2023 NFL Pick'Em


5fouls

Recommended Posts

A small group of us did a season long pick'em against the spread last year and it was a lot of fun.  @KDBtook home the trophy in a hard- fought battle.

Looking to do the pick'em contest again this year, as well as adding in a weekly survivor pick as a second contest.  Not going to set either up on an official site, just manage them through this thread each week. 

Some rules

  • Everyone can play.
  • You can play either or both
  • Survivor rules are picking the straight-up winner, and you cannot use the same team more than once.  
  • Odds for pick-em will be based on the consensus spreads shown on sportsline.com at the time I get around to looking them up on Tuesday or Wednesday.  The official odds we use will be the ones I post in this thread.  So, if I post the odds on Tuesday night and a key player gets hurt on Wednesday, the odds I post on Tuesday are still valid for our contest.  You can, however, edit your pick up until gametime.  But, if you edit please update your original post AND send a second post letting me know what you are doing.
  • All valid entries will be based on the time of your post and/or the edit stamp on your post.
  • If you miss the deadline for Thursday night's game in either, you can still pick the Sunday and Monday games
  • If you miss the deadline for Sunday, you can still pick for Monday's game, though your pick'em score will suck for the week, and have limited choices for survivor
  • If you miss an entire week in pick'em, you can still play and just prove how good you are by spotting everyone a week and still taking home the trophy.
  • If you miss an entire week in survivor, you will be considered deceased.  This includes missing Week 1.  You miss it, you cannot join survivor.
  • I will make every attempt to send out reminders late Saturday or early Sunday for those that have not yet submitted your weekly entry.  This differs from last year when I tried to do reminders before Thursday night.  I'm not going to do that this year.  If you miss Thursday, you miss Thursday.
  • I reserve the right to make fun of weekly pick'em scores below 5.

I could have, but that would have been so un-me 🙂 

I know I can only use them once, but a 7 point dog at home? The temerity! 

But, by 'straight up', the Survivor rules mean if the Bears lose by 1, you still lose and are out of the contest.  By contrast, if they lose by 1 in the Pick'em contest, you win.
