    I left the door open for a bunch of people after another disaster with the 1:00 games. (Last week I went 9-7 and all 7 losses were with 1:00 games).

    I am 5-6 so far in Week 11.

    Wins
    Panthers over Rams
    Bears over Jets
    Patriots over Packers
    Steelers over Browns
    Chiefs over Raiders

    Losses
    Vikings over Dolphins
    Redskins over Buccaneers
    Texans over Bills
    Falcons over Ravens
    Eagles over Titans
    Saints over Bengals

    What annoys me is if I made my TGG picks on Saturday night I'd be 8-3. I made my Yahoo picks last night and had Baltimore, Tampa Bay, and Cincinnati. This morning I decided to change my mind on those games.
    Some of those losses are not so bad, however. I would think most people took the Eagles and Texans. The Saints and Vikings would probably be a mixed bag. I am sure I am in the minority with the Redskins and Falcons picks.

    I am now 44-37 since Week 6 and 36-32 since Week 5. That is simply awful.

    My history is that I pick better as the year goes on, but that is not playing out this year.

    Remember there are three winners. I'm just trying to hold on and finish in the top three. Good luck to everyone the rest of the way.

    Oh, and the rest of my Week 11 picks- Colts, Seahawks, Lions, Chargers, and Jaguars.

    EDIT: I got absolutely smoked today, fellows. I gotta think I'll be knocked down a few pegs after this awful showing.

    EDIT: Thank goodness at least the Chargers won. I bet a bunch of people picked Denver. I may have averted total disaster.

    YES!!! I have 8 so far with the Giants hopefully making it 9. I can gain 3 with a win tonight but only 1 if they lose.

    Nice, so picking on Sunday morning instead of Saturday took me from what would have been sole possession of 1st place to sole possession of 2nd place.

    That's the way it goes. There are still six weeks left and I can't possibly keep picking this poorly (38-35 the past five weeks). I'd like to think my worst picking is behind me.

    hmmm, for some reason last week's primetime game didn't count in the tiebreaker column. I got both SNF and MNF right (I think we're using SNF this year), but my number stayed the same.

    deadline is coming up, by the way. thursday games the rest of the year. nfl used thanksgiving to kick it off.

    I noticed that, too. Last time I checked was a couple days ago. I was looking at my week-by-week performances and my SNF pick either last week or the week before did not register. However, my stats on the main standings page are correct.

    I wish we could see everyone's picks once the deadline passes. Not knowing whether you moved up or down the standings when you went 13-3 is frustrating. You don't find out till the standings are updated on Tuesdays or Wednesdays.

    I went 13-3 in Week 12 and moved one point closer to the 1st place person. I also noticed someone moved into a tie with me, but that person did not hit the jackpot. Therefore, he/she went 15-1 or 14-2 and received either 3 or 1 bonus points.

    Damn Falcons. I picked them over the Saints and the Saints are my favorite NFC team. Plus, I picked the Saints +3 against the spread. Sheesh. That's the difference between 121 total points & being tied for 2nd and 123 points & having sole possession of 1st place.

    Okay, so I shook vitolola off me. Now I can wonder about what might have been. (I almost took Cleveland.)
