Board 8 > 2011 NFL Ladder Contest - Official Week 1 Topic *Now with Week 1 Bonus Question*

(+) Yeah! (+)

If you made a pick in the previous topic, I now have it recorded, so you do not need to post it again. However, be sure to answer the bonus question for your chance at a bonus point.

Welcome to the 2011 NFL Ladder Contest! In this wonderful contest created by BBallman7, every week during the regular season you have a challenge. If you get it correct, you move onto the next level; if you get it wrong, you stay at that level to try again the next week. Each level gets tougher as you progress. There will also be a bonus question every week; getting the bonus correct adds to your tiebreaker score which in the end would be used to decide a winner if there are multiple people on the highest-reached level. There are no limits to sign-ups, and you can join at any time during the season.

Right now, everyone is on Level 1 since this is the start of the season.

Level 1: Pick a winner. Simply pick one team to win their game. If they win, you go on to level 2.

Schedule:
Thursday, September 8th
New Orleans at Green Bay

Sunday, September 11th
Pittsburgh at Baltimore
Indianapolis at Houston
Cincinnati at Cleveland
Tennessee at Jacksonville
Atlanta at Chicago
Philadelphia at St. Louis
Detroit at Tampa Bay
Buffalo at Kansas City
New York Giants at Washington
Seattle at San Francisco
Carolina at Arizona
Minnesota at San Diego
Dallas at New York Jets

Monday, September 12th
New England at Miami
Oakland at Denver


Bonus Question: Will any games go to overtime this week?

Simply a yes/no answer this week. Most bonus questions will not be like this. You may still answer the bonus question after the Thursday game, but if you do, the result of that game will be discounted.


I will post the list of picks from the previous topic in here for future reference. It took them seven days and 16 hours to restore power to the house. Great to finally be back.
