Thanks! My first time winning a week!

I've been playing NFL pick'em for a few years in other groups and this is by far the most enjoyable and most competitive.

Happy Holidays :)

Thanks! I look forward to this more than any other 'contest' we have going. Don't complicate it with spread or anything crappy like that...

Although next year, I am gonna throw in a bit of a twist....

Every week we will either select or let you select a game that will be the stone cold lead pipe lock. For example, one game a week you pick a game and say this one is a can't miss.......and we will keep track of how you did in that regard, too... I just need to figure out the logistics of it.

Atlanta at Tampa Bay

Buffalo at Cincinnati

Dallas at Carolina

Detroit at New Orleans

Jacksonville at Houston

NY Giants at Washington

Pittsburgh at Cleveland

San Diego at Kansas City

San Francisco at St. Louis

Tennessee at Miami

Philadelphia at Arizona

Indianapolis at Seattle

Oakland at Denver

Chicago at Green Bay

Minnesota at Baltimore

New England at NY Jets - 45

:angry: damnit !!!!! :pinch: :pinch: :cry: Stupid stupid stupid stupid roughing the kicker penalty!!! Man we had the freakin game won! gah! Great way to ruin my Christmas Dallas!!!!! :crazy: @!7%($*>_< :angry:

doing a little better than you D!ABOL!C I have 4 wins :wacko: :wacko: :p

:D

Actually, they may have ruined your year. If they lose to Atlanta next week....it's bye bye playoffs.

Since everyone picked the Pats to win tomorrow, it all comes down to the points, and it's a close race.

You all get +1 win when if the Pats win tomorrow.

This week's games...in no particular order:

New England at Denver

Washington at Seattle

Carolina at Chicago

Pittsburgh at Indianapolis 55 points

'date='Jan 9 2006, 12:27' post='587040143']

I like that Denver pick BOOG. (Y) ;)

Well, this weeks picks in my opinion are easy.

Denver doesn't lose much at home, and NE's win over the Jags shouldn't be viewed as all that impressive. The Jags aren't a real good team.

Seattle won't have any problem with Washington....which is the worst team ever to make it into the playoffs.....ugh...what an ugly team.

Carolina Chicago is the toughest of all....depending on which team Carolina chooses to be.

Indy's pretty much going to beat anyone they play.

The last game is Carolina at Chicago, BOOG. Not Pitt-Indy. Pitt-Indy is the early game on Sunday.

Also, the Redskins game is before the Patriots game.

My picks:

Washington at Seattle

New England at Denver

Pittsburgh at Indianapolis

Carolina at Chicago- 30

This week's games...in no particular order:

The game for the points is the Pitt/Indy game. Not the Chicago/Carolina game.

You can't really pass me, though. Because I missed the first 2 weeks, I own the tiebreaker over everyone. I think your best bet is to predict 75 points, hope it happens, and hope I predict like 30.

That's where you are mistaken, yisman-san. Tiebreakers were for people in it from week one. ;)

    • BATorrent 3.0.3 is out.
    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with ad blockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Samsung Browser'. It has very little bloat and is a nice-looking web browser with an inbuilt 'Ad blocker'. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. This browser can also install Chrome extensions. I have a system wide Ad blocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the web browser, but over the whole system. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt ad blocker because of that.
