Silvstedt - Browns (1-5)
theaweomestevr -Falcons (2-5)
VeryInsane - Titans/Chiefs (1-5)
Yonex - Browns/Titans (1-4)

Of note, we now only have two people who need to get a team right before everyone has gotten each team right at least once.

Some people are edging towards having all teams with at least 3 right.

In 2010, the most games anyone had right for all teams was 7 by MitsuruKirijo
In 2009, the most games anyone had right for all teams was also 7 by DA_J, Jukkie, yazzy14, and ZackAttack117

In 2009, the following people went undefeated with the following teams:
Jukkie - Chargers
Runemistress - Lions, Rams
Dancedreamer - Rams

In 2010, nobody went undefeated with any teams. Closest was Dancedreamer who went 14-2 with the panthers.

In 2010, the best anyone was in week 7 was Runemistress who was 65-39
In 2009, the best anyone was in week 7 was Meow1000 who was 75-28

Best record ever: 175-81
Best record in 2010: 161-94
Most Bonus Points: 330 (Doom_Dealer and Dancedreamer)

Only 5 people have been in the league all 3 years. Of those, I lead with 410-204. I got my 200th game wrong on Sunday. I need 90 more right to get 500 correct in 3 years.

New Orleans Saints @ St. Louis Rams LOCK
The Saints have another Bye Week I see.

Miami Dolphins @ New York Giants LOCK
The Dolphins almost beat the Broncos. But they showed they are capable of losing any game. And this one will be no different. It may even be easier for them to lose.

Arizona Cardinals @ Baltimore Ravens
Baltimore's Pathetic Offense should be playing for redemption. Their defense should be able to pull out the win, regardless of how Flacco does.

Minnesota Vikings @ Carolina Panthers
Surprisingly, one of the harder games to pick this week, I think. It could go either way.

Indianapolis Colts @ Tennessee Titans
The Colts could surprise everyone and win. Who knows with the AFC South. Things there just do not make any sense.

Jacksonville Jaguars @ Houston Texans
Jacksonville's defense was admirable last week. And their offense managed to hold on. But that game was way closer than it should've been.

Detroit Lions @ Denver Broncos
This feels like such a trap game. But i'm rooting for Detroit. Which means I should pick Denver, because my bias could be clouding my judgment here. I hope detroit wins though. I'd like to see them make the playoffs for the first time in over a decade.

Washington Redskins @ Buffalo Bills
I don't trust either of these teams too much -- but one has to pull it off. I'll take the home team.

Cincinnati Bengals @ Seattle Seahawks
The Bengals could be on the road to winning another divisional title. Surprisingly.

Cleveland Browns @ San Francisco 49ers
I guess it depends on who shows up, but the 49ers should be able to pull a win out. The 49ers can win their division as early as Week 11.

New England Patriots @ Pittsburgh Steelers
A fun matchup, but the Patriots should be able to help the Bengals in their fight for the division.

Dallas Cowboys @ Philadelphia Eagles
The dream team seems like only a dream.

San Diego Chargers @ Kansas City Chiefs
Slight edge to San Diego.
