NFL Picks 2015: Week 10

by | Nov 11, 2015 | 2015 season, NFL Picks

Well … that was ugly.weekly-picks

Only one of our pickers hit eight games in week nine. Rich, who won our survivor pool, stayed hot in an unpredictable week.

The rest of us ranged from four (Andy) to seven correct. Just one of those weeks, I guess.

Here are the standings:

Week 9 Season
Rich 8-5 87-45
Tony 7-6 88-44
Maggio 6-7 84-48
Vomhof 6-7 75-57
Andy 4-9 83-49

NFL Picks 2015: Week 8

by | Oct 27, 2015 | 2015 season, NFL Picks

 

 

We’re seven weeks in and we might as well admit – none of us know what the hell is going to happen next.

Devonta Freeman leads the league in rushing, followed by the scrap heap duo of Chris Johnson and Doug Martin. Meanwhile Aaron Rodgers is throwing two picks and ranking somewhere in the middle of the pack in passing yards.

And our writers continue to be all over the dart board when it comes to picking games. This week it was Tony’s turn to post an 11-3 mark, while Andy dropped to the bottom at 8-6. Everyone else was in the middle.

And with a quick glance at this week’s docket, it appears as though the results likely will be much the same.

Here are the standings:

  Week 7 Overall
Tony 11-3 70-35
Maggio 10-4 69-36
Rich 9-5 68-37
Vomhof 9-5 60-45
Andy 8-6 69-36

And here we go again. Our picks for week 8: (more…)

Zoneblitz Survivor Pool 2015: Week 7

by | Oct 21, 2015 | 2015 season, NFL Survivor pool

A lot of larger survivor pools didn’t last as long as ours did this season. Some early season upsets have wreaked havoc on such contests. And the run of unpredictability finally ended ours. Congratulations to Rich, who stood tall amid the chaos. His picks have barely been threatened so far this season. He wins bragging rights. So if there is one of us to listen to, it’s him.

The rest of us continue through the second-chance pool. We’ll continue bringing you our choices throughout the season – even though they don’t really matter much.

NFL Picks 2015: Week 7

by | Oct 20, 2015 | 2015 season, NFL Picks

Week six provided a wide variety of results among our pickers. A couple guys hit 10. One hit six. We usually don’t weekly-picksvary quite that widely.

That said, the results allowed the overall standings to tighten up some, as Fantasy Editor Maggio took the biggest hit.

Here are the standings:

  Week 6 Total
Rich 10-4 59-32
Vomhof 10-4 51-40
Tony 9-5 59-32
Andy 8-6 61-30
Maggio 6-8 59-32

Where are the must-see match-ups? Week 7 is yet another mediocre slate of games with little more than fantasy results driving the casual fan to the television. Here are our picks: (more…)
