Re: 2007 NFL Pick-em: Week 15
 

What playoff teams start to rest their stars and give up games?
I think a perfect season is more important to the Patriots than giving players some rest.

Who starts throwing away this season in order to get a higher draft pick or jump-start on next season?
I think Miami has that covered

Thursday
Denver at Houston

Saturday
Cincinnati at San Francisco

Sunday
Seattle at Carolina
Atlanta at Tampa Bay
Green Bay at St. Louis
Jacksonville at Pittsburgh
Arizona at New Orleans
Buffalo at Cleveland
Tennessee at Kansas City
Baltimore at Miami
New York Jets at New England
Indianapolis at Oakland
Detroit at San Diego
Philadelphia at Dallas
Washington at New York Giants

Monday
Chicago at Minnesota

After noticing that almost all my picks were for the away teams, I almost decided to go back and switch all my picks to the away teams, but of course that would lead to me getting all the games I switched wrong. Stupid irony :mad:

Re: 2007 NFL Pick-em: Week 15
 

Can somebody tell me Houston's chances of making the playoffs because on the NFL webpage they say something along the lines of Houston staying alive for playoffs and I thought Houston had lost it.

My understanding is if the the Titans and the Bills lose today and next time, and we somehow beat the Colts next week AND beat Jacksonville the week after, we could be headed for the post season. If two teams have an equal number wins and losses and equal division wins and losses, who advances?

There are only 2 wild card spots, which are currently held by Jacksonville and Cleveland.

Houston is listed in that article, but tiebreakers for the Texans aren't mentioned, probably because there are far too many combinations of things that need to happen in order for Houston to make it. Your chances are slim indeed. Your playoff chances start with a whole lot of Cleveland, Buffalo, and Tennessee losing. I presume Jacksonville will lock up a spot, so there will be four teams fighting for that final spot.

According to the article, with Denver's loss last night, Cleveland clinches a playoff spot if they beat the Bills and Tennessee loses to KC. It's supposed to snow like crazy - winter storm watch for Sunday - in Cleveland, so that'll probably mess everything up, negate the Browns' passing game, and hand the Bills another cheap victory etc. Typical. Tennessee has no business losing to KC, but stranger things have happened.

Wow something we agree on Travis!!!:) I think this guy will be a star and he'll be starting next year no doubt.

He showed flashes of his Ohio State days in that horrible game and gave the Ravens something to look forward to, as much as I don't like this team (Steelers fan), I like where its headed.

Oh how the not-so-mighty have fallen.

Steelers tied with the "lowly" Browns. Oh the humanity.....

KC couldn't hold off Tennessee though. Bah.

Re: 2007 NFL Pick-em: Week 15
 

I knew I should have picked Miami. When I walked in the room where my brother was watching the game, I saw it tied in overtime and I knew Miami would win, even though Baltimore had the ball and had just had to good runs.
