Welcome to Gaia! ::

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.

2 weeks left of the regular season, 2 more chances to go 5-0 heading into the playoffs.

N.Y. Jets at Chicago- The Jets road win over Pittsburgh may have saved their season, but it was a lucky win over a Troy Polamalu-less Steelers squad, but it was a motivational boost for a team which has stunk two weeks in a row. The Bears have won the NFC North, they could coast to the playoffs, but a first round by sounds really nice.
WINNER- CHICAGO BEARS

San Francisco at St. Louis- Mike Singletary is keeping mum as to who his starting QB will be for this game. Will he go with the more experienced Alex Smith who tore up the Seahawks? or Troy Smith who threw over 300 yards against the Rams earlier this season? Regardless, surprisingly at 5-9 the 49ers are the favorites to win the NFC West, they win out, and Seattle goes 1-1, they win the division.
WINNER- SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS

Houston at Denver- The intern head coach isn't working out for Denver so far, but will throwing Tim Tebow in as starting QB be the turn around move the Broncos really need? Houston will sputter to yet another mediocre finish, and even if they win out, they may still finish 4th in the AFC South.
WINNER- HOUSTON TEXANS

Minnesota at Philadelphia- Could this season have been any worse for a Minnesota team that was eyeballing a possible run to the Superbowl? After a disasterous two weeks where they had to have their emergency home games in Detroit and at a frozen University of Minnesota field, they will go on the road to finish their season. The Eagles impressive win has them in the driver seat in the East, they win this game, they win the division.
WINNER- PHILADELPHIA EAGLES

New Orleans at Atlanta- The Saints were on an impressive run, and I'm not taking anything away from them or the Baltimore Ravens, but with the way the Ravens have underplayed in recent games the Saints should have walked away with that one. The Falcons are top dogs in the NFC, a win at home will wrap up their division and give them a first round bye. Matt Ryan has only lost 1 game at home his entire career. Home field for the Falcons will be huge for this team going into the playoffs.
WINNER- ATLANTA FALCONS
