    I had EasyE at 10, perk at 10, and bluejay at 6.

    Saint Ezzard — 10, not 9. Hit Steelers, Ravens, Bills, Bears, Jaguars, Bengals, Lions, Raiders, Eagles, Chiefs.
    perkdog — 10, not 8. He shorted himself two: Seattle, Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Chicago, Jax, Detroit, Minnesota, Vegas, Philly, KC all hit.
    BLUEJAYWAY — 6, not 5. Hawks, Bears, Jags, Vikings, Raiders, Giants.

    Wait… doesn’t EL Mag have 11?

    Yep he has 11. When bgr did the update El Mago and I both had 10 and we both picked Cowboys and Chiefs so we both got to 11 with the KC win.

    Some very tough games this week starting with Thursday's Bills vs. Lions, should be fun to see everyone's picks. I need to send my scouting team out to gather intel.

    Haha I actually screwed myself with 2 wins I didn't give myself credit for so trust me I'm not trying to cheat 😂😂😂

    Long season brother, a couple years ago I had a commanding lead until the season played out, we don't hand out a winning trophy here early lol

    The Bills and the over was one of those too obvious to go full send with a big bet but of course it double reversed tricked me into over complicating it and I missed a payout over it

    Unofficial Week 2 check-in - 15 of 16 in the books. @perkdog has the official book,
    so treat this as a placeholder until he posts.

    Week 2:
    bgr 10-5
    Canes8387899101 10-5
    Darin 9-6
    galaxy27 9-6
    BLUEJAYWAY 9-6
    ElMagoStrikeZone 8-7
    Saint Ezzard 8-7
    perkdog 8-7
    stevek 7-8

    Season:
    bgr 22
    Canes8387899101 20
    Darin 20
    ElMagoStrikeZone 19
    Saint Ezzard 18
    perkdog 18
    stevek 17
    galaxy27 16
    BLUEJAYWAY 15

    Two more games where the whole room went down together. All nine of us took Baltimore
    (Saints 24-17) and all nine of us took Chicago (Vikings 9-3). Last week it was the Rams
    and the Chargers. Apparently the only thing we can agree on is what we're wrong about.

    Minnesota 9-3. Last week I said I live here and know better than to trust them. Then I
    took the Bears. That one's on me.

    @BLUEJAYWAY, who had last place "looming already," goes 9-6 and was the only man in the
    room on Cleveland over Tampa. He and perk were also the only two off the Chargers, and
    Vegas won by 12. Out of the basement.

    @Darin told stevek he was already 0-1 on the Colts before a game had been played. It
    took overtime on Sunday night, but Chiefs 33-30, ruling upheld.

    galaxy27 and Canes turned in the same sixteen picks except for Atlanta vs Carolina.
    That one game is the entire difference between 10-5 and 9-6.

    Left to play: Giants-Rams tonight. Seven of us have the Rams, EasyE and perk have the
    Giants. Canes and I are tied at 10-5 and on the same side, so we stay tied either way,
    and the two-point lead holds up no matter how it goes.

    I noticed you had *asterisks against a couple of your pics, what's that all about?

    Who you think is going to win but you wanted to pick the other team?

    Chiefs -11.5 on the road. Haven't looked at any week 3 games yet, except for the line mentioned. But at first glance, tough to call the Dolphins straight up with that number.

    Official but unofficial until the board doesn't report any mistakes on my part but I checked this list like Santa Clause so hopefully it's correct

    Tough sledding this week for a few of us while Darin, Eli and Canes are trying to keep up with Milwaukee's best Bgr

    Lots of QB injuries this week highlighted by the performance that Caleb Williams put on, he had us all fooled but thankfully he looks to be ok
