Pick it: Round 1

[YosemiteSam]

Pick the winners. This is a game of elimination. Only the TOP scores move on to pick in the second around. Obviously 4 is the highest score this week. All picks must be in by Friday

• Washington over Seattle
• Jaguars over Steelers
• Giants over Buccaneers
• Chargers over Titans

I reserve the right to change a pick by Friday based on some information I'm hoping will be released by then.

Why is Friday the last day picks must be in by? Because CZ doesn't exactly time-stamp each post they way I would prefer.

Yes, I understand there could be lots of winners who pick all 11 games. Thats ok, I'm just wanting to laugh at the losers :laugh2:

What do you win? Bragging rights which I will complete ignore.

 

[Doomsday101]

Seattle over Washington
Steelers over Jaguars
Buccaneers over Giants
Chargers over Titans

I think the Home teams hold serve.

 

[Dayton Cowboy]

Seattle wins against the skins
Jags beat up on the Steelers
Giants beat Tampa because Tampa shut it down 2 weeks ago and will have too much rust
and Chargers are too good to lose to the Titans.

I fully expect to see Dallas vs. Washington part III

Others would by NY over Tampa Bay, Sand Diego over the Titans and Jax over the Steelers.

I can agree with half of that at least, noone should bet for Norv Turner, normally. But, when facing a QB whose team has been winning in spite of his ineptitude, going against a defense that has been "Lights Out" all year at home, I think you've got to take Norv. Maybe not to cover, but win outright.

 

[Gangsta Spanksta]

Seagulls
Bucs
Jags
Chargers

 

[CowboyWay]

Seattle over Washington
Jaguars over Steelers
Buccaneers over Giants
Chargers over Titans
Bowman and Mendenhall over D. McFadden

 

[Hostile]

Seattle over Washington, too good at home.
Buccaneers over Giants, too much defense for Eli to overcome.

Jaguars over Steelers, Parker's loss dooms them.
Chargers over Titans, Norv's revenge begins.

I'd actually like to see SD win a playoff game or two this year.

My submission:

• Washington over Seattle
• Jaguars over Steelers
• Buccaneers over Giants
• Chargers over Titans

I think Washington is playing better than Seattle right now, but the Seahags have a HUGE home field advantage. The Steelers overall were a better team than the Jags this season, but Pittsburgh has some serious injury issues and the Jags are hot. The Bucs over the Giants ... well, that one is just a feeling. The Chargers over the Titans is an easy one. If you can run on Tennessee, you win ... and no one has a better runningback than San Diego.
