Dang, I better come up with something quick. Eeny, meene, miny moe. I'll take Seattle and give the 15.5.




Coinflip is owning you

Had to laugh when I first saw the score and it was 21-0 Bucs in the second quarter.

I didn't realize there was a game tonight. I caught the score as I was looking at a sports website, it had Miami up 7-3. I would have picked Cincy to win that one.


This is the most entertaining thread on the board. It's taken the worst start by the Vikings ever, of course. But I get a laugh every week, at least.

I guess it's:

DrViking 2
Ricky 1
Marty 1
Brad 1

That was actually my intent when I posted..... to put me down as the exact opposite of both of you


I wasn't trying to separately call you out

Redskins 41
Vikings 38

Ponder connecting on ONE deep pass would be pretty unusual...twice in one game would be downright miraculous. 

I don't see Ponder having a good game at all, I see the boo-birds coming out in droves with his first checkdown pass away from a wide open receiver.

so I predict somehow we win (hopefully with Freeman off the bench)

and our hopes of cleaning house with this staff takes a hit as well....

But we win!

1 to @ GB over Phil
2 to Miami over @ TB
3 to Det over @ Chi

Now, run to your bookies and bet the Panthers because I am as bad at this crap as any human on earth.

2 good rushing teams.
We will need to get some turnovers to win IMO.

Status: offline 		Brad, it's good to see you put your lock up early. I'm going to do the same. Anybody that wants to make a ton of money, you've seen how accurate I have been, go load up on Philly.

I'm taking GB -1 over Philly, that is my lock.

I don't know why I didn't of it sooner, I could have jinxed GB a long time ago. I think GBs players will rise up, their defense will play well, Lacy will run all over Phillys' poor defense, special teams will probably get a TD. And I think Wallace might even look respectable. They have a good passing system, just get the ball out to Nelson and Jones, even if they are covered.

You asked if you should switch to GB, Miami or Detroit, I assume, as those were listed first.

I recommended to you switch to GB, keep TB and Chicago, unless Cutler is playing, then switch to Chicago.

 Seattle is a tough place to play.
It is our toughest game of the year IMO.
Can we in up there?
You bet your sweet bippie we can.
In 2012 we lost 20-10 and Ponder had less than 100 yards throwing.
We need some real strong OL blocking to get it done.

Let's not get too excited.  Seattle's defense is a bit better than the Redskins and Cowboys. 

We will struggle to move the ball, whoever is QB will probably struggle...

We're going to suck.
