2013 NFL Season Wins CONTEST...NEW

I like the Cardinals over 5.5. Decent Defense. New Coach. New QB with something to prove.

2012 Thread

https://www.lasvegasadvisor.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=17&threadid=315806

Note in last year's thread AlanLeroy predicted the Saints would not win 8 games. He was correct.


PLEASE NOTE: ON 7/20/13, THIS THREAD TURNED INTO A CONTEST THAT ANYONE CAN ENTER SEE RULES BELOW

I also offer Number51 and Roulette Man an opportunity to solve this spat once and for all.

AlanleroyII's Pick your 5 or Pick Your Nose Challenge Rules

Everyone will post their best 5 picks based on the current line in the first post in this thread.

All picks must be posted before 9/4/13 11:59 PM. They can be changed any time until then. On 09/05/13 all picks are frozen and can no longer be changed.

At the end of the regular season, the player who has the most picks right wins a prize to be determined later.

Ties will be broken based on a special Playoff Wins Playoff.

Side Battle Between RM & #51

Should #51 get more right than RM, RM will never make another negative post about #51 again....nor will he ever mention Lou Piniella's Mother again. And he can select a new RM Signature line that RM must use for 30 days.

Should RM get more right than #51, #51will never make another negative post about RM again....nor will he ever mention Lou Piniella's Mother again. And he can select a new #51 Signature line that #51must use for 30 days.


Should RM or #51 not post their picks before 9/4/13 11:59 PM, they will be given a suitable LVA nickname to be determined later.

That was an interesting look back to last year. Some darn good prognosticating and some not so good.

I'm still processing the 2013 win-loss lines.

I don't know how the Ravens don't come tumbling down?

The Super Bowl loser generally doesn't fare well the next season, but the 49ers look too strong.

There are always two or three teams that were in the playoffs last year, that do horrible this year and there are always two or three teams that were very subpar in the prior year who make the playoffs this year. The question is who will they be. My Raiders have stunk the joint up for over a decade now. They have so many salary cap issues, I don't even know if they can make that 5.5 win figure.

The Bengals are a big question mark.

The Steelers are getting old.

The NFC East is going to be quite a race.

Please try to give some good info to Blackjack. I'm sick and tired of Roscoe winning each year.

Steelers have thinned some of the old guard, it all depends on the young blood namely the O-line. There's several top picks there and they've all been hurt. We'll see if the D can rank in the top again.

Chiefs will go over 7. They have a lot of talent. Worst coached team last year. Andy Reid and Alex Smith will turn them around.

Here's a good read on the topic-

https://www.grantland.com/story/_/id/9441252/bill-barnwell-breaks-2012-numbers-get-feel-2013

I watched the NFL Live on ESPN and they figured the Pats for 4 losses....12-4. The Giants at 9 is probably right on. Tough division.

I'm surprised the under 11 1-2 on the 49ers is at -175. I'll take the over. I can see them winning 12 or 13 games.

By the way, I don't think the Patriots will win more than 11.5 games. I however would not lay 180 on the under. I think the Patriots have jumped the shark and are on their way down. They have major receiver problems, they have offensive line problems, and I don't think Brady is as good as he was several years ago. I predict they win 10 games.
