I don't know dinkum about the NFL but, somehow it seems a little perverse that a team that is 8-8 could still be going on to play next week.
With only tonight's game left, rjb and child are deadlocked at 9-6. Child has the Giants. RJB has the Cowboys. At the end of the night one of them will stand victorious, the other will be humbled by defeat. My bedtime is about 9 pm, so I'll find out tomorrow.

About time..

.Ok Johnny...I suggest one last one for the title of Top Tout Of A2K....

Pick the winners of the playoffs and Super Bowl with total points being the tie breaker in the Super Bowl game.

Everybody in?

No real surprises though. I wanted to put The Hawks in the big game, but I couldn't.

Know what you mean...I was the same with Carolina...they kicked me in the gut.

Who was it said: Don't pick against the Steelers?

I usually don't pick a team that hasn't been in the Super Bowl in the last 20 years...they usually do it the second time around...I say they take it next year.

There are just so many good QB's.

Peyton is gonna win one eventually.
Roethlisberget will win one.
McNabb should get one.
Vick could possibly win one.
Brady will win like 7.
Favre could get another one.

Whose turn is it this year?

Well put...any ninnie that parrots that old adage about "Defense Wins Superbowls"...Great Quarterbacks that beat great defenses win Superbowls...

Except of course...That Ravens win...lol

I think it is a combo. A good QB (Good being Brady, not Dilfer) with a great defense can beat a great QB with a shitty defense. The RB is also very important.

But when it is a close game in the 4th, only 1 guy matters.

This is bad Karma, but here goes:
My thanks to the Child typing out my picks, save the ending!

Seahawks beat Rams
Packers beat Vikings
Indy beats Broncos
Superchargers beat Jay EE Tee Ess Jets Jets Jets

Hawks beat Eagles *1
Pack beat Falcons
Steelers beat Chargers
Patriots beat Colts *2

Packers beat Hawks
Patriots beat Steelers

Packers beat Patriots -64(34-31)


*1Changes if T.O plays, but inconsequential as the Packers win the next game anyway.
*2Shakiest pick of the group. And possibly the most important factor in whether or not the Packers return the Title to Title Town!

Right Bill...I thought about the Bears when i wrote that exception...was McMahon pedestrian?..I can't remember...I remember the Pats sucked and the dolphins didn't do much to protect their record...

Didn't the 85 Bears have a pretty good running back too?
