IDYFT NFL Pick'em: Week Eight

Approaching mid-season, it is apparent that parity has leveled the NFL standings. But are they rising to a higher plateau, or merely sinking down to a common valley?

Sloppy though it is, that the defending Superbowl champs were beat down by the Browns (starting a rookie QB) epitomizes the zephyr-blown inconsistency of the 2010 season. Rising to the top? Your humble scribe ran the table, dear friends, and now has a view of the lead. If I can do it, dear friends, then so can you!

But I didn't nail all the bonus questions -- the Pits/Fins & Bucs/Rams had the closest games and Bucs/Rams combined for 18 penalties and 137 yards. The bonus question wasn't precisely worded, so I've given credit to those who answered Denver/Oakland, with 15 penalties and an embarrassing 158 yards.

Buffaloaf is the last winless team, which was +2 for Jess, Adw, Big BM and Josh.

Standings
1. Jess: 20 points (+2)
2. Ryan: 19 points (+1)
Adw: 19 points (+11)
3. Big BM: 18 points (+10)
3. MMMan: 15 points
4. Leftnut: 14 points
5. Barnyard: 8 points
6. Miwacar: 7 points (+1)
Josh: 7 points (+5)
