Broncomania Survival Football

[bro1ncos]

Alright, let's get this little thing set up.


Very simple game. All you have to do is pick one team each week that you know will win. If you are right then you move on to the next week. If you are wrong and your team loses, then the game is over for you. No point spreads, just straight up. Your submission must be in before the first game of the week. Once you pick a team then you cannot pick that team again for the rest of the season. Last person standing wins bragging rights here at the Message Boards. In the event that all remaining players get eliminated in the same week then all players that were still alive in the final week will carry over to the next week.


This is something if you are going to do then you must start this week and play every week. Once you miss a week you are finished, as this would not be fair to others.

Just a quick reminder that games this week start on Thursday night.

If I missed anything or you have questions please post them here.

Post your team for this week in this thread also.

[bro1ncos]

I will be the first to pick this week.

Miami Dolphins are my pony this week.

[BYUBronco]

Carolina is my pick.

[Elway]

Bro1ncos will keep record of those still in it... and no going back to edit your picks, the time stamp will show if you changed it later on.

Still working on who I want to start off with....

Good luck to all.

[Elway]

I'll take Miami for week one.

[BroncoFan#1]

Week 1: I'll take the Broncos over the hapless Bengals

[Denverfanatic]

Sounds like fun...

I will go with Denver.

[longtimebronc]

I'll pick Miami, week 1

[Bronx]

I`ll pick Denver Broncos

[Jared]

Looking at the schedule, I would have to say that I will take Miami. I didn't realize there were so many close matchups in week 1 (TB @ Philly, Oak @ Ten, NO @ Seattle, StL @ NYG, NE @ BUF, NYJ @ Wash). I think those are all pretty closely matched games. Good job schedule makers.

[bro1ncos]

All the people here and we can only get 8 people in this???? Come on guys less then 24 hours till the start of the season.

[Denverfanatic]

Yea, i don't want to win without everyones participation in this thing, i mean how would that look. :p

[BroncoFan#1]

Right on!!! If you consider yourself a die-hard fan, as I am, this is a cool thing to do week in and week out. Let's face it, it isn't going to take you as long to do this as it is to figure out your weekly line-up. So let's all get on board, man the season starts tonight.

[bro1ncos]

Just to summerize.

bro1ncos - Miami
BYUBronco - Carolina
Elway - Miami
BroncoFan#1 - Denver
DenverFanatic - Denver
longtimebronc - Miami
Bronx - Denver
Jared - Miami

Good luck all. If this ends too soon we will start another one after completion.

[longtimebronc]

Go Rams!

[Elway]

I think we all played it safe, BYU may have the edge on us with Carolina this week, their defense is really taking shape.

[Denverfanatic]

Worse case senerio is that we all lose (god forbid if that happens, then that means Cinci will have won and then all them cinci fans will come knocking on our boards).

Well it looks like the Miami people are out.

[JAKE_THE_SNAKE]

IM IN I CHOOSE THE VIKINGS

[bro1ncos]

Yep down to 4 people. I knew I hated swimming mammals.

[Elway]

No wait, there was a fix in... Houston couldn't have won....


Ok... um when I said Miami I meant the Hurricanes????

Ok. My pick sucked.

11 years opening the season with as win & they lose to a 2nd year expansion. Good one Fielder!!! rassafrassin $%^&*

[Denverfanatic]

Well i guess i will be the first one for next week.

my pick will be the NYGiants over Dallas on monday night.

[Jared]

Well,I guess I am out in some kind of record fashion.

Damn Texans!

[BroncoFan#1]

Well, I guess I'll be second this week with my pick of the most-hated, evil empire of the Raiders over the hapless Bengals. Okay, I hate the Raiders as much as everyone else here does, but it's survival football after all. Not to mention, it's the F@##!% Bengals!!!

[bro1ncos]

So Far For week 2:

All that are left playing: DenverFanatic, BroncoFan#1, BYUBronco, and Bronx

DenverFanatic - NY Giants
BroncoFan#1 - Oakland
BYUBronco - Green Bay

[BYUBronco]

Yep, I was the sole one to go out on a limb and I got lucky. This weeks guaranteed win will be . . . Green Bay. There is no way Detroit wins twice in a row, nor GB lose twice in a row at home.


BroncoFan#1 - You make me sick! How can you call yourself a #1 BroncoFan and pick the Raiders!!

BYU Cougar - Pipe up you wind bag. - You definately got lucky on that call.

[BroncoFan#1]

Hey Pal, like I said, I hate the F#!@$4#@% Raiders, but remember, like I said it's survival football. Anyway, after they win this week I won't have to pick them ever a-F#@@#$$%-gain. Besides, LongtimeBronco is right, CAROLINA, got real lucky last week.

[longtimebronc]

You tell him Jersey boy--

[BroncoFan#1]

You know what they say about Jersey. New Jersey: Only the strong survive!

Figuring that GB has no receivers left they are out of the race against Detroit.

I'm taking Denver as always, I can't tell a lie. Denver it is.

[bro1ncos]

Well I haven't seen Bronx around, so looks like we are down to 3. Good luck to all of you.

DenverFanatic - NY Giants
BroncoFan#1 - Oakland
BYUBronco - Green Bay

Well congratulations to you 2. Now I just hope tonight NY Giants don't pull a fast one on me and lose.

Guess they got REAL lucky this week too. Can you belive that they are now 2-0 and a win against the SuperBowl champions.

[BYUBronco]

Carolina was my pick for dark horse this year. And for so many reasons, I wish that Cinci had pulled off the victory against the hated Raiders! Go Cowboys!

[BroncoFan#1]

Everybody was saying the way you beat the Bucs is run right up the middle at them at least 30 times. Low and behold, Carolina runs big bruiser Stephen Davis at least 30 times and the Bucs lose. Hey Spurrier, do you miss Stephen Davis now?

I'll take the first stab at next week's survival matchup. I'll take the Cheeseheads of Green Bay over the desert-dwelling Cardinals

Congratulations you two. I guess I will wait till we restart it. Though i can't beielve that i lost to the Cowgirls this week.

[bro1ncos]

Down to 2.

BroncFan#1 and BYUBronco. Good luck to both of you but one of you be wrong so we can start another game.

[bro1ncos]

SO far only BroncoFan#1 has picked his team: Green Bay


BYUBronco are you picking this week??

[BYUBronco]

San Fran -- Man i'm late

Was beginning to wonder about you. Glad you made it in, now I just hope one of you loses.

BroncoFan#1: Green Bay
BYUBronco: San Francisco

[Denverfanatic]

Good luck to you 2. But please atleast one of you lose so we can restart it.

[bro1ncos]

Well damn. Both guys pick losing reams. On to another week.

[BYUBronco]

Why can't the 49ers get in the end zone? The consolation is that thier kicker, Pochman, is a former BYU Cougar!!

[Denverfanatic]

Well sheesh who won the first one? Or can there be a tie?

[BYUBronco]

Assuming we both continue one more week, I will take the Broncos to pound the Lions. Similiar to the pounding the Raiders took. Wasn't that beautiful?

[Denverfanatic]

I have to agree with ya BYU I will pick the easy one and take Denver also.

[Bronx]

This is sooo cool dudes!The Broncos are playing tonight at 9:00 PM v.s some other team I forget their name,but it stinks that I have to get a shower and don`t have enough time to watch the wholec game,cause I have to go to bed an hour later.

Well anyway I hope they win dudes!
Bronocs rule!Broncos rule!

High 5 to ya Denverfanatic I'm going with my passion the Denver Broncos win or lose doesn't matter to me I know they will be there when we want them too, and that's the playoff. Bye week and our regular QB back hey, we'll be there when they come back after their bye cause technically KC will give out lol. GO BRONCOS

[AsianOrange]

That's all it is about now...it's survival.
