I don't know if you could. But if it were possible, you'd have one hell of a mountain to climb.

Don't sleep on the Cleve. Bengals O has looked putrid. It's tough to go on the road in division and win a game. Lets not forget that the Browns finished off last season with 4 straight wins. They played us and KC tough this season.

I'm kinda leaning to Cleveland myself. Don't be surprised if it happens.

If you can, then give it a shot.
I started a week late, and it's highly unlikely I'll be able to catch up. You'll have to take huge chances on some games, just to gain some ground, and as I learned last week, that's not always the best idea. I won the weirdest games and lost the most obvious.
It is a lot of fun though.

[u]Disclaimer[/u]: Also if you join, I won't be in last place anymore.

[Gtown Purple]

I picked the browns as my upset this week. if they can run the ball like they did on us and avoid turnovers they have a chance. delhomme is back too.

[AwakenTheDemon]

Just to clarify, the number next to the arrow is not the number of spots you fell. It's what your rank was last week. Just how I do it.

Changed one pick: Giants over the Bears. Bears luck runs out and the G-Men get it together in prime time with all the Big Blue greats in attendance.

I just don't know about that one. The Giants (and Eli) have struggled quite a bit this season, while Chicago has looked solid. I certainly wouldn't completely write the Giants off, but if Eli keeps tossing up picks to the opposing defense, it's going to be harder and harder for me to pick them.

If the G-men let me down again, it will be the third consecutive week and simultaneously the last time I pick them to win.

[i]I hope you don't mind I used your template, Malkavian Raven.[/i]

[RavenWarrior11]

My first instinct was to go with Cleveland, Hillis is a beast. However, then I remembered how Flacco and Boldin torched Wright and I feel Carson, Ocho, and TO will do the same.

Cleveland would be good at running it, but I dont think they could outscore the Bengals as long as Wright is in the Browns' secondary. If they bench him with enough notice, I'll change my pick.

I hear ya, but...

The Bears were handed all three of their wins by their opponent. They've been outplayed otherwise.

The Giants have given away their last two games. Sunday night their at home with all the old greats coming in; they have more talent on their team than the Bears and I'm giving Tom Coughlin the benefit of the doubt to take this last opportunity to turn it around lest he kiss his season (and perhaps his job) goodbye.

I've just had a change of heart, or a premonition or what ever you want to call it. lol

The Giants stop shooting themselves in the foot and I think they take this game as well.

That was a tough one. I went with the Skins because they have a very talented and hungry defense and I think McNabb wants some revenge....and he's good enough to get it.

I don't think it's tough at all. Washington's offense is anemic, while Philly's is on fire.

I went with all the favorites this week except two, picking the Rams to upset the Seahawks, and the Browns to upset the Bengals. The Browns have had the lead going into the fourth quarter in each of their three losses. I think at home against the shaky Bengals they figure it out and pull off the upset. (kind of a long shot admittedly, but that's why they call it an upset)

[JO_75]

Jets at Bills: Bills(Major Upset Alert! Ryan Fitzpatrick is actually pretty good)
Bengals at Browns: Bengals
Ravens at Steelers: Ravens(Upset # 2, we carry the momentum from winning Cleveland, and Pittsburgh's luck runs out)
Broncos at Titans: Titans
Lions at Packers: Packers
49ers at Falcons: Falcons(From potentially NFC West Champs to 0-4!)
Panthers at Saints: Saints
Seahawks at Rams: Seahawks(I want to pick the Rams but I'll take the Seahawks in a close one)
Colts at Jaguars: Colts
Texans at Raiders: Texans
Redskins at Eagles: Eagles(I don't buy into the Vick hype but he'll be enough to win)
Cardinals at Chargers: Chargers
Bears at Giants: Bears(4-0, Lovie Smith's job may be saved)
Patriots at Dolphins: Patriots

Okay, guys, just a heads up, I may have to do the usual sunday morning pick stats saturday night or early sunday morning. Either that or not do it at all since I'll be leaving to go to Heinz Field when I usually am making up the grids.
