NFL Week 9: Pick the Winners

NFL Week 9: 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 9, 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 9 Games:

N.Y. Jets vs. Buffalo
Oakland vs. Carolina
Dallas vs. Cincinnati
Washington vs. Detroit
Arizona vs. Miami
Philadelphia vs. Pittsburgh
Kansas City vs. Tampa Bay
Chicago vs. N.Y. Giants
New Orleans vs. San Diego
Seattle vs. San Francisco
Houston vs. Denver

I've noticed a recent trend in the past weeks. When Avatar picks the Bengals to win, they lose. And when he picks the Bengals to lose, they win. What's up with that? I just noticed this because he's been pretty vocal about their crappy play this year. So if this "backwards" trend continues, the Bengals should win this week since Avatar picked them to lose.

I'll make my picks tomorrow, but I'll be sure to pick the Bengals.

I haven't realized that ... if it holds up this weekend too, I'll pick them to lose from here to eternity.
