Perfectly annoying as usual. 6 penalties for 60 yards, running a lot more penalties than the rest of the NFL this year and last, and they just dont give a damn.
As a proponent in trying to avoid mistakes Seattle are hard to love.

Eight players chose either Baltimore or Carolina to win yesterday. None of them projected either team to play in the Super Bowl.
Three of us are going with Dallas and six are picking Indianapolis.

Your objective in this game is to successfully pick the Super Bowl winner. If you can do that, you win.
But most of us won't be able to do that. Deep sighs.
Not to worry! There is more to this game!
You collect points along the way for correct picks.
You may not get the Super Bowl champion but you can end up with MORE CUMULATIVE POINTS than most other players.
Here is how it works:
- You get 1 point for each correct pick in the 4 Wild Card games...
- Plus you get 4 points if you get all 4 games right.
Then, you get 2 points for each game you get right in the first round of the playoffs...
and 4 points for predicting the winners in next round
and 8 points for correctly choosing the Super Bowl champion.
I tried this formula out last season. As the huckster-in-chief, my objective was/is to keep folks interested. I have only one minor adjustment this time.

Three players here got sent to the showers after last weekend's games. Tico, Mysteryman and CoastalRat picked Denver to win the Superbowl. Fbazer had the Cowboys to advance next week and than to lose in the final match.
I couldn't check George's numbers on points scored through the Wild Card games. I will use his tally and review the film only if someone challenges it.
Players got two points for each correct prediction in this past weekend's games
CoastalRat 8 + 6 = 14
Lightning 8 + 6 = 14
George 3 + 8 = 11
Rhys 3 + 8 = 11
MizCowdoc 3 + 8 = 11
Panzade made the Wild Card picks but I don't have him as selecting this past weekend.
The post of mine quoted by George said that I was making a "minor change" last year. I can't remember what it was.
