Lula could number the teams on her PM, which would be documented via timestamp, so no cheating, and it would be fun. I think there are 7 or 8 teams with a real chance to win the whole thing. Interested? Anyone?

I am thinking,

Me
AR
13
NIG
Gator
Enigma
Frank
Vader
Liam
larry
Rick
Blondie
Granny
donna
and ??? or??

If interested, PM me and I will make a new thread. Don't worry, the time stamp on the thread will eliminate any chance of cheating, and if I do it, I would hope you all would trust me anyways. You don't cheat friends...

PM me now!

And if there is anyone here who wouldnt trust me, I will recuse myself and not play.


im in.. im going to hate taking grannys money though.. 8)

Nope, not even close. There is no one in the NFC playoffs right now that the Redskins cannot beat. The Redskins will take of Seattle easily.


Playoffs are a bit different Greggie, and Seattle is the toughest place to play in the NFL. Done Skins. Nice run though to get in.


Deano I agree. The skins are finished. It was a nice story that will soon be over. The Hawks are too difficult at home. Washington also has Todd Collins at quarterback. Let's get real here. There's a reason he didn't start a single game for four years. He's a journeyman that DIDN'T all of a sudden become good. He's had a nice run but it's over. He will be sacked 5-7 times on Saturday. Hawks win this one big.

John the Redskins at Seattle? Todd Collins? And I thought you knew talent!

Come on Slander...You know you and I will never agree on talent. You're the same guy who said Manning and Brady can't "throw the ball", which I'm still scratching my head over!!!!!!!!! As for my Redskins prediction...Didn't you look up Collins' bio???? He's a native Boston boy, so I think he has some magic in that arm :twisted: Picking all favorites is too easy, so I had to pick one dog. I honestly think Seattle has the better team, but as I said, football is a VERY emotional game, and the most talented team doesn't always win, in the NFL!

I'm just going to go ahead and bookmark this thread so I can come back and collect the apologies from all the doubters here! ;)
I'm loving the underestimation of the Washington Redskins. The skins are playing hot right now; on both sides of the ball. Seattle isn't facing the same Redskins team they beat a couple seasons ago in the playoffs. They are a very dangerous team. Don't let 9-7 fool you.

i'm for the titans but the chargers barely ekked out a win in overtime here a few weeks ago against us.we are on the charger home field so that could swing things in their favor.our run defense is pretty good so we need to focus on containing L.T. and not letting rivers throw anything to deep.the one glaring weakness for tennessee is the offene.we need some receivers in the worst way.

Yup! Skins are one of the hottest teams in the league right now, peaking at the right time. The Seahawks are limping into the playoffs, losing 2 of their last 4 games, including a loss to the pathetic Falcons just a few days ago. Anyone know what the line is on this game?

Seattle is a 3.5 point favorite over Washington

Jacksonville is a 1.5 point favorite over Pittsburgh

Tampa Bay is a 3 point favorite over the Giants

San Diego is a 9 point favorite over the Titans


The only team I don't see covering is Seattle, because I like the Redskins in the upset.

Nope, I want the Skins to win, so I can't bet on 'em.

Chuck Norris gave the Skins a pep talk giving them immense hope. However, Chuck Norris is playing for Seattle this weekend, rendering it moot.

I think being the home team is an automatic 3 points, so if that's the case, Seattle is truly favored by 1 point.
