OK here's the deal for the uninitiated. You pick one NFL winner every week, no spread involved, and if your team wins you move on to the next week, it loses you're done! Anyway here's what makes it hard and where strategy comes into play. You can only use any given team once in a season for your winning pick. ( you can go against the same team as often as you like though) So in other words if say the Colts are playing the Browns on a particuliar week, you can take your tap in putt and feel good about your chances that week. Problem is as the season progresses if you've used up all the good teams and all you're left with is bottom feeders, chances are you'll have no chance to win. For example if you think the Bears will probably suck this year, but this week you see them pitted against the Lions at home, this might be a good week to take the Bears.
anyway I think you all get the jist.
so make your pick before Sunday kickoff every week and good luck.
p.s, don't anyone try to be a smart ass and pick the winner of tonights game tommorow morning.
