by Andy | Nov 4, 2015 | 2015 season, NFL Picks

We’ve got a way to go before I’m booking my flight to Vegas, but we all hit nine or more games in week eight.

Maybe we can all salvage some dignity the second half of the season and show we actually know a little something about this game.

Tony and Rich led with 11. Andy hit 10. Tony has taken on the season-long lead with Rich and Andy visible in the rear-view mirror.

Here are the standings:

NFL Picks 2015: Week 8

by Zoneblitz Staff | Oct 27, 2015 | 2015 season, NFL Picks

We’re seven weeks in and we might as well admit – none of us know what the hell is going to happen next.

Devonta Freeman leads the league in rushing, followed by the scrap heap duo of Chris Johnson and Doug Martin. Meanwhile Aaron Rodgers is throwing two picks and ranking somewhere in the middle of the pack in passing yards.

And our writers continue to be all over the dart board when it comes to picking games. This week it was Tony’s turn to post an 11-3 mark, while Andy dropped to the bottom at 8-6. Everyone else was in the middle.

And with a quick glance at this week’s docket, it appears as though the results likely will be much the same.

Here are the standings:

Week six provided a wide variety of results among our pickers. A couple guys hit 10. One hit six. We usually don’t vary quite that widely.

That said, the results allowed the overall standings to tighten up some, as Fantasy Editor Maggio took the biggest hit.

Here are the standings:

Where are the must-see match-ups? Week 7 is yet another mediocre slate of games with little more than fantasy results driving the casual fan to the television. Here are our picks: (more…)

There were a bunch of wild endings in week five, especially in the early slate of games. But most of us ended up faring fairly well. Three of us hit double-digit wins.

Here are the standings so far.

Week four felt like another exercise in futility, but we actually didn’t fare too badly. Fantasy Editor Maggio continues showing he can pick more than fake football ranks. He won the week with 12 out of 15 correct. Andy and Tony trailed by one. Here are the standings:

NFL Picks 2015: Week 4

by Zoneblitz Staff | Sep 29, 2015 | 2015 season, NFL Picks

For as rough as week two was, we managed to weather another unpredictable week three far better.

Andy and Rich rebounded from a combined sub-.500 effort with matching 14-2 marks. That jumped Andy into a tie for the season lead with Anthony Maggio and Rich to within just a few games.

Everyone scored at least 11 right.

Here are the standings so far:

Week four starts the bye weeks and also includes an 8:30 a.m. kickoff in the states, as Miami and the Jets tangle in London.

Still some real surprises in who is winless (Baltimore? Detroit?) and who is undefeated (Atlanta?) to this point. Will normalcy return? Or is this going to be just another unpredictable NFL season? Here are our picks for week four:
