Texans over Colts - +1 for me 2. Giants over Eagles - +1 for me 3. Chiefs over Chargers - +1 for me 4. Rams over 49ers - +1 for me If I had kept my Raiders pick, I would have evened it out with you. Now, I am 1 behind instead of being even with you. Let me know if I am right. @Moe tied me, interesting dilemma. I am totaling things up now. You look to be 1 game behind right now. I just noticed Easy didn't pick the Chargers/Chiefs game, that is an automatic loss. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, let me know what your final pick for the Bills vs Dolphins is, whatever you do, I am doing the opposite. You can't lose against me but in order for me to win, I have to pick differently than you, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is just fun competitiveness and keeps us thinking with our football minds. Who would have thought there would be 3 games decided by 1 point - Seahawks over Cardinals, Chiefs over Chargers, and Rams over 49ers? Fun fact for you to stash away in football trivia - Carson Wentz has never lost to the 49ers as a starter, not as an Eagle, not as a Colt, and now not as a Ram. He is 2-0 as an Eagle, 1-0 as a Colt and now 1-0 as a Ram vs the 49ers. That was the basis for my Rams pick, lol https://www.turfshowtimes.com/2024/1/6/24027297/rams-news-carson-wentz-nfl-week-18-49ers-los-angeles-san-francisco 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2006Coltsbestever Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 As of now, leaderboard through 271 games: 1. @2006Coltsbestever172-99 1. @Moe172-99 2. @chad72171-100 3. @EasyE168-103 Easy made 4 switches and all were losses, he didn't pick the Chiefs at Chargers game either which was a loss. Had he stayed course though, he would be 172-99 and tied for 1st at worse. I have the Bills tonight, so does Moe, Chad has the Dolphins. Worse I can do is end up in a 3-way for the Championship. I am ok with sharing it. I know it is all in fun, but we all do want to win too lol. I want to emphasize it is also time consuming to make sure you get your picks in for 18 straight weeks. We all have outside stuff going, family stuff as well. For 10 people to do that all season is impressive! The strategy, switching, and gut feelings that go into this are fun and takes smarts. I just want to say I love you guys for doing this all year. Good luck Chad and to Moe = - Homer trying to get a free Duff Beer .. Congrats on sharing the Championship. I will tally everyone else's up later tonight. Hate for this to end. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I don't want it to end. I see @Chrisaaron1023moved way up to this week. A lot of luck goes into this as well. I lost two 1-point games today, it allowed Moe to catch me. You would have been ahead of me had you stuck with the Raiders, that is how close this stuff is. I know @EasyEsaid a while back he had a lot going on family wise, he still hung in there and got his picks in - hats off to him. Switching did him in this week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2006Coltsbestever Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 I have to go and look but I think I am 5-5 when it comes to switching this year. It is like going for it on 4th and 3 from the opposition's 45, it is 50/50 . Sometimes it pays off and sometimes it bites you in the rear. I not only had to worry about Moe who I actually played it safe with to assure at least a tie, I was dealing with Chad and Easy as well. We had legitimately 4 people that could have won this going into the last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, to realize I’d have pulled off a great comeback only to undo my chances sucks but I think I’m like 3-6 switching picks. Like I said, it’s a very good group at the top. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was impressed when I kept looking at the scores, I was like Chad is winning every damn game (saying it jokingly/happy for you). I couldn't believe it.
