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.

The Rules

Guess the score of each team for each game...
Each game you pick the correct winner of: 5 points
If you pick correctly on at least half the games scheduled for the week earns a 20 points bonusl
If you pick correctly on at least 75% of the games earns a 40 point bonus (plus the previous 20 points).
If you get all but one of the games correct nets 100 bonus points (plus the 20 & 40 from above)
Guess right on all the games and enjoy an additional 150 points (plus the previous 20, 40 & 100)
If you pick a game score in which you pick the winner and the correct margin of victory, you will get 25 bonus points. We'll call this a spread bingo or a mini bingo.
And ..... If you guess the correct winner and score of any game: 125 bonus points tacked on for each correct game. (You will not receive the 25 spread bonus with a Bingo) This is known as a score Bingo.
If you've got incredibly mad skills and happen to guess every correct score of every game: you get a mega jackpot of 5000 points (Lotsa luck with that one.)
At the end of the regular season the player, or players with the most correct picks over the regular season will receive 180 bonus points, or a split of that amount. In the event of a points tie the win is awarded to the player with the most correct picks.


All are welcome to play, and good luck to all!

I'm going to split my picks this week. Too many injuries out there to pick the Sunday and Monday game this early. So, here goes with the Packers.

Green Bay 27 Atlanta 17

My only fear is that the Packers don't put pressure on Penix and he ends up beating us with crisp passes. He's got a good arm and has the potential to beat us deep if we aren't pressuring him. On offense, it's time to start using Love's feet to our advantage, by using rollouts instead of waiting for the pocket to collapse on him and take hits. Le Fleur has to do this until the offensive line gets itself in sync.

Yes. An early foray into AI. I think i searched most common NFL score in the last 5 years. This was before the start of last season. But mostly I did it to make it easier on you for totaling up the scores.:whistling:

Not sure where this one stems from. It may be the Orange Crush ghost. It may be tge Elway legacy. But a lot of it is just this jinx that hits teams when they play there, particularly NFC teams. How many times has the NFC North won in Denver? Rdc

Rest assured now. I fell into temptation. However, I will pick the Packers opponent every week the rest of the way with the possible exception of Miami. Or if some team at the end has it clinched and sits half their team.
This season is appearing more and more like the 4-12 - 2005 Packers. Moderate expectations going into the season but it turned out that the only bright spot that year was #4. No matter how bad a squad that was assembled around him the man fought to win just as hard as he did in the SB year. Did not point fingers.
I had hoped we could win 7 games this season but unless several teams have a letdown and ignore us this could be 3-14.

You nailed it with Penix. He and Robinson and London had career games. I didn’t see that coming with how well the D had played.

So Whelan is the sole stud. Says it all.
