You beat me to it.
NE Nitemare gave a new meaning to PICK 6, because got them all right. That meant a juicy 105 points, and leapfrogging all the way to the top of fthe standing.
Separation between #6 and #1 is down to 50 points.

The full sheet has been uploaded. And I will post the weekend schedule soon.

Congrats, NEM! :thumbsup:

It clearly isn't severe enough because I still play every year

Among the posted picks ... :)

6-1 Denver (all but Omega)
6-1 Seattle (all but Tog)
5-2 NE (all but ponchi and I)
5-2 Rams (all but ponchi and NE Nitemare)

Go Texans!

Could be a nice week for ponchi if his two upsets come through.

I had to take those risks.
But I am a bit surprised so few took the Bears. Stafford's record in cold weather is awful.

I thought Seattle vs San Francisco will be closer ...

I dropped SEA to my 3rd choice after hearing that Darnold was a bit injured.
And now, with Nix having fractured his ankle, I guess the NEG/HOU winner is a gimme next round.

Denver’s defense is pretty stout so they have a chance at least.. but it’s going to be very hard without their comeback king leading them.

With the Div's over, there is a new leader:

Wolfie took over, but the top 3 three are separated by one wrong pick next week.
Will update the full scores ASAP.

In one of my home bracket pick em games I switch to the Bears as it was my only way to catch up. But as a Packers fan I was very happy to see them go out.

Not a fan of either Stroub or Williams right now. Poor performances by both.
The Texans have the elite defense; but I wonder how many guys want to stick around knowing that in big games, your QB will throw 3-4 INTs. I know, they will not say it aloud; but those guys must be thinking: it was not us...

He threw too many picks last night, but I don't think I'd classify that as a poor performance for Caleb. Had some big runs in second half and of course the TD at the end...and he's only had 6 and 7 INTs in two full seasons of starting. I think you're placing too much on the picks yesterday. He already set the franchise record for passing yards in a season (with one extra game) but I don't think anyone is upset with how Caleb performed this year. Certainly no Bears fan is.

And as a Packers fan I hate to say it, but he looked really good last week too. Well no Bear did in the first half...but after...

Stroud... can't defend him as much. The weather didn't help but that couple games he did not look good at all. The defense beat the Steelers almost alone.
