Stampede Blue Prediction Contest, Results Week 12, Link for Week 13

An overall good week in the Prediction Contest this week.  We did have 1 overall winner from Week 12, and it was KrouseingTiger, with 12 correct.  We also had 1 person get 11 correct, and that was ctnyc.  Rounding out the double digit picks this week, we had a whole mess of people with 10.

The Predictor got semi-back-on-track, getting 9 correct.  I'd like to keep my head above .500 each week, just like this one.

Overall, the Stampede Blue Leaders are as follows after 12 weeks:

Name Week 8 Week 9 Week 10 Week 11 Week 12 Total
TouchdownMonkey 9 8 9 12 9 102
Road Teams 6 10 11 11 10 98
ColtsFanNChiTown 6 6 11 8 9 96
jedye 8 8 9 7 10 96
shake'n'bake 5 9 10 7 6 96
The Lawn Wrangler 7 8 6 7 10 94
scottishcoltsfan 4 9 8 9 8 92

TouchdownMonkey lengthens his lead this week, being the first to hit the century mark.  You can also see that Road Teams are all by themselves in 2nd.  I'm thinking home field advantage isn't what it used to be.  It is pretty common for a Home Team to get 3 points in a spread, for just being at home.  I'm wondering if this shouldn't come down to 2, or even 1 instead.  That would be an interesting experiment, to see if giving 2 points back to the home team, if that number comes down significantly.

The results below are (originally) sorted by Total score.  Feel free to click on a column and sort them yourself.  I've again separated out the "experts" who just picking straight up winners, to make it easier to read. 

Please remember there are 3 games on Thursday (TEN @ DET, SEA @ DAL, ARI @ PHI).  I will keep it open until Sunday at 1:00 ET, but if it is after kickoff on Thursday, you'll just miss those games.  If you want, put your picks for Thursday in the Comments here.
