Welcome to Gaia! ::

Turnovers make me a sad fox... crying I'm being retarded now with that poll... XD

Welcome to the Annual NFL Guild Pick of the Week 2010. We will be selecting the winners from 5 NFL games. After you have selected the winning team your choice is final. You must post the teams you are selecting here. Do not PM me your choices. If you don't post here who you are selecting I won't know. Once you have posted you choices here I will add your name to the list of people participating in the event. Remember that this guild event is free. We will keep a record of your wins and the person with the most wins or perhaps win percentage not only gets the bragging rights, but 5000 gold. Or maybe more if I can actually access the guild account...

The NFL Guild Pick of the Week will be closed 30 minutes before kickoff of the first game.

Rough Monday Night game for the San Francisco 49ers. The Saints won the game but they did not beat the 49ers, the 49ers beat themselves. Besides those 4 turnovers the 49ers completely outplayed the defending Superbowl champions, and even committing 4 turnovers to the Saints 0, it took a last second field goal to win. If the other team spots you 4 turnovers, and you win on the last play with a field goal, either the team that committed the turnovers is better than we think, or the team that still struggled to win isn't as good as we once thought. Bottom line.

Anyways, the picks.

Dallas at Houston- A huge statement game against the defending AFC champion Colts, and an impressive come from behind victory against an improved Washington team, the Texans just might be one of the AFC elites this season. The Cowboys? Picked by many to win the division, but floundered to an 0-2 record. If Houston wins this weekend, I bet you'll start to hear lots of talk of the Texans in the Superbowl at Dallas Instead of the Cowboys.
WINNER- HOUSTON TEXANS

Atlanta at New Orleans- In my beginning rant, I talked about the Saints struggles. Barely beating two 0-2 teams, and were clearly outplayed by the 49ers Monday night. Atlanta struggled and lost a good physical game in week one, but bounced back with a crushing win over the Cardinals. I know the Falcons are going into this game underdogs, but I have a gut feeling they will hand the defending champions their first loss, and take control of the division.
WINNER- ATLANTA FALCONS

Oakland at Arizona- Both teams are 1-1, both getting their lone wins by barely getting by the lowely Rams, this is a stink fest in the making. But while Arizona is struggling overall, they still have some elements to their NFC championship team on board, the Raiders? Just a big mess. I don't think there is enough butt kissing Tom Cable can due to keep his job at the end of the season.
WINNER- ARIZONA CARDINALS

N.Y. Jets at Miami- The Jets had a HUGE game against the Patriots, has Mark Sanchez finally arrived? Or will he fall back to his inconsistant ways? He faces a much tougher Miami Defense on Sunday, and there will be no Revis at all to help them on Defense. The Dolphins offense is no Patriots offense, but I like the nice, consistant play of Chad Henne down there. A very overlooked QB. And I think the Dolphins will stun the Jets and raise more question about that teams Superbowl chances.
WINNER- MIAMI DOLPHINS

Green Bay at Chicago- I'll admit, I'm surpised the Bears are 2-0. Even without their questionable win over Detroit in week one, I didn't expect them to play this good and beat Dallas last week, even with all the problems the Cowboys are facing. Green Bay on the other hand. My hunch in the pre-season when I was starting to doubt the Vikings and think Green Bay can take the division, if not the conference is proving to be right. There's still a lot left to this NFL season, anything can happen, but Green Bay so far, has been playing like they're the team to beat, not New Orleans.
WINNER- GREEN BAY PACKERS
