NFL Beat the Pro ~ Week Nine

[Elgalad]

Halfway through the regular season, football fans!

All downhill from here, race to the playoff time. And while it's early yet, I'm gonna make some predictions. You're all welcome to do the same in your weekly picks as well if you like, but this is just for fun, no bonus points. :biggrin:

AFC East: New England (doh!)
AFC North: Pittsburgh (tough pick, Cleveland is on a roll)
AFC South: Indy (double doh!)
AFC West: San Diego
AFC Wildcards: Tennessee and Cleveland

NFC East: New York Giants (another toughie, could go either way)
NFC North: Green Bay (I'd love to see Detroit, but..)
NFC South: New Orleans (coming back with a vengeance)
NFC West: Arizona (?!?!?!?)
NFC Wildcards: Dallas and Tampa Bay

We'll check back on week 13 and see how much things have 'changed'.. :biggrin:


Okay, I'll admit again that it's getting almost unBEARably hard to be a Chicago fan this year.. and while there are at least 25 'good' excuses why they're so disappointing, you guys probably don't want to hear them here so..

:flame: Grumble :flame:

Moving on..

Big game this week! Clash of the Undefeateds, Pats vs Colts.. two perfect teams enter, one team gets to stay that way. Everyone and their Mother (and her Mother too, probably) is going with New England. Game's in Indianapolis though. Place your bets.. but whatever you do, Don't miss this one. This could end up being the Real Superbowl of 2007. If nothing else, it'll probably decide which of these teams will host the AFC championship for the other, heh. Sunday, 4:15pm, Eastern Time on CBS.

Tony Romo signs for a six year $67 million contract extension. (http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d803c062d&template=with-video&confirm=true) Wow. Hey, Dallas says he's worth it so.. :thumb:
Is he the new Roger Staubach, Cowboy Fans?

shame for doubting the Cowboys

[BabyBeastie]

I did lousy this week with my picks. lol

[Rhino]

Me too.

[Un Con Troll Able]

Adrian Peterson.

'nuff said.

[Beowulf]

How bout that 109 yard TD run off of a short field goal try by the Chargers in a losing effort. That was my play-of-the-week.

[BabyBeastie]

Yeah, that Adrian Peterson is a rookie freak of nature. I want him on MY team. lol

And Cromartie's runback will never be surpassed. Just like Tony Dorsett's 99 yard run from scrimmage. Those are records that can only be tied. Both records achieved while playing the Vikings.

Hmmm...
