I hope everyone enjoyed the Dasain. This was my first Dasain without my family. Terrible that was.

Anyways, Week 7 had mixed elements. All the games resulted as they were supposed to except for the loner pick by Sniper, Detroit beat the Buccaneers, With 2 minutes left, the Bucs should have capitalised the onsite kick recovery. but, this is the NFL. The Lions are the Bears beater, so Bucs are not an exception. They play the Bears again this week. Yupe, bears coming back to win after that crazy 97-yard drive in under 2 minutes by that crazy Brian Griese (once considered to replace Elway's legacy for Broncos), I think Bears are back in the game. After next week, the Bears should be second place in the NFC North and will continue to win more games to make it to the playoffs. I will not not pick Bears ever again except for that games against Broncos and the Packers.

Hankora was the only one to pick the Cardinals win over Skins and he could have been right had that 54-yarder went through the uprights, in the final moments.

utousucks was right when he had the loner pick for Bills over the Ravens - why would you want to pick Bills over Ravens? Amazing! The game wasn't about Ravens' defense. It was all about the Bills stopping that 3-1 and 4-1 at about 1 minute and half left to play.

And hatterika and myself got that Indy-Jags game wrong. I knew that the Indy's were a better team, but I had to go with the home team. But hey, the QB was out in the first Quarter. But hatterika, we got that Broncos game right, hoina. cheers!

And finally, I think the Rams are the worst team in the league. At least the Fins put up that 28 points against the Pats. And how about the Texans putting that 29 points in the 4th, to nearly beat the Titans. That would have been interesting.

Anyways, utousucks still leads the table, but himalayan dude have beaten utousucks in 2 consecutive weeks to close the gap by 3. Watch out utousucks. And what happened lurey. You missed (forgot) your picks for the last week. Also, 2nd, 3rd and 4th place in the current standing haven't won a week - quite interesting eh!

CamoFlaged wins the week again for 2 consecutive weeks scoring 12-2 this week - good job mate. The last time we had that was in week 3 and 4. We still do not have an undefeated week by anyone yet. Camo you could be the first 3-consecutive winner and also join utousucks for 3-weeks winners club.

As you can see in the new tables i have highlighed some of the achievements. The weekly winners are in bold. 10 or more wins are in green.

Sniper, i have a question. are you the eSniper from the Sajha Discussion. If you are then, i believe we need to input your picks for week 1, 2 and 3. what do you say.

Week 8.

There are only two division games this week. Steelers @ Bengals, and the result almost certain to the Steelers, and Lions v Bears.

Marquee game 1. Lions (4-2) @ Bears (3-4). I do not remember when was the last the time the Lions visited the Bears with a better record. Lions are always placed 3rd or 4th in that division with Packers and Vikings being the other. Should the Lions win and the Packers loose to Denver, believe of not, Lions are tied for lead in the NFC north. But, I am gonna have to go with the new Bears. The win over the Phillies with that last moment 97-yard drive, reminds me of Broncos' Elway's "The Drive" of the '87 AFC Championship game against the Browns. Bears over Lions by 3.

Marquee Game 2. Jaguars (4-2) @ Bucs (4-3). This is the clash of the defenses. However, Jaguars are weaker in the offense, so the pendulum is definately on Bucs and they are also playing at home. Both teams lost their last game, so this game is sort of for recovery. Jags are out of QB's. Bucs by 3.

Marquee Game 3. Packers (5-1) @ Denver (3-3). Yes, Packers and Broncos return to the Monday Night. These two are the highest revenue grossing teams in the NFL, and when they clash on Prime Time, it's gonna be a big bang in both ends of the television sets. I remember, watching them during the Superbowl in 1998. I woke up at 4 in the morning (yes in Nepal), recorded the whole 3.5 hrs on tape. At 10, I invited the students from University of Colorado and Univeristy of Wisconsin, to watch the games. They did not yet know the result, and it was something amazing to see something like that in Nepal. I became a hero, rey kya aach! We do not have Elway in the Broncos jersey, but we definately have a better Favre with a Better Team. But this is Bronco country. They hardly loose games at the Mile High. And with that crazy offensive performance last week, they have revived. But, the Packers are rested and also lead the division. A very dangerous team, they have become. Yeah, last week a fan yapped and gave Denver the game over a much better Steelers. This week, I am gonna have pick Denver again by 3.

Fantasy game. Rams (0-7) v Fins (0-7). I think i am obsessed with these two teams. Rams play the Browns and Fins play the Giants. This week again, Rams have a better chance of winning. Just win a game, and let me cool down with this idotic fantasy i have. Fantasy Game Coming up next week -> Rams (0-8) v Fins (0-8). Fantasy Game Coming up in the 17th week -> Rams (0-15) v Fins (0-15). After week 17, what the hell am i doing here? ok ok, continue with the picks.
