WOW, Brent... I guess we owe ya some "leeway" for winning last year, but SHEESH! :)

Hey I gotta get my quality trash talking in before the season starts. I'm mute once it gets going. Seriously. Look back. I'm not making that up. Unless my recall is broken, I believe I started any real trash talking until the last few weeks of the season last year and the past few weeks starting this one.

If my memory serves me correctly, I believe you are right!

For myself, I never was one to trash talk. In my younger years, I ate way too much HUMBLE-PIE. LOL.

Agreed! On top of it, I believe I mentioned a time or three that picking games isn't a sprint either, it's a marathon. Tortoise and the hare type of stuff! ;)

PS. When in doubt, pick Daaaa'Bears!
 
Just finalized my picks; My only two upsets were Tennessee over Pittsburgh, and Washington over New York (Giants). Other than that I went all favorites. Good luck everybody, and I can't wait for a great game on Thursday!!.

At the moment I only have 2 upsets as well. Though different than your 2.
Tomorrow I will make my last minute decisions/changes
 
Okay, because I'm such a nice guy, I figured I'd help the rest of you losers out. Here's my picks follow along, and at least you can stay tied with the leader of the pack . . . me!

LOL... ROFLOL! I just looked over your picks with a fine-toothed comb, Brent. Besides the OBVIOUS "Da-Bears" pics, there are a couple I just can't imagine you'd pick for real... Buffalo at NE for one. Wow... REALLY? Or are you just foolin'? :)
 
When I made my picks (5 or so weeks ago) I had 3 upsets...now the majority has shifted, so I have 0 upsets. Barf!
 
I HAD two upsets... Denver over Cincinnati which I'll stand by...
and I HAD Chicago over GB... but I'm leaning GB's way now. Not sure about Cutler...

Now I've only got one upset... but am waiting to hear more about the Bears' chances.

I've got Denver over Cincinnati as well. I also have the Jets over Houston, as I think their defense will be really strong this year (especially against Houston), and they have a really nice run game.
 
Make your picks!!!

Tomorrow is game day... 3 people still haven't made their picks.
 
stupid question...I made me picks but is there something else i have to do? like lock them in or something?

All you have to do is save your picks. I like to check the group picks page just to make sure the save worked. You'll see hyphens for all your picks until the first game of the week starts. It's just a little confirmation I like to do because missing a week can really drop you in the standings.
 
yet you live in wisconsin... You are a traitor to cheese head nation!!! :laugh:

cheese goes in my mouth, not on my head :laugh:

actually I only live about 20 minutes away from the stadium, and used to drive by it everyday when I worked in GB. But yes, I'm not a huge fan of the Packers

...Go Vikings, Go Bears...and for my mother's sake, Go Lions.
 
All the picks for the games this week have to be made at least 5 mins before the start of the first game of the week... which is tomorrow night. So no... not just the Pitt vs Tenn game.
