2010 NFL Season 'Big Pond Pub'

Originally posted by Svin1

Cheers. Unfortunately I didn't get to watch more than a few games last season. In the seasons before that, Colts and Steelers seemed the most consistent to me, but I understand that Roethlisberger is now suspended so I'll go for Colts.

Cowboys and Ravens are just wild guesses based on tiny glimpses from last season.

Sweden is great, I'll probably defect to either there or Norway some day :p

Thought for the day: Please keep in mind that the USA NFL is huge business

and, by mission policy and protective rule, all about parity and equilibrium.

Hello, Sir Bob. Now I know nothing about American football, but I'm very fond of competitions, as you may remember. So it would be nice to have a list of teams with a realistic chance of winning, from which I (with considerable input from Cynthia, of course) could pick 3 at random.

Here's a columnist who rates teams and players. Really, really good. Get his newsletter and you'll be picking like a pro in no time!

If 'Big Ben' is picking up the soap, it'll be 'Westminster Abe' whose got his hand on the shower temperature dial. Watch out Seattle. You're dealing with greater forces than you realise.
Grampy is one of the few who would understand that, and I always rely on his judgement.

I agree, Seattle has been breaking my heart for years. No sense in stopping now 😉

Thank you. Quite fascinating. Seems to boil down to inept play calling in the the clinch,

lack of inspired leadership/consistent team motivation and SD's corner office culture.

Nevertheless, some teams rise above all that to win, some consistently.

Okay GB, I'm ready. What do I do, just pick who I think will win the Super Bowl? Or is it a weekly matchup where we pick winners of every game?
