NFL 2016 Pick'em League!

Football season is almost upon us, which means it's time for our Pick'em league competitions.

This thread is for the main event: the week-by-week regular season Pick'em League.

Each week I'll post the schedule, and those who want to enter just need to PM me the 16 teams they think will win. After the final game on the Monday, I'll tally up the scores and announce the winner(s).

Deadline for entering each week is Wednesday at midnight EST. I'll post everyone's predictions in this thread before the start of the Thursday game, and like last year, all picks / scores will be online in a Google Doc which I will share when I have everyone's first picks.

Draws will count as a loss.

Anyone can enter at any point, there's no season long commitment, so feel free to play for a week and decide it's just not your thing (though I believe everyone last year continued for the 4 weeks we played).

This week's schedule:

Panthers (0 - 0) at Broncos (0 - 0)
Buccaneers (0 - 0) at Falcons (0 - 0)
Vikings (0 - 0) at Titans (0 - 0)
Browns (0 - 0) at Eagles (0 - 0)
Bengals (0 - 0) at Jets (0 - 0)
Raiders (0 - 0) at Saints (0 - 0)
Chargers (0 - 0) at Chiefs (0 - 0)
Bills (0 - 0) at Ravens (0 - 0)
Bears (0 - 0) at Texans (0 - 0)
Packers (0 - 0) at Jaguars (0 - 0)
Dolphins (0 - 0) at Seahawks (0 - 0)
Giants (0 - 0) at Cowboys (0 - 0)
Lions (0 - 0) at Colts (0 - 0)
Patriots (0 - 0) at Cardinals (0 - 0)
Steelers (0 - 0) at Redskins (0 - 0)
Rams (0 - 0) at 49ers (0 - 0)

Remember, when you PM me, I just need the name of the team you think will win. Please also try to spell the team name correctly (identical to the above) with capitalization. Last year some people used nicknames (some nice, some not so nice) for teams and whilst it was amusing, it did cause the winner tracking system to fail when I didn't spot the mistake!

Be prepared everyone to be beaten severely by the best prognosticator in sports....... Not me, but someone is better than all of us.

My picks are in.

[Brian37]

Make sure you pick teams and not your nose, and if you pick your nose, wipe it off with a tissue and wash your hands.

I have PM'ed a bunch of people who played last year, so hopefully we'll have some more competitors. Currently we have 4 of us.

Listen people, I didn't get into this just for the pocket lint. Lets have some fun here.

OK, I should be good to go.

[Brian37]

Ok Steelers fans, Skins have you up first, got something to say, say it to my face...... so I can run and hide and scream for my MOMMY!

[Crossless2.0]

I'm not a Steelers fan (I have my own cross to carry with the Vikings), but I'll be glad to shit on the 'Skins since no pick 'em season at AF would be complete without it.

This is for you, Brian:

"My my
At Waterloo Napoleon did surrender
Oh yeah
And I have met my destiny in quite a similar way
The history book on the shelf
Is always repeating itself
Waterloo I was defeated, you won the war
Waterloo promise to love you for ever more
Waterloo couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo knowing my fate is to be with you
Waterloo finally facing my Waterloo"
