NFL Picks: Week 16 Results / Week 17 Picks

Welcome back to NFL Picks, where the end is in sight. The playoff picture is becoming focused as the path to Miami now goes through Indianapolis and New Orleans.

Here's those standout picks from Week 16:

• EVERYONE'S CORRECT picks: Green Bay, New England, Philadelphia, Arizona and San Francisco.
• EVERYONE'S WRONG picks: New Orleans and Minnesota.
• xxInspirationxx was the ONLY one to pick the Tennessee Titans WRONG on Christmas night.
• JohnnyX77 was the only one to pick Buffalo and Kansas City wrong in their respective games.
• JohnnyX77 was the ONLY one to pick Carolina CORRECT in their big win over the G-Men.
• BlazenHawks was the ONLY one to get the N.Y. Jets CORRECT in their win over Indy.
• Stopable was the only one to pick the Redskins and got it wrong.

Our only two point conversion game that worked out was Tampa beating New Orleans. Unfortunately, nobody picked the Bucs.

Here's the rules for the playoff picks: Wild Card round will be worth 2 points per game, Divisional Round will be worth 3 per game, 4 for the Conference Championship games and 5 for the Super Bowl.

Next week I'll add in all of our divisional winners (worth 5 points each) which will really shake up the standings, and I'll show you guys how our Super Bowl teams are doing that we picked back at the beginning of the season (or Week 10).
