Yep Falcons are done. Now if the Dolphins could just win, the AFC East will remain as the best division! ^_^

Yeah, Rol loves football and hates soccer as he is an European with good taste in sports, not video games.

EDIT: Yup, gg Falcons! They started doing stuff too late.

Well I won't be blindly picking the cowboys anymore.

That's what you get for not listening to me. I am 4-0 for Cowboys games this season, so I know what I am talking about.

Rule of thumb: Cowboys above .500, predict a loss. Cowboys below .500, predict a win. They aren't a bad team, but they seem to be doomed to go 8-8 every season and ultimately miss the playoffs, because Romo never gets the job done in the final week.

On the bright side though, the Cowboys are still the sole leader in the NFC Least. They won as many games as the other three teams combined.

And since the Cowboys are .500 again, it will take a little more thought for the next pick.

I wouldn't count on it. Dallas plays Denver next week and I think we all know Dallas doesn't stand a chance at winning. If they did I would be really happy about it but I don't see much hope with that game.

I can't believe the pats won even with all those injuries, I'm loving it. I don't even care how I do in the prediction league this week :)

Could have been a great comeback by the Falcons, but their drives fizzled out inside the red zone twice in a row. Now let's look at the prediction league where noname2200's strategy is to copy RolStoppable's picks, but don't trust in the Falcons (held true for two weeks in a row now).

11-3: noname2200.
10-4: Miguel_Zorro, NinjaBlade360, RolStoppable.
9-5: Blacksaber, Level1Death, Mendicate Bias, Zelhawks37 (Dolphins), zuvuyeay.

Everyone picked the Saints for MNF, unless noted otherwise. So in other words, only Zelhawks37 has sustained a head injury (that's also how you predict a Ravens loss against the Bills).

So if the Dolphins win, Zelhawks37 moves into #2 and the people tied for #6 will once again get no prediction points. If the Saints win, there will be a total of eight players who will earn points for their records this week.



I'm guessing you guys have been doubting the Dolphins every week. One would think yal would have learned by now.

At this rate no one else is even going to come close to Peyton Manning when it comes to NFL MVP. I'm pretty sure he will break Brady's record for most touchdown passes in a single season I'm guessing he will trow for at least 52. Also the NFC East is a complete joke my guess is the Cowboys will luck out and win it with a lousy 7-9 record and get destroyed by whatever wild card team the will play at home the next week.

How about them rookie receivers on New England? Brady will make sure that they develop nicely.

According to the stats:

Week 1: Dolphins favored by two thirds of the league. Admittedly, that's not much against the lowly Browns.
Week 2: Colts strongly favored, but I think most people were expecting a close game and simply chose the home team.
Week 3: Dolphins slightly favored against the Falcons.
Week 4: Only one guy believes in the Dolphins which is a season low. But the Saints are going strong this year and the game is in New Orleans. Drew Brees is one of the best QBs in the league and the Dolphins' weak spot in the defense is their secondary, so it's not a matchup that plays into the hands of Miami.

I expect to go to 2-2 for Dolphins games this season. I very much dislike the Dolphins, so any loss they suffer is a great thing.



Why do you not like them!? D:
