AE AE14 Launch & Discussion

[fuey]

Not a bug. But maybe JeffDunne can do something to save stupid people from themselves. That and the "win" option. But it's a legitimate tactic with the 27+ on both teams as you can win both. I was gonna do it this week, but decided against it.

27+ I don't have an issue with... that can be a legit shot in this pass-happy league.

But in the spread, you're just sacrificing one of your 10. I could possibly understand it in certain situations, say you need 3pts to win the $$$ in Wk17, and have two teams vying against eachother, cool I guess. But overall its not necessary, I don't think.

Not sure if it's been mentioned but Where's the depth chart?

Sorry if I missed it, been at Le'Veon Bell's house.

No more depth chart or power ranking this year.
The way we're dealing with absentees this year is all away teams will be default pre-selected for every tipping week.

To stick with Green Bay.
Or flip to Seattle

Was on Green Bay right up until I saw the stat of Seahawks 15-1 at home the last 2 seasons.

Saw? Surely there home record has been rammed down most NFL viewers throats over the last 2 years.

Seems like a sure thing Dirty Bird
16CR Seahawks

I thought people would know by now.
I follow obscure matches that I believe will be close.
I don't watch the games that the media throws down our throats.

16CR Seahawks

I just have this feeling that passing teams will beat the Seahawks this year.

ie. 0-3 start before going on a 13-0 run. (Maybe with 1 or 2 upsets thrown in)

I personally think Seahawks and Niners will struggle this year. Cardinals to win the West!
Broncos should still be strong tho.

Where can we find the ND schedule?

$50 says I get JeffDunne week 1.

16CR Seahawks

I'm chugging the Seahawks Kool aid and I'm only on them for 3CR...

Camera pans over to JeffD reading Riggy's post and then adjusting the ND schedule ......fist pump ...$50.

You have to also remember we were flat out ROBBED last time we played there so we are a moral this time around.....

Nah Seattle are going in with no lube

Just like Manning did in the Superbowl???

Seahawks have one of the best Secondarys in the league and are chock a block full of talent on Defense all round. They really don't have a legitimate massive sack machine that gets 11+ a season but because they all get the numbers when needed it does not matter.

A high powered Defensive team will always beat a high powered Offensive team. Seahawks at home will win this in what could be a close encounter if Matthews and the Packers D turn up but if they don't Seahawks quite easily 34-17.

Plus 12th Man will be going absolutely apeshit, they'll be revealing the SBXLVIII banner on the roof of the CLink pre-game as well...Rodgers is going to have to score early to shut up the crowd or else it's just going to be a nightmare train.

Yes, and what teams do one year is a correlation on what they do the next.

How'd the Patriots go in 2008? Coming off 16-0 with the best offence of all time. Surely they're unstoppable.

Take Green Bay 16CR then and with a 3XKO.

I dare ya!

GG said Seahawks 16. So Green Bay does seem the safe bet now.
Might make the change.
