TWL/NFL Regular Season
Week 1 Discussion Thread


Welcome to another year of TWL football picks! I encourage anyone with 30 spare seconds per week to join and make picks here... I do all of the hard work!

No major rule changes. Make your picks in a uniform format (reduces the workload on my part), include a total overall score for the Monday night (or last game of the week) game. 1 bye week per player during regular season only. Cannot be carried over. In case of a tie, we go to the score... if winners have the same score or score difference, it goes to the first pick.

1 hour deadline to post/edit picks - from the first game time of each day listed at nfl.com. If I say picks lock at 7PM EST, your 7:10 picks will not make the cut... you can either restrain from posting and take your bye, or miss out on the game picks of that day. The times will clearly be listed in the picks thread.

Rules thread here.

Preseason chatter also welcome in here.

Formatting kept below for easy thread-making next week.

Overall Scores:
1. ? - (?)
2. ? - (?)
3. ? - (?)


Weekly Winners
Week 1: ?



Overall Leader: ?
Former Leader(s):
? (1 week)



Weekly results can be found here.

*overall winner
*used bye week


If you have any disputes to your score, feel free to contact me via e-mail (also located in the rules thread) at TheRedneck07 (at) gmail (dot) com.

Made the threads a little early... but gives us something to do during preseason.


Seahawks cut TO... traded Jackson... starting Wilson. It's gonna be an interesting season for sure. Flynn has a cushy job now. Paid millions to take the jet from GB to SEA .

Yeah. Next Wed... thanks.

I think you missed out on the apocalypse
yea no kidding....lol but at least i made it back for football season
LOL, I knew something was strange but like a tard, I posted anyway. Its a good thing tho cuz one guy picked the Dolphins to win on the road versus the Texans who right now are a pretty damn good team.

Yeah, final week of preseason isn't over... but I figure a good jump start on the threads might help get the word out there and maybe garner a little more participation.

Yeah, I noticed that as well. Saw the game the other night against NO and was surprised, even if it was preseason.

That would be me.

I had to pick atleast one shitty team to beat a good one.

Miami was the pick!
Are you ready for some football?

I know these crazy bastards are.



Top comment on Youtube:

as long as Javier and Enrique show up to cut the grass and mow the lawn on time tomorrow I don't care what they do on the weekend.




How I love society........keep it classy people. Keep it classy
C'mon people, post your picks!


Also, talent, you're missing your NYG/DAL pick.

The final plays were retarded. Dunno why you would do back to back plays that allow the most time for a CB to adapt, and also go to the same corner.

Very disappointed. Felt like a punch in the stomach watching that loss.

The seahawks got lucky on the fucked up call of being allowed a timeout when they had none with 30 seconds left.
They shouldn't have had those extra plays. At least not as many as they did.

Except they didn't get any "extra" play from the timeout... they got extra plays from the defense fucking up with penalties. A quick snap instead of the timeout would've made very little difference.
would have been a good 10 seconds run off
49ers are the best team in the league

The right is more virtuous than the left. They have twice as many virtues because they have double the standards.
