Just to kill some time while combining two things most people here enjoy -- football and getting TPS.

Win TPs's for coming up with the best prediction for:
- winner (1)
- closest to actual final score (2 - if final score is exact match - 5 tps -->you have to get the winner right though)
- MVP of the game (1)
- Any unusual play you predict.  Examples: Safety, kickoff return for TD, punt return for TD, flea-flicker play -- something you don't see every game.  Manning throwing for a touchdown or getting sacked doesn't qualify.  has to be something really notable.  -->  limit this to one choice rather than listing every possible play that could happen in an effort to rack up TPs

Winner: Seattle
Score: 24-21
MVP: Marshawn Lynch
Unusual play: Marshawn Lynch runs for a 75 yard TD for the win. There's a controversial non-call involving holding. The play is upheld after booth review. The picture in the papers the next day is of Manning with a "I can't believe this just happened" face.

Well Madden says Denver wins 31-28 in overtime on a Matt Praeter Field Goal, but I'm going all in with Tecmo Bowl on this one.

Winner: Denver
Score: 40-38
MVP: Manning
Unusual Play: Von Miller wins the Bronco's the game on an overtime safety.

Winner: Denver
Score: 31-27
MVP: According to the guy who wins it, Jesus.  (ok probably Peyton)
Weird play: Big catch by Harvin on a key drive, bigger hit by Denver, Harvin goes limp from concussion and fumbles, Denver recovery.  Bill Simmons wins 100-1 prop bet on the play, never shuts up about it.
