Who you got? Week 16

[Doomsday]

Going Cowboys purely on the hopes that Seattle is reeling from what Gurley did to them last week and Zeke can take advantage. Slim hope, I know, but at this point I"ll take what I can get.

But.... WE have the genius coach of the year who knows Seattle will be bunching up to stop Zeke because of his guarantee and also because of what Gurley did to them, so it's gonna be throw throw throw against the missing Legion.

The Seattle coaching advantage makes this game a wash since Seattle is so banged up... But I'm hopingSeattle will put to bed all the Dallas playoff scenario nonsense.

EDIT - With Tyron Smith announced as starting, my pick is now DALLAS.

I think Gurley going off is actually a negative for us this game. I think they'll be massively motivated not to let that happen again.

If I'm playing a pretty good team, I'd rather they weren't coming off an embarrassing loss.

Seattle is still alive, and I'm not gonna overreact to the Rams game or Zeke's return, so Seahawks.

Hey Blu, how do you not have 14 picks when you are the one that runs this thread each week?

 

[Bluenoser]

I missed the 49ers game and maybe the Chargers game.

Taking Cowboys

 

[English Cowboy]

COWBOYS

You just know this is all leading to Garrett's patented week 17 win-and-you're-in bellyflop.

 

[bbgun]

Okay, now they're saying Tyron is playing. Dak might not be running for his life now. Gonna switch my pick to DALLAS.

Damn, I was hoping this was going to be my chance to jump back in a three way tie for first

Forget it. That set of steak knives will be mine

Cowboys

@Seandude Never forget gutsy Jason Garrett had to be talked into going for 4th down against the Eagles in overtime last year. Haven't heard any talk, but it looked like the same discussion in Oakland last week.

 

[Scot]

wait a sec, I never got my set from winning last year!

Same here, I've edited my pick post accordingly.

Yeah it takes real balls to let people with actual balls talk you into doing something the least little bit risky.

The one guy I thought would make all the difference goes out after one series. Always trust your first instinct, folks.

I thought Zeke would run Seattle into the ground.
Ginger Jesus thought different.

As I predicted.

Elliott was a little off but did get 97 yrds. The play calling was dreadful.

The Dez fumble changed everything. Seattle scored a cheap six and then it was pass, pass pass.

Yep panic set in when our position in this game never warranted it.
