No picks for me.......................

[ro_dreaming]

Sorry, I was traveling for work. I would have picked the Bengals, so it doesn’t matter anyway :-)

[ro_dreaming]

Cardinals got the division next year. 49’ers fall back a bit with Trey Lawrence at QB, but it’s necessary as Jimmy G ain’t all that.

<\table> Blank cells means did not play that round, 0 means a loss. I didn't bother with the Super Bowl pct after all.

[atc23]

They’re going to trade Murray so Cards need a QB (Brady) - I’d keep Garapolo and trade the rook- Lawrence - for big money. I don’t know why people don’t like Jimmy G. Seriously. He took that team to the NFC TITLE game. Beat the eventual SB winner TWICE.

[WhoisAlanGreenspan?]

Jim if you made a pick for the Super Bowl I couldn’t find it. Sorry.

[ro_dreaming]

Why are the Cards going to trade Kyler Murray? He’s Kingsbury’s guy, ain’t it?

[WhoisAlanGreenspan?]

Yeah I don't get why the Cards would consider dealing Kyler Murray, they were knocking it down earlier this season. But the list of possible QB's on the trade block is stunning;

Aaron Rodgers
Matt Ryan
Deshaun Watson
Russell Wilson
Ryan Tannehill
Baker Mayfield
Possibly Jalen Hurts if a better Eagles QB can be acquired
Carson Wentz
Kirk Cousins? Unbelievable!
Tom Brady? I doubt it but....
Jimmy Garoppolo
Jameis Winston
Perhaps the Rodgers, Brady, Stafford trend of extended decades at the same team is over.

Thanks to WhoisAlanGreenspan? for rolling up the lions’ share of the tally. I just added the Super Bowl and calculated the results.

Thanks gain Impy for another fun season on good ‘ole FR Foosball. Looked like fewer FReeper SJW’s this year thankfully.

[Repealthe17thAmendment]

Thanks to everyone who does the hard work putting this out each week! It was a good season, even if the better games came in the playoffs before the Super Bowl. And for any Rams fans, Congratulations, they had a solid tran and put it all together at just the right time.

[Tommy Revolts]

Looks good. Thanks for the recognition. See you all next season (if it still exists, last of the Mohicans). Go Chiefs!

[chuck allen]

NEW YORK — An estimated 101.1 million people watched the Los Angeles Rams win the Super Bowl over the Cincinnati Bengals on NBC and Telemundo, up from 2021 and capping a stirring playoff schedule for the NFL.

Last year’s game had a television audience of 92 million, the lowest since 2006.

The Nielsen company said another 11.2 million people streamed the game, putting the total audience at 112.3 million people.
