No prizes; just bragging rights
If you’d like to get in on the fun of picking this week’s winners in the NFL without having to risk any money or win any prizes, I’ve got the contest for you.
This is actually two contests:
- Simply pick the winner (Pick’em)
- Pick against the spread (Spread)
You can participate in either, both, or neither.
- No entries will be accepted after kickoff of the Thursday Night Football game.
- If you want to change your entry, simply click the appropriate link below and fill in another entry form. I will use the last one submitted prior to TNF kickoff as the official entry.
- The spreads used for the Point Spread contest will be the ones set by me at the time of writing the article and they will not change.

Bragging rights for this week
Pick’em
There were 43 entrants in this weeks Pick’em contest, down slightly from last week’s total of 46. With 13 games on tap in Week 14, we had 6 entrants — BLOODFART, cjd44, Pike1868, David Zirn, Klammer, and Kingjayden — tie for the best score of the week in picking winners, with 11 correct predictions each. Another 8 entrants correctly predicted 10 games each.
Point Spread
We had 30 entries in the Point Spread contest (down a bit from 34 entries last week). The point spread contest had a single leader going into Monday Night Football. Had the Bengals covered the spread, Skinsnj would have had a 2-game lead on the competition, but with Dallas scoring enough spread adjusted points, Klammer managed to tie him at 10 correct predictions each. Night Train also benefited from a prediction that the Bengals would fail to cover the spread, and moved up into the 3rd spot with 9 correct predictions, ahead of another seven entrants tied with 8 correct calls each.
Congratulations to all on another great week of predictions. Don’t forget to click the links above and get your entries in for this week; it costs nothing to enter except a few minutes of your time, and the pride of winning will warm you for an entire week and give you something to brag about that will drive your friends and family crazy.
