7th week of the season but 2nd week of this game. Pick any 6 teams from the spread below. If they cover the spread, you get the points, if they don't, you lose the points. It's not about which team wins or losses the game. The favored team is on the left, the points they must win by is in the middle, and the underdog is on the right.
So for example, if you think Minnesota will beat the Jets by at least 3 points or more, pick Minnesota, if you think the Jets will lose by less than 3 (or win) pick the Jets. The correct answer will be worth 3 points.

Just for fun, I'd like to try a new game, to see how it goes and give everyone one more thing to be stressed about every weekend. If it works out maybe Funky can offer prizes next year. 
It's fairly simple. Pick any 6 games based on the points spread. If you get the pick right, that's how many points you get. If you get it wrong, that's how many points you lose.
For example, Philadelphia is favored by 3 over the Vikings on Sunday, if you were to pick the Eagles to win by 3 and they in fact win by 3 or more, you'd get 3 points. If they win by less than 3 (or lose), you would lose 3 points. If you pick the Vikings to lose by less than 3, and they in fact cover, or win, you'd get 3 points. If they lose by 3 or more, you lose 3 points. A push will be half points. No picking both teams from the same game. That's it. I told you it was simple.
It's all going to depend on how many points you're willing to gamble. If you pick all the low spread games, you're not going to lose many points if you're wrong, but you're also not going to gain many points if you're right.
I'll post the spread every week on Tuesday or Wednesday. Sometimes the spread changes by the end of the week, but we'll always go by the first spread I post. So if Rodgers gets injured trying to save kittens from a burning animal shelter Friday morning causing the Packers to go from 7 point favorites to 7 point underdogs overnight, the Packers will still be favored by 7 for this game.
Post edits will be allowed as long as they happen before your earliest game begins. So if you pick a Thursday night team, you won't be allowed to make any post edits after the Thursday night game begins, not even for your Sunday games. If you forget to make your picks and the Sunday noon games have already begun, you can still pick the later games before they begin. Pretty much all the same rules as pick-4.
So for example, if you think Minnesota will beat the Jets by at least 3 points or more, pick Minnesota, if you think the Jets will lose by less than 3 (or win) pick the Jets. The correct answer will be worth 3 points.
