Try to guess the score of each game. If someone actually guesses one of the games correctly they win. If multiple people get any of the games right they split the pot.
Of course, winning this week won't make next week's games any fun. :)

p.s. I won't be tending this thread, so please copy & paste the teams in your reply so it's easier to award the winner(s). Thanks & good luck.

lol. beautiful. someone else has read that statistically speaking the most common score in the NFL is 20-17. It only happens something like 5 out of every 300 games or so, but that's 4.5 times more common then the next most common score pairing in the NFL.

you get a thumbs up from me. lol


my predictions?

20-17 home teams (as that's slightly more common then 20-17 with a road team winning)

That's interesting about the 20-17 score...but it's also no fun. It also makes sense, since I'd bet most offensive productions are averaging around 20 points per game.

it's not the "average" score. it's literally the "most common". as in out of 100 games played 20-17 home team winning will show up a little more then 1 time on average (my memory of how common it is is fuzzy but i think it comes in at about 5 times out of 300 games played... though it might be 5 times out of 200... i don't really remember). Which is slightly more common then 20-17 road team winning. and about 4 times more common then the next most common score (which i'm really stretching my mind to recall but i think it was 21-17)

I know it's not the average score. I was saying it makes sense that the most common score is close to the general average offensive production for teams. If the average point scored per game in the NFL every year was 10, then you'd probably expect to commonly see games of about 10-7, right? Sorry my point wasn't clear.

I had the spread right on the Eagles - Boys game, off by a TD a piece.

38-34 Cardinals certainly looks like a possibility.

Well my NFC picks were WAY off, but AFC ones were pretty close. Still not spot on, though...urgh.
