The gnu gknows. :smiley:

Sorry for the delay. These are the week 1 results, I haven’t done week 2 yet. Thanks for the self scoring, it made it quicker, although I did double check (there was one error and some forgot to subtract 10 as bonus for picking the winner correctly).

VarlosZ 115 (self score was off, counted NYJ 13 (actual 24) as 9 when it should be 11.

I calculate my Divisional week score at 30+27+24+11=92 -40 =52

20 + 8 - 10 = 18
21 + 3 = 24
18 + 10 - 10 = 18
17 + 4 = 21

81, ugh I thought wildcard weekend was supposed to be abnormally bad.

Sorry I didn’t come in and calculate my score. I actually did the math but never posted for some reason. But I got 76, not 86.

I’ll put the actual scores in bold with my guesses in parentheses.
NYJ 24 - (13) = 11
Cin **14 **- (20) = 6
11 + 6 = 17

Bal **33 **- (24) = 9
NE **14 **- (20) = 6
9 + 6 = 15 - 10 (correct winner) = 5

GB 45 - (31) = 14
Ari 51 - (17) = 34
14 + 34 = 48

Phi 14 - (19) = 5
Dal **34 **- (23) = 11
11+ 5 = 16 - 10 (correct winner) = 6

17 + 5 + 48 + 6 = 76

And for the divisional round:

Bal **3 **- 24 = 21
Ind **20 **- 31 = 11
21 + 11 = 32 - 10 (correct winner) = 22

NYJ **17 **- 20 = 3
SD 14 - 21 = 7
3 + 7 = 10

Dal **3 **- 17 = 14
Min 34 - 24 = 10
14 + 10 = 24 - 10 (correct winner) = 14

Ari **14 **- 23 = 9
NO 45 - 35 = 10
10 + 9 = 19 - 10 (correct winner) = 9

22 + 10 + 14 + 9 = 55

Actual:

Baltimore 3 / Indy 20, so 14 + 4 = 18
Jets 17 / San Diego 14, so 3 + 10 = 13
Dallas 3 / Minnesota 34, so 25 + 10 = 35
Arizona 14 / New Orleans 45, so 13 + 14 - 10 = 17

18 + 13 + 35 + 17 = 83 points for the week.
I’d have done better just picking scores at random.

At least the FF challenge is going o.k.

Just like Arizona and Green Bay overscoring the first week, Baltimore and Dallas (and Arizona to a lesser extent) underscoring this week is messing everybody up.

Baltimore Ravens 3 vs. Indianapolis Colts 20 – 14 + 10 = 24
New York Jets 17 vs San Diego Chargers 14 – 1 + 19 = 20
Dallas Cowboys 3 vs. Minnesota Vikings 34 – 27 + 2 = 29
Arizona Cardinals 14 vs. New Orleans Saints 45 – 6 + 18 = 24

24 + 20 + 29 + 24 = 97 - 30 = 67

Yeesh. Got 3 of the game right once again but the point totals killed me. Fucking Chargers just killed me.

Baltimore Ravens 3 vs. Indianapolis Colts 20 – 18+11=29
New York Jets 17 vs San Diego Chargers 14 --5+5=10
Dallas Cowboys 3 vs. Minnesota Vikings 34 --18+7=25
Arizona Cardinals 14 vs. New Orleans Saints 45 --10+10=20

29+10+25+20=84-40=44

Better but not great considering I got 4 games right.

Baltimore 3 / Indy 20 = 18
Jets 17 / San Diego 14 = 9
Arizona 14 / New Orleans 45 = 14 + 16 - 10
Dallas 3 / Minnesota 34 = 17 + 21

= 85

  • 68 from week 1 = 153

I’m doing about as well as last year.

This Week:

NO 31 Min 24
Indy 23 NYJ 13
