I'm starting to feel like a glory hunter picking the lions as my team at the start of the season :D

Was your choice inspired by Burnley's partnership with 'Visit Detroit'? ;)

Only one pick for me this week: Packers to, hopefully, beat those Bears to a pulp!

Ha maybe! To be honest my other criteria were the city just feels a bit of an industrial underdog. When I watched last year on and off I really liked watching Gibbs, and I felt like Goff was given a rough time by the Rams. Wanted him to do well. I doubt anyone stops the chiefs but Lions are up there with a chance among the rest

Packers please.

I suppose we have the delights of the cowboys game live on Thursday. For a side that is so shite, they seem to end up on sky rather too often, although I appreciate that they don't have a choice this time.

The general consensus in my family is the super bowl will be Chiefs vs Lions and a Lions win
Goff seems to have found the perfect team by sheer luck

GW 11 results

Hi all, apologies for the slightly late posting of scores and next GW info! Quite a few interesting games this week, Packers got really lucky with the Bears missing a last minute field goal attempt, Lions smashed another team and the Chiefs perfect record comes to an end - well worth watching the highlights to see Josh Allen's TD Run to win the game if you haven't already done so.

Also, big shout out to the Steelers who have now won 5 on the spin after beating the Ravens. They have a tough run of games until the end of the season, but I am hoping they can maintain the form and make the postseason games.

Table stands as follows:

Points - Player
8 - Cowick clarets
8 - Dvalley69
8 - WillsClarets
8 - Belial
8 - TimShorts
7 - MrTopTier
7 - claretonthecoast1882
6 - Foshiznik
6 - Poulton-le-claret
5 - Meath_Claret
5 - Tricky Trevor
4 - Offaly_Clarets IRE

As ever, let me know if there are any errors. GW 12 info to follow soon.

Panthers taking the chiefs to overtime?

At least the seahawks won at home to arizona. That game, and two defeats to the rams might as well be awarded at the start of the season giving them extra bye-weeks.
