My two cents.
First off if this is for money. I am in a similar pool. Never ever make your Sunday night and Monday night picks any higher than 3 points. Even if it is a slam dunk. If you go into Monday in the race for the money you want to be able to still win the pot whether you win or loose. If you have Monday night for 1 point your chances increase greatly. But if you have monday night for say 11 points and you team loses you are going to be knocked out of the money.
I learned this the hard way a few years back. The giants and jets went into OT and if there was a tie (push) or the giants won it was 8K for me but if they lost I had them for 6 it would knock me into the 200 and something position. WAAAAAAYYYYY out of the money.
This pool has over 3000 people weekly playing. The average weekly winner pot is 10K. 2nd place is usually 5 to 7K.
BTW Giants lost.
As for you picks. Washington sucks even though the Bears have nothing I would have taken them. Two other ones I took different than you was Baltimore over Indy. The Ravens are the surprise team of the AFC this year and I took Atlanta over Philly. Too much turmoil in Philly. Now Westbrook is fighting with the Beagles management over money as well.
Like I said my two cents. But what the Héll do I know? My team is 0-3 right now.

Thanks Scotto, I'll keep those tips in mind for next week. Well, this is one is for smaller money...me and my buddies are on yahoo having fun...the other bigger money pool is similar too...but more money. I won't be devistated if I lose but this is more about bragging rights for me.
Now see I am in chicago so I know the bear situation...they would be lucky to be 6-10 this year, Washington has owned them recently so I can't pick da bears, I just can't...as for Indy and Balt., I thought long and hard about this and I realize Balt has great D and no O...while Indy has great O and no D...I weighed these and it will be a great game...but because I procrastinated I just had to rush to make my pics...I think either has the potential to win but I picked my gut choice. I think Vick is gonna be held back against Phillies D and I haven't seen anyone besides Crumpler, Vick and maybe maybe Dunn provide offense for them. I dunno, I hope all works out.
EDIT1: HAHAHAHA Right as I post N.E. gets a touch against the Gayders....10-7 Pats...Hey YO.... http://www.piranha-fury.com/pfury/style_emoticons/default/rasp.gif
EDIT2: Janikowski misses FG http://www.piranha-fury.com/pfury/style_emoticons/default/rasp.gif

Perhaps it's time to sit back and enjoy the game rather than pick them? 7-9 isn't really that bad considering this is the age of free agency, salary caps and buying playoff teams. Better luck next week.
Well I cant help ya... Being I am 100% correct on College Football this year, I would basically just be giving you the answers, lol.

Football ... pththt!
I lost it for football players when I lived in Jacksonville, FL. True story, I lived in these apartments where a lot of the Jacksonville Jags lived. Every single one of those guys was afraid of my dog. I thought it was hilarious.
Ever since then I look at football players and think "whimps!"

If denver wins tonight, I'll move from 12th to anywhere between 2nd and 4th. I allready won the week with 90 out of 105 (not including denvers game). Hopefully I can get 96/105 http://www.piranha-fury.com/pfury/style_emoticons/default/wootwoot.gif
