*MFB with 6 correct along with RSCOSWORTH, and as points are harder to come by in this incarnation of the PL (i.e. no 2 point 'jokers'), one may begin to see how the championship endgame will play out over the final 7 rounds  ... But then again, this week, personally speaking, could create a major ripple in the table. This will be one of the most difficult weeks of the season to suss --although I could be wrong, nothing new there  ... so we may be talking about a mind-the-gap when week 12 comes over the hill...
*GERRY (5-3) and I were the only two to predict San Francisco to win at New Orleans .. I'm the sole nutter who thought the New York Jets would right the ship against the Pittsburgh Steelers... Will Gerry punt for a Vikings win again? Not a bad idea, frankly...
*SARBOY now up to 4th with that pick percentage tie-breaker in his pocket, which would be pretty funny to accomplish that, winning it all, given he's won the Silver Cup before. He missed a week but might again be our best picker while not securing the title (won the playoffs one year, but that's another storyline 
*DURHAM within a shout, and LEAD too ... THRILLO's 4-4 means he has to raise his game otherwise it will be all about the playoffs after week 17...
The Table: (tie-breaker: most correct, pick percentage, first to post)
MFB_CUFC ....... (6-2)...... 51-29
RSCOSWORTH... (6-2)...... 49-31
durham_exile..... (5-3)...... 48-32
Sarboy............... (5-3)...... 47-25
Leadbelly........... (5-3)...... 47-33
thrillseeker......... (4-4)...... 47-33
gerry_us ............ (5-3)...... 45-35
Barsidepete........ (2-6)...... 28-46
As it stands, 2-leg playoff quarterfinal (effectively, weeks 18 and 19, 3-4 Jan. and 10-11 Jan.) en route to the Superb Owl title: (Automatic tie-breaker for the higher seed, regardless who posts first)
1. MFB v 8. Barside
2. RSCO v 7. Gerry
3. Durham v 6. Thrillo
4. Sarboy v 5. Leadbelly
Results:
KANSAS CITY 17 at Buffalo 13

Arizona might be a gamble as Detroit is 7-2 and the Cardinals are 8-1, true, but Cards' starting quarterback Carson Palmer suffered a season-ending torn ACL injury. This right on the heels of signing a 50 million dollar extension.
So caveat emptor. But we'll see. [Post edited 12 Nov 2014 15:35]

Compared with Mick's picks... You finish that once-per-season rare 8-0, you are probably in first after the weekend. You disagreed on four. | |

Thursday night NFL features the Buffalo Bills at Miami Dolphins... *Sky Sports 2 (20:25 Miami, Florida and 01:25 a.m. England kickoff)
AFC East
New England 7-2
MIAMI 5-3
BUFFALO 5-3
NY Jets 2-8
Winner will be crossing their fingers and toes for a New England loss at the Indy Colts this weekend, Sunday Night Football on Channel 4 in England, I believe (20:30 ET, 01:30 Monday)
AFC South
Indianapolis 6-3
Houston 4-5
Tennessee 2-7
Jacksonville 1-9
Pats win and their path to a no.1 seed is strengthened, although Denver --also 7-2, Broncs at St Louis this Sunday-- they have their own aspirations to a potentially clearer path to the Super Bowl. Have attended many a game back in the day at the old Mile High Stadium when I was in high school. That is a fortress..
AFC West
Denver 7-2
Kansas City 6-3
San Diego 5-4
Oakland 0-9
Wrap-up of Bills at Dolphins tomorrow. [Post edited 13 Nov 2014 19:00]

I've backed the Pats to win on Sunday night but with little confidence. I fear Luck and Co will give them more problems than the former Indy QB did a couple of weeks ago.
Still think Denver is the team to beat in the AFC. | |

"The former Indy QB" .. nice one
I tip Buffalo to win today. Another game with plastic fans in a stad, in Miami. Even a field goal early where the Bills are up 3-0, the place will go quite as a library. | |

At least you agree with me on the Colts
...
side note: if PL's are selecting sometimes merely on the Las Vegas point spread then that is foolish. It's not as if Vegas got so wealthy,the bookmakers, because they didn't try to outsmart the general public;)
Another Pick-8 available, week 13 or 14. Post here or PM me. | |

Sorry?
I feel like my point went right over your head, Gerry.
Anyway, it is affectionately called ruggers by some, look it up. Also, The NFL is a different game. People wearing shoulder pads, crash helmets and face guards. | |

Oh Vikings 
and you may have a tenuous point
"Ruggers
The term Rugby players use to describe themselves. Such as lacrosse players are 'laxers' or 'lax bros', ruggers is a term used widely throughout the world in rugby culture. It is NOT slang for the actual sport of rugby, but for those who play it. Can be used in place of the words friends, bros, ect.
"Oh shit, here come the rest of the ruggers"
"Where my ruggers at!?"
"Free beer for all the ruggers!" " | | | |
