A few ground rules:
-Please say which level you are on when you post your pick. In most cases it will be obvious, but this makes it easier for me to record the picks. -The deadline to make a pick is before kick-off of the game in question. You cannot pick a game that has already started. Some levels may have different deadlines, so read carefully. -The deadline to answer the bonus question is at the start of games on Sunday (1 PM ET). -Please don't edit your picks. If you'd like to change, please do so in a clearly labeled new post. -I get my spreads from an online site providing lines from several sources, both in Vegas and out. Although these sources may continue to change their lines throughout the week, the ones I post in the topic are frozen and final for our purposes. -You may use bonus points to skip any level after it is guaranteed you cannot pass it (at the end of the week's games, typically). You may only skip the level before I have posted the next week's topic. The price for skipping is in proportion to the level you are skipping. Skipping level 1 would take 1 bonus point, level 2 will take 2, level 5 will take 5. So on and so forth. Explanation of Levels: Level 1: Pick a winner. Simply pick one team to win their game. If they win, you go on to level 2. Level 2: Pick an Underdog to win. You must pick a team that is an underdog to win their game. Underdogs will always be the team listed second. Level 3: 2 Games with Spread. Using the spreads I provide, pick 2 games. You must get both correct to move on. Spreads work by giving (-) or getting (+) points. The team that is the favorite to win "gives" points to the underdog. If you choose the favorite to win, they must still win after "giving" those points to the underdog. If you choose the underdog, you would be correct if they win the game after "getting" those points. For example, if a game says "Giants (-2.5) vs. Cowboys," if you pick the Giants, they must actually win the game by at least three points; if you pick the Cowboys, you would win if they actually won the game or lost by two points or less. Schedule: (Favorites listed first; home team in CAPS) Thursday, September 16th Carolina (-7.5) vs HOUSTON Sunday, September 19th 1 PM ET TENNESSEE (-5.5) @ Indianapolis NEW YORK GIANTS (-2.5) vs Atlanta KANSAS CITY (-6.5) vs Los Angeles Chargers PITTSBURGH (-4.5) vs Cincinnati CLEVELAND (-7.5) vs Chicago Baltimore (-8.5) @ DETROIT NEW ENGLAND (-2.5) vs New Orleans Arizona (-7.5) @ JACKSONVILLE BUFFALO (-8.5) vs Washington 4 PM DENVER (-10.5) vs New York Jets LAS VEGAS (-3.5) vs Miami Seattle (-1.5) @ MINNESOTA LOS ANGELES RAMS (-0.5) vs Tampa Bay 8:20 PM SAN FRANCISCO (-3.5) vs Green Bay Monday, September 20th DALLAS (-3.5) vs Philadelphia Bonus Question: How many teams will win by ten or more points this week?
