Week 9

This topsy-turvy 2010 NFL season continues... week 9 is just about in the books with one half of football left to play and the Steelers look to have the Bengals pretty well in hand at 20-7. Yet again... there were some surprising results and there were some not so surprising results.

The Saints pounded the Panthers who (even with the Bills being winless) have to be the worst team in football right now. At least the Bills are playing "well." They're just not getting the breaks... or playing any defense. 7 players picked the Saints and picked up Ws because of it; LRobbins, Wissinger, SAW, kinger 1, BERT#1, Foxalicious, and <3 KeV <3. Bret Favre was able to bring the Vikings back from a 14 point deficit in the 4th quarter to beat the Cardinals in OT, and the Ravens handled the Dolphins with relative ease, 26-10.

In a game in which the winner was not surprising, but the manner in which they laid the wood was, the Packers absolutely destroyed "America's Team." Puh-leeeaase. 45-7? Really?! How long until Wade Phillips is no longer employed? because of that. In another blow out, in which the winner was not surprising but the final score kinda was- the Giants jumped out to quick 21-0 lead on the Seahawks and went on to finish that game victors by a score of 41-7.

In a TOTAL SHOCKER, and handing Gridiron Guru his first lost of the season, "Walter" Peyton Hillis ran for 184 yards and 2 TDs against the Patriots, and the Rookie out of Texas, Colt McCoy, & the Browns downed the Patriots fairly handily, 34-14. This game also handed GoDawgs his 3rd loss of the season and he finds himself in a pretty deep hole with only 4 games left in the Frenzy regular season. Another fairly surprising result came out of Philadelphia, as Michael Vick and the Eagles beat the Colts, 26-24. The Colts now sit at 5-3, tied with the Titans for the lead in the AFC South. The Colts' third loss also matches JayDub's third loss of the season.

With 9 NFL weeks and 8 Frenzy weeks played, there is only one unbeaten player in the Frenzy... <3 KeV <3 continues to roll.

This week, week 10 of the NFL regular season, starts some schedule changes. All of you need to be aware. Picks are due by the time the first game of the week starts. This week begins Thursday Night Football. MAKE SURE TO GET YOUR PICKS IN BY 8:20 pm, Thursday November 11. And for the next several weeks keep an eye on the NFL schedule as Thanksgiving always has a game that starts at noon and there are other Thursday and Saturday night games through the coming weeks. Good luck to everyone moving forward as now is the time to start making a playoff push.

I think the winnings breakdown should be 50/30/20. September 22, 2008 9:21 PM

What do you guys think about keeping the rules the same as far as picking your three teams and each week picking one, but instead of JUST picking a team, you get scheduled against an opponent who is also in the game. The person whose team wins by the most(or loses by the least) gets the victory? September 25, 2008 12:05 PM

I might remove the BYE week and start the playoffs a week early. This would set up a two week opening round, a one week 2nd round, and a two week championship round... 5 weeks of playoffs altogether. This might aleviate some of the tiebreaker issues I'm trying to work around with the current playoff set up. December 22, 2008 11:12 AM
