AE AE14 Launch & Discussion

[Chism]

That was a shit effort tho. Like others said earlier, Rams and cardinals gave the Seahawks a fight and or beat them last year. That game was a test of where the packers are. They're not a contender. The NFC north is wide open now.

Disagree, the Packers will still be up there, you cannot judge them off 1 game against the best D in the NFL. They will be fine.

Every year a top team takes an opponent to easy and the Cards loss year was 1 out of the box for the Seahawks at home. Carroll does seem to become a bit complacent against the lower teams but gee do they lift for big games and are hard to beat. It will take a mighty effort to beat Seattle at home this year or anywhere really IMO.

 

[Chism]

That D is still there...

Yep, but the Tampa D is not shabby at all either.

The game is certain UNDERS with a final score around 10-7 i reckon either way! If Cam misses it is a genuine 50/50 call who wins in Tampa.

Fair enough. But I'm putting a black sharpie thru the packers. They are not super bowl bound.

They will SMASH the Jets at home next week and i fully expect a 30+pts score from Rodgers in CT as i run into Balmain who has him coming off a 7 pt game when he dodges me in the opening week.

You need to yell at GG to rig the schedule. It's what the pros do and why you'll be getting destroyed everywhere on week 3.

 

[twarby]

Yeah but it's true.

90% of the time home team wins 9-7, 10-6, 11-5. So average 10-6. But 10-6 itself happens almost all the time out of those. The rare week it's 8-8. And rarer the away teams win 9-7 or 10-6. Maybe once a season.

I have this feeling I am going to go two strikes down this week

Thats the best position you can be in after week 1....apparently Dirty Bird

 

[Blacky]

Not now that you can back up picks

1 down.
2 down doesn't give you a life if you hit the landmine.
1 down does.

 

[Blacky]

Surely that is irrelevant now that you can select the same team

Pffft, AE amateurs.

Denver and who? Will fail you?

 

[Blacky]

Still living off the glory from wins from when there were 6 people in the comp?

I haven't picked Denver. My concern is Detroit.

 

[statsman74]

A couple of old-timers banging heads this week with me going against Sven; 2008 champ vs 2010 runner up.

Tough first start for me, Sven always seems to go well.

You're going to have to be more specific... I have more than one AE comp victory.
