Be a part of something great, join today!

1/1 so far! haha. I was sweating a bit because the Vikes had the lead in the third, but NO shut them down completely after that.
 
Man, things aren't lookin good on some of my games. Indy is losing to Houston, Chicago is losing, and Denver is losing......... Chicago couldn't score with a first and goal.... four goal line stops by Detroit. Sad.
 
Anybody else having trouble figuring out the points system?

I thought it was pretty straight forward.... Pick your sixteen games. Then based on how confident you are about each pick, you give each game confidence points. Think of it as if you're betting those points on the outcome. So if you were extremely confident that the Saints were going to beat Minny, you'd use your (16) on that game. If you were right, and NO wins, you get those sixteen points. The next game that you're most confident in, say San Diego and KC, you'd give (15) points to, and so on and so on.

No I got that part, I just couldn't figure out the "other" points that rank everyone's performance within the league. For instance MGB had something like 45 points generated off of his wins and losses and the confidence he had in them, but had 10 league points whereas I had something like 82 at one point but only 2 within the "league"

Yeah, I don't get that. I'm 5th in total points, but something like 7th in league points.
 
I really botched a few of the games... Niners lost... Dallas lost..... Indy lost..... Dubya Tee Eff
 
Also, I guess I don't see the points you guys are talking about. All I see are standings according to the points we've accrued from the confidence points.

Oh, now the standings on the front page and under "Group Picks" are the same. I think that last night, the front page (the Overview) hadn't updated and was only using a couple of game results. I didn't consider that possibility since all the Sunday games were over and the "Group Picks" had all the updated results.
 
I had a good feeling about that Texans game. They were due to beat the Colts. The past few times they played each other the Colts squeaked by. That said, I had no clue that Foster would bust out like he did.
 
Sigh.... Jets suck..... Chargers suck...... wtf is up with all these upsets this weekend. Dallas, Indy, and now Chargers are getting owned.
 
It's the NFL, man. And this is one of the reasons why it's so popular. Any given Sunday.

Oh, and you left the Seattle win off your list of upsets.

Go Hawks. :)

Psh... same old Niners. I told you guys they'd suck. Everyone tried to convince me that they'd be good this year, but from what I saw, that team still sucks ass.
 
They play in a shitty division so they can suck and still go to the p layoffs

Norv Turner can lick my sweaty bonch ... those pig fuckers cost me 15 points!!
 
Yeah, I lost a lot of points on the Chargers as well. I'm going to do a bit more research this week and adjust my picks accordingly. The Chargers were the only big loss for me though. I won all my other big point games.
 
I think a lot of the games could go either way. I had a tough time w/ picks and also confidence points.
