For the past few years I have been in a football pool where I have to predict the winner of each game. The person who has the most wins every week wins some money. At the end of the season the top three people who have accumulated the most wins also win some money. Usually you need a winning percentage around 59% percent to win, but it does vary year to year. Last season my winning percentage was at 53% I think. This season I will post my predictions on the blog so everyone can see how I do. I am not in this pool with anyone who writes for GOI so I would welcome feedback before I officially submit my picks!
Here are my predications for week one:
Tennessee at Pittsburgh
Miami at Atlanta
Philadelphia at Carolina
Denver at Cincinnati
Minnesota at Cleveland
NY Jets at Houston
Jacksonville at Indianapolis
Detroit at New Orleans
Dallas at Tampa Bay
Kansas City at Baltimore
San Francisco at Arizona
Washington at NY Giants
St. Louis at Seattle
Chicago at Green Bay
Buffalo at New England
San Diego at Oakland
-The team I predict to win is in bold.

How could you take San Fran over Arizona and Detroit over New Orleans?
Despite me hating predictions, I have to defend my honor as TBO and compete against both of you. Lets make picks here every week and tally up who got the most right at the end of the season

Upsets are for losers although i like tennessee over pitt
I like the challenge. It is pretty much like the other legue I am in, except this is just for fun!
Someone should make a grid to track it for each week to see who has the most right at the end of the season.
1) I picked Detriot for this but Now Orleans for my suicide pick. I don't know why I picked Detriot but I'm going to keep picking them until they win one game, I mean their bound to win right?
2) I also think San Fran is going to win the division and they would have won it last year if it weren't for Mike Martz's end of the game f4th down goal line stand debacle. Watch, no matter what, Arizona finished 3rd in that division
3) Predictions are pointless
well i already have a leg up on both you since i correctly picked Pittsburgh over Tennessee! boo yeah!
