I have ran this for a decade or or more now and Chad ran it the first few years.
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 a Thursday game 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.

Went to a college football game today. College kids think covid ain’t real, but my hospital is full. It’s a nice, open air stadium and I’m good with the precautions I was able to take. Felt very nice to be at a collective event.

I'll update the first post later with picks and eliminations. Enter week 5 picks when you can.
My pick ended in a tie. Am I out because I did not pick the winner or am I still in because I did not pick a loser? :)

Week 7 Patriots over JetsThe Rams have been known to blow a game against the team they should absolutely steamroll (last year’s Jets game, for example). I have a feeling this is going to be that game for them. Besides, I think Goff wants vengeance more than Stafford does.

Then again, it’s the Lions, so the Rams might win by 60….

I thought the same thing as I was typing my post but remembered it was Goff. There is a reason the Rams dumped him.

For $35 you can get a Texans ticket, pizza, and a soda to watch them play the Rams. Not sure how either team is doing but that says a lot. Makes me wish I could get into the Texans, I drive by their stadium 10 times a week.
