Babyfan's 12th Annual NFL Pick'em Contest!

That might be to only option they have. But it only took 3 weeks for us to get here. Who's to say that won't happen again ?? And what do they do with the playoffs ??

 

And what do they do with the playoffs ??


A Bubble..........the thing that is hurting right now is Travel.

 

OK.
Put all 14 playoff teams in a bubble like the NBA did.
This years Super bowl is in Miami.
So, take all 14 teams there. Fine. Put them in that bubble.
But the logistics are almost impossible.
THE WILD CARD ROUND.
6 games in one stadium in two days ? Mabey over three days.
And the same thing the next week.
After that, it's easy.
I don't know...........

 

The bubble for the nba went a long way toward helping them get there. That being said bubbling the nfl even in multiple cities would have been difficult.

 

Wouldnt it make more sense to do multiple cities afc one city nfc the other then as you pair them down you could move to miami when you get to conference championships and SB.

 

Missed Thursday, but here are my picks for the week.

Sunday, Oct. 4th
Saints
Bucs
Bengals
Texans
Seahawks
Browns
Cardinals
Ravens
Rams
Chiefs
Bills
49ers

Monday, Oct. 5th
Packers

MNF SCORE: 38-27

 

Interesting idea. Let's go with that.
The SB is in Miami.
AFC games are in Jacksonville and the NFC games in Tampa.
Less travel time.
1 game on Saturday and 2 games on Sunday.
Something like that ??
And a question.
Do both stadiums have artificial turf or grass ?
They'd better have rugs.

But that could work.

SEE YOU IN MIAMI !!!

 

Has to be turf cant afford to have a game where they ruin it in the first game then have to play more.

 

Sunday, Oct. 4th

New Orleans Saints

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Cincinnati Bengals

Houston Texans

Seattle Seahawks

Dallas Cowboys

Arizona Cardinals

Qui moi?

It's a nasty job @EvertonBears but someone has to do it ... <bats her eyelashes>

 

@Willie posted some very interesting news on the General Discussion board. Here it is from NBC:

NFL is willing to put teams in hotels for the rest of the season; will the NFLPA agree?

Events of recent days make it more and more clear that the best way (perhaps the only way) to get all 256 regular-season and 13 postseason games played this year will be to put all teams in hotels, immediately.

Per multiple sources, the NFL gladly would do that. The question is whether the NFL Players Association would agree to it.

As one source explained it to PFT, the NFLPA balked during July negotiations at a Thursday-to-Sunday team-by-team bubble. The union likely would balk at a continuous bubble for the balance of the season.

The players may feel differently. Faced with game checks that will be lost for good if games are cancelled, staying in a hotel for the next three months seems to be an acceptable sacrifice. The NBA is doing it. The NHL has done it. If the NFL wants to have a full and complete season, the NFL needs to do it, too.

As another source noted earlier today, putting all players, coaches, and essential personnel in a hotel for the rest of the season should re-open the window on opting out, with some sort of financial benefit if they choose not to embrace staying in a hotel for the rest of the year. But even if another cluster of players decides to tap out as 32 bubbles form, that’s better than eventually having to cancel games or entire weeks or, as a worst-case scenario, to end the season prematurely.

Well done @EvertonBears !!!

 

If this holds up, I'm assuming the Patriots will be without QB Cam Newton?

 

So far we only have 1 member who picked the Pats.

 

@babyfan , I apologize for not getting my picks in. Had one of those weekends where everything went according to a plan that I had never even considered. lol

 

Shut up ! Just shut up !

The road teams are 9-4 so far.
