Welcome to the annual NFL pick'em contest! It's named in honor of its longtime
host, nanapong1 (Rick). Each week of the NFL season we pick who we think will win,
and the player with the most games correct is declared the winner for that week.
The player with the highest cumulative total of correct picks at the end of the
18-week regular season is declared that year's winner. All comers are welcome!
(Not only is it lots of fun, but it promotes interest in NFL football--therefore
stimulating sales of football equipment, jerseys, collector's items and other
related fee-generating merchandise.) So heeeere we go!
Nanapong Memorial NFL Pick'em 2023 RULES
---For fun and bragging rights only!
---The games will be posted each week, you can just copy/paste the list into
your reply, then boldface, italicize or underline your picks...or just list
your winners, whatever. But please make your choices very clear.
---Picks are straight up, not against the line (you just pick the winner, not the
points.)
---Your picks must be posted before the start time of each game, minutes count.
---After Monday Night Football, everyone's score, the week's winner and YTD
standings will be posted.
Give it a try! The more the merrier. You really don't need to know much about
football--the favorites are readily available, and they often win.
mountolimpus is the reigning champ...who will win this year??
I'll post Week 1 shortly.

Sept. 7----Kansas City

Detroit at Kansas City...last-second switch; Chiefs may be without DT Chris Jones, and
TE Travis Kelce hyperextended his knee in practice; Mahomes is
5-0 as a starter in Week 1 games--time for streak to end?
More picks later.
p.s. Welcome back, wvmart! 😀

@wvmart good to see you!!

Last year's players have returned...good!...welcome back!!
Just wanted to bump the new thread back over the old one, and
make a final plea for some new participants before today's kickoff.
They say that the leading cause of death among adults is retirement
--people tend to stick around when they are expected to show up
to complete a task. I would imagine the same holds true for picking
football contests over the course of an entire season. Therefore, by
taking part in our annual competition, you're almost guaranteeing
yourself a longer, happier life! that's my story, and I'm sticking to it

Come on Park dwellers.....join in.
Don't even have to watch a game!
I got a C in high school chemistry because the tests were multiple choice.😁
Test your guessing IQ......😄

WEEK 1
Detroit at Kansas City...Detroit 21, Kansas City 20
Tenn at New Orl...Saints resemble 2021 Raiders! (QB Carr, TE Moreau, WR Edwards, S Abram)
Tampa Bay at Minnesota...Bucs not what they used to be
Arizona at Washington...Cards might be NFL's worst team in 2023
San Francisco at Pitts...another switch; Bosa signs for $170 million, decides to earn it
Cinci at Cleveland...Burrow is 1-4 vs. Browns, in Week 1 of 2022 had 4 INTs vs. Steelers
Carolina at Atlanta...Panthers' pass rush rattles QB Ridder; Bijan may run for 100
Houston at Baltimore...newly-paid Lamar or unproven rookie C.J. Stroud? easy choice
Jacks at Indi...no Jonathan Taylor, so it's Deon Jackson at RB; Jags only getting better
Green Bay at Chicago...Jordan Love has something to prove; Pack's defense better overall
Phila at New Engl...so, it's 'Tom Brady Appreciation Day' at Foxboro...🤢burrrp splat
LARams at Seattle...Lambs don't have WR Kupp; Seahawks might win NFC West
Miami at LAChargers...upset! Fish look good, Bolts' HC Staley still looks confused
Las Vegas at Denver...when will QB Garoppolo sustain his annual season-ending injury?
Dallas at NYGiants...arrival of Trey Lance has to motivate Dak
Buffalo at NYJets...no Von Miller for Bills; MetLife littered with giant foam cowboy hats
