three losses aint a bad week imo

i was more upset with the fact these teams didn't win than i was the fact that i personally, 'lost'

this pick'em and dick'um thing is just a game

NFL is real bro, it's fucking REAL

the Niners are good, but any team can be good for 8 games

you play in the NFC West

try playing a team like the Ravens twice a year, and then in the playoffs

Niners will get my respect when they earn it. Walsh is dead, after all

We have only played 2 division games so far this year so the "NFC West is weak" argument doesn't really hold water at the moment. If you take away the week 10 win vs the cardinals the 49ers were on a 7 game winning streak outside of the division. The niners have beaten good teams this year. The fact that they lost to a tough Ravens team on the road on a short week with some tough calls that took points off the board does not take their legitimacy down much. The only other loss this year was to the cowboys, who were down by 14 in the fourth quarter against us. If our secondary hadn't allowed like 200 passing yards in the 4th quarter and overtime we would have been undefeated coming into week 11.

I understand why people tend to doubt a team that hasn't been good for a while, but when you look at this season I dont think you can really make a case that the niners are not a top-5 team in the NFL right now. Unless a NFC team (other than the packers) runs the table for the rest of the season we are pretty much guaranteed a first round bye in the playoffs.
 
i'm editing this post because PB posted it under my account while drunk and it looks fucking weird as shit every time i see it, especially because i told him to change his pick from SF to Baltimore because i knew Baltimore would win, not just because they were at home. plus, it was obviously not bitchy enough to be a Ken post.

My picks are looking pretty good so far. I might have been the only one that picked Washington, but that was kinda offset by me picking Chicago when almost everyone else went with Oakland.

I was surprised to see that I had picked Denver, so was relieved to see I got that right now that I'm looking over my picks.
 
ya man, you've been doing better since you stopped trying to pick crazy black swan upsets. :) I am Happy to ride the denver and 'zona train to the winner's circle this week again. (that's not true, somebody has only missed one this week so far)

are you sure, TommyBoy? i'm pretty sure all those Tebowists out there can give plenty of reasons as to why they can beat Minnesota. their game against Atlanta had deceptively close scores.

yea, probably not, but i figured...fuck it.

if anyone can put points on their D it's Eli. Figure...home game plus pissed off team plus Eli Manning, might equal an upset over the pack.
