Week 5 Prediction Games

And we're back for week 5. 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.
We have some pretty awful games this week in my opinion. Either some blowouts in the offing (Oakland @ Giants), or just ugly matchups (Cleveland @ Buffalo).
Also, just a reminder that as always all times listed are pacific. On to the games.
Atlanta @ 49ers - Sunday 10/11 1:05pm
NY Jets @ Miami - MNF 10/12 5:30pm
Indianapolis @ Tennessee - SNF 10/11 5:20pm
Cincinnati @ Baltimore - Sunday 10/11 10:00am
Washington @ Carolina - Sunday 10/11 10:00am
New England @ Denver - Sunday 10/11 1:15pm
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 New England @ Denver below, if you think Denver will win 24-14, here's how it HAS to look:
New England @ Denver: 14 - 24
If you think New England will win 24-14, it needs to appear as this:
New England @ Denver: 24 - 14
If you'd like you can bold the winner (New England @ Denver: 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.

washington at carolina???
somehow they are both going to lose
A hearty thank you to Rich Aurilia for all the good memories, and to the Niners for finally getting the uni's (mostly) right.
you do know Carolina has Steve Smith and D Williams. Yes the skins have a very good passing D but their run D is ranked 22nd and Williams is ranked very good lol
Not helping them this year
7 points in their last game. Having said that, I think they’re in for a three game win streak (looking at their sched) but will still finish with about 6 wins total. That’s still a top 10 pick for us.
You gotta bring ass to get ass.

dude, those are eerily similar to my picks right above yours.
which is actually a great strategy, stealing my picks and all. you’ll definitely score points this week.
I take full responsibility for my irresponsibility.
oh you got

But I wouldn’t want to be you for those niners and colts games if you picked the same as me.

Oh geez... I feel terrible about these games. If Tennessee wins, I'm going to be PISSED, because I flopped on that upset like a big, wet kitty cat. Jets/Miami? When in doubt, go home team...

I won’t be in first another week, will I?
Context, people. More context is good. Less context is bad. If you're willing to be reductive, then you're willing to be wrong.
Well… I might get some points for Indy, and I can hope Miami gives me ten more, but I’m not feeling good about the rest of those….

Man, I’m predicting some serious thumpings this weekend. I don’t think that’s a good thing for final scoring.
Bah.
Off by one field goal with the IND@TEN game. And because of PHUT, I can’t even score first in that game!
Bad week other than that one game, so far. Hopefully the Jets can help me out here.
Go ’Phins!

but I won’t. Got Cincy surprising the Ravens and the Dolphins to keep the New York media off the Sanchez bandwagon for another week. Miami, you guys can’t let me down. Again.
My pessimism goes to the point of suspecting the sincerity of the pessimists.
--- URGENT NOTICE ---
you bolded cincinnati and then gave baltimore more points.
I take full responsibility for my irresponsibility.
Thanks for that.
Cincy is definitely (for some reason) my intended pick.

Making predictions
is everyone keeping track of their predictions and reporting their accuracy? Or anything else behind these posts? I haven’t seen any kind of standings from the previous posts to see who is our prediction guru ;>
Its in another thread. After I put up my picks I'll link that thread.
For the standings.

Keep your eye on the Fanpost section. I usually post results Monday or Tuesday night, but on rare occasions it comes down to Wednesday.

Sort of late but before the games.
Fooch can you post a link to the results in the opening of the predictions?
I know I saw the results once before ever predicting but can’t find it again.
I know I’m not that good but still would like to see

Indianapolis @ Tennessee – 24-32
Cincinnati @ Baltimore – 23-24
Washington @ Carolina – 24-10
New England @ Denver – 23-21
will do
For now, here are last week’s results. I think the problem this week was that the same day howtheyscored posted the results, Crabtree signed and the FanPost section had a bunch of FanPosts added close to each other.
