OK, really going out on a limb here picking 3 different teams than the leader. So I could jump into the lead or totally fall out of the competition this week.
Houston (better line up top to bottom and clinched week 14 so had nothing to play for the last 3 games they lost)
Detroit (It will be a shootout but I think it will stay within 10. But this is a game that could get out of had early if there are turnovers from Detroit. Could go either way)
Giants
Denver (if it is Tebow's last game of the year, then I will go down swinging with him, but I think he has some magic left in him to at least keep it within the spread if not win it, especially on a cold day in a low scoring game)
Cincinnati +2.5 @ Houston
Detroit +11.5 @ New Orleans
Atlanta +3 @ NY Giants
Pittsburgh -8.5 @ Denver
Houston

Too bad future generations aren't here to see all the great things we are spending their $$ on!!
Here goes (deep breath, it's all riding on the line):
Houston (it pains me, but we've got a history of not showing up when it's do or die)
New Orleans
Atlanta
Pittsburgh
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
Looks like Joe, Hoot Owl and I are all on the same page and Renegade and TPP are too as almost total opposites other than the Giants. And Science Chic picked pretty different from both groups. There will be movement this week in the standings!
4 of us got the first one right. Houston defense destroyed AJ Green 47 yards, Cedric Benson 14 yards, and Dalton. I really like Dalton and would have liked to see him have a great game. But the other rookie outplayed him!
Now I need to worry about the Lions hanging with N.O in the shootout.
