Remember, this week starts the Thursday game of the week. Nobody actually has Baltimore or Atlanta left, so it doesn't impact us this week.
If you don't want to pick a Thursday team, you still have until 10:00AM PST on Sunday to make your pick.

It's amazing what can happen when you fire the offensive coordinator.

9 out of 10 times i still make that pick. . .i can now look back and see the missed warning signs though. i just didn't want to believe that tampa bay is the best team in the nfc.

They're not. Atlanta is, with Philly now second.
Looks like I missed another lovely evening in DC tonight….

Seth is the only participant who's already picked the Bears in previous weeks, so I'm not sure what he's getting at here…
And no, I didn't forget to pick.
NEVERMIND: I think Seth wants to know why we didn't all pick the Bears. And that's a pretty damn good question. It's in direct violation of my "Never pick a road team with an available home team double digit favorite still available…"

I see. It must have been in error because the deadline is kickoff of the first game on
Sunday.

Smackie still has to stomach a night of Norv Turner to advance, but since I'm fixing to be on the slopes tomorrow and through the rest of the week, I thought I should update this week now.
Eliminated in Week 11
Nobody yet. Smackie still needs the Chargers to win.
Picks
For the first time, the entire pool picked a different team:
1 - Dallas (Seth)
1 - NY Jets (Godsshoeshine)
1 - Kansas City (jeffml)
1 - San Diego (Smackie)
So who's left?
In the $100/$5 pool:
Seth
Smackie (maybe)
And in just the $5 pool:
jeffml
Godsshoeshine
There are a lot of mid-week games this week, so pick often, pick early.
