Strider Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 Seattle beat San Francisco and saved their season...making the playoffs would have been tough at 2-5 for the Seahawks. Picking the 49ers foolishly, I have now lost 4 Thursday Night games in-a-row after starting the season winning the first three. Which gave me an idea...tally up our Thursday Night stats. I don't know about you, but I always feel better starting out with a victory on Thursday night. It gives me optimism for the weekend.The best overall week we had for Thursday Night Football was the first week, Pittsburgh @ New England. Our aggregate that week was 11-1, LedZeppfan77 being the lone loser picking Pittsburgh. Our worst week was Week 6, when only one of us (in_the_evening) picked New Orleans against Atlanta...1-13 was our record that week. What follows is the weekly breakdown of the Thursday Night picks, starting with the aggregate and then individual records.Thursday Night FootballWeek 1: Pittsburgh @ New England 11-1 with 2 no-picksWeek 2: Denver @ Kansas City 3-9 with 2 no-picksWeek 3: Washington @ NY Giants 9-5Week 4: Baltimore @ Pittsburgh 11-3Week 5: Indianapolis @ Houston 6-8Week 6: Atlanta @ New Orleans 1-13 Week 7: Seattle @ San Francisco 8-5 with 1 no-pick Individual Thursday Night recordsapantherfrommd: 5-2in_the_evening: 5-2jb126: 5-2paul carruthers: 5-2Bong_Man: 4-3ebk: 4-3Reggie29: 4-3jabe: 3-4Strider: 3-4zepscoda: 3-3 with 1 no-pickSteal Away Now Baby Rose: 3-2 with 2 no-picksAnjin-san: 2-4 with 1 no-pickWalter: 2-5LedZeppfan77: 1-5 with 1 no-pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reggie29 Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Maybe exhibition games in the pre-season would be better timed? I heard a rumour that the powers that be are working on a plan for the '49ers to play a game in Sydney at ANZ Stadium, that seats 83,500 and would sell out. Interest here has risen mostly because Jarryd Hayne is the first Australian to play in the backs and ANZ was a home ground for him when he played for NSW Blues in State of Origin and Parramatta's big games. In the past Aussies have mostly been imported for their kick / punt skills, so to have a local ball player would be a TV ratings winner too.http://wwos.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=9044737San Francisco 49ers are keen to play an NFL pre-season game in Australia next year.

Strider Posted October 27, 2015 Author Share Posted October 27, 2015 Anti-climactic Monday Night as everyone had Arizona, so win or lose, everyone's place remained the same from Sunday. And despite your worrying Paul Carruthers, you actually finished well...tied for second in a group of others at 10-4. Bong-Man and ebk step on up to the Winner's Podium, for you two tied for the lead in Week 7 at 11-3. Congratulations!
