Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

Ok, we did it last year, we're doing it again.

Case you forget, here's how it works.

You pick all 12 playoff teams, and assign them point values 1-12. Every time a team wins, you get the total number of points that you assigned them. So the 4 teams that you think are going to lose in the first weekend should be your 1,2,3,4 and then build from there. Remember, the 4 teams with byes can only possibly play 3 games (divisional round, champ. round and super bowl) whereas the wild card/3rd & 4th division winners get 4, so it might be to your advantage to list some of the teams playing in round one higher if you think they'll make it further.

Person with the most points at the end wins.

I'll submit my picks later in the week, picks will be accepted up until kickoff of the early game saturday, but it's never too early to start thinking about it.

Sounds fun! Steelers all the way!

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

little help for you all

Wild Card Weekend
Saturday, January 8
4:30 p.m. on ABC -- St. Louis (8-8) at Seattle (9-7)
8 p.m. on ABC -- N.Y. Jets (10-6) at San Diego (12-4)

Sunday, January 9

If you don't know who the other 4 teams in the playoffs are, this might not be the game for you, but, nevertheless, the follwing teams have byes and will play the next weekend.

New England
Pittsburgh
Atlanta
Philadelphia

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

Since four teams aren't playing the first week, do you even need list all 12 teams for the first round?

:lol:

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

*sighs

This is hard, there are so many teams here that have average records, but are superb. Green Bay has so many 4th Quarter comebacks, it will be interesting to see what happens. I think Green Bay has the potential to take the NFC, but hell, the Eagles stand in their way. And Pittsburgh is going down, I think anyway. They are 15 and 1, due for a good loss.

Anyway....I never win these things, but here I go:

Minnesota (1)
Seattle (2)
Denver (3)
St. Louis (4)
New York Jets (5)
San Diego (6)
Atlanta (7)
Pittsburgh(8)
Indianapolis (9)
Philadelphia (10)
Green Bay (11)
New England (12)

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

The Green Bay Packers will win the Superbowl (this is the third straight year I have predicted this).

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

Yeah, I hear that. The Bears were supposed to win the last 19 superbowls.

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

You don't get to change your rankings from round to round.

Thought that was implied, sorry.

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

Yeah, I figured it out. I didn't do this last year I don't think, so I just wasn't sure. It made sense when I figured it out though. Thanks. We're still waiting for your rankings and Stu's and Joeiss's as well. There have been more people who got involved with this in the past. I guess once the weekend comes they'll show.

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

what teams do u guys think are going to go to the super bowl

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

New England and Green Bay or Philadelphia.

Just look at the teams that everyone gave 11 or 12 points too.......

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

Pittsburgh, idiots.

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

49'ers.


:sneaky:

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

We shall see, we shall see......

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

Is it me or has this been a pretty boring season? I suppose a lot of it had to do with the NFC being so horrible, but it wasn't really that exciting, and the playoffs race wasn't either.

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

1. Denver
2. St. Louis
3. Minnesota
4. New York
5. Seattle
6. Atlanta
7. San Diego
8. Indianapolis
9. Pittsburgh
10. Green Bay
11. New England
12. Philadelphia

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

I'm going to disagree, and meet you halfway. Personally, I think there have been better seasons. But there have been a handfull of fun games to watch this season, and Monday Night always is interesting.

And, I think it's even better this year beacuse everyone thinks that the "NFC Sucks." Well, that's halfway true. I mean, a lot of teams records DO NOT reflect their talent......hell, Green Bay went what, 1 and 4 at the beginning of the season?

There's one thing you can always count on in football, and that is having strange upsets, and unexpected happenings. I don't know who will win the NFC, but it will be interesting. I don't know who will win the AFC, but with the immense levels of talent, it's really going to be a few coin tosses, some luck, and a good day. Which is why I forecast a loss for Pittsburgh, they've had WAY to many close ones this season.

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

These are who I want to win, not who I think will win.

Pittsburgh
Green Bay
Indianapolis
San Diego
Atlanta
Seattle
Philadelphia
New York
Minnesota
St. Louis
Denver
New England

Always been a Pack, Charger, and Steeler fan.

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

Hehehe.

I was wondering if anyone would notice...

If they lose....I will be the luckyest person ever...



Go 9'ers... :sneaky:

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

gotta go with Indy as the top team, esp since they WOULD have one more win than NE, Pitt, Philly if they go all the way

1 - Jets
2 - Vikings
3 - Seahawks
4 - Broncos
5 - Packers
6 - Rams
7 - Chargers
8 - Falcons
9 - Steelers
10 - Eagles
11 - Patriots
12 - Colts

btw, I believe I whooped complete arse last year ;)

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

That is a good point. Sometimes you can never tell who's going to win the game, no matter who the teams are. I think that the biggest upset this year was Miami vs. New England.

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

Are you inferring that Typhoid has some sort of "stupid?"

Irony is bliss today!

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

You're stupid.

;)

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

Seattle has just been eliminated in a 27-20 lose to St. Louis.

Woot woot, I have a couple of points already.

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

Damn, the Chargers lost. I have no points yet. I knew the Jets weren't a horrible team, but I had hope in the Chargers. You never know until the game is over huh. Well at least both games were close.

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

I'm so mad. The jets have a history of sucking in the playoffs, and the damn chargers had a field goal right there.........

I cried after that one.

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

It would have been nice to see the Chargers move on. They're one of those teams that I don't think I could ever hate because I never see any attitude from them.

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

wow, San Diego disappointed me. that field was soggy as hell, though...and it took Gates out of the game completely. big men cant cut like that when their momentum gets going when the ground slips underneith them

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

Re: Stonecutter's 2005 NFL Playoff pool
 

Wow, Typhoid and Acebot were the only ones who picked the Jets/Chargers game right.

Jason, you don't count because you still had the Chargers higher than 4.

Cut that meat! Cut that meat!
