2 participants went pointless for the entire season last season and 1 of the 2 participants still hasn't got off the mark this year!  Intolerable cruelty 

And we had a 4 or 5 week stretch last season (around the same time frame as right now) where no one received a point

It's a tough comp that gets tougher

Still, everyone is within striking distance of leading the comp so there's that

As for the Falcons, your division is down to 3 who can win it.  Handy win against the Bucs on the weekend

Well there you go... That's the beauty of this tipping comp! 

Falcons ticking along okay, I'm still not sold on the rookie QB Ridder (had 3 red zone turn overs last week) with the NFC South probably the weakest division in the league it gives us an opportunity anyway. With a young family I haven't had a chance to watch them or the league as closely over the past couple of seasons, that'll be my excuse if I go pointless for the season haha! Although working from home on Mondays & Fridays does play well in the NFL season so try to see as much as I can!

Rams cut their kicker. Not surprised, what’s annoying is we didn’t re sign Gay who was great over the last three seasons and would have cost sod all.

Watching Leonard Floyd smashing it also hurts since we are paying his wage, another dumb off season move.

Can at least bin them from 40 yards? I'd look at anyone who can do that right now.

But then again, kickers are only ever sacked for repeatedly missing from this range or less haha. 

Floyd is just a stud pure and simple. Fits McDermott's scheme perfectly.

Boring choices - Chiefs, Ravens, Eagles. Thought about Jags.

Missed two from over 50. The PAT you shouldn’t miss tho. 
But McVay called poorly at times and Stafford zoned on one read a lot through the game so if they played better his FG attempts might be closer and then miss less.

NFL Preview Week 8

[Gorgoroth 13,019]

Highly doubt tomorrow will be a good day for me, Can’t see the Rams beating Dallas in Dallas. Our D isn’t great and I don’t think can hold Lamb or get to Dak enough whilst in the other side I think the Dallas D will make the olines life a living hell. 
The run game will be key, if we can t that going and slow the pass rush a second would be gold.

i'm in the same boat TU. chiefs huffing and puffing v the Broncos. need a touchdown to win in the 4th. They are no certs

[Dee Zephyr 19,268]

Lol Chiefs…will they get out of this one ?

[JV7 2,354]

Broncos..  Seriously c'mon man!

[Gorgoroth 13,019]

Well today started well in the first qtr, except their by the wording penalty and then the same not paid to us, theirs lead to a TD, ours a FG and that’s where the game stopped being good. Stafford smashed his thumb twice and looks likely to miss this week vs GB. Nakua has been an absolute revelation, it’s seriously like have two Kupps out there. This kid is special.

[Gorgoroth 13,019]

Washington trade Young to the niners. Essentially they move back a year with a third rounder if they don’t sign him long term.

Ha! We're all getting caught out on trap games ... but trap games aren't easily identified! 

The good news is that this week is there aren't any trap games but if anyone can come up with 3 road winners, they'll probably pick up a well deserved bonus point
