help on a subject i know nothing about

Post by v.o.c » Wed Nov 03, 2021 3:13 pm

i need some help, the 3 guys i work with are all NFL mad, as a result they have their own little results competition. Every week they pick the team from each game they believe will win. this year I've been roped in. you could write what i know about the NFL on the back of a postage stamp. so far ive picked who will win from who i think would win in a fight. for example if the bears were playing the broncos, id pick the bears because a bear could defiantly kick a horses butt. As of yet im in last place but theres only a couple of points in it. so i thought this week id try and get some advise. if any of you guys could help with week 9 it would be appreciated. All i need is a more educated opinion on who will win each game, if you can add a long winded reason that sort of links to my who would win in a fight system. all the better.

Jets v Colts
Falcons v Saints
Broncos v Cowboys
Patriots v Panthers
Vikings v Ravens
Browns v Bengals
Bills v Jaguars
Texans v Dolphins
Raiders v Giants
Chargers v Eagles
Packers v Chiefs
Cardinals v 49ers
Titans v Rams
Bears v Steelers

Im no gambler level of NFL fan, but for someone who watches his home team every week and has an understanding of the game my picks would be:

Colts because the Jets can't manage a game to save their life
Saints as they are a good team up against a team notorious of losing the game themselves from terrible playing at the end
Cowboys as they lost their first game of the season, and have been hot since
thats a toss up probably panthers because they are playing at home
Ravens as they are a historically good team and the vikings have been very inconsistent the last few weeks
Bengals as they are a slightly better mediocre team vs another insanely mediocre team
Bills because Jags are one of the worst teams in the NFL every year, and this year is no exception to the rule
tossup between two of the worst teams in the NFL so Dolphins cuz it is at their home field
Raiders as they are up against another very inconsistent team
Chargers are doing okay, the eagles don't seem to know what they are doing this year other than losing
Packers as they are one of the best teams in the NFL and this year is also no exception
Cardinals as they can't seem to lose, they are HOT HOT HOT
Rams: *see Cardinals* and even though they are going up against another good team, they are playing at their home. Should be a hell of a good game to watch though!
Steelers as it is a tossup but they have home field

The Texans are awful this year, I'd pick against them just about every week.

aaaand now aaron rodgers, the qb for the packers just tested positive for covid and will miss the game. so that will probably mean the chief will win that one now

i was told that when i did my picks, i went with all your suggestions anyway. its all for bragging rights, but the person in last place at the end of the season has to by a drink for everyone else. also the fact that the qb is the only position i know shows im not really taking seriously, i just think if i can guess and bluff my way to beating one of them their shame will make it all worth while.
