[Jaws]

I haven't been able to do my picks. Keep getting a server error. Guess I'll try again...

I just did them. No problem.


Peace and smiles

I find that if I go directly to the EN World group page, I get errors, but if I go to the pigskin pick'em front page, it works just fine.

Here's the front page:

picking Tampa Bay to win in an upset was obviously a bad choice......

I picked NE, but I had hoped the Bucs would pull the upset... Oh, well...

 

[Dungannon]

Yeah, I picked Tampa too. Oh well, just means I won't go 16-0 this week.

I went with New England. Tampa Bay + cold weather = loss. At least 95 percent of the time. It's always a pretty safe bet.

That's a terrible statistic. Tamba was so bad for so long that I'm sure they have all sorts of conditions that they had more loses then wins. Its like those that thought that the Steelers winning the past 8 or 9 against the Colts mattered this year when they faced off.

 

[Dimwhit]

Yeah, but they're something like 1-40 in sub-40 degree weather. I know there are bad stats, but there's just no positive way to spin that.

That's because we don't have any useful info. How often where those games bad Tamba Bay teams against good Green Bay and Chicago teams? I imagine that is where many of those loses happened when they were in the NFC central.

KC needs to learn how to tackle.
