Yes you can that was changed.

I take that back, anyway, because of CD33's terrible status. :noway:

I may end up changing my pick for the Bears/Packers... with their hopes of a perfect season over, they might not play as hard. I'll think about it.

The way I understand the Bengals' situation, they basically have to win their last two games, and the Jets have to lose at least one, or is it both? Heh. :(

Would've been so much easier if the Texans didn't have that last second win. :(

Hahaha, that was great. An announcer during the Lions game called it "the play of the year in the NFL".

We got beaten, yes. But that one isn't on us. Anybody else notice how they didn't call a single penalty on the Packers? How every call but the first challenge went their way? I'd be fine with it if it wasn't only a few minor penalty's. But on every deep pass they were blatantly holding Julius Peppers. Congrats on winning Super Bowl 46 Packers. The NFL sure wants you too.

It would be stupid for the NFL to want them to win two in a row... one win is fine, but two in a row is boring to all non-Packer fans, so I don't think the NFL would push for that after the perfect season was over.

I knew I was going to need to have a tie breaker the one time I can’t get online Monday. That’s why in my real life pool you make your tie breaker when you make your picks, so it’s all done with.
My guess was 48 points.

I guess it's up to Ryder to decide if he wants to accept yours after the game finished...
