NFL WPC '11 WINNER: Mercy

[Steeler]

idk i'm doing alright right now. there were a lot of evenish matchups this week, shit vs shit or good vs good... p sure i have caught up to kd though, hope i'm first after all is over!

 

[DM]

haha, I was tanking on purpose with my picks and I'm not even alone in being terrible this week

 

[yond]

Oakland @ San Diego
Arizona @ Philadelphia
Tennessee @ Carolina
Houston @ Tampa Bay
Washington @ Miami
Jacksonville @ Indianapolis
Denver @ Kansas City
Buffalo @ Dallas
New Orleans @ Atlanta
St. Louis @ Cleveland
Pittsburgh @ Cincinnati
Baltimore @ Seattle
NY Giants @ San Francisco
Detroit @ Chicago
New England @ NY Jets
Minnesota @ Green Bay

Yes, that just happened. Yes, I'm dead serious. And yes, I picked the Chargers before last night's game, I'm not going to lie.

orly DM????

also im something like 8-6 so hopefully i can finish out ok

 

[Blindy McBlind]

7-7, fuck this game. And the Ravens, bad snap on Browns, Panthers, Manningham, Eagles, bad 4th and inches Falcons, and Rivers.

 

[WaterBomb]

eh I might end up 8-8 which I am perfectly happy with at this point.

 

[Killah]

Because not a single person picked Minnesota, I went ahead and updated the standings!

I'll wait a couple days before making fun of you suckers, but Mercy and porygon3 doubled several of your win totals through today at 10-5 apiece. The top got a lot tighter as well, with Steeler grabbing the lead at 98 wins with Mercy/kd24 right behind him with 97.

Better luck next week!

[Shinryu]

Watch as the Vikings pull off the impossible and you have to go edit everyone's scores down 1 game lol...

Oh well, it was a suckass week for predictions. This week doesn't look nearly as bad imo.

 

[Blindy McBlind]

Wow, maybe it wasn't so bad, I actually moved up a spot!

NY Jets @ Denver
Tampa Bay @ Green Bay
Carolina @ Detroit
Jacksonville @ Cleveland
Oakland @ Minnesota
Buffalo @ Miami
Dallas @ Washington
Cincinnati @ Baltimore
Arizona @ San Francisco - to be honest i cant see them pulling two upsets in a row
Seattle @ St. Louis - good run defense vs bad run defense
Tennessee @ Atlanta - matt ryan is 22-5 at home
San Diego @ Chicago - phillip rivers < jay cutler
Philadelphia @ NY Giants - vick and maclin are out so im 100% sure of this now
Kansas City @ New England - PALKO!!!

wish i had got on in time to edit the buffalo game to miami :( i had a feeling itd turn out like that. now im sure of the rest of the night however!!

 

[Flamestrike]

NY Jets @ Denver (Tebow surely can't keep winning. 2 for 8, what the fuck...)
Tampa Bay @ Green Bay (Green Bay just keeps rolling on)
Carolina @ Detroit (Bounce back game for Detroit and man do they need it)
Jacksonville @ Cleveland (Cleveland isn't a difficult team to shut down)
Oakland @ Minnesota (Tough call but Palmer seems to be figuring it out and the Vikings haven't been that great)
Buffalo @ Miami (Another bounce back game, this time for Buffalo)
Dallas @ Washington (As much as I'd like to see the opposite happen Dallas is much, much better than Washington)
Cincinnati @ Baltimore (Baltimore's going to be roaring back after an embarrassing loss against the Seahawks, plus the Bengals may not have Green)
Arizona @ San Francisco (The 49ers may yet give GB a run for #1 in the NFC)
Seattle @ St. Louis (Seattle simply isn't nearly as good on the road)
Tennessee @ Atlanta (Don't look now but Atlanta is starting to find their game)
San Diego @ Chicago (Rivers will throw a bunch of picks, fumble a snap, and even hand the ball to Forte to let him run all over them)
Philadelphia @ NY Giants (Time to put the final nail in the Eagles' coffin. GO GIANTS!)
Kansas City @ New England (KC couldn't even beat Denver when Tebow went 2-8. Imagine against Brady)

 

[-RatCheesy]

NY Jets @ Denver (***THURSDAY***) (Denver can win but the Jets will retaliate with a dominating win.)
Tampa Bay @ Green Bay (Green Bay will annihilate Tampa Bay with 30-40+ points.)
Carolina @ Detroit (Cam Newton will struggle again, Detroit will win in a close game.)
Jacksonville @ Cleveland (Blaine Gabbert is below average QB so MJD will run all over Cleveland.)
Oakland @ Minnesota (Palmer is finally showing some spark in the offense so he'll keep it going.)
Buffalo @ Miami (Miami is gaining confidence from two good weeks, Bills have lost composure.)
Dallas @ Washington (Romo should have an easy time throwing the ball and Murray rushing over 100 yds)
Cincinnati @ Baltimore (Baltimore can win but I have a upset here, we'll see.)
Arizona @ San Francisco (San Francisco will have fun toying with the Cardinals but it could be close.)
Seattle @ St. Louis (Seattle is not a road team, Stephen Jackson will run all over Seattle's defense.)
Tennessee @ Atlanta (Atlanta won't let another loss at home, Tennesee has a great chance to win.)
San Diego @ Chicago (San Diego will turn things around, Chicago will struggle on offense this game.)
Philadelphia @ NY Giants (Philadelphia is a disgusting team to watch, Giants are clearly better.)
Kansas City @ New England (8-3 will be the end result for the Patriots, so easy win.)

[Nozizaki]

NY Jets @ Denver
Tampa Bay @ Green Bay
Carolina @ Detroit
Jacksonville @ Cleveland Jacksonville has a pretty good defense and can probably just win on that.
Oakland @ Minnesota
Buffalo @ Miami
Dallas @ Washington
Cincinnati @ Baltimore
Arizona @ San Francisco
Seattle @ St. Louis Killah is probably right, home teams in the NFC West.
Tennessee @ Atlanta
San Diego @ Chicago I can't afford an upset pick after last week.

[WaterBomb]

NY Jets @ Denver - Sorry Tebow, not this time
Tampa Bay @ Green Bay - What's wrong with TB this year?
Carolina @ Detroit - Detroit needs this badly
Jacksonville @ Cleveland - Last time I pick Cleveland ever if they lose this
Oakland @ Minnesota - Upset pick I guess?
Buffaro @ Miami - Buffaro got embarrassed last week, please rebound
Dallas @ Washington - "Orakpoed"? Really?
Cincinnati @ Baltimore - Since Baltimore only brings their "A" game to division rivalries...
Arizona @ San Francisco - lawl
Seattle @ St. Louis - Seattle sucks to predict
Tennessee @ Atlanta - I'm not buying CJ's "breakout"
San Diego @ Chicago - I think it's time for SD to get it together
Philadelphia @ NY Giants - Ugh eagles
Kansas City @ New England - Who is the Chefs QB again?

 

[Steamroll]

I knew I did absolutely horrible this week...
NY Jets @ Denver - Tebow is probably the weirdest QB ever. Whatever the hell is making their offense work will probably not work effectively against NYJ
Tampa Bay @ Green Bay- Are you kidding?
Carolina @ Detroit - Cam cannot carry that team any longer. Meanwhile Detroit will end their slump.
Jacksonville @ Cleveland - Jacksonville has beaten a few playoff contending teams, what has Cleveland done?
Oakland @ Minnesota - Carson Palmer has the third highest QBR this season O_o and #2 is out for the rest of the season.
Buffalo @ Miami - Break up with a Kardashian, play like a champion. so far that theory is 2 for 2.
Dallas @ Washington - Washington must like Fleetwood Mac, because they're in a landslide right now
Cincinnati @ Baltimore - One loss to Seattle isn't the end of the world, Cincy has been very easy to handle lately
Arizona @ San Francisco - NFC champs probable #1
Seattle @ St. Louis - Surprise playoff run maybe?
Tennessee @ Atlanta - Chris Johnson got 100 yards rushing on one of the worst rush defenses in the league. too good to be true meanwhile Atlanta gave New Orleans a run for their money.
San Diego @ Chicago - NFC champs probable #2
Philadelphia @ NY Giants - Face it, the Eagles might as well try and trade something for Luck.
Kansas City @ New England - New England's defense will be the fall of them, but they should be able to outscore KC

more picks coming later, the ones not bolded are a toss up right now

[-Tsunami-]

Bit late for the competition, but might as well predict anyway.


Schedule: Week 11

NY Jets @ Denver (***THURSDAY***) (TEBOW!)
Tampa Bay @ Green Bay (It's the Packers...)
Carolina @ Detroit (The Lions are slumping; Cam Newton gets his rhythm back and takes this)
Jacksonville @ Cleveland (Worst matchup of the week? I think so. Jags take it because the Browns are just beyond terrible)
Oakland @ Minnesota (Raiders have this easily; the Vikings pass defense is just awful)
Buffalo @ Miami (Dolphins for 3 in a row!)
Dallas @ Washington (Cowboys just finished decimating the Bills, while the Redskins just finished losing 5 straight, including a loss to the previously 1-7 Dolphins)
Cincinnati @ Baltimore (The Ravens seem to do well against good / decent teams)
Arizona @ San Francisco (49ers are a legitimate title contender, while the Cardinals are just bad)
Seattle @ St. Louis (Rams have a bit more talent)
Tennessee @ Atlanta (Falcons won't lose twice in a row, especially to the Titans)
San Diego @ Chicago (Bears have finally found their groove)
Philadelphia @ NY Giants (I think we've all seen that picking the Eagles is just dumb)
Kansas City @ New England (Chiefs don't stand a chance, especially in Foxborough and without their QB)

 

[Killah]

NY Jets @ Denver - You can't go 2/8 passing against the Jets and expect to win!

Separating posts in case I want to change a pick later

 

[Killah]

Tampa Bay @ Green Bay - 16-0, nuff said
Carolina @ Detroit - Panthers on the road for the next three games plus five out of the next seven. Detroit should win easily if they decide to have a balanced offense.
Jacksonville @ Cleveland - Gabbert's gone over 100 yards passing just once in his past three games, but I can't justify picking Cleveland ever again. They're really just that bad.
Oakland @ Minnesota - As much as I think Minnesota will bounce back in this game, the facts are that Oakland shredded San Diego and got a long week to prepare for this game, while the Vikings have a short week after playing on Monday.
Buffalo @ Miami - The Bills hate continues ? Reggie Bush's rushing statistics before Kim Kardashian's divorce: 60 for 235 yards (3.9), 0 TDs, Dolphins go 0-6. After: 42 for 242 yards (5.8), 3 TDs, Dolphins go 2-1.
Dallas @ Washington - I've been defending Romo all year, and about the time I get tired of it he has a perfect game.
Cincinnati @ Baltimore - Cincinnati performed better than I expected them to last week, but they're still a distant third in the division.
Arizona @ San Francisco - John Skelton for the win? Hmm... nah
Seattle @ St. Louis - Why don't we take ALL the bad teams, and make them play each other!
Tennessee @ Atlanta - They may have lost the game (as did you) on a questionable decision, but they outperformed the Saints last weekend and showed the caliber of a playoff team.
San Diego @ Chicago - Chicago has only lost to three of the hottest teams this year, to the Saints and Packers early and to Detroit in the middle of their offensive streak. One might say that San Diego is not a hot team.
Philadelphia @ NY Giants - Philly allowed Skelton to throw for over 300 yards with the best three cornerbacks in the game? They should probably promote the ball boy to be the new defensive coordinator, can't be worse than the O-Line coach!
Kansas City @ New England - Embarrassed by Miami two weeks ago, by Tebow last week, and now you get to travel to New England on Monday night! Good luck, Chiefs!

 

[Blindy McBlind]

NY Jets > Denver (Yeah, Tebow's not running through that defense.)
Tampa Bay < Green Bay (Packers 16-0 for sure.)
Carolina < Detroit (Both teams were shit last week. Let's see which one shows up this time.)
Jacksonville > Cleveland (I'd rather the Jags make the playoffs than the Titans. Go Jags!)
Oakland > Minnesota (Tough one, but Palmer looked pretty good last week.)
Buffalo > Miami (They've definitely fallen from grace, but they should still be better.)
Dallas > Washington (I guess the rib protection hindered Romo that much? Nah, he'll probably fuck this one up somehow.)
Cincinnati < Baltimore (Cincinnati is a good team and division rival, so Baltimore will actually try.)
Arizona < San Francisco (Patrick Peterson for the win? Nope, San Fran's got this.)
Seattle < St. Louis (Rams have more talented players. Again, I feel sorry for whoever gets this on TV.)
Tennessee < Atlanta (Fuck Titans. Falcons at home should have this one unless they do something retarded.)
San Diego < Chicago (Bears gonna win the whole damn thing!)
Philadelphia < NY Giants (Honestly I hope the Giants lose so the Cowboys can catch up, but it's very doubtful.)
Kansas City < New England (Lol Chiefs. Maybe the Pats got their defense together.)

Looks pretty easy. At least I get Turkey Day before having to watch Houston again.

Jets > Broncos, unless Tebow can work up some crazy juju again, I don't see it happening.

Rest incoming later.
