9-2 is pretty good for this crazy week

Packers losing to the Broncos is pathetic

 

[Patsfan1958]

I went 3-8 so far

But, at least I'm still alive in the "Suicide Pick 'Em" contest!!

Just rubbing it in...

I just can't get a bead on the teams this season. Reminds me a lot of 2008, 2011 etc...where there really aren't any dominate teams. It's truly week to week.

7-4

Better to be lucky than good.

LOL, I apparently got a little lucky this week. What's that they say about a broken clock being right twice a day? Sounds about right - my one week this year, if it ends up that way

Best of luck to @dtbrks and @Pats Fanatic who are also right there at 9-3. Double-check your score prediction in case we all end up tied, which will then obviously come down to the tie-breaker

Pretty smart to pick the week where everyone sucked to have a great week and move up in the ranks.

Impressive since it's been another brutal week for me. I did get the Pats game correct.

I am playing the Red Sox did

 

[dtbrks]

My 3-8 record speaks for itself.

Looks like Ian won at 10-3, so good work there.

On to week 8

 

[venecol]

Of course he did. Who didn't know there would be 8 underdog winners this week (he hit 6 of them). Now he magically jumped to #4 in the season standings. 90% were under .500, our leader comes in w/ a .769 winning %. Lol

LOL. I don't look at the betting lines, so I'm not really ever sure of who's favored, etc. But someone I used to work with once told me, "When in doubt, go with the home team." That one, I think, saved me on a few of them, albeit Atlanta got me. However, that strategy generally seems to work pretty well on games where I'm not really sure and it could go either way, so that's what I try and stick with.

But you picked the Jags (dog) not the Saints (home-fav). And you picked the Steelers (dog) not the Rams (home-fav). You also didn't pick the Colts (home-dog) but the Browns (favorite). You went 6-1 on Dog picks and 4-2 on favorites. That's 86% wins on dog picks. You know how rare that is?

The only honorable thing to do is to withdraw from the contest. Lol
