Nice one Wallflower

I'm throwing the red flag. On further review which 6 division winners do you want? I guess you mean 7 or are you excluding the NFC West as Arizona play Thursday?

Might dock myself a point, meant 8 division winners  (typo)  - think the old east, west and central divisions are gone

I suppose onus on me to get ball rolling:  Division Winners seem pretty clearcut this year (ironically apart from the fabulous AFC South and NFC East)

AFC East  :-  Patriots
AFC North :-  Bengals
AFC South :-  Colts
AFC West  :-  Broncos
AFC Wild Cards : Chiefs, Bills
AFC Winner: - Bengals

NFC East  :-  Eagles

  (2.3)Washington @ Chicago     (1.7)     -  Chicago

6 entrants. themightymac didn't put in weekly selections so as per precedent last year is give 2points less than the lowest score.

If anyway wishes to enter they can join being awarded 2.1 points for this week (same as themightymac). It is slight advantage but things are pretty much as they were.

Lance leads the way after week 14 -with a very good 10.3 courtesy of 5 out of 7 winners.

As always - check your own scores.

I missed the weekly picks, I thought it was just the opening post. My mistake. Never mind, the great Arkle overcame a bad handicap mark with alarming regularity.

Week 15 Matches

From first to last, last to first. Lance and therhino swap places on the weekly picks. therhino selecting all seven winners this week. However Lance in France retains first place although the pack are closing in. Badsworth consistency being rewarded with a very comfortable 2nd place siiting on the shoulder of the lead.Newcomer guernseyw has bravely gone for the Bengals to win it all. Its a brave shout, but is the only man on the Redskins so if that goes his way he could be into the main pack as early as next week.Studious is a Texans fan for next two weeks, as he will pull 3 pts on everyone on the field.themightymac hampered by misisng week 1 sits at the bottom - nothing the Packers couldn't fix by the end, though his AFC Champion pick - the Colts - looks very much like a long shot right now.

Week 16 Matches........  be sure to get them in - putting them in early this week given the week that's in it

(2.2)  Washington   @  Philadelphia  (1.8)
(1.6)  New England  @  NY Jets (2.4)
(1.0)  Carolina     @  Atlanta  (3.0)
(1.7)  Houston      @  Tennessee (2.3)
(2.3)  Green Bay    @  Arizona (1.7)
(2.3)  NY Giants    @  Minnesota (1.7)
(2.3)  Cincinnati   @  Denver (1.7)

Had a think about these, fancy a few upsets :-

• Philadelphia
• NY Jets
• Carolina

Ok, Swagger let you in - hope others don't mind - seems ok to me! You get 2 points less than lowest score for the weeks you missed, but you
have to accept that you have slight advantage with Texans / Redskins being more likely back in Week 14. Packers to beat Chiefs is quite a big shout imo
so fair play if that brings you home - could not be considered after-timing. Tremendous start with best score of the week - calling all matches correctly
except the Packers and Cardinals - does not look good for Rodgers and co, if you don't mind me saying.

Lance still holds onto the lead, solid rather than spectacular, but will be more tahn happy at this stage. Overall you just need to keep in touch and hope
your big selections come in - the mightymac had a horrible week and riding the Packers and Colts looks to be in trouble already. Defending champion Wallflower has
had a mediocre performance so far. the rhino after a poor start looks to be in form as does late joiner guernseyw. Badsworth had reason for confidence
- are the Cardinals the best team in the NFL right now - you could certainly argue that case and he is the lone selector of the team in the desert.

As always - check your own scores in case any errors, but believe all is correct.

Bit hard to pick out 7 key games this week - there aren't that many and hard to call many of the matches. Decided to use all  matches 1 point for picking the winner - so 16 points available this week.

Takes a bit of time to do the full editing but after Week 17 and the Division Winners and Wild-Cards known the standings are as follows  (I'll do the full table so you can check scores when I get a chance, run off my feet at the moment):

1.  Lance in France    55.8 pts
2.  guernseyw          54.4 pts
3.  Studious_1         54.3 pts
4.  therhino           53.7 pts
5.  Badsworth          51.6 pts
6.  Swagger            51.5 pts
7.  Wallflower         48.5 pts
8.  themightymac       43.8 pts

Bit of twist this week .

(1) Correct Pick (awarded pts in bracket)
(2) Incorrect Pick  then  -1 point  (i.e. 1 point deducted)
(3) Additional option of "no call" then you get 1 point

  (2.1pts)  Kansas City Chiefs       @    Houston Texans  (2.9pts)
  (2.2pts)  Pittsburgh Steelers      @    Cincinnati Bengals (2.8pts)
  (1.7pts)  Seattle Seahawks         @    Minnesota Vikings (3.3pts)
  (2.4pts)  Green Bay Packers        @    Washington Redskins (2.6pts)

Apologies for delay in full update (its more to check your scores and to have an quick reference on the opposition - if you are in the shake-up)

Swagger had the best selections for Division Winners and Wild cards but late and missing entry has caused him dearly. Lance's overall 33.8 pipped
the rhino's 38.7 in the regular season and he still hangs onto top stop. Latecomer guernseyw has impressed and Studious_1 has definite momentum.

So getting down to the business end now. NFC is generally seen as a 3-horse race between Panthers, Cardinals and Seahawks so Swagger and
mtghtymac - flying the flag for Green Bay - look to be underdogs from that perspective. Colts being eliminated and I'm afraid writing is on the
wal for Swagger unless he comes in with 100% record from here on it and we have some unexpected results in the play-offs.

Perhaps the one to watch is mid-table Badsworth sole selector of the Cardinals and alos has first seed Denver - so definitely still in contention.

Good luck all.

(I merged the Week 14-17 scores into one column).

Lance gets all 4 correct in Wild Card Weekend to fend off the pack that were closing in. But it was all about the Steelers and Bengals,
Bengals hold on then both Studious_1 and guernseyw would have passed Lance by. Their demise also signals the probable end of
defening champion Wallflower's hopes - he was well in again if they came through. Badsworth could also still get into the conversation
particularly if Arizona come through.

As usual - check your own scores.

Same format for this week.

(1) Correct Pick (awarded points in bracket)
(2) Incorrect Pick  then  -1 point  (i.e. 1 point deducted)

Lance still leads but probably not the favourite?? 100% correct in the Divisional Play-offs yielded a tasty 8.2 points for therhino and he
leap-frogs Studious and guernsey into second place. Of the leaders he is the only one with a potential NFC Winner in Carolina. He also has AFC
favourites in New England as has Studious, Lance flying the flag for the Broncos and to keep therhino at bay..

Poor performance from Wallflower, but themightymac managed to get all selections wrong and -4.0 points sunk him to the the bottom.guernseyw may have run his race since his Bengals / Packers call is finished. But Badsworth in fifth is lurking dangerously - he has been alone in selecting the Cardinals and could potentially ride them to victory if he can keep within touching distance.

As usual - check your own scores.

Lance has led from the start to finish - always expecting that he may be overhauled at some stage but nobody could sustain a challenge - but
its still not over therhino could potentially nick it in the end.

Studious challenge evapoarted with the demise of the Patriots. The lurking Badsworth was also still in contention as long as the Cardinals
were still in hunt, but as we know their hopes got dashed early.


As usual - check your own scores.
