2015 POTTEDPLANT MEMORIAL NFL POOL


Strider

Recommended Posts

Strider, did you just wake up from a long winter's nap?  About time you posted fella! :lol:Of course you will have to learn the hard way on the Bills game.  McCoy is playing and you are ignoring our dominance of the Bengals as are most except Jabe who has the commmon sense to know better.  Our defense will show up.  If we can shut down Aaron Rodgers we can shut down the Bungals.  EJ has a chance to shine.  If Rex Ryan plays Ty Rod hurt then he is truly stupid.  But I think he is trying to push buttons and fool the world.  I am not biting.  I expect EJ to play and I am confident he will get it done.

No, I just returned home from a party. You know I keep crazy hours...with a no-cell-phone policy at work and going out to concerts or shows nearly every night, I often have to wait until the wee hours before I have the peace and quiet I need to concentrate on making my picks.

I was tempted to pick Buffalo. After the high of beating Seattle this could be a trap game for the Bungles. I don't really trust Cincinnati...they could still turn into a pumpkin at any moment. 

But I don't trust Rex Ryan and I trust EJ Manuel even less.

EJ played well.  It was our defense or lack there of that killed us. Our defense was horrible.  That is why we lost.  And they have to get on a plane to London right now. Maybe a week in the UK will do them some good.  Or  not
