Strider Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Here we go again guys! The 2018 NFL season is one week away and it is time to get the gears in motion for our annual football picking contest. Are you ready for some football?!? You know the drill...I post the upcoming week's schedule of games and you pick the team you think will win each game. No late picks. Once the game has started, it is too late to put your pick in for that game. Remember there are Thursday night games during the season. I had to chase down quite a few of you last year for your Thursday picks. Make sure you pick every game. Help each other...if you notice someone has missed a game let them know. I cannot be on here 24/7 checking everyone's picks so I may not catch your mistake in time. Good luck to all and as always, this is all in good fun and spirit. No fighting or trolling allowed. I haven't decided what this year's prize will be for the winner. Cannot wait to see what fanciful names jabe comes up with this season. Here are the winners of the last five years with that season's winning record: 2017: Bong-Man, the chase, Strider tied at 175-81 2016: Junior - 171-83-2 2015: apantherfrommd - 163-93 2014: jb126 - 177-78-1 2013: jb126 - 164-91 2018 NFL Season Week 1 Schedule THURSDAY SEPT. 6 TIME (ET) Atlanta @ Philadelphia 8:20 PM SUNDAY SEPT. 9 Buffalo @ Baltimore 1:00 PM Jacksonville @ NY Giants 1:00 PM Tampa Bay @ New Orleans 1:00 PM Houston @ New England 1:00 PM San Francisco @ Minnesota 1:00 PM Tennessee @ Miami 1:00 PM Cincinnati @ Indianapolis 1:00 PM Pittsburgh @ Chargers 4:05 PM Seattle @ Denver 4:25 PM Dallas @ Carolina 4:25 PM Washington @ Arizona 4:25 PM Chicago @ Green Bay 8:20 PM MONDAY SEPT. 10 NY Jets @ Detroit 7:10 PM L.A.

ebk Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I'm paying a lot less attention to football these days, but since I love you all so much, I'll probably make random picks every week. That way, I'll come in last so no one else has to feel bad And I don't have to miss you all!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walter Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I feel the same, love. Thinking about having junior get his own username so we don’t have to get dragged down by the sludge... Thanks again Sean ✌🏼❤️🏉⭐️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LedZeppfan1977 Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Well I assume every one is going to wait for the last week of pre season to unfold? I know the Bills do not have their QB named yet. Even though Peterman has the best numbers in the pre season I still would be shocked if it were him. I think its between Allen the rookie and McCarron. Allen makes the most sense to me. But if things do not improve on the offensive line it could be trouble. The defense should be able to keep them in games. My mind is pretty much made up already. But I am going to wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted August 31, 2018 Author Share Posted August 31, 2018 Yes Rick, this is the last week of preseason. But then the first game of the regular season is Thursday and that creeps up fast. So I wanted to get the thread up and running to give you all time to think over the games and get your picks in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well now your Raiders have their backup QB. A guy that many thought the Bills would start on opening day. So much for that or trying to figure out anything they do. Nobody else wants to get this started so I will.

LedZeppfan1977 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Well its too late to edit my picks. Give me Cleveland and the Chargers on the games that were left off please. Nice to see so much support for the Bills here. Not so much on CBS where some shit head has them going 2-14. No damn way. I mean, I get the dislike of the McCarron move. But Allen will be taking over very soon. I just hope Peterman plays like he did in pre season. Regardless, I love the UNDER in the Bills game. I see a defensive battle.

jabe Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 (edited) Yes sir Hank, I'm ready for some football! Strider, once again much thanks to you for undertaking the chore of dealing with the degenerate faction of the forum (me) in this annual get together. Your efforts deserve an air horn blast from all of us. Atlanta - Ridley and Julio, could be nice Baltimore - Rick, no AJ, had to go the other way. NY Giants Royal Orleans New England Minnesota Tennessee - Derelict Henry to Roll this year? Indy Pittsburgh Denver Dallas Arizona Green Bay Detroit Oakland - AJ the new 'Snake'... one day?... doubtful Kansas City Edited September 5, 2018 by jabe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
