Stacker Sports- Meta Takeover- Day 66
2060 sats \ 71 comments \ @grayruby 8 Sep 2023 meta
Quite a first game of the season last night! Congrats to our Lions fan friends here on SN. A hard fought win and the first upset of the year.
Fortunately, no one had the Chiefs in the survivor pool. Speaking of which the masses (all 8 of you) have spoken and want an additional weekly NFL contest besides the survivor pool, so Friday's posts for the rest of the NFL season will be precisely that.
1000 sats up for grabs.
Pick the 3 winners straight up and the tiebreaker question.
Game 1: Packers v.s Bears Game 2: Cowboys v.s Giants- SNF Game 3: Bills v.s Jets- MNF Tiebreaker: Total points in Bills vs Jets game
Whoever gets the most winners correct wins. Tiebreaker only relevant if we have two or more people with the same amount of correct selections. Tiebreaker is closest to the total score (over or under). Since it is a bounty, if there is still a tie after the tie breaker, first person to have locked in their picks wins.
Let the game begin.

Winner winner chicken dinner even if you did have a lapse in self confidence when Rodgers went down.
You're the new champ. Now you must defend your title in week 2.

Seriously, I've never tilted more back and forth on my wagers tonight. Good to be reminded that gambling in any meaningful way is a recipe for diaster haha. I would feel bad if this is the end to Rodgers career, the Jets have some bad luck. Also may cost the Packers a 1st round draft pick.

I am honestly shocked that Fox still have Terry Bradshaw doing the highlight calls. He stumbled over his sentences, never once getting through it without mispronouncing names and losing his place. Legend, but they start thinking who's next for his place.

Yeah. Didn't mind the first INT. Deep ball on third down. Maybe you get a big play or penalty. If it's incomplete or intercepted no big deal. Interception hurts the stats but not sure they could have punted it better than that. But he has to clean this area of his game up.

Packers still have a legitimate D. But I don't believe in Jordan Love at all. If fields has taken this step forward everyone's saying he has. Then I think the bears could be better than the pack. But that's like deciding which you'd rather have a wound on your left leg or a wound on your right leg. Neither is gunna be great.

I thought the Bears were going to be good when they had Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery. Apparently that was a decade ago so yeah waiting for the Bears to be good again is like shitcoiners waiting for their shitcoin to get back to ATH.

It's a shame that it's unlikely to finish 0-0 and that it would count on their records as a draw. Which is better than a Loss. You score 0 points and Draw, you both get an L in my eyes.

Of course. All the Shanahan disciples do well. I think Ryans is going to do well in Houston once the roster gets a bit better. He was great as 49ers D coordinator.
Shanahan would be a top 3 coach if he hadn't fucked up the 4th quarter of the superbowl vs the Chiefs and 4th quarter of the NFC championship game vs the Rams. I still think he is a top 10 coach but gotta tighten it up in big games. Even last years NFC Championship, he doesn't throw the challenge flag and hands Philly the first 7 points of the game. Was moot because Purdy got hurt but that game could have come down to that play if Purdy hadn't gotten hurt. Oh well. SB this year.

I didn't put much thought into the pick I know we have one Packers fan and two Jets fans in the Survivor Pool and I absolutely hate the Cowboys. So that was my in depth analysis. Haha.
That being said. I don't think it's crazy or anything. All those games could go either way.
