Week 4 Prediction Games

And we're back for week 4.  Apologies for the delay in getting this newest round of games up.  We've got what I think is a very intriguing group of games that could be tough to call.

Once again, thanks to everybody for following the formatting rules.  We had one late entrant who didn't for one game and wasn't given credit for it.  So, make sure to follow the rules.  Since people have been doing such a good job with the formatting, I've moved the rules to the bottom of the post.  Keep up the good work with the formatting and all will be well in the world.

This week's games will likely tell us whether some of these upstart teams are contenders or pretenders.  One of the games I find myself most interested in is Dallas at Denver.  The Broncos are 3-0, while the Cowboys remain a bit of a question mark (both wins being over less than stellar teams).  Another matchup has the Jets heading to New Orleans in a huge battle of 3-0 squads.

Also, just a reminder that as always all times listed are pacific.  On to the games.

St. Louis @ 49ers - Sunday 10/4 1:15pm

Green Bay @ Minnesota - MNF 10/5 5:30pm

San Diego @ Pittsburgh - SNF 10/4 5:20pm

Baltimore @ New England - Sunday 10/4 10:00am

NY Jets @ New Orleans - Sunday 10/4 1:05pm

Dallas @ Denver - Sunday 10/4 1:15pm

Star-divide

IMPORTANT NEW RULE

Up until now, folks have just posted their scores in any particular fashion, although howtheyscored has made requests for a specific format.  Given the amount of time and effort howtheyscored has to put into determining the final results, I am implementing a requirement for how to format your scores (based on the spreadsheet howtheyscored has created).  If you fail to follow this format, any incorrectly formatted scores for the week will be disqualified.  The format is "Team A @ Team B: A score - B score."  That basically is visitor @ home: visitor score - home score."  Here's an example of how to do it:

Using Baltimore @ New England below, if you think New England will win 24-14, here's how it HAS to look:

Baltimore @ New England: 14 - 24

If you think Baltimore will win 24-14, it needs to appear as this:

Baltimore @ New England: 24 - 14

If you'd like you can bold the winner (Baltimore @ New England: 14 - 24), but that is not required (although probably a good backup in case you reversed the score by accident.

If you make a mistake in the formatting I'll reply to your score reminding you to correct it.  To correct it, simply reply to your picks and post them in the correct format.  Do not post your scores again at the bottom of the thread.  I'll make sure and include these directions each week so people do not forgot and lose out on points.  As I mentioned above, we're doing this to make howtheyscored's life easier in figuring out the scores.  The # of regular commenters has increased dramatically since last season, so we're anticipating a greater # of prediction contest participants.  While this is a new rule, I don't think it's all that difficult for folks to follow it.

If anybody has any questions at all about this, or anything related to the contest, let me know (ninersnation@gmail.com) and I'll answer them.

that sounds nice

I haven’t been up to the mountains nearly as much in the last few years as I would really like to. Were you camping? I ought to do that soon. But the problem is I don’t like going away during the fall because I love watching football so much and I don’t want to miss any of it. That’s it, this spring I’m going camping! Several times!

I was there for my sister’s wedding. We stayed in south Lake Tahoe and pretty much spent four straight days partying. It was an exceptionally nice vacation.

You kidding? I spent all my money on nice clothes, food, and a hotel. I had, like, a total of $40 free for the rest, and a bunch of that went into tipping people.

I did spend some time checking out Harrah’s, though. Played a couple dollars. Lost them all. It was cool.

I’m much better at gambling with other people’s money, anyway.

South LT

There’s this inn in South Lake Tahoe that has access to a private beach and has a little grassy knoll where they do wedding ceremonies. Amazing spot.

Context, people. More context is good. Less context is bad. If you're willing to be reductive, then you're willing to be wrong.

apparently I was already a part of it

since we live 4 blocks apart

A hearty thank you to Rich Aurilia for all the good memories, and to the Niners for finally getting the uni's (mostly) right.

Sure

You can change them to anything that mathematically gives you the same raw for every game.

Otherwise… no.

I can’t do that, I want to think we are better than GB so if we pick GB then that’s saying GB is better than us!

by Ten-Man on Oct 3, 2009 12:07 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Not saying that, it's the Any Given Sunday pick!

Their defense is capable of being better and their passing game as well. No 8 in the box for the Vikes!

Just to rant, I hope it’s Brett Favre suck fest in the broadcast booth this weekend. I hate Brett Favre but the Packers hype has annoyed me like no other this off season. WTF makes the Packers an upper tier team? They were 6-10 last year and brought back the same paper soft, horrific, awful defense this years. Dom Capers . . . please! Raji is fat and on the bench, clay Matthews Jr. isn’t Lawrence Taylor and switching to the 3-4 defense isn’t a magic elixir so why has everyone pretending it is when they know better? Go Brett Favre! Bury the Cheeseheads than get old next week! Favre, Favre, Favre, FAVRE!

Also, picking the Dallas vs Denver game is like determining which team will be revealed as a fraud 1st. I think Denver actually has some substance to that team so I am picking them to win. Who knows, after they burst the Tony Romo bubble they may go onto to burst the Philip Rivers bubble like they should have last year. Ya, Rivers is so great. He throws against the pathetic AFC West each season and the more Chargers lean on him the worst their record has been . . . pour over that stat.
