Hope no one took Jamaal Charles in the first round?  ::)

Nine playing, I don't know who two of them are. Now I need to remind myself to start early next year. ruxpriencdiam ran away with the regular season. My attorney friend Dan was second, and both had a good time making fun of my poor picking skills. Neither one understands, it's being there and having fun that counts.

(see how a loser can justify failure by claiming it's only a game?)  ;)

No, I'm from Vienna, Austria. I just like the team and the fans ;D

I was hoping they'd have success in the playoffs this year - we saw how good that worked out :o

About as good as My Green Bay Packers?  ::)

Now we get the teams that are out and Silly Season for the coaches, as they get fired and hired.

Hey who's in last. (not including the girl that joined late, and the "bad cat" with zero's) Why it's some guy Hodag named Pete!  :)

Good reminder, and if you picked someone who makes it to the next round, the game remembers and moves them down. Lets see how this week goes and what the standings are after that?

1   stealthpigg's picks   67
2   ruxpriencdiam's picks   62
3   lightwriter's picks   60
4   danno1265's picks   55
5   indolee4460's picks   53
6   McFumble   52
7   aspenphoto's picks   51
8   WiHodag   36
9   flarengitis's picks   0
9   kedvencmacska   0

Maybe next year for the regular season there will be more interest.

Yeah and I had Charles!

If he hadn't been taken out guess where I would be?

But hey this week is a new one again and I had some moved down but I have found out how to easily score big time now will I do that or do it my way????

Last I looked, at least five people had Charles. I wasn't one of them. Give it a week to settle in, it's going to be close because of the short playoff season.

No San Fran quarterback has ever won two playoff games on the road.

AH yes, people who believe in trends, 100% hindsight and nothing to predict the future.

How about, favored on the road, championship return contenders, 7 game winning streak, when the temperature is under 60 degrees, playing on grass, Sunny and a second term Democratic President? (on an even numbered Sunday in January...)

Looks like a close game on paper and the line has been moving towards SF 49ers. Hope it's a good one. Opened -1 for Carolina, latest Las Vegas odds now -1 SF.

That's Big Dan my attorney friend. He's sending me emails saying I pick so bad, I need to turn in my Man Card.  :-\

And looks like you could be very right about the Panthers moving on to next week. Their defense looks very tough.

And as I said someone took off!

I'm going for the Seahawks and Bronco's but I'm older, I've been wrong more often than you!   :-[

No dog in this hunt, just looks like two good games and then the Super Bowl which I hope is a close, good competition.

Well, you're half right; Broncos will be there.  My hometown Seahawks aren't going to let SF ruin their parade....Quest will be rocking with the roar of the 12th man.

Some of the people near the bottom didn't make more picks after week one, or never filled in the slots for players on teams that were eliminated.

Now it's that long wait until Feb. 2nd. MLK Day so no government business today in the US.

I guess I'll go edit or take something new. Hey look, it's snowing...

Manning or Wilson?
Blue or orange?
Defense or offense?

I think it's going to be (very) close, but in the end the Broncos will take it with +3. In any case I'm looking forward to Sunday :D

Too bad that Denver didn't even show up? 12 seconds into the first half, Safety. Halftime 22 - 0 and they could have still come back, with some good play and defense. 12 seconds into the second half, Touchdown Seahawks. 29 - 0 Mark the game over, right about then.

We had a party at the corner bar. Bring a dish... all kinds of things, brats, raw beef on rye, 8 bean soup, chili, meatballs in BBQ sauce, chocolate eclairs, chips - veggies and dips, peanut brittle, dark chocolate pieces. Shots for everyone for touchdowns. So even if the game headed South, there was fun and food!  :)

Final Standings. I wasn't going to gloat but just for the record. A blind squirrel can find a nut sometimes. Come back for the regular season next year and watch me hold down the bottom.

Yes, I picked Denver to win.  :-[ I haven't been this wrong in years. Usually by the time of the Super Bowl, I can see a winner, even when it's the underdog. This was stinky, and Denver was the reason. High points were all about Seattle!

Yes, and I plead guilty for not making it more of a point to promote the season league. It's only six people, Barry = Rux, Aspen Photo, one of me and our deceased cat. My friend Betty from the Chinese restaurant and Dan the attorney.

Point is, when the season ends, yes, it's more fun , with more people.

Might as well say it now. You don't just pick a team and watch. You pick every week. Takes about five minutes, but reminder is, you need to play every week.

Aspen, are you here too or only on the SS forums?

Thanks. What's funny is there was someone else who played last year, local, with a similar name.

Update tomorrow when the totals are in. Let me say, Packers are the home team for me. I said more swear words in the last five minutes than I did in all of 2014. Seattle tried to lose, best they could and the defense for the Packers managed to give it up.

Touchdown - onside kick - touchdown - two point conversion... overtime - touchdown = GAME!

Patriots vs Seattle Super Bowl. I'm in the unfortunate position of the conclusion, the Patriots will win it. And I can't possibly cheer for Seattle, so it's just another game.

my pregame prediction was hawks 31-21 but didn't forsee how the points would be scored

amazing game & the hawks look tyo  be in good shape to repeat -- packers managed only 16 pts frtom 4 of 5 starts in seattle territory
the defense just gets better and lets them survive to wi n even when the offense takes 55' to warm up

I watched last yr's superbowl streaming in the French alps starting at midnight, but this year will prob'ly miss it since we'll be on a boat just outside Hanoi

final score of superbowl seahawks - 28-  24
