Full Version: TWITAFCS - Week 13
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Every silver lining has a cloud, so while many of us celebrated tack losses, Jag wins, and gave zero farts about tinhorns and horseshoes, many of us also lamented the hits our TWITAFCS standings would take. If you went against the grain, maybe you made up some ground on the pack. If not, suck it, ravens nonetheless!

Plenty of intrigue this week:

Jags @ Loins: Jags drew national attention with their bold play to steal a win from the visiting ravens. Loins had a nationwide broadcast and held their own against one of the best teams in the league. Expect a hotly contested football game between two young and ascending teams. If the Jags win here, the AFCS suddenly gets interesting. 34-30 Jags

tacks @ Iggles: The tacks are licking their wounds after losing to the Bungles, and remain one of the most confusing teams (for me, at least) to predict. Iggles have proven they can be beaten if forced into mistakes. Are they fading as the season enters the final stretch? How motivated is AJ Brown to face his former teammates? 27-22, Iggles

Brownies @ tinhorns: Speaking of facing former teammates, wise of the Browns to give Watson his first start on the road, that way he doesn't get booed out of the stadium at home. And for anyone familiar with Decembers in Cleveland, expect some rust. Sadly, the tinhorns are just bad enough that they won't be able to take advantage of the situation. Browns win, 17-9

indynoplace @ Cowpokes: Yet another force-feeding of horseshoes in a nationally televised game. If you enjoy watching a rival get trounced or looking at Jeff Saturday's "I just woke up after a three day bender" mug, I guess the networks are keeping these games on the TV for you. Pokes in a laffer, 34-18

Considering I went 1-3 last week and continue to flirt with .500 at 21-16-1, take these predictions with several grains of salt.  Best of luck!
25-12-1 overall

I really want to take the Jags but just can't make myself do it.  I'm taking the pork loins in a close, high scoring, affair.

I really think the tack could pull this off because the birds suck against the run.  If the tacks can control the ball they can win a close one.  But I'm going to have to go birdies.

Browns.  Houston sucks.  Nuff said.

Cowgirls.  Hate 'em but Matt Ryan sucks [BLEEP] and the girls pass rush will beat the snot out of him.

Eagles over Titans

Glad I wasn't the only one who thought Saturday looked like he was coming off a bender.

Lions - cause I don't believe in full consistency.
Iggles  they gud
Browns - tinhorns bad
Cowboys

16-18-1 overall
25-12-1 overall as well.      since im tied with Rico tx right now my picks this week are  

Lions -they are at home

Eagles- they are a playoff team,and at home

cowboys- they are also a playoff team playig at home. 

Browns- Texans don't suck when they play jags,againest other 31 teams they do.
22-15-1

Heck, I’ll go for it and take the Jags

Jags
Eagles
Cowboys
Browns.
Jags--------they could be turning a corner?
Eagles------this is a toss up game for me
Browns-----the Tinhorns can only beat us it seems.
Cowboys---Ryan is a hot mess.


Last week:   2 - 2

Overall:      24 - 13- 1
Coming in at 17-20-1. Sorry for the 6 guys that preceded my picks, I usually provide a template on who to NOT choose. Anyways...

Jags over the Loins. I'm picking them the rest of the way, it's just too fun and I'm not winning this year. But the Jags are!

Cowboys over the colts. Am I the only one here that actually likes Jeff Saturday? The 'boys are SB contenders, and the ponies, mmmm, not so much.

Eagles over the tacks. I bet Tennessee doesn't even put up as good a fight as the Jags did.

Browns over Tinhorns. I mean, it's possible Deshawn needs some game time to get good again. But that's not the way he's used to doing it. Over/under on interceptions for Watson is 2, I'm taking the over, and the Browns still win by 2 scores.
Jaguars
Titans
Cowboys
Browns

Last week: 2-2
Overall: 24-13-1
I'll take the jaguars, eagles, browns, and cowboys.

20-16 coming in, 23-17 going out.
