Thanks to @DandyDon52 for doing this for a few years. We spoke and he is tired of tabulating your picks, lol. No seriously, he's a bit tied up so we're giving him a well-deserved year off. My scoring is a little different and it'll reward the players who get the game score correct more times than not. There'll be bonus questions for maneuvering but if someone goes 17-0 in their game predictions, don't expect to catch them. So here goes:

The point system
10 points - Picking the correct game winner​
6 points - Exact score bonus for getting both teams' scores exactly right​
3 points - Close score bonus for being within 3 points of both teams' scores​
2 points - Each bonus question​

To play this week, you give me this:

1. Dallas vs. Giants game score
2. Bonus 1: Pollard vs. Barkley: who has more total all-purpose yards
3. Bonus 2: Guess the yardage of the game’s 3rd score within 5 yards (FG or TD only)
4. Bonus 3: Will Dak throw an INT?

Picks are due by posted game time of 7:20 P.M. Central this Sunday. If you need to change any part of your pick, make a new post instead of editing your old one or your update won't count as I only go back to where I left off gathering entries.

Mods, can I get this stickied to the top until game time or at least until someone starts a pre-game thread that night???

Good luck in running the prediction game this season.
I'll make sure to get mine in by kickoff Sunday night.

Look, I don't do this prediction thing this early I mean this is crazy early we don't even know who's going to be missing yet who's going to be active and all that kind of nonsense.. I will pick my winner and loser right before game time...

And yes it is a big deal if we're missing offensive lineman the entire left side of our line Donovan Wilson were playing on the road I mean did you not see the chiefs game doesn't take but one big mistake to lose a game when you're in a fight with a team who's very close to you in talent... They were missing Chris Jones Travis Kelce probably would have made a difference,

so it's going to be a big deal if we're missing some key players. So look for my prediction Sunday afternoon maybe morning who knows
