EWB NFL Pickems League (2024)

[Szumi]

I get 13 and my opponent is perfect! 13 will be the best I do all season! 🤣

[LL!]

I obviously felt bad poking fun at Srar and decided to throw our contest. Won't happen again!

[gunnar hendershow]

The better part of my 11 pts is my friend was putting together a big week 1 parlay and asked me for my "lock" and I told him Atlanta -3.5.

🤣

[Forky]

Rigged! I'd like to have an external mediator and counter of points please!  

[Michelle Branch]

Never bet against Pittsburgh. 

Signed, a Browns fan who's been there way too many damn times.

I agree! It's the only way Krabby finds himself not at the bottom of the standings!

I AM THE SMARTEST MAN ALIVE!

Pro tip for myself next week, the order is 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Not 1, 2, 3, 4, 5... 😂

Notes

1. A question was asked about submitting picks via PM - if anyone would like to do this, you are certainly welcomed to do so, it doesn't matter to me if picks are messaged or posted in this thread!
2. In terms of how I choose the games, I try to pick games that have an interesting narrative, close odds (according to Yahoo), or (preferably) both. I try not to pick a team three weeks in a row to avoid someone having to pick or pick against a favorite team to many times. However, if there is a particularly juicy game I will select it despite that unwritten rule. So for example, this week, we have:

Spoiler

1. The Aaron Rodgers's Jets vs Will Levis' Titans - Rodgers flopped week 1, Levis "flipped" his week 1 away, who will bounce back (Odds -3.5 NYJ)
2. Seattle vs New England - New England stunned the world, can they do the same vs Seattle? (Odds -3.5 SEA)
3. Daniel Jones looked piss poor for the Giants in Week 1, Jayden Daniels didn't set the world on fire in his debut - who comes out on top in this NFC East matchup (Odds -1.5 WSH)
4. The NFC West is always good for some close matchups - the Puka-less Rams take on the mercurial Kyler Cardinals (Odds -1.5 ARI)
5. The Russell Wilson Revenge Game - Russ may not be healthy for the game, but still an interesting matchup with Fields vs Nix in Denver (Odds -3 Pit)

Happy Picking, my friends!
