GIANTS: Have biggest comeback since 1949. Starting the season with a 40-0 loss against the Cowboys last week, the Giants managed to extend that scoreless streak to 60 points before they scored against the Cardinals. According to NFL RedZone, the last team to get outscored at least 60-0 to start a season was the 1978 Baltimore Colts, who were outscored 80-0 in the first two games of their season. Avoiding an 0-2 start
The Giants trailed by 21, and had not come back to win after trailing by 20 or more since Nov. 19, 1950 vs. the Baltimore Colts, according to Fox Sports. They hadn’t come back from 21 down since 1949, when they did it against the Chicago Cardinals.
JETS: QB Aaron Rodgers out for rest of season with TORN ACHILLES. (We will wait and see).    COULD this lead to RETIREMENT??
For those of you who are new here. This is how confidence ranking works, let me explain.
If we were playing an office pool,(which we ARE NOT). The object is to score the most points. To obtain the score YOU rank the teams by how confident you are a team will win its game. EXAMPLE: Say this week we have 16 games. The team you are most confident will win you would assign the number 16 and follow down to the team you are least c onfident in and assign that number 1.  You add up the TOTAL CORRECT PICKS.. That would be your score.  We use the Monday night (Last game played) as a TIE BREAKER. The tie is broken by the closest to the total (that is the COMBINED score of the two participating teams) final score, without going over.
YOU can adopt the scoring described above.
Or, the optional method. A  negative score for missed games. We will continue to get a positive score for correct predictions. EXAMPLE:  if you scored   1 pt on the first game and you had 15 pts on the second game and lost you would have a negative 14 points
If we were playing this is how my sheet would look; My pick will be in bold Capital letters. you can use circling, underlining, or highlighting. I will show my correct points in Bold
I will fill in my picks Thursday. Until then feel free to: Let me know If I miss a match up in anyway
