considering as ive never made the playoffs, i assume that because i have a "bye" week i do not need to make picks correct?

Correct. Top 4 seeds don't need to pick for the wildcard week.

If I hadn't screwed up that week with some missed picks I would've been fourth. Making the top 4 the only players without a bye week. It's a good rule but apparently it gets you nowhere

How about them Cowboys?

You little shit, you barely scraped by.

No worries though.

I am happy to see the Lions did something this year. The Cowboys. I really do not need to make a joke about them.

I posted that because Macresco had my quote in his sig of me predicting the Lions would have a better season then the Cowboys would.
I made the prediction before the season had started, apparently he thought i'd fail at that prediction.

As I said before: I'm glad it came true. But with the Lions sucking so much the last decade I thought it was worth the quote.

Yes, because that makes sense.
Nobody quotes someone from a 4 month old statement without the full intent of trying to rub it in my face should i have been wrong.
I'm sure you would have said nothing had the Lions finished worse.

I never said anything. I just quoted you before the season started. You just brought it up. Several times now. I guess someone is gloating. Wich is fine. I think I know about 10 players in the NFL. Mostly QB's. So no, I don't care who is better Cowboys/Lions. It' not like they're going to win the SuperBowl. I don't even have a favorite team. But it's good to know you are so touchy when it comes to quoting you...

I only see/have 3 picks of 8 for the wildcard round... remember, the first two games are TODAY. 330pm EST deadline (at least for today's games + overall score).

Good job Bengals let a 3rd string QB beat you!

Oh well looks like the Ravens should play the Texans next.

If things work out how they do I should say....

Fucking bengals...

Foster doing work!

Bengals fell apart.

No, Foster tore them apart, they did not just fall.

Why in the world when the call on the field was a fumble by Drew did they blow the whistle? Detroit had a easy run in for a TD.

Who dey

Picked the Saints to win, but I am cheering on the Lions

Well at least the Lions have played well. They haven't killed themselves with penalties to bad. They can't say they didn't get their chances when they forced turnovers, they just couldn't score on the turnovers.

It's good to see the Lions being relevant again.

Just sucks that the Seahawks beat the Saints last year, but this Lions team flopped.

Not sure what the forward progress bullshit was on 4 and 1 on that drive, he got the ball stripped when laying on the pile before the whistle blew.

Lots of bad officiating aginst the Lions played a huge factor in this game.

ROFL

If the Broncos beat the Steelers they will be forever laughed at

Refs just fucked Denver out of a turnover.

7 pts to PIT, courtesy of the referees from that backwards pass they called incomplete.

Win win for me... hate the steelers, root for Tebow because of all the hate he gets

Spreadsheet updated.

yeah buddy, I called den > pitt all week

To be honest, I feel bad for the Broncos defense. They play hard all game and manage Tebow's shittiness and get no glory.

Tebow who is the proverbial blind mouse manages to strike cheese and gets all the glory. I still don't see why in the hell people praise Tebow as the next tom brady.

The bronco's defense gets all the praise from me, if anything I see Tebow having a Sanchez rookie year and then fizzling out and god forbid his defense goes to shit next year.

Honestly, I don't see how the STeelers could have gone any farther. Way to beat up and Ben isn't Ben if he can't move. Gotta hand it to tebow though, he made the passes that mattered. I had concerns about the safety position with Clark out and we got burned 3 times there.

Nobody is praising him as the next Tom Brady.
The Broncos defense is getting tons of credit. I don't know wtf you are listening to but their defense is what's allowing Tebow to be able to do what he's doing.

Sanchez rookie year? Sanchez is junk. He's far from being any sort of leader. Regardles of what you think Tebow can or can't do, he has those natural leadership skils that you don't just work for & learn. You are born with it.
Sanchez has never had that & never will.

Beaten by 1 point. Pretty much sucks
