Can a team score negative points in the NFL? This will be answered by the bears this weekend.

I would love to pick the team playing against my Panthers, and it's probably a very smart pick, but there's something about the "displaced team dealing with a tragedy back home" that has me scared that they're going to be fired up and will play the game of their lives to open the season. I hope all you guys picking the Saints are right though so Carolina can get off to a good start

I had New Orleans since Carolina is probably going to have a stout defense once again, but the whole New Orleans displacement factor was weigning on me, too. Because I changed my pick, Radii, Carolina should roll handily.

I count only 4 people who have been eliminated (with Craigsca left tonight) . I'll post Week 2 sometime tomorrow morning with the updated scores.

I was wondering this over the weekend- if you get 0, you get 0 points but are still in the game, correct?

SI, the rules say: "If your Low outscores the High, you are eliminated for the rest of the season."

So it looks like a 0 score keeps you alive.
