NFL Week 7: Pick the Winners

Hey NFL fans! The "Pick the Winners" game returns for its fifth season at this board. For those who have played before, you know how the drill goes. Newcomers: this is a fun and easy game to play. For each week of the regular season, all you have to do is pick which team you think will win each match-up and then place a point value on that game. For example, there are 14 games in Week 7, and it is your job to allocate points from the game you are most confident in (14 pts.) to the game you view as a toss-up (1 pt.). Therefore, points will be allotted in decreasing value from 14, 13, 12...all the way down to 1. *Remember, you CAN'T place the same point value on more than one game.*

At the end of each week, we will tally up the number of points each participant has earned based on correct predictions, and the person with the most overall points at that time will be crowned winner. We will also keep track of the weekly winners to determine the season champion. Sound simple? If you have any questions, feel free to post them at this thread.

Week 7 Games:

Atlanta vs. Kansas City
Chicago vs. Tampa Bay
Jacksonville vs. Indianapolis
San Diego vs. Carolina
Tennessee vs. Minnesota
Dallas vs. Green Bay
Seattle vs. Arizona
Buffalo vs. Baltimore

Re: NFL Week 7: Pick the Winners

Just thought I'd add this:

Season-to-date points standings:
Superhero - 477 (.659)
Chi159 - 466 (.602)
sf3000-447 (.591)
Avatar - 441 (.557)
Hot Rod - 430 (.614)
Uh Blah - 427 (.568)
BB - 411 (.534)
Wildfire Girl - 381 (.622) [74 games]
Shaolin - 354 (.597) [72 games]
Carmelo Anthony - 191 (.625) [56 games]
TMoney - 163 (.714) [28 games]
Angeli_Dean - 70 (.643) [14 games]

Check it out. Everybody is over 500. Not bad.



Now for my picks for week 7...

Week 7 Games:

14 -- Atlanta vs. Kansas City
3 --- Chicago vs. Tampa Bay
1 --- Jacksonville vs. Indianapolis -- I hate to pick against the Cardiac Cats, but
8 --- San Diego vs. Carolina
9 --- Tennessee vs. Minnesota
5 --- Dallas vs. Green Bay -- And I always hate to pick the Cowboys
12 -- Seattle vs. Arizona
10 -- Buffalo vs. Baltimore
7 --- Detroit vs. NY Giants -- I've got a hunch about this one.
6 --- Philadelphia vs. Cleveland
11 -- St. Louis vs. Miami
13 -- NY Jets vs. New England
4 --- New Orleans vs. Oakland
2 --- Denver vs. Cincinnati

Wow, Superhero! We should call you Mr. Stats Wiz.

Thanks for going to the trouble of computing all that. I was too lazy. And, yes, an above .500 record from our group is pretty good.

Look at that, I’m second place in the overall standings but have yet to win a single week. That has been the story of my life when it comes to this game.

That's OK. I have the most points AND the best overall record, and I haven't won yet either. In fact, out of the top 5 in the points, there is a grand total of 1 weekly win (Avatar in week 1).

What? “Wiz” doesn’t have a good ring to it?

I cannot imagine why not.
