Not one person has correctly picked the first six games. I guess it's harder than it looks. Good luck with today's games.

Me either. They look like the team that won the super bowl a couple years ago...

Was I the only one that saw Boldin slam Quin's head into the ground yesterday? What a POS! I guess he took a page out of Suh's playbook. Very deplorable!

I completely forgot to pick last week and of course I went 3-4! Could have got myself back in the running!

Anyhow, I'll try to avoid finishing last by going w/ the Pats & 49'ers this weekend!

Patriots and Giants.

I did catch the Boldin incident when watching the game. I think he fell on the play or something and the guy covering him (Quinn) was laying on him so he wouldn't continue on the play. Boldin seemed frustrated and slammed the other guy's head on the ground. Not the classiest thing to do on his part, but I think that's why he was upset.

Hi MIke- you already gave me your picks, at post #107.

That's a 14 point penalty.

You're welcome guys. Just a reminder that all picks are due in by 2:00 Sunday. Still about eight people left who haven't submitted. Sunday should be a great day of football....hope the games are exciting.

I'm like a really good goaltender Mike....and I could use a few extra points myself. I've fallen pretty far behind.

Default Bizarre Game

Playoff football is a jump ball. Brady, no TDs and essentially outplayed by Flacco and the Pats win. The Ravens are known for D but it was a Pat with a game saving defensive play. And oh, those kickers.
