EAGLES: Center Jason Kelce announces retirement to teammates in locker room after Mondays loss to BUCCANEERS. BILLS: Looking for help to shovel stadium snow. LIONS: Congratulations on your FIRST PLAYOFF WIN, in 32 years ! CHIEFS: QB, Patrick Mahomes helmet broken in attempt to score TD. A helmet-to-helmet hit from Miami’s DeShon Elliot. It wasn’t phased, but it was enough to knock a piece of his headgear away in the minus-4 weather. It appeared many people agreed with me about the weather in Kansas City. The Stadium, almost, looked empty. I have seen more people at a high school basketball game. Hats off to the multi-layered, hearty, “true BLUE”, fans who were there to back their team. WEATHER forces postponement of Steelers Vs Bills game to Monday at 16:30. I do not understand why the postponement. Supposedly because they are expecting a 2-3 inch snow fall. Where I live 2-3 inches is nothing. As a teenager we would drive in more snow than that to watch a basketball game. That said the game I would postpone would be the Dolphins Vs Chiefs. I mean sitting at night in an open air stadium in a negative 30-40 mph wind chill. NO THANKS. HOW MANY OF YOU WILL SIGN UP FOR A SUBSCRIPTION TO PEACOCK JUST TO WATCH TONIGHT’S DOLPHIN Vs Chiefs game? I know I would like to watch it but not willing to pay PAY for an extra subscription just for 1 game. Even some players have called this move, INSANE. I can only say if you do fall for this ploy to lure subscribers….WHAT Happens when you end up having to subscribe to multiple channels to watch all NFL games. It could happen. NO more watching on your local stations. Think about it. So as much as I would like tonights game. I WON’T. Yes I know you could sign up for the free trial, Then cancel. But many of us forget to cancel. We don’t watch the channel any more. A friends wife tried this. Forgot to cancel. Until he noticed for 3 months he was being auto charged for the channel, (Not this one), It took him 3 more months to get the channel cancelled. THIS is a PLAY-OFF game, and should be made available to ALL fans who have supported these teams through the season. NOT just the ones who will fall for this ruse, to gain subscribers. COMMANDERS: Looking to hire 49’ers hire 49ers GM Adam Peters as new GM PATRIOTS: Expected to elevate LB coach, to HC., as part of the contractual succession plan after Mayo withdrew from consideration for the Carolina Panthers search last offseason. If this does happen he will become the 1st Black HC for the Patriots. He will also become only the 15th HC for the organization. The annocement is expected at new conference next week. SEAHAWKS: Release HC, Pete Carroll after 14 years. He is currently staying with the team as an adviser PATRIOTS: HC, Bill Belichick and owner Robert Kraft mutually agree to sever ties. After a 24 year association. TITANS: Fire HC, Mike Vrabel, Have asked to meet with RAIDERS interim coach Antonio Pierce 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.
