2018 WoV Picks game (discussion thread)

Quote: beachbumbabs

Didn't you do your magic and then fade all your picks this week?

Do do that voodoo that you do so well, dude.

Can't imagine why you're not riding the karma.

Quote: Johnzimbo

I figure raiders may score 10, doubt AZ scores 31 :)

I was working off of another site and decided I did not want to pick the Ravens-Bengals game, Thus, when I looked at Mission's posted line, I only checked the lines on the 5-7 games that I was considering.

What a disaster. I assume most of the contestants will pick Ravens +5.5-Confidence and Ravens Over 39.5. So that's a high percentage 3-point boost that the rest of us will have missed out on.

DJATC:
Bengals OVER 39.5 - CONFIDENCE
Eagles +8.5
Titans OVER 49
Giants -1.5
Chiefs UNDER 63.5

GWAE:
Eagles OVER 56
Saints (-8.5)
Redskins (+3)
Buccaneers (+1.5)
Steelers (-5.5) conf
...
Looks like some ground can be gained on the dastardly duo.

Quote: RS

Looks like DJATC is 3-2 with Chiefs u63.5 pending and GWAE is 2-4 with none pending. So DJ is ahead by 2 extra wins and 5 fewer losses. I think that's right, at least.

JohnnyQ or BBB -- If either are interested, I'll be gracious and allow you guys to buy-out of the bet right now at a discount.

Quote: onenickelmiracle

I'd be worried about the under 63.5, but MIN +2.5 is a dead duck probably.

Quote: RS

Who has MIN+2.5? Or are there others on the previous list that are close to djatc?

I am going to pick my game and then do the opposite.

You are not getting anywhere near my almost average prize. It is mine!

Quote: Mission146

I believe we're missing a few, I'll figure out who and check for default picks for them a little bit later on.

Quote: gordonm888

For those of us believing in DJatc's invincibility, I'll just point out out that he picked the UNDER on a game that was the 3rd highest scoring game in NFL history -and that was OVER by > 40 points.

Of courses, I'm not gonna be the one catching DJ anytime this year because my picks have sucked worse than Nate Peterman during the last month.

Quote: onenickelmiracle

RAMS -3.5
RAMS UNDER 63.5
TAMPA +1
CHICAGO -2.5
ARIZONA -5.5

I might play these or hope someone else does. Depends on what the coin wants to do.

Some games you can't believe the bet you made was any good. Some games you can't believe you didn't bet more. I've made many picks on this thread that I hated myself, but at the end of the day as the ancient Hawaiians say, it's a doggy dogg world.

Did I miss the standings after week 11?

Quote: troopscott

Not sure who Nate Petersen is but I believe I took over the bottom spot

Quote: gordonm888

Nate Peterman was the horrendous Bills QB who was released last week. When you heard he was going to start, the opposing team was always a good pick.

Someone has to go perfect two weeks in a row to get even close to winning this from DJ. I personally don't even feel capable of a perfect week, because I haven't been perfect yet, just a lot of 5-1s. Although that's what's needed, two 6-0s gets me to 65%. GWAE 12-0, 69%, Johnzimbo 67%.

Don’t worry, for a reasonable fee I’ll give you the 6-0 picks while keeping the 3-3 picks for myself. It’s win win.

you don't choosethe most average, most average chooses you. I think I could sell you a more reliable most average set of pics however. For one thing you take my confidence pick and bet against it, two losses are covered, then I give you the rest of my pics you bet with them then flip one.

Quote: unJon

We should swap confidence picks. Mine is almost always a winner. Then I go 1-3 on the rest of my picks.

Quote: Romes

Please remove my Week 10 "skip" as I did not skip. Mission just didn't post my picks, he said so a couple pages pack.

Thank you for updating the results each and every week!

Quote: EdCollins

Ah, my mistake. It's too late to edit my post, but I will make the correction when the results and standings are posted this Monday, after Week 12.
