Scores going into SNF:
Leno: 6-6
Gil: 7-5
Me: 8-4

Only major differences left is my pick of the Packers over the Vikings.

WTF Browns... Saints in major SB hangover. Also, noone saw the Raiders pwning the Broncos... did they? 

BTW, I watched the Steelers @ Fish game and WTF @ what happened in that replay challenge. Steelers arguably stole one in that controversial replay.

Week 7 schedule:

RAWR!

Bengals @ Falcons

Falcons - I know the Bungles are coming off a bye, but I don't think they cease to fail enough for whatever the reason.

Redskins @ Bears

Bears - I get the feeling McNabb will be crushed (physically, not scorewise).

Rams @ Buccaneers

Bucs - I'll take my chances with a 2nd year QB than a rookie QB-dome team on the road.

49'ers @ Panthers

49ers - It's hard to take a rookie QB seriously... at the moment.

Bills @ Ravens

Ravens - Seriously?

Eagles @ Titans

Titans - This is tough to gauge given than the Titans QB situation is as precarious as the Eagles QB situation...

Jaguars @ Chiefs

Chiefs - The Jags are worse than I thought.

Steelers @ Dolphins

Steelers - Would be nice to squish teh fish!

Browns @ Saints

Saints - Who are you trying to kid?

Cardinals @ Seahawks (division)

Seahawks - This strange team is better at home... go figure.

Patriots @ Chargers

Pats - I'm uneasy at this pick since the Chargers play better at home... it will be a close game... I hope.

Raiders @ Broncos (division)

Broncos - Raiders are still a joke.

Vikings @ Packers (division)

Packers - Cowboys lost to their own ineptness... you can't say the same here... especially for a aging Favre on the road.

Giants @ Cowboys (division, Monday)

Giants - Simply just put the Cowboys out of their misery... the team has the same fundamental problem.

Clearly no shot of playing the Super Bowl at home... these Cowgirls.

Records getting into SNF:
Leno: 6-6
Gil: 9-3
Myself: 10-2

Only major difference left in games is Gil picking the skins over the Colts.
I felt like a beast starting off 8-1 in the early games today....

Week 6 schedule:

Finally, bye weeks can be a bit meh

Lions @ Giants

Giants - The Lions success won't really last...

Falcons @ Eagles

Eagles - I honestly don't know how, but I think the Eagles will expose the weak Falcons run d... despite the Eagles being a primarily pass first team.

Browns @ Steelers (division)

Steelers - Rookie QB for the Browns vs Big Ben Steelers... it might be interesting... or a snorefest. There is no middle ground.

Chiefs @ Texans

Texans - I'm not confident in the Matt Cassell offense.. but I do like the Chiefs defense... it's a tough game to call.

Saints @ Buccaneers (division)

Saints - This should be competitive... especially given the Saints woes and the Bucs doing pretty well.

Dolphins @ Packers

Dolphins - A headache for Rodgers plus a a bye week can do wonders for a team.

Chargers @ Rams

Chargers - After an embarrassing lose to the Raiders, I expect them to get back to playing better against the bleh Rams.

Ravens @ Patriots

Pats - I simply hope there's a good win to come from a bye week.

Seahawks @ Bears

Seahawks - I like the Bears d, but what the hell is with the Bears o? I doubt that can continue long term. Seahawks are bad on the road, but that could be compensated via the bye week.

Jets @ Broncos

Jets - Despite having come off MNF, the Broncos were bad against the Ravens... I'm not sure how effective that team would be better than the Jets...

Raiders @ 49'ers

49ers - There's a shot that the 49ers will get their sole win vs this awful team...

Cowboys @ Vikings

Cowboys - I don't normally like picking the Cowboys after that suckage, but this is compounded with the suckage that is Brett Favre on MNF.

Colts @ Redskins

Colts - I don't like this matchup.. it's tough to call. The Colts d isn't very effective, especially on the road or vs the run. The Redskins d is very curious... but more importantly, the Redskins o "does enough" yet isn't that great either.

Titans @ Jaguars (Monday)

Titans - I really don't like this pick... either way.

The timer concept is fine... it's the slowness of it that blows major chunks. I find myself executing everyone else's command and leaving Cyan last, and even trying to wait for Cleave, often times the other character's bars are waiting for the next command... it's simply that bad.

Other than the command being fixed... I don't think I saw anything unique about it...

Interesting trade to get back Deion Branch for the Pats.

Good job Team Favre. INT (EDIT: a pick six) to seal a game... after a bye week. Congrats!

I apologize for having an awful week. Like the Pats, my brain is on a bye.

Records leading to SNF:
Me: 4-8
Gil: 4-8
Leno: 7-4, failing to pick the Bears @ Panthers game

Only major pick diff left is my pick of the 49ers to beat the Eagles.

Week 5 schedule:

Pats bye week can't end quick enough.

Chiefs @ Colts

Colts - Despite the bye week, it would take quite a bit of effort to stop Peyton. There's still a shot of an upset though, but it's hard to see that while the Colts are at home.

Jaguars @ Bills

Bills - The Jags aren't that great... despite that win over the Colts. This matchup is scary.

Buccaneers @ Bengals

Bengals - There's something really strange about this TO-Ochocinco combo... it's still not good enough....

Falcons @ Browns

Falcons - It may be tough for the road-dome team....

Rams @ Lions

Rams - I don't like this pick very much at all... arg. Two perennial fail teams.

Broncos @ Ravens

Ravens - This may be a tough matchup to call.

Bears @ Panthers

Bears - I don't like this pick, but the Bears are better overall, particularly with regards to Special Teams. Despite the loss of Cutler, which was his frazzling party, Collins will try to hold that fort down...

Packers @ Redskins

Packers - I don't know how McNabb was able to get away with that meh of a performance.

Giants @ Texans

Texans - I don't quite by that Giants defense, given how Cutler was his own undoing.

Saints @ Cardinals

Saints - The Cards are starting a rookie QB. Good luck with that.

Titans @ Cowboys

Cowboys - The Titans aren't that good a team, and the Cowboys are coming off a bye.

Chargers @ Raiders (division)

Chargers - The Raiders are the Raiders....

Eagles @ 49'ers

49ers - This is probably my lame upset pick, but I'm uncomfortable with Kolb and this is a slightly more favorable home game than the one with the Saints. I see lots of running to happen with the 49ers vs the Eagles undersized defensive line.

Vikings @ Jets (Monday)

Vikings - I don't really think Moss will help too much with this game... I get the feeling the Jets will win..

Tried Defraggler?

I think it can defrag the MFT, but I'm not entirely sure.

hey Deathlike2, have you seen the alleged Brett Favre genital pics yet?

I have not, but I'm more interested in the woman he sent it to.

Looks good, for now.

I think this trade had to be done, because Moss was going off the deep end to get out of town.

I'm not sure what the Vikings will get. Either they spend money to extend him to keep him happy (and it'll be like paying for Favre, but long term), or hope he doesn't make the locker room implode while whining about his contact.

Bears @ Giants = unwatchable

Collins might be alright if given time, but WTF was Cutler thinking all of the first half before the concussion? Clearly all those hits confused him more than gamblers not knowing when to stop.

 
After I wrote this, Collins is coming out and it's 3rd string QB time...

The MNF game for Week 3, you got correctly. However, we all lost the SNF game.

It's supposed to be like this:
Me+Leno: 8-8
Gil: 9-7

Do I need to poke fun at your math again on IRC?
