If only I saved my picks correctly I would've went 9-5 (worst week) last week and been tied a top the board with an overall recored of 40-22. Now instead I am 35th overall. :gaah:

I need to stop pouting.

I agree with all your choices except the Giants (their offense is too off-kilter to beat the Texans) and the Colts (they've been struggling this year, plus I don't think their D-line can handle the KC onslaught). I'm currently 37-25. I don't play on this site though, so I can't prove it... :borg_assimilation_faces:

Much Better Week for Picking for me. I have 6 points right now, and the only game wrong for me is Giants/Texans. Hopefully GB can beat Washington in OT and hopefully my pick of Tampa beating Cincy happens and I'll wind up being 8/9 if GB and Tampa wins.

Horrible, horrible week so far.. 4-5 if the Redskins win in OT

I'm in the same boat.

Gonna be dropping a few spots, why did I make a last minute decision to go with the Panthers. Ugh!

Are you putting in the Tie Breakers for the Scores of the 2 Prime Time Games, and who you think will score the most/least? If not that is why it may say incomplete, it doesn't consider it to be complete unless the Tie Breakers are put in there. I know that because I just set my picks for Week 6 and I didn't put in any tie breakers and it told me Incomplete, I put in 1 Tie Breaker which was the scores for the Prime Time Games and still says incomplete. Make sure you are putting those in so you can be complete.

5-4 thus far. Looks like I'll be heading back to the #12 spot.

Those upsets will blindside you every time. (Doesn't look like I was the only either. OUCH!)

Definately a tough week. There were some clear upsets today. Just doesnt make sense sometimes. Where in the world did Detroit come up with all those points? Chicago wow. Collins went like 6 for life and 37 yards and got the win.

Well I was 7/9 in the 1PM games but now the 4PM games I was dead wrong on all 3, and it's official that The Titans beat the Cowboys and the Raiders beat the Chargers.

Now who saw Arizona upsetting the Saints?

Man I needed double digit points this week to at least get closer and move up in the standings, and with the Raiders beating the Chargers, and Titans beating the Cowboys that certainly won't help me as the best I can do is 9 wins and that is if San Fran beats the 49ers and The Vikings upset the Jets.

Well, you're still 2-up on me this week. 5-for-12. Need the Eagles & Jets to win. Silver lining in all this is that everyone pretty much picked the same teams save for the handful that are 7-5 at the moment. No one is breaking the 10 barrier this week.

Yeah I was hoping that with me picking Tampa to win that it would help me out since most picked the Bengals to win unless other people picked Tampa but I wanted to be different. Yeah and we are different on the final 2 games, I have the 49ers and Vikings winning.

Yeah nobody will break 10 and we can thank the Cardinals, Raiders and to some the Giants if they went with Houston. Every week Picks will get harder and this week seemed like every game could be a toss up.

I'm starting to wish I didn't change my Eagles pick to San Fran last second. Should've stuck with my initial gut thought, its always done me well.

My feeling exactly. I was on the fence with Carolina, St. Louis, and Houston, but holy. I honestly cannot believe this week.

Yeah, I flip-flopped alot with that game too before settling on San Francisco. At least it's only a touchdown... right? =\
