Good call on the queens/Lions game.

The stars had to be shining in the heavens. When I realized Brosmer was starting my heart sunk. Credit to the Vikings D. I hope they do not make a repeat next week.

****er missed. Myself and @AmishMafia react.

It won't accept the kicker's name.

For me that was the perfect set up. But they bubbled it. Get a stop and kick a FG and they win and I win.

I needed Chargers to get the ball back and score a TD last second. Damm it Jim!

That tipped pick at the end of the 2nd quarter at the goal line was a killer. Needed to come slowly with points.

 

[milani]

Didn't anyone pick the Ravens besides me?

Master of the NFC North thus far, unlike the Packers

The gods had this choreographed. They felt so sorry for the Bears that they waved the magic wand on them. The other three go home miserably.

Exactly. 7 TOs by the Lions? Campbell must be pissed. He's not gonna finish 8-9. That won't help the Packers anymore.

Jacksonville. A FG with 24 seconds left to take away my bingo.

Kickers either missing, or making field goals. It's hard to get a bingo.

Week 17 after 15 games.
@OldSchool101 is our top point getter so far with a 10-5 record and two spread bingos. @AmishMafia and @Raptorman also picked 10 of 15 correctly. @Voyageur still has the most correct picks, which will make week 18 interesting when we do the final points tally. No bingos and 9 spread bingos. @tynimiller, @Poppa San and @Albert Park all had two spread bingos.

Good luck on your your final 17 picks.

If you like drama right down to the final play, there were three games that provided that today. The defences, although rattled, were able to prevail in each instance. Games like this make the NFL must see sports viewing, along with great gobs of cash.

The Packers won't be playing their starters. They have no reason to. How many starters the Vikings play remains to be seen. The real question is does JJM play with a broken bone in his hand? I expect to see a lot of backups playing in this game.

JJ needs the reps but playing and risking more injury does him no good either. Even Aaron Jones is not 100% with his ankle. I suspect Tune will play with Willis as the back up. Let Wilson, Brooks, and Williams get the reps. See who is off the sick list.

Fun fact, if MN wins this game, and Tampa Wins their game. the Bucs will be 8-9 and win there division, and the Vike will be 9-8, half a game out of the playoffs. Gotta love the NFL.

Rip off. I agree.

NFL - Not Fair League
Guess they still have to get that SEC area NFC South representation.

Week 18 will lead to a lot a head scratching. Even more than usual, when we make our picks.

Please check your scores for accuracy. There may be mistakes in the above calculations. If there are any discrepancies in scoring requiring correction please let me know. I will forward them to the accounting firm of Pleasant, Funt & O'Farrell (PFO) who will audit your request. They really will.

Earlier today one of our players said he was going to bingo tonight. As it turned out, one of our players did bingo, but not that player. @El Guapo was the only player who picked a Falcons win, and he predicted the 27-24 score to boot earning 160 points for the week jumping up to second place in the standings behind @AmishMafia. However, things at the top are likely to change if @Voyageur can maintain his two game lead for the most correct picks on the season worth 180 point bonus. @OldSchool101 is two games back in that quest. Things are tight near the top. Week 18 might well be more exciting in this contest than it is in the NFL.

@tynimiller's extra sensories aren't very finely tuned. Nice job pickin' the dog.
