That was one of the two I had on my list. The other is Dallas over Cleveland. So that is my pick for next week. Once again, good luck CND.

Nice job guys!

Putting on my math hat, let's assume each game is a coin flip, that is, a 50-50 chance that either team will win. I know this isn't entirely true but it makes the math easy.

So the odds of picking 10 in a row is 1 in 1,000! And to have two guys do it outstanding.

Your math skills are beyond my abilities, but to still be in this contest after 10 weeks is surprising to say the least.

I might be jinxing myself, but I've been in a handful of these single elimination pools and have never gone beyond the 5th week. I too am shocked I'm still alive in this.

Maybe they will both still be alive in the contest when the regular season ends....but I have a regular season tie breaker just case you both make it to 17-0. Then the playoff contest starts.....

I doubt we'll make to 17-0, but, then again, I would have doubted making it to 10-0.

You're right, but there are still some good teams we haven't tapped yet and some teams who seem to be coming unto their own as the season progresses. Still, I cannot imagine either of us, let alone both of us, making it to 17-0. I'm no math guy, but I wonder what the odds are of that happening?

I caught myself looking ahead. I realized I haven't used Green Bay yet, but they don't have an easy game all the way until the end of the season. That's a good team I might have to leave on the table, if I can get that far.
