Huddle Pick'Em Szn 2 CHAMPIONSHIP WK


Bronn

Recommended Posts

Last week, @Khyber53 was our big winner. He got all games correct, and therefore the 10 possible points for the week. He was the only one to pick Tennessee.

1. @FakePlasticTrees, @Datawire, @Mr. Scot, and myself missed one game, and got 6 total points. Baltimore losing killed us all.

2. Somehow the bird is all alone in third, with 5 points awarded.

3. @bigdavis got 4 points.

4. @MHS831 scored 3 points, missing his highest two confidence games.

@Raleigh PF missed the week.

For this week's games, you can make a wager on both games of up to 10 points each based on how confident you are in the result. The hitch is that if you miss the correct pick for that game, you will lose that many points as well.

For example, let's say I wager 10 points on the Chiefs, and 6 points on the Packers:

If the Chiefs lose and the Packers win, I lose 4 points on the week.

If the Chiefs win and the Packers lose, I gain 4 points for the week.

If both teams I chose win, I gain 16 points for the week.

If both teams lose, I lose 16 points for the week.

 

This should really give people a chance to make a competitive jump if they play high risk. I'm only doing 10 points so that it doesn't dilute the accomplishments that people have already obtained during the regular season.

Tiebreakers will be as follows:
Early game (AFC) point total is tiebreaker 1.

Late game (NFC) point total is tiebreaker 2.

 

Good luck everyone!

Go big or go home, right?

Ten @ KC -- Betting 10 confidence points 53 points total

GB @ SF -- Betting  10 confidence points 48 points total

If you hit on these, you win the crown.  If not, the wall of shame.  I can't help but think Tenn could beat KC.  They already did this season.

Yep. Pretty much in last place already thanks to a missed week (and soooo many bad picks). So, go against the grain and bet big. Honestly, I do think Tennessee picks up another win. I think KC shot their wad last week with the major comeback and the Titans are built to play solid, steady football.

Green Bay, maybe... but it is all on Rodgers isn't it? Tough spot to be in.

fug it I am all in too. Let's live on the edge.

TEN @ KC - 10 confidence points, 45 pts total

GB @ SF -  10 confidence points, 37 pts total

Well, FPT's will need to copy my exact predictions like he did last week in order to retain the lead. In doing so, he runs the risk of losing the outright lead completely to someone else that can make some big gains if one (or both) of my picks are wrong. Or go out on his own and take that risk as well.

Bronn will need to have his math game on this weekend.

The reason I wait to pick has only to do with the tie breakers, which have bitten my rear numerous times this year. 

Did we even have one last week?

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
