Two bird teams for me. Because I think that the Bears and Chargers are the best teams playing this weekend, and Ravens and Eagles the worst. So tough to pick one of those to lose.
The Eagles have dealt me 2 of my 4 “losses” this year, by winning a game they should have lost and losing a game they should have won.
But… again I am drawn to picking them as losers.
The Nick Foles magic has to end right? I hope Foles says an extra prayer for his bruised ribs, because Khalil Mack is going to be putting whatever extra padding Foles is going to wear to the test.
That being said, I am super hyped for the playoffs this year. There are no clear favorites here, and every team has some glaring weaknesses. Sure the Bears can stonewall the Eagles offense, but can Trubisky rise to the occasion? Foles has been able to work under pressure, can sophmore QB do the same?
I am still playing this league under protest. Since we didn’t play the preseason, the first 4 weeks of the pool should have be considered preseason and not count on our final total. Sure I was 0-3-1 the 1st four weeks and then ran the table but that is PURELY COINIDENCE. I would still be protesting even if I was 4-0-0 at the beginning, no really :)
Going with my gut and picking Dallas to lose at home.
@Dan_Theman, is the rule you can’t pick the same team twice still in effect during the playoffs? What happens if you have already used all the teams that are playing?
Well, it’s good to see Luck having success in the postseason. Dude”s been through the ringer. I thought they were a year away from being legit contenders, but they look like a tough out right now.
