Upset of the week has to be the Bengals over the Bills.
SF over Philly takes a close second, to my delight.

i say easily 49ers over Eagles. I still dont think Bills are a good team. They beat Patriots last season until their player fumbled the ball on the kick return when all he had to do was fall on the ground and they woulda won. Division games are always close for some reason
 
^theyre decent, but their defense is suspect. I dont see them making the playoffs with the jets and pats in their division, but they're at least out of the gutter now. I think they will easily finish above .500.

Well Jets look really bad so they may finish #2. i think Bills will finish with 7-8 wins.
 
First post eek! gotta start somewhere.

Irish guy here but love watching NFL. Super Sundays.

I put 100 euros on the Packers to win the Superbowl @ 5/1 before the Broncos game. I cannot see a team out there that will stop once playoffs start. Rodgers getting hurt is the only thing that can stop them, in my early opinion
 
That seems like a smart bet to me today, but man... a repeat? There' so much parity in the league, the chances are slim. It could make you a rich man though ;). Greetings and welcome.

Thanks. True, chances of a repeat are pretty slim. I only did the bet so i'd have something to look forward to for the year. When i did the bet the Patriots were the same price! Honestly i nearly fell down laughing. I mean i like the Pats going forward but when the defense takes the field they look really suspect. I'd rather take the Ravens, even with the problems Flacco might face. Rice is a shining light in that offense though
 
^ The lions are doing well this year, but their road to success is very slippery. Stafford is breakable, most of the plays he's been injured on in the past didn't look like anything significant at all, yet they were season enders. If you take him out of the equation I don't think the lions will be able to hang with good teams. Not to mention they are in a division with the packers and the bears, and they have a rough schedule at the end of the season. Calvin Johnson is a freak though, most valuable receiver in the league hands down.
 
^They have shown some amazing courage and mental strength so far to still be 4-0 but the Vikings and Cowboys embarrassed themselves and threw away games in ridiculous fashion. I hope for Staffords sake he gets to complete a season though. Sacked 5 times against the Vikings he was lucky to come away unscathed. Hes exciting to watch and even more so with Calvin Johnson performing and answering critics. Really looking forward to seeing how effective Suh and Fairley become. Thats got amazing potential. Lots of fines coming for them too!

Hey Alasdair, you forgot to add some wins to my column.


I'm sorry to trouble you, and you are my hero for doing this whole scoring thing, but I gotta say something, you dirty, dirty cheating bastard ;)

I'm 43-21, by the way, unless my drug and McDonalds addled brain is fucking me up on my maths.
