NFL CONFIDENCE PICKS WEEK 17 12/28-30-31-/ 2023

  Sorry for tonight’s game being listed as MONDAY.  In the editing mode it has said SUNDAY all along.  but keeps putting MONDAY in the post.   RAVENS CLINCH AFC NUMBER1 SEED  It has been brought to my attention concerning NFL  Officials.  WHY does the NFL offer up PLAYERS, and COACHES, to attend “after game”  question and answer sessions.  BUT…..WHY NOT the OFFICIALS ?  Is it because “OFFICIALS calls should never be questioned”.  Do they not care how the official oversee the game?     Officiating is NOT easy.  Officials are human and subject to making bad calls, (in error).  Not only do they need to know EVERY rule.  BUT;  must watch for rule infractions every play.       Still I agree OFFICIALS, should make a podium appearance,  just like players and coaches. For those of you who are new here. This is how confidence ranking goes, let me explain. If we were playing an office pool,(which we ARE NOT).  The object is to score the most points. To obtain the score YOU rank the teams by how confident you are a team will win its game.  EXAMPLE:  Say this week we have 16 games.  The team you are most confident will win you would assign the number 16 and follow down to the team you are least confident in and assign that number 1.   You add up the TOTAL CORRECT PICKS.. That would be your score.  We use the Monday night (Last game played) as a TIE BREAKER.  The tie is broken by the closest to the total (that is the COMBINED score of the two participating teams) final score, without going over. YOU can adopt the scoring  described above.  Or, the optional method.  A  negative score for missed games.  We will continue to get a positive score for correct predictions.  EXAMPLE:   if you scored     1 pt on the first game and you had 15 pts on the second game and lost you would still have  1 pt. 1.  HOWEVER. with the same scenario new scoring system would result with a –14 score If we were playing this is how my sheet would look;  My pick will be in bold Capital letters.  you can use circling, underlining, or highlighting.  I will show my correct points in Bold I will fill in my picks Thursday.  Until then feel free to: Just copy and paste for your own Fun Pool Use.  Or to see if you can beat me.

    BENGALS: QB Joe Burrow out for rest of season.  Wrist injury. So far this appears to be a very equally matched season with NO clear cut SUPER BOWL contenders…..(yet). For those of you who are new here. This is how confidence ranking goes, let me explain. If we were playing an office pool,(which we ARE NOT).  The object is to score the most points. To obtain the score YOU rank the teams by how confident you are a team will win its game.  EXAMPLE:  Say this week we have 16 games.  The team you are most confident will win you would assign the number 16 and follow down to the team you are least confident in and assign that number 1.   You add up the TOTAL CORRECT PICKS.. That would be your score.  We use the Monday night (Last game played) as a TIE BREAKER.  The tie is broken by the closest to the total (that is the COMBINED score of the two participating teams) final score, without going over. YOU can adopt the scoring  described above.  Or, the optional method.  A  negative score for missed games.  We will continue to get a positive score for correct predictions.  EXAMPLE:   if you scored     1 pt on the first game and you had 15 pts on the second game and lost you would still have  1 pt. 1.  HOWEVER. with the same scenario new scoring system would result with a –14 score If we were playing this is how my sheet would look;  My pick will be in bold Capital letters.  you can use circling, underlining, or highlighting.  I will show my correct points in Bold I will fill in my picks Thursday.  Until then feel free to: Just copy and paste for your own Fun Pool Use.  Or to see if you can beat me.

NFL CONFIDENCE PICKS WEEK 8 10/26-29-30/ 2023

  49’ERS: QB, Brock Purdy to enter concussion protocol.  Unless Purdy can turn this around before Sunday; the Bengals will likely face Sam Darnold, who has attempted just one pass this year. Very Interesting, very interesting. BUT will that happen? AFTER last weeks showing, or no show.  I should have let my cat TIGGERR do the picks this week.   But she was either taking a nap or pretending to take a nap, (except between 01:30-03:30).  So I had to do the picks on my own.  Another week like last week,  I may have to get up between 01:30 and 03:30 to do  the picks. COLTS: Owner Jim Irsay said QB, Anthony Richardson’s surgery was successful.   He also added, the NFL “admits and understands” they did not make the correct calls at the end of Sunday’s Colts game against the Browns at Lucas Oil Stadium.
