American Football (NFL)

@deanclean My extensive knowledge of other teams,certainly,hasn't helped me. I was once in a pool with someone who made her selections based on which animal,she thought, would win in a fight. She did pretty good.

[Jett129]

@SKT I want to see The Vikings and the Seahawks in the NFC Championship. Two Ex-Jet quarterbacks. If I was Mark Sanchez I would start working out.

[deanclean]

@Jett129 haha that works too. I used to make picks based on if I’d been to that city or if I liked the sound of the short form of that city. Buff for Buffalo etc.

@deanclean good news is you don’t have to wait until next year if you don’t want to. A new round is starting this week…all fresh and new!

[IrishHeart]

Well that was quick, but congratulations @goosehd .
Pleased to have another selection, and I’ll go for Vikings to beat the Jets in London.

[Nocturama]

I missed the last round, but would love to jump back in.
I’d also go Vikings over the Jets, sadly.
I tried to get tickets as the game is in London, but I got screwed over by the Ticketmaster website just as I tried to check out, so if the Jets lose, I’ll feel less bad about missing out. If they win, then happy days, however given the performance at the weekend versus the Broncos, I’m not hopeful of that happeneing, hence my selection.

[Jett129]

@Nocturama Glad to have you back,and it would also add insult to injury if the Jets get beat by their ex QB!

[IrishHeart]

@Nocturama that’s bad luck. I am off to the Bears game in London on the following weekend ( my daughter is a Chicago fan). My first NFL game live and really looking forward to it.

[Nocturama]

@IrishHeart - I have been to several Wembley games previously, including when the Jets beat the Dolphins, so I’m not unduly upset. Crikey, just seen that was in 2015!
I was hoping the game would be my second visit to the new Tottenham Hotspur stadium this year, but the Pearl Jam gig got cancelled the day before in the summer, and then…well, Ticketmaster stepped in to ensure I’m not getting there at all.

Edit: atmosphere will be awesome, have a great day out cheering on Da Bears!

[IrishHeart]

@Nocturama I’m delighted that it’s at Spurs stadium as I haven’t been there yet. I’m a Packers fan so really shouldn’t be cheering for Chicago but will make an exception for this game.

[Mizmazzle]

I'm calling a third win in a row for the Broncos over the Raiders. They've had our number for the last 8 or so match ups and it's time for that to end!!

[Jett129]

@Mizmazzle It looks like they're starting to put it all together,especially on defense,and The Raiders look a little out of sync.

[Jett129]

This was tooo funny not to post here.

I’m going Ravens over Bengals simply because it’s a division game and we were so fucking hot on Sunday night that I could barely sleep after. Totally fun game and a great reason to stay up late on the night before my first day of work. Luckily onboarding is pretty low stakes.

Steelers over Cowboys

[Mizmazzle]

@Jett129 this Denver D is playing lights out. I was so bummed when we lost Alex Singleton to his knee injury. That dude is a wrecking ball of a tackler.

[Choko]

That’s what I’m talking about @Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot

[Jett129]

@Matt It’s not just that they beat The Buffalo Bills it’s how they did it. Nobody holds them to 10 points. It’s just taken a few weeks for some of these teams to get rolling. I hope I get to see the game. Should be a good one.

[Mizmazzle]

By the time the Ravens and the Broncos meet both teams should be primed up!! (I know I’m eternally optimistic here)

[pmadison95]

I am going to go with the Seahawks over the New York Giants in a bounce back win for the Giants.
