CCL Messageboard

It's that time of year again.

Select the winner of each game for the given week. Straight wins. Point spread is not a factor.
Make one Lock pick per week. Can only use aLock once per team (whether you were right or not).

Also, predict total number of points for Monday night game as a tiebreaker.

Standings will be kept in Four categories:
Win/Loss Percentage, Prime Time Games, Lock Pick and Weekly Winner

Only 6 days until I never again have to read anything about he's only a 5th rounder. Some fool even put us down as expected to score the least points of any NFL team this year!!!! A bunch of people are about to feel STUPID!!!!

Let's see week 1
Washington and Lock pick it. (This is NOT the Caleb Bowl, 2 teams headed in opposite directions I suspect)

Thursday, Sept. 7

Lions at Chiefs (Chiefs are supposed to be pretty good I hear.)

Sunday, Sept. 10

Panthers at Falcons (I can't wait to see what that generational rookie RB I wanted in the 1st does)

Bengals at Browns (About time for Watson to earn some of that contract)

Jaguars at Colts

Buccaneers at Vikings

Titans at Saints

49ers at Steelers (Steelers, the AFC sleeper team)

Noone picked the Lions to upset the Chiefs at home. Looks like we're off to a great start this year. I didn't see the game but it makes me wonder if losing their OC and a couple lineman had more of an impact than people expected. Sounds like the Lions rookies on D feasted on the downgraded o-line and Kelce being out apparently didn't help either. I wonder what the bookies point spread for Lions vs the Skins in the championship game are? I can't say I saw anyone predicting those two to meet up for the NFC title so far.

Looks like someone had a really bad night.




I'm assuming that's the replacement for the right tackle that signed with the skins.

Who are the Redskins ?

I forgot about this aspect:

NFC EAST - Eagles
NFC SOUTH - Saints
NFC NORTH - Lions
NFC WEST - 49ers

AFC EAST - Bills
AFC SOUTH - Titans
AFC NORTH - Bengals
AFC WEST - Chiefs

Check your scores, let me know if I screwed up somewhere.

Weekly winner was crunchbird with a 10-6 record. We all got our Lock Picks. Prime Time was ugly, crunchbird, WEBVG, and myself went 1-2, Howie went 0-3.

Unanimous picks were 6 in total. Correct on Atlanta, Baltimore, and Washington. Incorrect on Kansas City, Minnesota, and Seattle.
