NFL - Week 17

[WIMUSKY]

Well, this is it folks, final week of the regular season.........

We have 3 players still in contention. However, it's Lost In Georgia's to lose with a 5pt lead. PSU Homer and bassman have their work cutout. They're going to need to take some chances if they want a shot at the Championship.

The rest of us are history and are playing for pride. For some of us, pride went out the door weeks ago......:laugh:

Week 16 saw 4 payers with 14pts!
1) Lost In Georgia
2) PSU Homer
3) The Admiral
4) 12vMan

And 3 with 13pts!
1) bassman
2) FishyFish
3) SPJAG00

Congrats everyone!

Good luck all!

The Browns also clinched last week. :smile:

Thanks for the weekly thread and updates, Musky. :thumb:

And the officiating crew in New York already clinched a review of how they do instant replay ... I think Kraft is the only owner in favor of the change in this year's philosophy, and it doesn't appear many fans are happy.

 

[WIMUSKY]

It's funny when announcers don't even know if it's a catch anymore. And not just Gruden...

W/O Wentz, I think Philly is in trouble. Foles won't be able to get it done in the playoffs, imo. Helps the Vikes tho....

Looks like the Steelers are sitting Ben, LeVeon and Marquice Pouncey (center). I think there is another offensive lineman that isn't playing but can't remember. They should still beat the Browns but looks like they have conceded the second seed at this point.

Tomlin watched 30 seconds of Bryce Petty film, then went down to Landry Jones locker and told him was starting.

 

[WIMUSKY]

I saw that, had to bench Ben... Picked up Keenum...

 

[bassman284]

This is the worst part of Pick 'Em - figuring out which otherwise favored teams are willing to throw a game they don't really need.

 

[aspeck]

Some teams have a lot to play for, others have nothing ... motivations, different players ... yep bassman, it is tough to pick this week ...

No kiddin'!

Dallas finally has a winning season while Cleveland held on to their perfect NFL season for the first time since Detroit in 2008

 

[WIMUSKY]

Lost In Georgia stayed on the top for a long time and finished there, good job Champ! :first:

:second: bassman

:third: PSU Homer


Congrats Fellas!!!

That's all folks, til next year.......

Musky signing off........:bolt:

 

[sphelps]

Congrats GA well done !!!

 

[GA_Boater]

Thanks. I sure picked a good time to tank. Final week picks are a bear.

Let the coach firings begin. Pagano and Del Rio are out. Who is next?

 

[bruceb58]

I went to the Rams game today. All 2nd stringers for the Rams. Almost half the stadium were 49er fans jumping on the Garoppolo bandwagon. He actually didn't look that good.

Was my 3rd game this season. If it wasn't 72° out I probably would have left earlier than I did. Can't even imagine going to a game on the east coast!

 

[bassman284]

Dang, GA, you slipped by me. THIS time. Ah'll be bahk! Congratulations. It was a bitter fight, Actually way better than my previous Pick 'Ems so there's that.

 

[angus63]

Congrats GA!
Happy New Year Fellas
Enjoy the playoffs
Next year the NYG will be better, their only direction is up

 

[aspeck]

Fun time ... GA, I was gaining on you ... LOL! Congrats on your 1st place finish, and congrats Bassman for edging me out for second place ... the better man took second!

 

[WIMUSKY]

Lion's coach received his walking papers.....

 

[GA_Boater]

Fox is makin' tracks in the snow out of Chicago.

It was a fun season. Just make some lucky picks. Congrats to all the players.

 

[angus63]

It is a happy new year now that Gruden is gonna coach again and put away the microphone. One wish granted...
