game of week 1 (MNF 09/14, 8:00pm) ... To enter, just Post a reply in this thread, and you're in...

The early games are difficult to predict. For the 1st few games my go to is the Magic Eight Ball.

Thanks again for the time and effort @Pape

I'm going back to the undefeated system that I abandoned last year and then immediately lost.

Give me the Chargers please.

 

[1960Pats]

So far, Bal, Chi, Cin and Sea were each picked by one player.
NE, Phi, Phi and Ten were each picked by two.
Two teams, Det and LV, were picked by six players.
The Jags were picked by eleven players and the Chargers by sixteen.

Good luck to all.
