Alamo's Predict The Score Alamo's Predict The Score Contest: Week 4

[Tony2046]

Post your predictions here for Week 4, Tompa Bay Bucks vs 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, one week can be missed 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 24 Dolphins 23 your score is how many points off of 24 the Pats are (over or under does not matter) PLUS how many points off of 23 the Dolphins are (over or under again does not matter). Game winner 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. 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!

Ian is working behind the scenes to get this game caught up. So keep posting your predictions.

Thank you Alamo for keeping this game going for so long and even still.

Surprised I'm the first poster and it is one of the first times I have picked against the Pats, but I don't think they realistically have a shot. That said I expect them to open the playbook a little more for Mac and maybe some of those passes finally drop in.

Thats because you are on a patriots board. I am sure the same people said the pats were going to kick the Saints ass last week.
After a quick check, yep, in fact they had the pats blowing the saints out. Funny thing, a lot of people had the pats in the 30's and the saints at 13, so they got the numbers right.

But anyway picking a score. I will say Tampa 27 Patriots 19

I'm sorry, I'm in the "take that, Bill" camp on this game. I think TFB comes out very happy to make us look very bad, and it's on us... and on avacadovid... to stop him.

And God bless 'em, may this be the week that the D becomes what we thought they were. But for now,

TB 41
NE 13
