Redksins and the Giants have decided they want to win the NFC East all of a sudden. Who does the winner play in the playoffs (most likely opponent)
Well done Matt, you've pulled away from Warrior13 and now just behind Mike who must be sweating seeing his lead cut down.
I'm also taking Buffalo to beat Pittsburgh, the Steelers are overated. They are this year what New England was last year. Too many injuries have caught up with them.
Either by the website or the pick distribution, I have only 2 upsets. Sounds like you've all gone with the same ones I did, plus a few more. But I was tempted by a number of games. Indy @ Las Vegas is a tricky one, because the website says Indy are favourites away from home, but the pick distribution has a huge % of people tipping Las Vegas at home.
I'm looking forward to seeing what Miami can do when they host the 11-1 Chiefs. We have one of the best defenses in the league and have intercepted the opposing QB for 19 consecutive games. Xavien Howard leads the competition with 8INTs in 12 games. Meanwhile Mahomes has only thrown 2INTs in 12 games.
Tua will probably have to pass for 3TDs and throw for 300 yards. And no INTs. He has never thrown an INT in his career, and will need to keep it that way.

That's an interesting game Matt, if not for Washington upsetting Pittsburgh and exposing them as not that good I'd say Kansas all day long but now the Steelers have dropped a game I don't think Kansas will be as motivated as before to be honest and could possibly lose in an upset which becomes Tua's breakout game. I personally think Kansas will win it 28-17 and picked them accordingly.
I see other teams in the NFC are not laughing at the NFC East any more, the Giants have won five straight and Washington's defense is terrorising quarterbacks. Makes you wonder how goood Warrior13's bet would be if Barkley hadn't of got injured. Funny thing is though when I see the Giants offense now I think of the Redskins of a couple of years back. Colt McCoy at quarterback and Albert Morris at running back.
I wasn't impressed with the Patriots whatsoever. They looked hopeless. I'm wondering if the poor records the NFC teams have is partly due to them facing each other and canceling each other out. Without a shadow of a doubt the Chiefs are the best team in the NFL but who else is there in the AFC that is a Super Bowl contender? Pittsburgh got exposed by the Redskins who are not even average and Baltimore no longer look like the force they were last year. On the NFC front you have the Saints, Packers, Buccaneers, and Seahawks. If the Patriots were in the NFC they'd be a 2-12 team on a par with the likes of Dallas and Carolina. I'm beginning to think the Dolphins are the second best team in the AFC and its not because of Tua but because of their defense.
The Pats have really hurt themselves this year. Based on the number of wins they have right now and should have by the end of the year (either 7-9 or 8-8), they will most likely be too far out to nab one of the Top QB Prospects.
Warrior13 is either going to be leading or too far behind to come back after this week. I can't wait to see what happens, I'd love to see him leapfrog in front of everyone or at least put pressure on Mike along with Matt. The last couple of weeks everyone has been playing it pretty safe and Mike is cruising to victory.
Of course, Dennis and I picked the same for the early games. Mike & Matt have Texans, and Mike also has the Giants. Chicago dominating at half, Cardinals currently up in a close one.
I originally had the Dolphins, but I change to the Chiefs after seeing Miami is beat up right now. Glad I did. Even though the Phins were up 10-0, it's now 21-10.
My Indy and Washington upset picks paid off Warrior's Chicago, LA Chargers & Washington upset picks paid off Dennis's Chicago and Washington upset picks paid off Mike's LA Chargers and Washington upset picks paid off, but he lost out on NY Giants
Currently I am tied with Mike, as he lost a point this week. Warrior is 2 up on him and 1 up on me & Dennis, but he tipped Pittsburgh so it will change.
Miami came from 10-30 down at 3QT to keep it close, and they lost 27-33 to KC. Tua threw his first career INT, but threw for 300+ yards and 2TDs (+ a rushing TD). Mahomes threw 2INTs in 12 games, and then Miami intercepted him 3 times in one game! Aaron Rodgers now takes over as the favourite for the MVP.
Washington easily accounted for San Francisco 23-15 (23-7 before garbage time). But Alex Smith went off with a calf injury, and Haskins filled in. NY Giants should only win 1 more game, so all Washington have to do it win 1 game as well. Philly & Dallas are too far away to make it.

Predictable loss for Pitt, I knew with all the starting linebackers hurt and this obscene butterfinger problem the receivers have that it would be a really tough game.
Happy to have only dropped 1 point going into monday despite my somewhat silly Giants pick. Also had a hunch I should've picked the Bears over Houston with all the PED stuff and a bunch of other Houston receivers sidelined.
The Redskins defence won the game against the 49rs. The offense did literally nothing. I can't figure out how they managed to put 23 points. The offense only got 3 field goals. Giants should have stayed with Colt McCoy, they were winning with him, Jones didn't look good.
