NFL 2023 weekly prediction contest week 5

[Poppa San]

ALL are welcome to play along!!

Guess the score of each team of each game...
Each game you pick the correct winner of: 5 points
If you pick correctly on at least half the games scheduled for the week earns a 20 points bonus
If you pick correctly on at least 75% of the games earns a 40 point bonus (plus the previous 20 points)
If you get all but one of the games correct nets 100 bonus points (plus the 20 & 40 from above)
Guess right on all the games and enjoy a free 150 points (plus the previous 24, 40 & 100)
And ..... If you guess both the correct winner and score of any game: 125 bonus points tacked on for each correct game.
If you've got incredibly mad skills and happen to guess every correct score of every game: you get a mega jackpot of 5000 points.
Post your weekly results in the score thread.

I am OK with posting just the Thursday game and then replying to (not editing) it later in the week with the rest of the picks.

14 games this week so only need 7 to get 1/2 right.

So effin close.

 

[tynimiller]

I’m terrible…forgot again lol

 

[Voyageur]

So effin close.

This is at least twice where you must have wished we were playing hand grenades? Just getting fairly close works with them.

This is at least twice where you must have wished we were playing hand grenades? Just getting fairly close works with them.

Every week I get at least one game with one team's score correct while the other team is off by a field go or so.

 

[milani]

Every week I get at least one game with one team's score correct while the other team is off by a field go or so.

Likewise. I think predicting the 27-24 for all games has got to hit several times for someone eventually.

Well, thanks to the Raiders and the Packers late gaffes I eked out a 7-7 record. I had Raiders by 4

WTD 55 PTS.
YTD 540 PTS.

 

[Canadian Cheddar]

I think you will hit some exact scores this week.

No luck yet. 7-7, yuck!

 

[Voyageur]

8 right. That would be 50%+1? So, 55 points.

 

[Canadian Cheddar]

No. 7-7 per attached. 50 points.

 

[milani]

8 right. That would be 50%+1? So, 55 points.

Actually, it is 40 plus 20 = 60! TD!

WTD 55 PTS.
YTD 540 PTS.

Just realized that in WK 4 I had 12/16 which earned a bonus of 40 Pts. In addition to the 20.

YTD. = 580.

I count 11-3. 55 + 20 + 40

 

[Canadian Cheddar]

WTD 55 PTS.
YTD 540 PTS.

Reconciling the scores I figured 8-6 = 60 points. Plus I believe you had 120 points in week 4, not 80. This is going to put you too far ahead in the points making the above 585 points.

 

[Canadian Cheddar]

I count 11-3. 55 + 20 + 40

Auditing for a scoring update. 10-4 = 70 points. Correct me if I got it wrong. CC.
