the nfl 11-12 prediction thread

[Care]

^ Falcons have yet to impress me this year. I picked them to win the supwebowl out of the gates but I hardly consider them to be a top tier team atm. Im guessing Detroit embarrasses your offense, especially with Jones being questionable and Whites case of the butterfingers.

Then put on ur seatbelt n dress to be impressed cuz thats whats gonna happen

 

[alasdairm]

^ you'll forgive me for being less than impressed when you make a bold claim?

IMO SD is gonna embarrass the jets in their own house. Im pretty torn on was vs car, sea vs cle and chi vs tb.

the jets are horrible.

 

[axl blaze]

Cleveland will beat Seattle... both are bad teams, but Seattle is a very bad team

 

[China Rider]

china rider, talk us through your thinking for the st. louis pick - were you just going out on a limb so you could look like a genius if there was a totally unexpected upset or did you see something in the matchup that we didn't?

i'm a rams fan and am convinced they can win on any given sunday

if there was a cash prize in this competition, i would have selected GB, no doubt

and yeah it would have been sweet if STL won, so i coulda been like ayoooo in yer faces, losers!

awesome. if you keep picking the rams and gm keeps picking against new england, that will help the rest of us every week

too bad the bills are playing so well

can i still get in on the crazy train?

 

[Methadone84]

can i still get in on the crazy train?

only if u pick Falcons to win

 

[DrinksWithEvil]

SD > NYJ - the Jets offense is terrible. should be an interesting game, but if the Jets get destroyed by the traveling Chargers, New York is going to start chattering about Rex and Sanchez. lets go BOLTS!
SEA < CLE - i'll take the Browns
ATL > DET - awwwww fucckk. this should be a very good game. i hope the Falcons stick to running the ball and the D can stop the Lions pass, but i doubt it, so it should be a great game.
WAS < CAR - i'm predicting Cam and the Panthers winning this one at home. Redskins are starting Beck who doesn't have an NFL win, and they have no clue which RB to give the ball to, but i'm interested to see because i have Torain/Hightower in most of my FF leagues lol.
CHI < TB - should be a good game. pretty much a 50/50 pick
DEN > MIA - the Tim Tebow era has begun!!! i think he's going to win, but it will be really interesting to watch. he'll either get a win and become Jesus or go down in flames, by losing to the Dolphins and be crucified when he returns to Denver.
HOU < TEN - exciting match up of RBs in this game. the Texans are injured pretty good and i don't think they'll be as good as predicted. i think the Titans are better than expected and they're starting to get their shit together. i'll take them at home.
PIT > ARI - i'll take the Steelers
KC < OAK - the Carson Palmer era has begun in Oakland!!! i'm curious to see how he performs since he's been inactive for 10 months lol. they take on KC, so i think their D and run game keep them in the game enough for the Raiders to win it.
GB > MIN - the Christian Ponder era has begun!!! too bad it's against the defending champs and he's probably going to get shit-stomped lol. i'm interested to see how he does though.
STL < DAL - holy disappointment! the Rams are terrible. they made a move and got a WR this week, but it's not going to help that much.
BAL > JAX - Jags suck
IND < NO - Suck for Luck? lol. i think they'll get a win somewhere, not this week though.

yo drinks with evil

alasdair has got a serious stick up his ass about formatting:

also, please copy the list from somebody else so the format and order are always the same - so much easier to score that way. if you choose to use a different format, your scores will not be included.

alasdair has got a serious stick up his ass about formatting:

why is it every year i get shit about this?

seriously, you try scoring this for once? is it really too much to ask people to use a consistent formatting to make the thankless task of scoring this every week a little easier?

sigh.

alasdair

 

[Pegasus]

^It is appreciated, and the formatting does make things a lot easier.

 

[Pander Bear]

seconded, it is appreciated, and I'd DREAD scoring it w/o standardization— its just that the penalty seems draconian.
