Here it is, the last week of the season, time to make your picks once again!
Here are the very simple rules of the challenge:
[list=1]
Simply pick the winner against the spread for 4 games in order of your confidence.
Points will be given or taken from your season total score depending on if you picked the winner or not in your 4 games.
Game #1 is worth 4 points, #2 is worth 3 points, #3 is worth 2 points, and #4 is worth 1 point.
If a game ends in a tie with the spread, you don't win or lose any point for it.
Your picks must be posted in this thread before kickoff of the earliest of your 4 games. Failure to do so will invalidate your week of play (you will get no points).
You can start playing at any time during the course of the season.
I will usually post the results of the week (and the season so far) on Tuesday in a new thread that will include the spreads for the coming week.
I plan on taking my spreads from intertops.com. If intertops doesn't have a line for a game, I will take the average line presented on the usatoday spreads page. Once they have been posted in here, they will not change over the course of the week.
DO NOT EDIT YOUR PICKS once you have posted them in the thread. If you want to change your picks, simply post a new list of four picks in a new post with a simple mention that this is a second set of picks.
[/list=1]
I might add more notes to this if necessary. I have not set a maximum number of players, whoever wants in can play, as long as they follow the rules and post their picks in here, following the format explained below.
Here are the spreads for week 17...
WEEK 17 (all times eastern)
Saturday, Dec. 27
Buffalo at New England (-9), 1:30 pm
Seattle at San Francisco, 5:00 pm - pick 'em -
Philadelphia (-7) at Washington, 8:30 pm
Sunday, Dec. 28
Chicago at Kansas City (-9.5), 1:00 pm
Dallas (-1.5) at New Orleans, 1:00 pm
Jacksonville at Atlanta (-3), 1:00 pm
St. Louis (-10) at Detroit, 1:00 pm
Cleveland at Cincinnati (-7.5), 1:00 pm
Indianapolis (-7.5) at Houston, 1:00 pm
N.Y. Jets at Miami (-4), 1:00 pm
Tampa Bay at Tennessee (-7), 1:00 pm
Carolina (-5) at N.Y. Giants, 4:05 pm
Minnesota (-8) at Arizona, 4:05 pm
Oakland at San Diego (-3.5), 4:15 pm
Denver at Green Bay (-6.5), 4:15 pm
Pittsburgh at Baltimore (-7), 8:30 pm
The Seahawks-49ers game is a pick 'em game as it has no favorite or underdog, pick it straight up.
I think you know the drill by now. Simply post your four games below, in order of confidence. I'll post mine a little later on this week. Good luck everyone!
