yeah good thing :-(

Seahawks may be the most lopsided/consensus pick ever. With announcement about Matt Ryan, the line changed from -3.5 (although most books didn't post a line until they learned Ryan's status) to -8.5 going through the key numbers 4, 6,and 7. That's a significant amount of probability.

I picked Seahawks as my confidence also, but I see that 5 contestants also picked the Under for that game. I didn't think of that. :(

Edit: Seahawks ahead 24-0 at half. So it doesn't look like the extra 5 points will make a difference.

I was sad that I didnt just bet the -8.. Now I am glad that I didnt

Congrats on your 21-1 run.

Quote: EdCollins

Congrats on your 21-1 run.

Thank you. I am amazed myself. I have adopted a new methodology based on 4-5 critical insights and am putting a lot of work into this, but . . . . no way could I expect to have this kind of run and no way do I expect to be able to sustain this kind of success. The law of gravity will get me . . . what goes up must come down. I will crash and burn, for sure.

Before Week 1 no one says "I want to be in first place on Week 8." There are 9 more weeks to go and anything can happen.

Every week as a Seahawks fan is torture. Always by one score

I think my mediocrity over the last 6 weeks is impressive. 5 weeks of 3-3 and 1 of 4-2.

OG... what happened? You are leaving me behind to hold the bottom spot for myself.

Can’t quite believe my perfect week came down needing the Dolphins to cover, and they did!

By one point after having 27 to give!

Way to make me sweat it out, ‘fins!

I was sure "Fitzmagic" was going to throw a pick six at the end.

I saw you would have had ANOTHER perfect week if the Steelers covered. You're on the hottest streak I think this competition has ever seen!

they had that fumble at llike 6 min left near the redzone. I thought for sure that was putting it over.

I have been studying the picks of other players to back-engineer how they are picking. Personally, I think Ed Collins is the favorite to win the contest. To me, his picks are very impressive and thoughtful.

Also, I wish I knew how to spot opportunities in the Total Points line. I am envious of how much success some players are having with OVER/UNDER picks. I am clue-less.

Hehe... Two simple steps:

1) Look at my picks.

2) Do the opposite.

Please note there is another very early game this Sunday.

The Texans and the Jags are playing at Wembley Stadium. Kickoff is 9:30 am ET, 6:30 am PT.

Did I miss the Thursday line posting? I don't see the "official" thread.

First week with no huge favorites

I wonder how the books adjust for international games when setting their lines. Do they wash homefield advantage? Is there an adjustment to the total to account for altitude/jet lag?

OneNickelMiracle-Prozema-Mission Trophy

Qualifying Sunday Picks: 1
Qualifying Early Picks: 6

Greetings!

I have a couple things:

1.) If anyone can let me know who is absent, I will make them officially absent or put Default Picks later on.

2.) Starting next week, I will probably not specifically track OneNickelMiracle-Prozema-Mission Trophy qualifiers publicly. The reason for this is because many players are mathematically disqualified from the prize, anyway, as they can no longer make fourteen total picks within one parameter or the other.

Default picks needed for Bruce1.

Thanks.

Thank you, I'm on it!

EDIT: And, done!

Based on the CONFIDENCE picks, I assume Mahomes has been ruled out for today's game. I still like the Seahawks to clobber the Bucs, but that is an awfully tempting pick.

Mahomes again will not be playing.

Quote: EdCollins

Mahomes again will not be playing.

oh I didnt realize he was questionable early week. I thought he was going to be out for a few weeks.

All I remember was he was supposed to be throwing passes in practice the first week injured, so this must have caused concern he was coming back early.

Well, my lucky streak is officially over. My confidence pick was Vikings -1.5.

Me too. My perfect Confidence Record is now gone. I liked the Bears.

Well 6-0 week taking the entire “old” AFC West!

NFC North was the end of us all. I kept all my picks in the Black and Blue, and went 0-6. Even missed the Viking Under by .5 .

Yeesh.

8 consecutive weeks of picking either 3 or 4 out of 5. Seattle was a tad lucky for me. Bears are a really bad team. Jets are a really bad team. Redskins are a really bad team. Dolphins are a really bad team. Bengals are .....

I can't remember a season with so many teams this bad by mid season.

Quote: JW17

Well 6-0 week taking the entire “old” AFC West!

Congratulations on perfect 6-0!

Quote: GenWyzgy

Based on the CONFIDENCE picks, I assume Mahomes has been ruled out for today's game. I still like the Seahawks to clobber the Bucs, but that is an awfully tempting pick.

Like I said, the Seahawks would clobber the Bucs (I mean they did outscore them by 20 after falling behind 21-7)!

Tough day for everyone who bet on road teams.

I am so mad about that. I normally bet a 8 team parlay with all home teams. Guess which week I didnt?

Next year I am going to have a prize for the most 3-3 weeks. I went 3-3 again this week for the 6th time this year.

Collectively, the forum went 13-58 on four games ATS- the losses by the Vikings, Packers, Patriots and Bears. Wow.

Yup home teams 12-0 ATS this week if you leave out the London game.

Lots of pressure on the Giants to keep it going

Greetings!

The Week 10 Lines are as follows:

Chiefs (-6) @ Titans (+6) O/U 48
Bills (+3) @ Browns (-3) O/U 40
Cardinals (+4.5) @ Buccaneers (-4.5) O/U 52
Giants (-2.5) @ Jets (+2.5) O/U 44.5
Falcons (+13.5) @ Saints (-13.5) O/U 51.5
Ravens (-10) @ Bengals (+10) O/U 44.5
Panthers (+5.5) @ Packers (-5.5) O/U 47
Lions (+2.5) @ Bears (-2.5) O/U 41.5

Rams (-3.5) @ Steelers (+3.5) O/U 44
Vikings (+3) @ Cowboys (-3) O/U 48
Seahawks (+6) @ 49ers (-6) O/U 47

I would have made 49ers 3.5 point faves. They are 6! Thus my best bet..... Seahawks +6!

Bills/Browns over 40 looks good as weather supposed to be nice. But I don't pick O/U.

How are the Bears FAVORITES?

As a longtime observer of the Lions, I would never bet on them to win in Chicago. Ever.
