yes, if we are saying that when we get both right we don't count it and it off sets then it's 1-1, because not counting the ties, we had the same thing other than I had ravens win and you had chargers win in those games?

In our league the format shows total points by member rather than net. Would that approach be okay?

unless we just tally it all and don't count ties. so if we both win we count it for both? it's up to you.

Yes. That way the cumulative point totals can also be shown as a percentage of the total games played.

You are the commish so yes, that's fine with me.

for today's games 8/8
we both have the falcons, rams, and raiders.
The other 3 games are up for grabs. which are
Eagles vs Bears
Bucs vs Jags
Bills vs Panthers
the preseason does stink. A couple games Vegas did pretty accurate but the others not so much. It's tough preseason, trends aren't set. nobody knows, you are almost better off taking teams that are crappier. Brady probably won't play much for Pats, so if they are playing a team that just drafted a hyped top qb then you may tend toward the inexperienced trying to grow team. And I can't believe we are the only participants here, but yet it is still preseason.

Did you notice the dominance of Home teams so far? Also few sustain a correct pick percentage at or above 55%.

For sure. It's hard to win on the road in the NFL. It's hard to win on the road in any major sport, but the NFL is toughest, and a 16 game schedule, every game counts. The weird thing is try to pick just 3 winners against the spread during the regular season, it's very tough, or preseason for that matter. there were 2 games where ties lose in the first 7 games. That's crazy. During the season too, I follow college too, and it's pretty accurate for the most part. Yes, thanks for having some fun picking nfl games. it's appreciated.🙂 makes it more interesting.

During the 2013 NFL Regular Season there were 256 Games and 11 Games during Post Season: Total 267...

Here's the profile distribution of those 267 Game Points with Morning Lines:

Dogs: 138 Points [51.7%]
Favs: 129 Points.

Home: 141 Points [52.8%]
Away: 126.

Note: We always eliminate even lines by adding .5 which we can do here beginning with week two. Okay?

When we eliminate even lines beginning in week 2, how is it determined who gets .5? is it the away team?

Home or Away isn't a factor. Whatever the line is add .5 converting 2 to 2.5 and even to .5 whether the sign is + or -
