Welcome to the 23rd season of the NFL "Pick the Winners" game here at the sports board! For those who have played this game before, you know how the drill goes. If you are knew to the game it's pretty simple. During each week of the season, there will be a thread posted with that week's slate of games. It is your job to pick the winner of each match-up and place a point value on it. This week there are 16 games on the schedule. You would allocate your poi ts from the game you are most confident in (16 pts.) to the game you view as a toss up (1 PT.) * You may not place the same point value on more than 1 game. It should be decreasing value from 16 to 1*

At the conclusion of each week, we will add up the total points, and crown a "Pick The Winners" champion. Over the course of the season, we will keep a list of the weekly champions & a running points total and/or most weekly championships will be crowned the season winner. Sounds pretty simple right? So join in! If you have any questions feel free to ask them here.

Remember you must have your picks in by the posted deadline listed, so make sure to double-check to make sure you are correct before then. Also, once the deadline passes, your picks are locked in.

Really important to get picks in before the deadline each week the entire season , as the NFL expanded the Thursday Night schedule to almost the entire season.

If you miss Thursdays deadline or double pick the same game, only that pick will not count.

Again, double-check your picks to make sure that you have all the teams you want to pick & the numbers 1 to 16.

Jaguars defeat, New Orleans

canflam

Darn. I was expecting that game to be close & it was. The Saints clearly have improving to on defence. Gave up a 44-yard touchdown pass late in the 4th quarter.

Logan

So far the biggest upset is the Patriots had the lead gave it up, only to score last second touchdown to win the game over Buffalo. At some controversial calls in the end zone Cleveland beats Indianapolis.

Thanks. Some questionable calls in at least a few of yesterday's games. The Colts & Rams got burnt on some bogus calls I think.

Logan

Even though I bet for Buffalo , I don’t think I could’ve taken another week I sports radio in Boston if the patriots lost .
And next weekend I’ll be at a Casino $$$

canflam

Have a good time. Minnesota has an early 7-point lead on San Francisco.
