I only placed 4 on the good guys...glad I got them.

I bunch of us blew the GB game though. Gonna be interesting at the end of this week.

Me too. I was 9 pts wrong today.
I'll lose the 9 EVERY week if it means we win.

I'm not going to sugar coat it. I sucked this week. No excuses. I had 15 confidence points on Green Bay, 13 on Pit, 12 on Tampa Bay, 7 for Tennessee (glad they got beat), 5 for NE, & 2 for Dallas. That's 54 points I missed out on. Inexcusable.

I find my own lack of faith disturbing.

But its the best 8 confidence points I'll have blown all season.

I look decent thus far this week, but will probably drop like a stone in the ranks after tonight's game.

[Hardcore Texan]

I fell from 5th to 19th.....ouch. But I got 10 confidence points on Indy tonight maybe I can make up some ground.

[Showtime100]

I had 15 points on Tennessee, I call it like I see it. I'd gladly drop 15 in a Houston game week after week if it meant Houston winning...... gladly I tell ya!!

I maintained fifth, but this week was more like a typical week one than week two.

I have 11 points on Indy. It doesn't mean I'm rooting for them, though.

Ya same here, but I want them to lose.

I see not many people picked the Texans, thank goodness I did!

Yeah, I will gladly give up my 10 points for indy to lose, not a problem, go fins!

KD gets the yellow jersey as Week 2 winner with 96 points. Considering the Week 2 schedule, nice score.

ObsiWan rules the hill with 209 total.

Nice job, you two!

I dropped 9 on the Titans myself. If it means we win, I'll do it again in a heartbeat.

Tell you what, I don't see any gimmies in week 3.
Not even the 'Skins/Lions game.

Thanks! ShowTime! This prosperity probably won't last

....but I have a question...
Why does my individual score say 99 but the "Weekly Performance" say 88??

I'm showing Week 1) 121........Week 2) 88......Total 209

To answer where the "99" is I don't know

OH!: I may have posted too early, looks like the MNF game hasn't tallied yet, and with 11 and Spec doing 14, my post is bogus. You have 99 for the week as best as I can tell, but it hasen't been added to the final totals after week 2.

Good job, and no disrespect to Spec?

Actually, the winner for the week is texasguy346 with 104 points. ObsiWan is the overall leader with 220 points.

If you dropped this week...don't get discouraged. This is a game that lasts all season long. I didn't participate in week 1 last year...and I still managed to finish in the top 10...

Congrats to the 2 above. And for the rest of us...we need to make better picks this week!!!

Good Luck!

This week worries me. There are no clear cut locks.
I even have my doubts that Washington will beat Detroit.

I would say the Eagles @ home vs. Kansas City, Baltimore @ home vs. Cleveland, and Green Bay vs. St Louis are all locks. I don't see KC or Cleveland winning on the road against either the Eagles or Ravens. I don't see the Packers losing two straight against teams they should have destroyed.

Trying to remember, I think I gambled and put five points on them. I've got a feeling that the Lions will snap their losing streak this week.
