Okay, my son and I just joined. It looks like fun. The Survivor game could be cool, too, especially if I last longer than Week 1. I hope I don't forget to make my picks each week. :(

Alright. Those guys are going to need some help so I joined too.

Not that I actually have any clue of what's going on! :pound:

With Darth Tater signed up, I feel semi-confident that I won't finish in last place each week...........

Great! What's neat about the setup is you help your group compete, but at the same time compete against each other. Thanx for coming aboard.

You might want to kick me off the team if I keep going 7-5.
I take my football picks seriously!

I did worse than you did. I have to admit, I screwed off last week. My bad. I did some research this week when making my picks. We'll see if that makes me do better or not....

At least I picked a new team for Survivor this week. There was one guy on there that tried to pick the Colts 2 weeks in a row. :pound:

PistonsForum has moved up in the group standings!!! We are now 5th out of 11 groups with a 62.8% rate.

Our standing is being helped out a lot by my 13-year-old son who is currently in 1st place out of over 130 people. He has managed to pick 36 out of 48 games correctly for a 75% accuracy rate. Maybe I should take him to Vegas....

Don't do it Bill! What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. You don't want Bill Jr. to come back without his good luck!

That average would be even higher if I wasn't dragging us down with my .469 average. :gun1:

I shoulda known. He seems to chew people up on the Fantasy threads.:hungry: :pizza: :yukpuke:

I'm in...and I picked the Lions. :sssh:

Can I change my login name to Dain Bramage?

I thought you had until 1pm to change your picks...? I switched my pick to Cleveland around noon, but it shows I picked Baltimore. :yellowprison:

10-3 baby! Hopefully Dallas can pull it out tonight.

I picked them to win and need 1 point from their D to beat bezeach in our match-up.

Speaking of gloating, I am one of only 7 people left in the Survivor game.

Yesterday's pick: Washington (it seemed too easy)

Don't forget to make your picks! :)

The Piston Forum team is not too far out of the running. We just need a couple of solid weeks. Come on guys. Let's represent pf.com with pride.

PF.com is moving up!...no thanks to me...I had a crappy week 7 :( Even the Lions surprised me.

Sorry...I gotta go with the Bears in week 8.

Wow, I picked 8 road teams to win and only 6 home teams. I might be in trouble tomorrow.

You guys are WAY WAY WAY off...I picked 9 road teams! :MusicBigGrin:

HEY!!! PF.COM has moved up to 6th place! :)

Don't you think some of those Lions teams might be a little embarrassed when The Pistons forum takes one of the top spots at the end of the season? :stirthepot:

Oh...and you other guys aren't doing too bad either ;) We just have to get Nemo to start picking the Lions occasionally :nerd2: :sssh:

I picked the Lions against the Cardinals this week.........I'll also take them against the G-men next week........They'll be 8-2....:)

I picked the Lions against the Cardinals this week.........I'll also take them against the G-men next week........They'll be 8-2....:)WOAH!!! settle down there cowboy!...take one week at a time :MusicBigGrin:

we're doing better from .621 to .630

What a crappy week of picks...lots of surprising results.

I'm guessing the percentages for all teams are gonna fall this week, but PF.com might have the upper hand because of so few players. PF will drop in percentage, but might move up in team standings to #5 or better. Coynejeremy & Tater are leading the charge for the good guys.

Hey Nemo...thanks for picking the Lions! :yellowprison: :pound:

Hey Nemo...thanks for picking the Lions! :yellowprison: :pound:

I just realized - I must have had some really bad picks the first few weeks, then I lost interest. Let me try to improve my average these next few weeks, and I think that may help the team a lot, seeing as how I am about in last place percentagewise (still about 59% though).

GO PISTONSFORUM!!!!!!

WOW, we dropped from .630 to .621 in 1 week.
we suck.

I had picked the Giants a few days ago, but drank some Lions Kool-aid with lunch and changed my pick to the Lions 15 minutes before game time :frusty:

:bump2: Just a heads-up to make those picks before the Lions turkeys get fried tomorrow.

Bad news...PF.com has dropped to 9th place :(

Bump

Chicago at Washington Thursday night.

we suck as a group with Jamm as the suckiest. down to .605

My picks have been so bad that I stopped picking in order to keep our group percentage from dropping any further.

My picks have been so bad that I stopped picking in order to keep our group percentage from dropping any further.

I think I missed a week or two, but I had planned to stop picking too just because I was getting bored with it. I checked in today, for some unknown reason, and was reading about how the site meant so much to the guy who runs it and how he appreciates each and every one of us. Then he said it's one of his few pleasures on the internet.

So I felt kind of bad and I'm going to try to finish out the season.

When Nemo is the group leader, then I know we're in trouble........
I'll be staying on since the Lions should be easy to predict.....

Actually Beer I'd like to see your picks so I can have something to laugh at.
Like somebody using D Garrard as his QB in the PFFF playoffs. He was never explosive enough.

Actually a good week of picks for the Forumites...7 out of 8 of us made predictions and 6 of us did well. Our range for the 6 of us was 10-4 up to 11-2. All of these above .700 percent. Hopefully, we move up in the standings.:)

Up to .619 wooooo...

I completely forgot the two pre-Sunday games this week :frusty:

This is probably easiest week of picks so far this season. That said, I'll probably go 7-7 tomorrow & Monday:pound:

FOUR Forumites out of the seven playing week 15 made the top 25, lead by TheeTFD tying for first with only one other player at 12-4. Unfortunately PF.com's % stayed the same, but now only .001 behind Ozark's team going into the last week.

WOW !...
Ha, only Nemo has made the top 25 the last 3 weeks.
Tate went 13-3 once and won.
How about one week we all pick the same teams.
Blow everybodies mind.

Just don't let Tater be the one who decides. That was a brutal week for ya, Darth. :pound:

How about one week we all pick the same teams.
Blow everybodies mind.I'd considered sharing intell & perspectives in prior weeks in hope for a PF.com conquest but figured diversity could save the team from shooting it's foot off. Now...with two weeks to go...we don't really have much to lose. Whatchu guys think?

Bears often own Pack. Like Wash and Dallas. Record doesn't matter.
You'll find to do good at this you need to pick a couple of upsets a week.

I have the same picks as you. I will be picking against the Lions though.
Season only gets uglier as the lockerroom becomes splintered with disappointment, and one big rock in everybody's way..........

Same as Thee except I have GB over Bears and the Giants over the Bills on the road (weather permitting - the worse the weather, the more I like the Bills. I might change this one before Sunday).

Even though the Saints still have an outside shot at a wild card, I'm having second thots about them against the Eagles. The Saints have been inconsistent, the Eagles have a winning road record & the Saints have a losing home record. I'm doubting Bush will play since Stecker has had a couple decent weeks filling in. I doubt Brees will put up the numbers against the Eagles that he did against AZ.

Any thots?

More controversy this week with McNabb. He was quoted by Pam Oliver as saying that he's leaving Philly and will be on a winner next year (or something like that). When confronted, he denied the story. McNabb is ending a good career with the Eagles. I don't think he'll be back. Many may not want him back. I say he goes out with a whimper........

All right, last week of season we all chose the same teams.
we all fall together

TFD: there's two weeks left...I had forgotten about the bye week myself.

Since these were the only games brought up for scrutiny, what is the final concensus on:

Packers @ Bears
Chiefs @ Lions
Giants @ Bills
Eagles @ Saints

My 2 cents are Packers, Lions, Giants, Saints, but I'm cool with whatever the group decides.

My 2 cents are Packers, Lions, Giants, Saints, but I'm cool with whatever the group decides.I concur.

After reading GB wants the #1 seed & homefield, I have to go with Favre playing more than just a half...I'm good with the Pack.

After much contemplation...I'm okay with the Lions.

Unless Buffalo gets two feet of snow tonight (not gonna happen, they're predicting a hi of 56 degrees and sprinkles for tomorrow)...Giants.

The Saints better play if they want to even have shot at the WC...Saints.

I saw this thread after picking my teams. Who do you want me picking tomorrow? Let me know and I'll change my picks.

Well, we're 2-0 so far, let's go for a perfect week!

Ok, I change my mind. I'm going with the Bills. :nerd2:

Giants are down 14-0 after 2 possessions.

I've been out of town the last few days. I'll join in next week. Sorry.

Giants have tied it up. I'm going with them again.:MusicBigGrin:

OK this is the last week:
I'm good with NFC teams but avg. with AFC.
Sat. Pats want 16 and 0
ATL---home
Wash---just because
Det---just because I'm a homer
Cinn.---no clue
Chi---just mean
Tenn---??? hungier ???
Hou---fav by 4 ??? Jack sewn up playoff
Pitt---???
Phi---still fighting ??? under anyone?
Car---TB resting ?
Cleve---large !!
SD---large

Ari---home
Jets---still swingin'

Coynejeremy said he was in, but didn't pick at all :writersblock:

Tater got in the game late...8-6 :jail:

Bill gets a free pass after not playing for a few weeks.

Bill's kid gets a free pass too because he's not on the forum AND went 12-4 this week :D

Jamm, Falcs haven't quit and Sea is Div winner. The Colts are resting too.
Chiefs ?? that one I have issues with. Lil' Leon Wash will mess the Chiefs up.
Boys got nothing to play for. Why are the Texans fav'd by 4? what's up with that. It's a trap.
Anyway whatever our concensus says I'm in.

Jammer, I've only got 4 different from you so far. We should probably get Nemo and my son to pick these games since they have been excellent this season.

Jammertime, my son has the Bengals, Bears, Broncos and Chiefs in the games that we differ.

He picked the Redskins to beat the Cowboys.

This week is looking like a crap shoot. I hate the last week of the regular season!

I'd say the Bengals, Bears, Vikings and Jets........

So it looks like we're going with Bengals and Bears, but the Vikings vs Broncos and the Jets vs Cheifs are still undecided.

Thee, Bill and Nemo say Jets while Bill's son and I have the Chiefs. If no one else has an opinion, it looks like we'll go with the J.E.T.S. Jets, Jets, Jets.

Nemo and I say the Vikings while Bill and his son are going with the Broncos. So we have a tie unless someone else breaks it.

There's a Saturday game but we all agree on the outcome of that one, so we have until just before 1pm Sunday to make our choice for the Vikings v Broncos. I've already changed my Chiefs pick to the Jets.

I'd say the Bengals, Bears, Vikings and Jets........I concur on those. But I'm thinking Redskins & Titans.

I concur on those. But I'm thinking Redskins & Titans.

I could go either way on Cowboys-Redskins.

I could go either way on Cowboys-Redskins.One of the most famed rivalries in the NFL...in DC on the last weekend. Dallas has homefield wrapped up and has little to play for. The Skins can get the wild card by just winning.

The Colts-Titans game is the same situation, except the Colts are at home. Colts have nothing to play for...Titans get the wild card with a win.

Well, you've convinced me d-team. I'd rather take the "win and in" team over the one that has nothing to gain or lose.

Well, you've convinced me d-team. I'd rather take the "win and in" team over the one that has nothing to gain or lose.That's my thinking too.

The Skins also have a big emotional element going on with the passing of Sean Taylor. TO won't be playing and I doubt Romo sees even a half.

Redskins are on a mission and I'd like to see them win. Just don't know if they have the players to beat Dallas. Still a big rivalry for both teams. Starters will want to win this one........

Todd Collins is the Skins QB. He's been on the shelf for 10 years but in Saunders system. 3 straight wins. He's the friggin RipVanWinkle of the NFL. Harrison is back for Indy and he should see time with Manning. But still I like Tites.
Can we pick our Sat game only and come back for the Sun games?

here's the Friday summary:
Pats go 16 and 0
Skins, no T.O. and Romo weak thumb.
G.B. cause the Lions are weak.
Cinn, too much firepower for Fins
Chi over saints, Beers boy better get with the system.
Tenn, in a mild upset. They play Indy close always.
Pitt, just too good
Phi, works for me
Cle
SD
Minn
Ari
Jets
that leaves Atl. Hou and Car
Car or TB works for me, but this is Car's playoff game.

I think the Bucs want to finish on a winning note before the playoffs...and the game is at home. Same with the Seahawks but on the road...who wants to start the playoffs after losing to the Falcons? Texans have the best shot of the ones you mentioned and are at home.

could've done 13 and 3

OK the playoffs:
can't go against the Steel Drapes at home
Wash - on a mission
Giants
SD
-
P.S. I thought we all did the final for last week.

Jaguars - Redskins - Chargers - Buccaneers............

Bucs at home can't handle Gmen.
Jags QB isn't explosive enough to handle Rothsburger.

Pretty cool! 5 of us were in the top 15!

It doesn't look like they've updated the team standings yet, but we had to jump up 1 or 2 slots.
OK, let's keep at it.

Bucs at home can't handle Gmen.
Jags QB isn't explosive enough to handle Rothsburger.

Bucs have the #2 Defense in the NFL....
Giants have the #16 Offense in the NFL, and the wrong MANNING.....

Steelers have #1 defense in NFL, BUT.......
Jags have the #2 Rushing Offense in the NFL........somethings gotta give....

We need all of us to go 4-0 this week. Let's get this correct.

Playoffs are more tricky. Will we be able to reach a consensus? I'm not sure since I feel the Packers will win it all............:stirthepot:

Jags are healthier.
Bucs offense is worse than ours. Gmen almost beat Pats.
You can make the call Nemo but if your wrong...no say next week. Fair ?

I was hoping to hear from Jammer and others since we disagree on two games..........:)

My first inclination is to go with the Steelers, Seahawks, Chargers and Bucs, but I don't know if all 4 home teams will win this week. There has to be an upset game somewhere.

I noticed that you both have the Skins beating the Seahawks, but I think I'm going to have to go with Seattle in this one. The Skins have the Taylor tragedy as motivation, but I still like Seattle's 7-1 home record and playoff experience against the 4-4 Road record and Taylor-less secondary of the Skins.

The game I'm most on the fence about is the Giants vs Bucs game. The Giants (Manning) play much better on the road than they do at home, compiling a 7-1 ROAD record compared to a 3-5 home record.

I have to work tomorrow and 2 of the 4 games will be played while I'm at work. So I'm going to tentatively put down all 4 home teams as my picks and if we are able to come to a consensus before I leave for work, I'll change them to whatever we decide.

This is my last post befor Sat.
Sea and Jags with the upset?

I'M BACK from Thailand. Sorry guys.

Lets do this playoff thing.

I think we have to go for the Steelers, the Jags are getting overhyped imo.

I agree with Jammer's comment about the Skins-Hawks and would like to choose the Seahawks at home.

The Titans don't resemble an NFL team right now with all those guys out. Chargers win.

My gut says to pick the Giants. I think I've been wrong on the Giants a number of times this season, but I just think they pull it out this time.

So:
Steelers
Seahawks
Chargers
Giants

So the votes so far are:

Steelers iii Jags i
Seahawks ii Skins ii
Chargers iiii Titans
Giants ii Bucs ii

Nemo TheeTFD Jammer and I have weighed in with our opinions.

The Giants-Bucs game is tied, but Jammer actually seems to feel more strongly that the Giants will win, so if we change his vote to the Giants, the only tie is Seahawks-Skins.

Someone else needs to give us their vote to break the tie, otherwise, maybe we should go with the home team, which would be the Seahawks.

So I am voting Steelers, Seahawks, Chargers, Giants, until someone can break the ties or convince me otherwise. Sound good to everyone?

Actually Garcia has beaten the Gmen 3 times in the Playoffs.
But not this time.

I don't know, I'm still firmly on the fence on the Giants/Bucs. :MusicBigGrin:

As of right now, I have the Bucs in the Picks game.

I saw that earlier tonight. Garcia has had the Giants' number. I'm still leaning slightly towards the Bucs in this one. The experience of Garcia and Gruden over the mistake inclined, inexperience of Mini Manning. All things being equal, tough to pass up home field advantage in the playoffs (but that Giants road record is impressive).

Oh decisions, decisions!

Well, I'm willing to go with the majority. I don't have strong feelings either way. I'm changing to the Bucs, for now, unless someone has a compelling argument otherwise.

So the votes so far are:

Steelers iii Jags ii
Seahawks ii Skins iii
Chargers iiiii Titans
Giants ii Bucs iii

There's my two cents...sorry it's late. Jags & Skins winning away and Chargers & Bucs winning at home.

For a guy with a big --S-- for his Avatar.........I like your choices.:)

That means I need to change my bucs pick.
PISTONSFORUM.COM UNITED
your going to hear it Monday if your wrong....

nevermind I can't change now....

How about everyone get in here by Weds. so we have time to adjust?

How come I was the only one to pick the Seahawks and Jaguars? You guys need to jump on board!!

Nice job Bill! ;)

Bad first day......three went 0-2, four went 1-1, only one was 2-0.....:stirthepot:

Bucs down by 10 headed into the 4th...they have to force Eli into a mistake.

At least we were all smart enough to pick the Giants today....

:stooges:

At least "we" were all smart enough to pick the Giants today....

You must have a mouse in your pocket. Four of "us" picked the Bucs.:frusty:

i might join soon
but i been busy lately

I'm gonna go out on a limb and pick a pair of mind-blowing upsets:

Jaguars-Patriots
Seahawks-Packers
Chargers-Colts
Giants-Cowboys

Unless the weather forecast for Boston changes in the next couple days, I think the Jags have as good a chance as anyone of taking out the Pats. I confess...I wanna see the Pats go down...ditto for the Colts. :gun1:

Patriots and Colts are automatic wins, in my opinion.

The Giants have a chance to beat the Cowboys, but I'm going with Dallas.

The only road team to win this week will be Seattle.

Feel free to copy my picks. I was 4-0 last weekend, after all....

You had a good weekend, Now It's my turn.

New England will spread out the defense of Jacksonville and Brady will hit for well over 300 yards of passing. Jacksonville front 4 will not be able to pressure Brady. 31-21......New England

Green Bay just won't lose to Seattle. They look good but my gut tells me that Favre and Lambeau will outplay The Seattle coach and QB returning for a visit. 28-24......Green Bay

The Colts are getting better injury wise and have that date with destiny (New England) so you cannot count them out. LT can be stopped on the ground and Dungy is just the coach to do it. 37-28......Colts

My upset pick is the New York Football Giants over the Cowboys. TO is nearing a meltdown and the Cowboys have been inconsistent the last few weeks. Romo has the fumbled snap from last years playoffs on his mind, and his new sweety to cloud his brain. 21-17......G Men.

Pats, Cowboys, Bolts, and Packers to win.

All the Home teams are 7-14 point favorites in this weeks games. They are rested and ready to go. Wow...the Bolts......so close in spelling to the Colts..........must be a Freudian slip........or could San Diego be a team of destiny?:)

I meant San Diego. :MusicBigGrin: I think the Colts may not be as "charged up" as the bolts. The Colts won it all last year...

Yea, I can't see more than one road team winning.

Yea, I can't see more than one road team winning.

You're right on.......
I figure the magic this weekend is picking the right upset. There should be only one........if that. I see Romo having two bad (unlucky) playoff seasons in a row.

With Jessica Simpson's press team reporting that she will NOT be at this weekend's game, I don't see how the Cowboys can lose. I'll take Dallas.

I agree with Nemo's picks. I'd say that the G-men are the only road team to win this week.

So, you're saying I was lucky to go 4-0 last week? :fight2:

Sorry I didn't get to switch to Jags and Hawks last week. 2 of us would be perfect.
This week:
Romo, Barber, TO and the gang to strong. Boys..24-20
Favre...28 - 17
Pats what's new...26-20
Manning the 2sd with Harrison and Wayne...kiss it goodby Norv...35-21
I'm not taking final say since I blew Jags and Hawks last week but both of those teams could've won with 4th quarter luck.

So, you're saying I was lucky to go 4-0 last week? :fight2:



I :hail: to your skill from last week. You certainly deserved the :nod: for this week. My picks though deserve a :good:. You are due to :falloff: after such success last week. Being :second: isn't so bad though. I just feel my picks are a :lock1:, that's all........:)

Problem is...... my :lock1: smilie turns into a :crying: if I don't do well. I'm hoping for 4 of 4 this weekend to claim :victory:. I will try not to brag if I do, but it will be hard to resist just :nerner:. With that said, I will look :stupid: if I am wrong. I do not feel the need to :nailbiting: yet, but if things don't go well, I'll be ready to :puke: . I just love predicting these type of weekends where the outcome looks :noidea:. With a :sweeping: this weekend, I'll be ready to be annointed :king:. Good luck.....:)

Make your predictions........

Pats, Cowboys, Bolts, and Packers to win.

So far so good...

7 of 8 played this weekend. 6 of 7 picked the first two correctly. We go in different directions today.

I'm starting to rethink my Giants pick. I've got about an hour left to change it.

Should I go with both home teams today and no upsets at all this week?

That's what I did.
That was what I was originally thinking, but then thought that there would probably be one upset this week. Now I'm thinking there won't be. I think I'm going to change my pick.

Nemo is not swayed........G Men and the Colts today.........:)

I shoulda trusted my first instinct and stuck with SD...congrats to Tater.

Chargers played their Super Bowl today. Dungy was outcoached today. He never adjusted his defense. When the new QB came in and drove the field, I knew it was over. San Diego had the refs against them but they still won. Good game by the Chargers. It's a shame they'll have nothing left (injuries, exhaustion) for the Patriots........

Ready to declare my picks for the Super Bowl..........
Patriots -vs- Packers

I'm going to wait one more week to give my picks for the Super Bowl.

Ready to declare my picks for the Super Bowl..........
Patriots -vs- PackersNo doubt...Chargers & Giants are toast. Brady vs Favre will be a fun game to watch.

That's what I did.
Gee, thanks for your help dteam.:stirthepot: :pound:

Gee, thanks for your help dteam.:stirthepot: :pound:You're welcome. But if you'da listened to Nemo & Tater (from opposite sides of your brain), you coulda been 4-0! instead of wearing a tutu like me :sssh:

Hey, how about a little reseach next games, if I had known Colts were 0 and 5 after a bye and the Bolts had beaten them 5? straight at Indy, I would've liked Bolts.
Maybe
One guy voted for Favre as MVP, the other 49 gave it to Brady. If they match up for SB ?? it will be soooo Cheesy.
Pack and Pats........again.

My upset pick is the New York Football Giants over the Cowboys. TO is nearing a meltdown and the Cowboys have been inconsistent the last few weeks. Romo has the fumbled snap from last years playoffs on his mind, and his new sweety to cloud his brain. 21-17......G Men. qoute NEMO
All wrong but right.
TO had his QBs back. They say he paid for the trip to Cancun.
They had nothing to play for for the last 3 weeks.
Dude,,,did you nail the score? far f'ing out !!!

Thanks for reminding me..........Still thought Dallas was inconsistent in the game against the Giants. They out gained the Giants by over 100 yards and had 10 more minutes of posession. Dallas became a different team in the 4th quarter, allowing QB pressure and untimely penalties and miscues. The head coach had no answers. My best pick of the playoffs so far.........

This is what happened with the Lions and Pack a few years back. Lions couldn't beat them 3 straight times. With home field adv.

That was Brett Favre's first playoff game. We played them the last game of the season and then the first game of the playoffs. Both games were at the Silverdome. We beat them the last game of the season without Barry. Team thought they were a lock the following week with Barry back. We had an 11 point lead when they came back and then won it on a hail mary type pass at the end of the game. Sterling Sharpe was left wide open on the play.

On an across the grain pass of course. QB's are taught not to do that.

The way to really improve the forum standing in this game is by "Tatering".

If you get a whole bunch of new people (Slippy, Roscoe, etc.) to join the picks game and we all pick the same team to win the Super bowl (e.g. New England) I would imagine the percentages would jump up a bit. :MusicBigGrin:

What are you saying, add some dummy/space filling contestants?

No, ask them to join for one week, and then it is legit...It will only take them a minute to click N.E.

I'm thinking the game host must have a provision to prevent that (like not letting anyone join now), but maybe not...? It wouldn't hurt to try, especially since there's probably a few other teams thinking of doing the same thing.

I have been within 4 points of the right score and predicted winner in 17 of the last 19 super Bowls!!

My best year: When Bears beat the Pats 46-10. I predicted 45-10!
My worst year: New England beating st Louis when i predicted Rams 48-17!:pound:

this year...(drumroll)

pats 42-giants 14!!!!!!!!!!!!

I gotta factor in a couple field goals in the 1st half:
