Strider Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 We are exactly one week away from the Opening Game of the 2023 NFL Season. Time to get your pens and pencils ready and picking your games. This will be the 10th NFL Pick 'Em contest on this forum. We started in 2012 and there's been one every year, save for a covid break during 2020-2021. Walter won the prize last year. Here are the past winners of both regular season and playoff pools. I will post the Week 1 schedule soon. 2012 Regular Season 1. Walter: 171-84-1 2. jb126: 167-88-1 3. paul carruthers: 166-89-1 4.

Strider Posted August 31, 2023 Author Share Posted August 31, 2023 (edited) I assume everyone knows the drill by now. If you are newcomer, it is fairly simple. I will post the schedule and you just have to choose which team you think will win each game. Make sure you post your picks before the game is played. There is usually a game on Thursday, so make sure your pick for that game is posted before kickoff on Thursday. You can post the rest of your picks for the weekend games on Friday or Saturday or at the latest, Sunday morning before kickoff. The person with the most correct picks at the end of the season wins a prize. Enjoy the season...and away we go! 2023 NFL Week 1 Thursday, Sept. 7 Detroit Lions at Kansas City Chiefs 8:20 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 10 Carolina Panthers at Atlanta Falcons 1 p.m. Houston Texans at Baltimore Ravens 1 p.m. Cincinnati Bengals at Cleveland Browns 1 p.m. Jacksonville Jaguars at Indianapolis Colts 1 p.m. Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Minnesota Vikings 1 p.m. Tennessee Titans at New Orleans Saints 1 p.m. San Francisco 49ers at Pittsburgh Steelers 1 p.m. Arizona Cardinals at Washington Commodes 1 p.m. Green Bay Packers at Chicago Bears 4:25 p.m. Las Vegas Raiders at Denver Broncos 4:25 p.m. Miami Dolphins at Lost San Diego Chargers 4:25 p.m. Philadelphia Eagles at New England Patriots 4:25 p.m. Los Angeles Rams at Seattle Seahawks 4:25 p.m. Dallas Cowboys at New York Giants 8:20 p.m. Monday, Sept. 11 Buffalo Bills at New York Jets 8:15 p.m. Edited August 31, 2023 by Strider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul carruthers Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 Got to love when you start off the week with a big L, but the real fun usually comes Sunday afternoon--perusing the boxscores & going "wow, they're losing to that team."
