2-2 in the late games (fine with missing CLE, but seriously Ravens?).

SkinsJock · Post by **SkinsJock** » Sun Dec 02, 2012 8:56 pm

missed on 2 games that I switched .. but that's the way it goes ..

The Ravens play caller reminded me of Kyle - he has Rice carry 12 times for 78 yards and then in the 4th qtr, with the lead, he decides to let Flacco try passing the ball and basically cost the Ravens the win :roll:

I hope we see a lot of running plays tomorrow night :roll:

Felt awesome to pick Seattle. Detroit blew the Colt game like we did the G-men. Felt good about Cleveland, KC, and the Jets.

Had San Diego won I'd only be a game out. Monkey

You have nothing to worry about Tribe and myself. :wink:

It took 13 weeks to catch up with you guys. I thought that Chicago, San Francisco, Detroit and Baltimore LOST the games with poor decisions, which could have won. Kudos to Seattle, St Louis, Indy and Pitt which fought to the end. I do not regret my choices but those are the opportunities that may make the difference this year.

By the way ... chances are that two or more players may end up tied at the top in the end. Do we have a tie break agreed among ourselves this year? 8-[

The site does it automatically by your MNF score predictions. The three in frist place right now are in alphabetical order, because the Monday night game hasn't been played. On Tuesday, the pick grid will show the winners for the week with the tie-breaker in play. Wednesday-Thursday the grid is in season order reflecting the season-long tally of the tie-breaks. Even though it may say you're in first place, if another Hognosticator is listed above you, it is because he owns the season tie-break over you.

Posted all my picks past Tuesday. I am still struggling with ONE game:

St Louis at Buffalo.

I know better than to switch my pick now but I go back and forward on this one.

Otherwise, I feel pretty good about my chances overall. :wink:

Good luck fellas!

Made my pick; not switching; hope I'm wrong.

ACW · Post by **ACW** » Sun Dec 09, 2012 3:11 pm

Welp. 2-8 right now. I'm fine with missing TB and STL though. But even then 2-6.

ACW · Post by **ACW** » Sun Dec 09, 2012 5:41 pm

Ended up 5-5 in the early games.
Now 6-5 this week; average is only 5 :shock:

SEA and NYG will both win

Definitely a day for the underdogs.

Redskin in Canada · Post by **Redskin in Canada** » Sun Dec 09, 2012 9:52 pm

I am sure I picked the Jets to win but my score card shows otherwise. What happened? :explode:

The rest of my wrong picks are my responsibility though. :oops:

ACW · Post by **ACW** » Mon Dec 10, 2012 5:48 am

Well, got OAK, went 5-5 for the early games, then got the next 4 correct. 10-5 so far.

ACW · Post by **ACW** » Tue Dec 11, 2012 7:30 am

I picked NE

I did NOT pick such a massacre :shock:

You're on top with three weeks to go. Don't blow it!

Why...Why did I pick BAL?

ACW · Post by **ACW** » Sun Dec 16, 2012 7:06 pm

AND WHY THE ;furious;

DID I PICK BUF??!

ACW wrote:Why...Why did I pick BAL?

I did the same thing. At first I thought Ray Lewis would be back. Then I convinced myself that they wouldn't lose a third in a row especially at home. I knew I should have changed the pick when I found out Ray wasn't going, but I had a feeling, and I thought it would get me a game upon the rest of you. :roll:

But, they are going to smack the G-strings into the off-season next week. :twisted:

OK Tribe, two weeks to go, and you have a two game lead. Don't you go and blow it now.
