Thanks, considering where I was midway just before the season, really turned it on.
That said, this last week is the hardest to pick, nevermind the pressure of trying to pick up that extra game on the current pool leader (and of course, not slipping up and dropping 5 games over 3rd place). How do games where either one or both teams have nothing to play for? How do you pick games where a team may be able to move up or down spots in the playoffs, depending on how they do and how other games go?
I assume Minnesota's an underdog to Detroit simply because they've played just on Tuesday?
But then why is Philly that big a favourite over Dallas after also just playing yesterday, and Vick possibly not playing?
The enigma that is the Jets and Giants.
KC can move up, but not likely.
Then the throw away games like ARI and SF, SD/DEN.
Really tough picks.
