No worries guys. I would have picked GB myself, but it's probably the last time I see my Giants this season, so I'll pick them one last time.  I absolutely don't see us beating GB.. Before the season started, Eli surprised a lot of people by predicting this year, the Giants would make it past regular season, something he never did before & such an un-Eli thing to do.  And here they are. He must be a little clairvoyant.  

Congratulations on winning your fantasy Cyn!  That's fantastic!  This had to be my worst fantasy year ever. ALmost all my picks were busts. I wasted my first round pick on Gurley & it was all downhill from there.  What's funny is after the draft, the yahoo fantasy site grades your picks and I was the only player to get an "A."   I ended up dead last. lol.

Saturday, Jan 7

  • Oakland @ Houston - Houston
  • Detroit @ Seattle - Seattle (but wouldn't surprise me to see Detroit win)

Sunday, Jan 8

  • Miami @ Pittsburgh - Pitts
  • NY Giants @ Green Bay - Giants

Oh well, I knew this game was over when Rodgers threw that hail mary right before half time. That's exactly what Giants did to them the year we beat them and went on to win the SB. What goes around, comes around. lol.

I thought the Giants would sack Rodgers more than they did. heard on the radio this morning Dallas is a 4 point favorite over Green Bay. Dallas needs to play ball control. Keep Green Bay offense off the field.

I wonder what is being said in New York about the trip to Miami Beach.

I'm so sorry, Bettyjean!  They just couldn't seem to pick up any traction today.  :(

The worst game this weekend was the Miami@Pittsburgh.  That was just plain painful to watch. 

We play Houston on Saturday.
