So, everyone got a reprieve with the Cowboys bye week; no one had the burden of their fandom dominating the situation and urging a Cowboys selection from deep within. With no loyalties, however, there was still no perfection acheived as no one was able to go... "10 For 10"!
Make sure you check out hookerhome's fantastic FanPost that details the Week 5 results and trends. Seriously, go read it; it's a smorgasbord of pick information and tracking that gives great insight into how we collectively view things. Remember, you can always get a jump on yourThursday Only picks in HH's FanPost and it will be counted!
I recently recorded a Youtube "video" for SBN BloggingTheBoys (subscribe today!) The Blogging The Boys Power Rankings! See my take on who the best teams in the NFL are at the moment. Who knows, it might help you make your selections. Not to brag (yeah, right), but accounting for home field advantage my rankings went 11-4 in Week Four and 10-4 in Week Five. I'll be including them in my "OMG It's KD's ATS, O/U, ML Predictions" tomorrow so stay tuned!
Good luck, everyone!

CONTEST RULES
1 - YOU MUST PREDICT A WINNER OF THE DALLAS COWBOYS GAME IN YOUR TEN PICKS. If you leave off the Cowboys game, then only nine other games get counted, and the Cowboys game is scored as "wrong", no matter who wins.
2 - You must pick ONLY 10 games. If you pick more than 10, I will score the first nine plus the Cowboys game. If you pick fewer than 10, then you need more fingers to count on; all non-picks will be scored as wrong.
3 - You must make your entry as a comment, not as a reply to another comment. I will only go down the left margin when scoring. Anything indented will get no love here, playa.
4 - You must include the entire matchup in your entry. Simply BOLD the team in the matchup you are picking to win. No lists of only the winners you pick. If you want me to take the time to score your entry, take the time to format it correctly. It's easy, just copy and paste all the matchups from the post, then highlight your pick for each game and hit the B button. Oh, please do me and hookerhome a favor - leave the games in the same order, and delete the extra games that you are not picking (leave just the ten that you want scored). It makes tabulation much easier.
5 - Hit the preview button, because once it's submitted, that's it - there's no turning back.
6 - Picks must be in before the early games of Sunday kickoff in order to try to score 10-for-10. Here are two exceptions:
- If you're including THURSDAY night's game in your picks but not ready to pick Sunday's games, post 'THURSDAY GAME ONLY' in your subject line.
- If you miss the early games kickoff deadline with your picks, you can still submit picks for games that have not kicked off (as long as the Cowboys haven't kicked off). You won't be able to score 10-for-10 without the early games, but that might help you in the overall season-long race.
- Don't forget to look for the "10 For 10" hub on the new front page! You'll always be able to find the latest article or Fan Post there for easy access to get your picks in!
