NFL Football WK 17 2008 Picks Updates

2008 December 28
by DarcsFalcon

So far, 8-2 for the early games.  Woo!  And seriously, did anyone see the Giants or Bucs losing?  Seriously.  However, I can’t tell you how glad I am the Vikings won.  I’m NOT a fan of the Giants, or the Bears, so a Vikes win was a special thing indeed for me today.  :)   Not happy about how that affected my stats, but you probably heard me laughing all the way from here when I saw that the Giants lost by a single point in the final second of the game. 

As for the afternoon games currently in progress, can you believe the Cowboys?  C’mon!  I thought for sure they’d fight a lot harder for that play-off spot.  Apparently not.  Think they can recover from a 44-3 deficit with 1 quarter left?  Yeah.  Me either.  So, for sure I lose on that stat. 

Updates: Well, 11-4 at the end of the afternoon games, just one more left in regular season football.  ONE GAME LEFT!!  And it’s a fight for the NFC West Division Championship.  Who will take it, the Broncos or the Chargers?  Will I end the week at 11-5 or 12-4?  Yeah, I’m on tenterhooks, too.  ;)

STUPID Broncos!  So, I end up 11-5, with a season total of 162-93.  Anyway, here’s who’s going to the play-offs:

AFC NFC
Titans Giants
Steelers Panthers
Dolphins Vikings
Chargers Cardinals
Colts Falcons
Ravens Eagles

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  • There are no longer any teams with only a single win or loss.
  • The Lions remain the only winless team, going into WK 17.

    :( Boo-hoo. We suck. I thought it would be closer, though.

    But Yay, the Giants lost to the Vikings! That’s a double whammy in my favor.

    I thought for sure it would be a lot closer too. In fact, I thought the Cowboys would win that one. But YAY!! that the Giants lost! Woo! I mean, they still get into the play-offs, but they lost, they lost, they lost! :D

    I hope Favre’s last play in the NFL was an illegal forward pass that was incomplete anyway. And his INT/TD ratio was awesome this year!

    And HE’S in the Pro Bowl. AAAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    He could have gone out with fanfare in Green Bay, but nooooooo, he had to play a sucky season in NY. Smart move, Favre!

    As a far-away (Europe) Packers fan, I am always looking for new sites with Green Bay information.

    Well, it’s always nice to hear of NFL fans in faraway places. :)

    But you probably won’t find much Packers news here. We love football, but my husband and I are huge Patriots fans. :)
