Things are a bit hectic around the JP household this time of year, so I’m a bit rushed and a bit late getting in this article submitted. Generally the lady gives me advanced notice if I need to build something, but this week I got rush orders for some picture frames and two kids play tables. Now, would that really have changed much? Probably not. Even with advance notice, I still would have logged like 35 hours on Dragon Age: Inquistion this week. It would have been nice of her though.
Anyway, I didn’t do so hot last week on the predictions. I was 1/16 and, with the Niners officially eliminated from playoff contention and all the Harbaugh hoopla, I have decided that I really don’t care. Thanks a lot Obama.
What I got right:
SF @ SEA – Wilson has more turnovers than Kaep
If I could only get one right, I’ll take Kaepernick at least protecting the ball in SEA. There really is a first time for everything. I nearly had Rodgers with the three turnovers, but GB recovered his fumble. Damn them!
What you got right:
BMT – Kaepernick will not throw a pick in SEA
Noshoes – Julio Jones has under 50 receiving yards
Noshoes – Buffalo wins
Burial Ground – GB loses to Buffalo
Not a bad showing. Of the roughly 25 or so predictions you guys submitted, four were correct. BMT and I went the same route with Kaepernick and turnovers, but Noshoes wins the day with two correct predictions and he was close on a third.
Saintschicka gets the “Nice Try” award for the week for a late Monday night submission of “Johnny Manziel Plays Like Absolute Shit And Gets Shut Out”. I may rushed because of Christmas crap, and generally legally drunk when I look at the predictions, but when the Browns play an early Sunday game and I get a prediction at 10:35pm Monday night, I gotta call bullshit. Maybe it got lost in the Cloud on the way to my email.
And now for this week’s predictions.
