Week 8 was very kind to APC; nearly a third of y'all were in double digits last week and there were plenty of 9's and 8's in there, also. aaronetc led the way with 12 correct picks! Thanks to everybody that has stuck around, so far; without your participation, this thing is just another FanPost with bad jokes/analysis. With that said, there are still 9 more weeks to go... GET AT ME, BROS AND SIS (sisses? I dunno).

And now for some totally-not-laced-with-cyanide candy bars:

1) Week 9 Pick 'Em deadline: Thursday, November 1 by 8:20 PM ET / 7:20 PM Central.

2) Please un-rec the Week 8 post, and recommend this one to 9 out of every 10 of your friends!

3) If you are in the path of Hurricane Sandy, please be safe and stay in one piece!

mike's picks:

Kansas City at San Diego: I don't trust the Chargers at all, and this game will be played on Dia de los Muertos... screw it. CHIEFS.

Arizona at Green Bay: Yay, Jordy is back! PACKERS.

Detroit at Jacksonville: Impressive win at home vs SEA last week for Detroit, and still no MJD for JAX [and countless others, as this Jags fan will attest to (U MAD, BRO?)]. LIONS.

Chicago at Tennessee: I smell an upset here (or is it bear scat?). TITANS.

Denver at Cincinnati: If your defense shuts down Drew Brees and Co., you're doing something right (took 'em long enough). BRONCOS.

Carolina at Washington: Meh, I'll just go with WAS because they're at home. REDSKINS.

Baltimore at Cleveland: If the weather is bad in CLE again, I like... the Browns? Yes, the Browns. BROWNS.

Miami at Indianapolis: Tannehill is hurting, but Coach Philbin has these guys playing some good football right now. DOLPHINS.

Buffalo at Houston: BUF has been pummeled by teams with records over .500 this season (at NYJ: 28-48, vs NE: 28-52, at SF: 3-45). TEXANS.

Minnesota at Seattle: The Vikings' fall back to Earth continues. SEAHAWKS.

Tampa Bay at Oakland: Tampa can beat the bad teams, they just have to figure out how to take that next step. BUCCANEERS.

Pittsburgh at N.Y. Giants: The Giants D has been shaky these last 2 weeks; I'm taking PIT in the upset. STEELERS.

Dallas at Atlanta: Things That Make You Go Hm... : Dallas is 3-0 in odd-numbered weeks. COWBOYS.

Philadelphia at New Orleans: Just because. SAINTS.

On bye: New England, N.Y. Jets, San Francisco, St. Louis.
