NFL Weekly Picks 2023

[touch]

It couldn't have been a better outcome for me when it was all over tonight at Ford Field. The Rams covered which got me a second winning Pick for the day, and the first team that I was a fan of (and started a 50+ year love affair with NFL games) just won their first home Playoff game in decades.

 

Both games today were memorable. 

 

This Detroit kid was very pleased. ⚡

Agree, and as a bonus got me a JB DIP (Just Barely Double it Play)!

[TheDarkKnight_]

I am on fire baby! 

The peasants chirped at The Dark Knight the historians will write, "Packers +7.5? In your wildest dreams" "0-2, know your role rookie"

and then the games began

PACKERS OUTRIGHT WAS THE CALL FROM THE BEGINNING!!!!! DIP LOCK OF THE WEEK GIVE ME THE POINTS BUT I DO NOT NEED THEM PLAY OF THE YEAR!!!!

AND THEN THE RAMS COVER IN AN ABSOLUTE NAIL BITER TO BRING THE (future) PLAYOFF PICK CHAMPION ANOTHER WINNER!

2-2 with 60 total points... Just as we saw with touch and Hickory switching to the Packers +7.5 .... I expect we will see more pick changes to those two to picks from ME THE DARK KNIGHT in the future

[nsxguy]

And they're at the top of the stretch and turning for home in this Wildcard weekend race to the finish

 

 

 

And at the top of the stretch turning for home it's QQQ, NJBF and Hickory (trying to break his maiden ), neck-to-neck and nose-to-nose on the lead,

 

doc, Chuntsman and nsx trailing by a length,

 

then a length back to TL and ol' TDK" who, despite his huge,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, font  is still only in 3rd place, both making big moves up to 3rd (it's a percentage thing),

 

another length back to imk, chisag, touch and tater,

 

and surprisingly, trailing the field, NCL & P3P, both of whom clearly exhausted themselves with big stretch runs in the regular season to finish 1st and 2nd respectively.

 

Please hold all tickets as the race results tomorrow evening are not official until the track officials declare the final order. 

 

 

(Apologies to the commish if the type above is too big. )

Suddenly I don't give a F about your favorite Elementary School sized font. 😄

 

 

Mr. Newbie you have added a bunch of sassy goodness in a short time in this place.  Thank you for asking to join in. 

Keep it up and show all of us old timers to the promised land with your Playoffs energy!

An excellent contest you have put on here sir, I am glad this is such a good group of chums all who love chatting it up during the games. I am ready for some big time football action tomorrow... possibly another pick swap on the horizon for THE DARK KNIGHT tomorrow. I will even say another DIP may be on the horizon tomorrow from THE DARK KNIGHT

If Goff beats Stafford tonight, would Goff be the better QB in Lions Franchse history?

You can only double one game this week and one next week.

Goff is like a performance tire made for the street a fast surface but get him outdoors in the elements he starts spinning and the team gets stuck in neutral Stafford is like a Michelin all-season radial that can play outdoors and indoors.  Goff by no means is a bad QB but just doesn't have to portfolio that Stafford has. Stats are stats but look at the intangibles The Rams have been in rebuild mode for 2 years now.  Detroit is fully locked and loaded on offense, Best young tight end in the game St Brown is a top 5 receiver, and one of the best offensive coordinators in the game,  Two running backs that extend drives and one that is a very good receiver.  Stafford basically has Puka,a greatly diminished Cooper Kupp and a depleted line.  When the Rams were on fire we would not even be having this conversation

Good for Goff and the Lions! And the Texans. It’s fun to see downtrodden teams make the turn. I know, I know, everyone also loves seeing the Cowboys get destroyed. The problem in Dallas is that it starts with the GM, who also happens to be the owner. Wash, rinse, repeat.

 

Oh well….my DIP pick helped me this weekend - so Team Lindy is optimistic!

Dark Knight, do you have to post using such big letters? 

Hmmm… I was under the impression that size doesn’t matter. Now that technique of curly cue and pastel fonts?

Nice - DIPS on both sides of this matchup. No Overs, lots of Unders. Will the postponement of the game change that? (Interesting side note - current temp in Dallas is the same as Buffalo.) Forecast calls for snow, 20° with 15mph winds at game time. Doesn’t sound too harsh for 2 cold weather teams.

Thank you.

... What to do. 🤔  Continue my one man useless protest against the PIP, DIP, DROP & ROLL or with just two weeks and falling behind 40 points with a short playoff just hold my nose and take Buffalo with my DIP going big or going home?
