NFL 2022 Pick 'em Contest

Anyone not already playing is free to join, if you want all of your picks in, have them in before
kickoff of Thursday nights' game. If you miss it it will be an automatic loss for you. (that goes for any of us).

 

My pick for Thursday
8:15 pm Los Angeles Chargers Kansas City Chiefs - KC

 

It's not just you.

Just a few years ago we had enough interest to have two full FF Leagues,
the last two years there has been no interest at all.
Last year we had, what, 10-12 people playing Pick 'em, today we have three....

There are a lot of reasons why, some were turned off by the BLM crap, some
can't keep up with who's hot, and some simply don't have the time.
The BLM crap pissed me off, but I just kept reminding myself it was only a very
small percentage of guys taking part in that, 80% didn't, so I won't persecute a
large group because of a small group... JMO.

Thursday - leaning to Cleveland.

 

I am so tempted to go with Pitt tonight, but I will stick with Clv.
I just don't know if Pitt's defense will show up or not, they seem to be
lost without TJ Watt...

I may make a switch depending on gametime injury statuses.

 

My last minute changes (before I posted my picks) cost me 3 wins.... just like last year, I'll never learn.

 

They played great the first two games, new coach, new staff, a ton of new players.

I originally had Balt, Mia and Minn picked but I changed at the last second as I posted my pics here,
I regret changing to NE and Buff at the last second. I really thought Detroit had turned a corner....

 

Week 3 results:
Willis 10 (26)
Whisky 6 (27)
Nicholas 6 (23)

At least get your pick in for the Thursday night game this week: Miami at Cincinnati

Probably Cincy, subject to a last minute change, for Thursday night.

 

Going forward, when I post the weekly schedule, I will also post the FOLLOWING Thursday game so
you can pick it at the time, if you want to. You can always change it before kickoff, but you won't have to
remember to logon on Thursday just to make the Thursday night pick....
