I am not into fantasy football. Most of that is online gambling passed off as "skill". I did like it when we were putting simply win loss with no point spread here just for fun. I don't know what happened with that.

This isn't fantasy football. This is just picking the winners.

I already made my picks, and the rest of you should do yours, too.

I know and this website did that for a couple years, I don't know what happened other than there were not enough people this year.

Made picks where? In another thread?

The Cowboys just aren't good without Romo, and the Redskins have confident since they beat the Giants.

Remember what I said about not taking rivals for granted. Too many defensive mistakes on the Skins part, couldn't capitalize of off turnovers. Offense sputtered all night. I don't see how we beat the Saints and the Giants then lose like this and at home too. Like I said, I think they took them for granted. And the worst play was the kick returning trying to make a play instead of making a fair catch and fumbled which allowed for the winning field goal by Dallas.

Cowchips 19 Skins 16.

Yup.

The NFC East is a nightmare this year. Any of the four teams could get a playoff spot, and with all losing records at this point, that's ridiculous.

The NFC East used to be feared, now we are the doormat of the NFL.

Well that was closer than expected, but 3 turnovers killed us.

Vikings playcalling on that final play...jebus. You are on 3rd down & 10, with no timeouts, well within field goal range, and you need 3 points to tie the game. Why...why oh why would you not just kick the field goal. No, no, instead attempt a pass, get sacked and fumble the ball.

Dwight Freeney back from beyond the grave!!!!!

I didn't see the play, but I'm assuming there's pretty much time to just run the one play.

You do that when the playcaller deems that your team's chances are better for scoring and winning the game *now* rather than in overtime, or you have zero confidence in your kicker.

Vast majority of the time you kick the FG, but there are edge cases where you don't.
