NFL PL--the SUPERB OWL--Final week, Deadline Sun 7 Feb 23:30 10:29 - Jan 25 with 2412 viewsBarsidepete

Basically 1-1's all around. I did it the odd way, not believing Denver would lose at home. Everyone else predicted New England Patriots, which was not correct. Many more updates to follow in coming days.

Could this be RSCOSWORTH's first title in a decade? ... thrillseeker's or mfb_cufc's second? durham, Leadbelly or gerry, their first Superb Owl? For the NFL purist this is a fabulous match-up. Best defense (Denver) v the most electric offense (Carolina).

Results:

New England Patriots 18 at DENVER BRONCOS 20
Arizona Cardinals 15 at CAROLINA PANTHERS 49

THE SUPERB OWL TABLE (3 of 4): (tie-breaker: points, pick percentage, then first to post) -- Sun 7 Feb

RSCOSWORTH ...... (1-1) ... (3) ............ (8-2) ... (13 pts)
thrillseeker ............ (1-1) ... (3) ............ (7-3) ... (11)
durham_exile ........ (1-1) ... (3) ............ (6-3) ... (11)
Leadbelly .............. (1-1) ... (3) ............ (6-4) ... (10)
mfb_cufc .............. (0-2) ... (0) ............ (5-5) ... (7)
gerry_us ............... (1-1) ... (3) ............ (4-6) ... (7)
Barsidepete .......... (1-1) ... (3) ............ (3-7) ... (5)

Obviously DENVER v CAROLINA in Super Bowl 50. San Francisco/Santa Clara, California.

Championship is 7 February .. kickoff at 18:30 Eastern time zone/23:30 GMT

**Winner, point spread, over-under, most passing, most rushing -- and 5 points for nearest to correct score -- but it must be where you Also pick the Winner, not where you predict 24-23 but you didn't pick the winner and it was 23-24.

**The tricky part is that Cam Newton could help the Panthers toward most rushing yards, but could also pass for 250-300. Peyton Manning could pass for 250-300 but the NFL's best defense, the Broncs, could smother Carolina. Once we get a sense for a proper over under, it could be 45 points but it could easily finish 21-17.

edit: For some reason Tom Brady is 2-7 in Denver. He can't seem to win in Colorado.

.......

THE SUPER BOWL 50 -- (game kicks off 15:30 West Coast/18:30 ET/ 23:30GMT)

1. Worth 3 points:
CAROLINA PANTHERS v DENVER BRONCOS -- pick winner

2. The points spread -- Worth 2 points:
a. CAROLINA wins by 7 points or more
b. DENVER wins, or loses by 6 points a less

3. The over/under -- Worth 2 points
The total game score will be either --
a. 45 points or less
b. 46 points or more

4. Most passing yards by a team, their QB and anyone--2 points
a. Carolina Panthers
b. Denver Broncos

5. Most rushing yards -- kickoffs and punt-return stats do not count. Only rushing from the line of scrimmage -- This one is 2 points
a. Carolina Panthers
b. Denver Broncos

6. Which team will commit more turnovers? This one is worth 2 points, 2 to anyone who nails the number--what team and how many turnovers -- Zero points for an incorrect prediction -- this one is "all-or-nothing" ... But more than one person is eligible for 2 points.

7. PIck the Exact Score -- worth 5 points
Points only for the PL'er who actually picks the winner. *** CLOSEST TO THE CORECT SCORE IF YOU PICK THE WINNER but not necessarily the spot-on score -- only ONE PLer will be credited with 5 points.

There you go. 7 classic Las Vegas picks. I waited till the late Thursday night/Friday morning lines. If you're feeling lucky bettin' you'll see a trend by after the weekend. You have a week to make an educated decision

18 Points up for grabs for the Superb Owl. Good Luck!

Ya know Shrimper, that was no fun

Your lot are still outside-looking-in for the playoffs. Would be pretty odd to potentially see the Seaweeds in the Championship.

More important matters to sort presently. The U's finding a way to not get relegated ... and sorting my stupid numerology so I can post a thread about who won the NFL PL

Wouldn't that be funny if it was StevieShrimper? though I kind of doubt it.

We get plenty of Championship games across the pond. If Saffend were on BeIN would I watch on a Saturday? Absolutely
