Damn. Knew I forgot something last night. I'll blame it on the Bengals having the bye.

Nothing like a guy who was 7-1 laying down for guy I am trying to hold off in ND

Seems fair

*Note that KC have WON EVERY Coin Toss this season.

Note: Pedge7 has confirmed his 3XKO pick is DALLAS COWBOYS (He already has selected the Vikes 3X > Weeks 1-3-6)
Matt897 overlooked his 3XKO but has confirmed he is locking in the New England PATRIOTS.

ND Pat Bowlen Late Games update: ShinyOnTop has now overtaken the lead in the Tomlinson Divisional Powerplay as there are THREE UPSETS BREWING with TheRedGoldmine rallying from a 19pt deficit to be dead level with BornAgainIdiot. BabyGotDak has Jayzah where she wants him and a Pats win can get BabyGotDak over the line. Osmodiar is working on MNF to finish the job over Jatz as a Pats win is must for the 2017 rookie of the year. BigRedMachine is as good as gold to get a walk off win to join Bipolarbear (who is in the box seat for the HRSQ if the Pats prevail), Knackers and RiggoDeisel44 getting much needed wins after tough results recently.

Swannies, Arakaan and Fuey along with Jayzah all NEED the Packers to WIN to push into MNF. A Packers win will help Osmodiar immensely for HRSQ.

Bloods33, Oscarman and Chism have their respective opponents at arms length as does Hide & Zeke against Galactic.

Lookout for a fast finish by Rashmanadon who can make the Ed Reed Division very interesting if he wins against Billiever.

Starlin Castro .....all good now, I've given the word and your kitten (aka Tom Purrby) has been released unharmed.

ND Marty Schottenheimer Late Games update: Five armwrestle contests delicately poised. Tomatosauceling leads BeLikeMike by 6 after trailing by 12. The Boomer Esiason Division Dogfights biting also. Danielz23 get the walk-off win as Pedge7 & American Crow are set to join him. PowerRanger and Matt897 are hanging in by a thread, needing the Packers to win to push into MNF.

Superfreak has gotten the better of Nobbyiscool thanks to the Chargers victory.

GG.exe has simonoz within reach and if primetime contests work out for the Raider tragic, this could be one of the upset specials of the Conference.

No worries mate.

SNF ND wrap: Underdogs having a great day today as just THREE Division leaders have claimed walked off with victories of the 15 contests already determined.

Chism leads Gridiron Warrior 65-60
Hide & Zeke leads Galactic 74-67
Island Bomber trails ShinyOnTop 60-64
Statsman74 leads Swannies 60-50

Tommorrow I'll be unavailable (yes, my name is Ferris B) for the MNF preview billboard so I leave it to anyone willing to step up and DO IT.

HOT STREAK UPDATE

Lots more success on the Hot Streak page. The 49ers win over the Raiders knocked out sblack and The Red Goldmine on streaks of 14 and 8 other streaks. Another hard luck story was The Dark Knight who moved from 15 to 20, but took a punt on the inconsistent Redskins and he ended there.

Of last weeks leaders statsman74 and Hide & Zeke took their 18 and only took a gamble on 3 games. Those gambles paid off as they took their competition leading score to 21.
Joining them is simonoz who added 4 correct games to his streak to also reach 21.

One behind them is JeffDunne who moved from 17 to 20

On 19 is Kadog (moving from 17) 11sjw (from 16) and Oscarman (also from 16)

This run of form can't last, surely an upset is looming.

3XKO UPDATE - WEEK 9

Following on from the post above Pedge7 has been eliminated after the Cowboys capitulated on MNF against a Titans outfit who had lost their previous 3 games.

There are now 12 people still alive with only the 1 life left. I like the way Moo is tipping as he is the only one who has tipped only one team twice to win (GB) leaving him with a few more options in the coming weeks compared to the others.

Good luck to all

Sorry this is late peeps! Cup Day threw me out and had a funeral to attend today...

Maybe the other 11 guys can just not pick this week and help Moo out?

TNF Week 10: The 5-2-1 Steelers have garnered 65% support against the 6-2 Black Cats even though it's a low CR game. The CR Leaderboard committee have a 5-1 count with 16-6 total. It's a HUGE 16pt swing game in the Steve Atwater Powerplay with Camsmith (56th /4-5) bringing the mustard by amping up the Steelers max CR against Bgt2110 (17th / 4-5). In their earlier meeting in Week 7, the Texan fan got the jump 8-1 on TNF in his comfortable 90-69 victory but with a stunning 1pt upset loss to JME and a three point loss in Week 8 to BeLikeMike, bgt2110 has lost his stranglehold on the Division allowing the door ajar for camsmith to pull level at 4-5 in still an open race.
