NFL Last Man Standing Pick 'Em 2015 ROUND 2 OPEN!

[Hoopz]

I ran this the last few years and Chad ran it the first few years.  I was going to post it later in August, but I'm bored at work today and may not have time next week to do it.

Rules are simple.  Choose one game each week.  Pick the winner.  If you are wrong you are eliminated from the game.  Last man standing wins.  I will keep track of everyone's picks each week and display them by editing this post. 

When making a pick, highlight it in the post, so that they're easier to pick out.  I don't want to miss anyone's pick.  If you don't know how to highlight it, copy somebody else's pick and change the color name if you want.

A pick must be made every week.  Failure to make a pick results in elimination.   Picks should be posted in this thread so that people have the ability to double check my work.

You cannot pick a game with the same team two weeks in a row.  If you pick the Rams over the Titans in week 2, you cannot use either the Rams game or the Titans game in week 3.  Having everyone help with this will eliminate the possibility of a mistake on my end on this item.  You can pick a team multiple times over the season. 

Entrant pool closes an hour preceding the game you want to pick.  That means that if you want to pick Thursday's game this week you must do so at least an hour before the game starts.  Forum timestamps will be binding.

Good luck to all.  As always my goal is to make it out of Week 1 this year.  And the winner does receive forum rep points.

Its been a few months since I logged in here.  First thing I read was the thread by Saint about the mods.  Good to see nothing has changed.

Good luck this season bitches.   

Week 1 - Packers over Bears

[BadMouth]

Let's see if I can last more than a week or two this year. 

Week 1 - Seattle over St. Louis

EDIT:  changed to city names

[yotsuya]

Week 1 - Carolina over Jacksonville 

[harveybirdman]

Oooh I want to play, should be over quick for me, but what can I say I'm a Homer......


Week 1 - Atlanta over Philadelphia 

[vwalbridge]

Week 1 - Cincinnati over Oakland 

[pbj]

Is this going to be another one of those years where the Cowboys start off terrible out of the gate, pull a few out of their ass, get me all excited, slime their way into the playoffs and then Romo chokes again?  Preseason performance thus far indicates Yes.

Why would this be different than any other year?

Your saving grace is that the NFC East sucks. You should win that division easily.

[Malenko]

Half of the NFC East Sucks aka the Giants and the Redskins.  That being said, I have no faith in the Eagles only because I dont even know who ---smurfing--- plays for them anymore.

The NFC South was the super ---smurfy--- division last year with NO team having a winning record.

[vwalbridge]

I have no faith in the Eagles only because I dont even know who ---smurfing--- plays for them anymore.

Never heard of Timothy Richard Tebow?

[Malenko]

I have no faith in the Eagles only because I dont even know who ---smurfing--- plays for them anymore.

Never heard of Timothy Richard Tebow?

I know they have like 5 quarterbacks including Bradford, Sanchez, and Tebow. I think Kelly got Tebow to turn him into a running back if he even makes the cut.

[Hoopz]

Bump for anyone else that wants in.  I'll PM the past winners too.

[pbj]

Green Bay defeats Chicago

Nice to see the Cowboys occasionally acting like they remembered how to play football last night.  Between 30 second skip on my DVR and the ipad in my hand it's going to take a lot to get me engaged this year....

[Malenko]

in an effort to make sure at least 1 person get booted week one, I'll pick the opposite of harvey


Week 1 - Philadelphia over Atlanta 

[mrhowell]

Week 1 - Seattle over St. Louis

[BadMouth]

Week 1 - Seattle over St. Louis

Gotta apply the GLOW option for it to count. 
It's located above the  emoticon.

or

  If you don't know how to highlight it, copy somebody else's pick and change the color name if you want.

[Cakemeister]

Thanks for the PM!

Week 1: Texans over Chiefs   

[Matthew Anderson]

I feel bad saying this.

Week 1 New England Patriots defeat the Pittburgh Steelers

I just threw up a little bit in my mouth

All the games week 1 feel  like they could go either way. Good luck everyone.

[Hoopz]

You obviously didn't attend Bears training camp, read any news about the horrendous defense, lack of healthy WRs, or anything.  Bartt Star could start for the Packers and still win that game.  ---daisies---.

I'll update the OP when I get time.  Plenty of time for anyone else to get in.  The more the merrier.

[JMB]

Week 1 Green Bay over Chicago

[Vigo]

Week 1 SeaHawks defeat Rams

[Kier]

Week 1 Panthers defeat Jaguars

And damn, I really hate week 1. Scared to pick any game.

[Hoopz]

OP updated.  Remember that you still have time to enter.  Games "lock" right before kickoff of that game so anyone who forgets to post a pick can still select a team for the MNF games too.  Welcome to the new participants also.

Vigo - Surprised you didn't pick GB over Bears.

I'd worry about the Carolina pick over anyone right now.  I think Jax will be better and Carolina is in trouble without having any WRs for Cam. 

[harveybirdman]

My Falcons are going to shock the world baby....


(if Ryan doesn't get killed behind our joke of an offensive line)

[chopps]

week 1: Patriots over Steelers

[wp34]

Week 1 SeaHawks over Rams

[RetroGreg]

week 1: Arizona beats New Orleans

[deadmoney5]

Week 1: Patriots defeat the Steelers

[JimmyU]

Week 1: Packers over Bears.

[markrvp]

Thank you, Hoopz, for the PM reminding me to play again this year!!!

Week 1:  Markrvp - Dallas Cowboys over New York Giants

[BadMouth]

This thread is evil.
...every year.
 

[yotsuya]

My pick won (Carolina over J'ville), my team won (Arizona over Dem Saints), and Game Night last night was a success. Too bad Mrs. Yotsuya was "too tired" last night, or this would have been a great weekend!

[Vigo]

Week 1 and I am out. I hate the Seahawks.  Lost my work fantasy team as well. Guess who my QB is? This miserable POS.





Next week Seattles play the Packers. I am guessing they will remember that they are a talented team again just to spite me.




Hoopz, the Bears looked pretty good yesterday. Yeah, Cutler still Cutlered, but they don't look as much like the 2014 Bears as I was expecting.

The Packers are going to want payback, and they're playing in GB. I might make that my pick next week....

[wp34]

To paraphrase Newbomb Turk---I'm glad I lost.  The Seahawks being 0-1 was worth it.

This ^ just made my Monday a lot better.

Yeah, all you need is one of your wife's coworkers to punch you in the face if you want to be surprised with that thing she normally refuses to do.  Decide if whatever you're into is worth it, bro.

Had to love ESPN deciding the Aggie game was so non-competitive that they needed to air LSU vs Mississippi State on two different channels.

Also loved the "don't turn that dial, folks, this game isn't over!" BS during the Texans game.

Broncos game was entertaining.

Old Man Romo and Old Man Whitten pull another one out of their ass in the 4th quarter.  That game was one of the ugliest season openers I've seen.  And proof positive that numbers lie when it comes to quarterback ratings.

[harveybirdman]

WTF is up with the Colts OL and Defense?  Nice to Know my Falcons aren't the only team with OL issues.

Gotta love it when Percy Harvin and Tom Brady were both on my teams bench this week...

Now I have far too much riding on the Falcons toning, Julio and they two Matty Ices have to get me 61 points tonight, Plus the Falcons gotta win for me to stay in this contest.... It could get ugly for me real quick tonight.

[yotsuya]

When the Giants went for the FG (the safe thing) instead of going for it on 4th, I knew they would give up the TD and lose. You go for it on 4th and don't get it, Arlington still has to go 75 yards just for a FG and 99 for a TD. They deserved to lose.

[pbj]

Apparently I'm in minority opinion in that I don't think that was a terrible play call.  Giants field goal forced Dallas to go for a touchdown.
