No prizes; just bragging rights
If you’d like to get in on the fun of picking this week’s winners in the NFL without having to risk any money or win any prizes, I’ve got the contest for you.
This is actually two contests:
- Simply pick the winner (Pick’em)
- Pick against the spread (Spread)
You can participate in either, both, or neither.
- No entries will be accepted after kickoff of the first Thanksgiving Day game.
- If you want to change your entry, simply click the appropriate link below and fill in another entry form. I will use the last one submitted prior to the Bears-Lions kickoff as the official entry.
- The spreads used for the Point Spread contest will be the ones set by me at the time of writing the article and they will not change.
