Six-Pack Pick'em Challenge: Week 9

Post by APB »

Holy schnikes is right!!

For the second consecutive week, forum prognosticators shined! No less than seven members scored 5 of 6 correct picks with 6 of those participants also nailing their upset pick. Congrats to @Backthepack4ever, @NCF, @Papa John, @Pckfn23, and @wallyuwl on taking top honors this week.

Oh, wait that's only five members. Oh, that's right! Yours truly also nailed 5 of 6 along with the upset pick! :mrgreen:

The leaderboard saw some minor shuffling but the overall standings remain relatively close. What's not close? Your contest administrator running away with the upset pick tie-breaker lead! Ha! Get off me!

Speaking of upset picks...I tried to warn you! As it turned out, once Jayden Daniels was determined to be healthy enough to play, the Commander's went from 2 pt dawgs to 1.5 pt favorites. Those of you who stuck with the Commanders as your dawg pick didn't get credit for it. :(
The rules are simple:
  • Choose an outright winner from the four select games of the week
  • Choose an outright winner from the Packers matchup
  • Choose an outright upset winner from any weekly matchup
The upset pick can be from the previous five games already in play or any of the other weekly NFL matchups on the schedule, so long as your chosen underdog victor was listed as a kickoff dawg. For reference, a listing of Vegas odds can be found here.

I will maintain a cumulative tally of correct choices with the winner declared at the end of the regular season. You'll get a mulligan for two weeks, be it forgotten picks or a bad week, but the rest are on you. The winner will be declared at season's end for the participant with the most correct picks. In the event of a tie, the participant with the most correct upset picks will be declared the winner.

Need motivation? The winner will receive a special gift from the Packers Pro-Shop from the Mod Team. See? Us Mods aren't all bad...
Now, on to the picks!

The Four:
Los Angeles Chargers @ Cleveland Browns
Dallas Cowboys @ Atlanta Falcons
Chicago Bears @ Arizona Cardinals
Los Angeles Rams @ Seattle Seahawks

The One:
Detroit Lions @ Green Bay Packers

Your upset pick:

Good luck to all participants!

The running scores are below. The first column under each week indicates total correct picks, the second column your upset pick score.

Like I said, these boys want to prove me wrong? Great, I'm here for it. Until then, I ain't gonna be wearing rose colored glasses. Don't why y'all and the fat boy in the post above mine have such trouble understanding that.
