From both a pool and personal standpoint, I stand to gain by ATL winning.

 

This pool is more about the confidence points than the picks. In the morning games, Nakd, Rc and I all missed just three games... but mine were high confidence games.

 

Nakd has Phi for 15. RC has Atl for 5. That'lll decide which wins this week.

 

Go Atlanta

 

I thought the Pats looked beatable.

Kansas City had a good win.

Denver looked pathetic.

Minnesota looked bad.

SF was impressive. They were dominated statistically but StL only managed worthless FGs.

Dallas had a good win.

 

This is what I hate about football pools. It forces me to root for teams I want to lose.

Yesterday, after StL scored two FGs, I wanted them to lose for being inept. They were begging to be beaten. Unfortunately, I had 13 points on them.

 

I got 15 on ATL.. that will pull me from teh bottom rung.

 

The weekends worst teams:
Denver, Minnesota, St Louis and Green Bay.

 

Everybody looked beatable. The Colts, while looking good, were held to 3 points for 35 minutes. I didn't see the Pats game, but I think they along with the Colts and Steelers are still favorites.

Of course, with the NFL and football in general, a single injury can end a teams chances.

 

And yes, Minnesota and Green Bay looked lousy. Some biased officiating in Detoilet pretty much guaranteed a Lions win. Reminded me of the Michael Irvin era in Dallas.
