 Just wondering if we're going to do picks this year. Another question, will TS make it through the whole season?

Hi, nana.

You know I'm always in for picking games.

 

As far as TS being around all season--wouldn't eBay just pick up the whole thread

and plop it down somewhere else?..and hopefully let us know where?

O.k then, I'll start us off, since the first game is tomorrow night there's no time to lose.

 

HEAR YE HEAR YE! TS 2016 NFL PICKS CONTEST IS OFFICIALLY UNDERWAY!

 

Very simple rules, I'll post the Week 1 games in the next post, and you can copy it. Picks are for game winner only, no points spreads. You can make your poicks by using BOLD or ITALICS on your team choice, or just list your winners. Play either just for the week or hang around all season for the year's total. In either case, the prize is unparalleled prestige.

Hi everyone. I played here with you at the end of last year (with a different ID).

 

Kind of guessing here by how they played last year and by a few changes to 

the teams....otherwise, I have no clue!

Carolina at Denver...QB Mark Sanchez is now with the Cowboys, so the Broncos are going

                                     with some no-name QB until Paxton Lynch is ready.

 

More picks before Sunday.

 

Yay, nana!  I was starting to think we weren't gonna play this year. As usual, I'm having

technical difficulties--I'm posting this from a public computer--so I hope to have things

resolved before too long. (I have Vista and am running Internet Explorer 9, which eBay

informs me they no longer support...but I'm told by the Microsoft site that I have the

current version for Vista, so..?) My previous post was the last one I could manage.

 

Also...

Here's hoping blackbird shows up before Sunday's kickoff!

Hopefully T.S. will survive one more season. I'm a bit pressed as always, but I'll join you guys for the post season.

 

Some say that that's the easy time, since historically the home teams wins over 75% of the time in post season, but in the last few years, that hasn't been the case.

Carolina at Denver…Broncos 21, Panthers 20--stupid FG kicker!!

 

Green Bay at Jacksonville…hunch pick; Jags are loaded on defense

Buffalo at Baltimore...Rex Ryan wonders why McDonalds calls their burrito a ‘snack-wrap’

Chicago at Houston…this is supposedly Jadeveon Clowney’s breakout season--we’ll see.

Cleveland at Philadelphia...needy Browns used 5 of 14 draft picks on receivers (??) 

TB at Atlanta…Falcons lost both games vs. Bucs in ‘15, but had better overall record

Minnesota at Tennessee…Bridgewater tore his ACL, so Vikes acquired Sam Bradford

Cincinnati at NY Jets…Bengals started strong last year, winning first 8 games

Oakland at New Orleans…the Raiders drafted a guy named Jihad  Smiley Surprised

SD at Kansas City…in 2015, Bolts were 4-12; Chiefs won 11 straight before losing to NE

Miami at Seattle…unfriendly venue for Adam Gase in his debut as an NFL head coach

Detroit at Indianapolis…rumor has it that nobody on Colts’ defense scares anyone

NY Giants at Dallas…rookie QB Dak Prescott starts in place of injured Romo

New England at Arizona…Tom Brady sits at home, feeling somewhat deflated

 

Pittsburgh at Washington…uhh, could go either way

Los Angeles at San Francisco…Lambs lost several good defensive players to free agency,

                                                     then used 5 of 6 draft picks for offense; I saw Jared Goff

                                                     play here at Cal…great passer, but seems kind of frail

                                                     physically. The 49ers had 11 picks and really spread them

                                                     around, position-wise. Chip Kelly might do better than

                                                     some expect.

TS NFL Picks Contest

 

Week 1

 

Carolina     at   Denver   I would have picked the Panthers b/c they want to get even, and the Broncs are w/o Manning.  This is was a textbook example of BARELY losing the game.

 

Green Bay at   Jacksonville

 

Buffalo      at   Baltimore

 

Chicago    at   Houston Da Bears stink this year.

 

Cleveland  at   Philadelphia

 

Tampa Bay at  Atlanta

 

Minnesota  at  Tennesssee

 

Cincinnati  at  NY Jets

 

Oakland    at  New Orleans  Raiders have improved the last couple seasons.  Saints look like they've lost ground to me.

 

San Diego at  Kansas City

 

Miami        at  Seattle

 

Detroit       at  Indianapolis

 

NY Giantts at  Dallas

 

New England at Arizona Cards should take the NE Cheaters sans Brady.

 

Pittsburgh    at  Washington

Lambs at 49ers    Niners suck this year and will be 5-11 at best.

blackbird made it in time!...glad one of the regulars is still with us.

 

Also welcome back to big.crybaby (you used to be cloak*and*swagger, right?)

 

Participation in the NFL Picks thread is UP a staggering 33% from last season. Boo-yaw.

 

Some interesting games on Sunday...the Raiders, with less than two minutes remaining vs.

the Saints, scored a touchdown--and instead of kicking the extra point and sending the game

into overtime, elected to go for the two-point conversion and the lead. They got it. The Saints

missed the long field goal attempt as time ran out....Speaking of missed field goals, Chandler

Catanzaro (Cardinals) joins Graham Gano (Panthers) as two kickers who will not be receiving

Christmas cards from me this year...

Welcome back Blackbird! The week 1 data for the Big Football Database (The BFD) has been entered and rechecked. CyyBaby and I tied at 11 wins, and Mark and Blackbird were just one back at 10. Good scores, looked to me as if home team was a big factor this week.

 

I'll have Week 2 up in plenty of time for Thursday's game.
