RotB Pick'em: Week 2 Results & Week 3 Picks


The second week of the '09 NFL season proved to be as exciting a week of football as any with the Cardinals winning on the East Coast, the Bears upsetting the Steelers, the Giants sneaking past the Cowboys, and the Colts proving little time is needed to win a game.  Week 2 mixed things up in the RotB Pick'em League Standings and shows how the tie-breakers will affect the standings.

Eleven users shared Weeks Won Points (0.09) in Week 2 with a 6-2 record.  HEVCHV won Week 2 with a 7-1 record, only missing the Pittsburgh pick (didn't we all except for Thomaldo) and upon further review didn't pick Dallas as I had on my spreadsheet.  Congrats Heavy and BOOOO on my transcribing skills.  Remember that the full eight games need to be predicted to qualify for that week and your predictions need to be in before the given kick-off times.  Week 3 selected Pick'em games are found after the jump.

Hey, I was stationed in Balad, Mosul and Baghdad.

Where are you stationed? My screen pic is of a 7-11 we built (well not me personally) to make us feel more at home up in Mosul back in ’03.

im in Balad,

working as a civilian contractor at the 402nd BN. I think I recently saw a picture of that 7-11 one of the guys took while on a trip to Mosul,

week 3

I bummed that I’m out of the survivor pool. But I can still play here.
Minn (pure rooting interest here)
New JERSEY Jets (they are not a NY team)
New England (tough game but home team should win)
Wash (i have Clinton Portis on my fantasy team)
Chicago (rooting interest mostly—Hasselback out should make the difference)
SD (after Miami’s loss last night—there’s no reason to pick them)
CARDS—(doesn’t matter who they’re playing—I wont ever pick against them—this should be a shootout—41—27 win)
Carolina—(I hate Dallas and would just love to see them lose—carolina has to win sometime—why not now?)

Week 3 Picks

Minnesota- The Niners are not going to stop AP and Favre.
Tennessee - I don’t know who wins from this one. I am sure I’ll flip this later.
New England – They will bounce back from a tough loss to the Jets with a win at home.
Detroit – If the Redskins could not score on the Rams they won’t score on the Lions.
Chicago - No Hasselback means not good for Seattle.
San Diego – Miami will not stop the San Diego offense.
Arizona - This will be a tough game for both teams but I think the Cards can pull this one off.
Dallas - They got embarrassed by the Giants last Sunday and they will be looking to get some respect back in week 3.

MIN – The Niners aren’t as good as the media seems to think they are.
TEN – Potential hang over effect here from putting so much effort into the Pats game. It’ll be interesting to see if Rex Ryan can get his team fired up like that once more, or else Ten picks up their first W of the year here.
NE – Atlanta’s D will be no match for Brady.
DET – I don’t think Zorn/Campbell could be any more inconsistent if they wanted to.
CHI – No Hasselbeck? No shot.
SD – Potential “upset” alert, but I just dont think the Dolphins are good enough to beat SD.
ARI – I learned not to pick against them this past week.
DAL – Cuz Delhomme. Otherwise, Carolina would have a definite shot here.

Post Guinness birthday celebration - Hangover edition

MIN – Bet Brett knocks back a Guinness breakfast and then hands the ball off all day for the win
NYJ – Sanchez hmm after 10 pints that sounds like an Irish named QB.
NE – Hey Brady I met your cousin Michael in the pub last night he said he was better than you until he found Guinness
WAS – I’m hungover but I still can remember that the Lions haven’t won in 2 years
CHI – Da Bears my head feels a bit grizzly today
SD – I need a bolt of red bull to get going today – did I say Guinness was good for you last week?
ARI – DRC meet Peyton he’s going to be passing the ball to you 3 times today (Beer Goggles are great!)
DAL – I must be hungover if I’m picking them

Minnesota (Niners traditionally have trouble in the Dome vs. the Vikes)
NY Jets (I’ll give the Jets some props on D)
Atlanta (Heh, just changed this pick…more a vote of no confidence in the Pats)
Detroit (Time for the losing streak to end)
Chicago (Will the real Bears show up?)
San Diego (Miami’s best defense is their offense…enough said)
Arizona (Would have picked Colts Tuesday…need to be optimistic about something)
Dallas (Carolina, Miami, and Tenessee, all on the verge of 0-3…who knew?)

14-16 picks a week multiplied by 30+ participants a week equals too much work

Focusing on eight games (prime time games and NFC West games) a week ought to make Pick’em more interesting and quicker to tabulate.

MIN – Trench battle goes to the purple squad
TEN – the anger of being 0-2 will push them over the top and to a crushing win and bruising defeat for Sanchez
NE – they have to get back on track dont they?
WA – Haynseworth finally shows up in a nail bitter
SEA – Beat down of daaaaaaaa bears
SD – Watch out for DS
IND – Ouch, sorry guys
CAR – boys loose a late lead

Never do card tricks for the group you play poker with.

by sc464 on Sep 26, 2009 12:54 PM MDT reply actions  

MIN – too many weapons for the niners to defend.
TEN – chris johnson will run over the jets. new york will definitely get knocked off their high horse.
NE – patriots will bounce back at home.
WAS – the lions have to be good at something right?
CHI – it’s going to be tough for cutler playing IN seattle, but no hasselbeck is gonna hurt (no pun intended).
SD – game’s going to be close. rivers will have to duplicate his performance last week.
ARI – manning and wayne can’t win by themselves. fitz will go off this week.
DAL – panthers are awful.

... we sittin here talking about practice. not a game, not a game.

8-0

Min- Seatle’s D don’t count. No 200 yards for Gore.
Ten- Although I need Sanchez for my FFL since I also have Peyton Manning.
NE- Matt Ryan with 3 picks.
Det- I thought I was gonna be the first to have this as an upset pick.
Chi- The Shehawks SUCK!!
Mia- I flipped a coin (literally), then my wife confirmed it.
Ari- No comment.
Dal- No Barber, no problem.

Life's too short. Be a fan. Orlando Magic, Arizona Cardinals,Tampa Bay Rays and of course "the U"! What a winning combo.
