The U'sual NFL PL Week 8 of 17, MFB's Pick-8, time-change DL: 17:00 this week 14:56 - Oct 20 with 939 viewsBarsidepete

MFB's Pick-8... Said Mick, "The NFL has thrown one or two surprises so far, but all the big guns are well placed to make the play-offs. My fancy for the Superbowl is the Broncos, but the Seahawks won't give it up without a fight...

Peyton Manning of the Broncos broke Packers' Brett Favre record of 508 touchdowns with 4 TD's to done and dust the day with 510 touchdowns completed, and versus the Niners no less, the NFC champs,.. Well Done Peyt:P .. and of course Denver won again ...

The Table: (tie-breakers, most corrects, but also then best pick percentage, followed by first-to-post)

MFB_CUFC ....... (6-2)...... 36-20
RSCOSWORTH... (6-2)...... 36-20
Leadbelly........... (5-3)...... 35-21
durham_exile..... (4-4)...... 34-22
thrillseeker......... (6-2)...... 33-23
Sarboy............... (6-2)...... 32-16
gerry_us ............ (6-2)...... 31-25
Barsidepete........ (2-6)...... 21-29*

*clearly predicting, me [rollseyes] , with more heart than logic this season. When we reach the point of playoff seedings (week 18), it would be nice to not be in a two-legged playoff v the No 1 seed for The U'sual Superb Owl

Results:

Tennessee 17 at WASHINGTON 19 *Skins now 2-5, a little bit of life before MNF at 90,000 Cowboys supporters..
Seattle 26 at ST LOUIS 28 ** shocking form for the Champs so far, 3-3..
Cincinnati 0 at INDIANAPOLIS 27 .. Colts not missing a beat with Andrew Luck at QB since Peyton was released and is doing just fine in Denver, so happens..
MIAMI 27 at Chicago 14 .. picked MIA but they are an enigma, these Dolphins..
New Orleans 23 at DETROIT 24 .. no idea how the Saints defense gifted this one to the Lions..
ARIZONA 24 at Oakland 13 .. hope springs eternal. But AZ looking good:) ..
NY Giants 21 at DALLAS 31 .. Boys on a roll. Maybe a Super Bowl champ favourite. Big surprise of the season..
San Francisco 17 at DENVER 42 .. Denver,.. like Mick said, perhaps the most motivated to fix what went awry v Seattle back in Feb.
...

Mick's Pick 8 for week 8 (deadline 17:00 due to the time change in the UK:) .. 1 p.m. ET kickoffs unless noted, that would be 17:00 until the states correct their own time zones:D

MINNESOTA VIKINGS @ TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS

(Mfb): "By not having the 2 pointers it has certainly made the PL a tight affair."

Good luck everyone

Well said, Lead. You earn the title point by point, no jokers or as we had, two-pointers, back when. Out-predict em. You're in top form as RS Cosworth :D

MNF result:

Houston Texans 23 at PITTSBURGH STEELERS 30

An efficient performance by the Steelers as they improve to 4-3 while the Texans drop to 3-4. And that after such a promising start for Houston.

Big Ben Roethlisberger completed 23 of 33 passes for 265 yards, 2 touchdowns and no interceptions, to propel the Steelers.

Texans' Ryan Fitzpatrick had 21 for 32, 262 yards, 2 TD's, 1 interception. Adrian Foster had another terrific performance (perhaps there is fantasy league player around;) .. 20 rushes, collecting 102 yards, although a mere 29 yards over the final three quarters.

After it stood 13-0 Houston, at 7:16 remaining in the second quarter, Steelers narrowed the gap to 13-3 in Steel City. With 3:18 remaining before halftime all heck broke loose. In a span of 73 seconds Pittsburgh scored THREE touchdowns, offense and defense working in tandem. A great highlight reel on YouTube or somewhere. Look it up, wow.

Attendance: 56,375

Cincinnati 3-2-1*

BALTIMORE RAVENS
PHILADELPHIA EAGLES
HOUSTON TEXANS
INDIANAPOLIS COLTS

In Thursday night NFL:

San Diego Chargers 21 at DENVER BRONCOS 35

Broncos QB Peyton Manning completed 25 of 35 passes for 286 yards, 3 touchdowns and 0 interceptions. All three TD's caught by Emmanuel Sanders, 9 catches for 120 yards. Running back Ronnie Hillman rushed 20 times accumulating 109 yards. (Peyton now with an NFL record 513 TD passes, adding to that most-ever total week to week.)

Chargers QB Philip Rivers completed 30 of 41, 252 yards, 3 TD's and 2 interceptions. San Diego's running game was effectively--or should that be ineffectively--non-existent.

Attendance: 76,907

AFC West
Denver 6-1
San Diego 5-3
Kansas City 3-3
Oakland 0-6

Vikes aren't that bad of a team. Even away at Tampa Bay, felt they had a good shot, Gerry:)
