He may have limped across the finish line, but nonetheless, the results are in. Your 2009 Sunny and C Show NFL Picks champion is (*drumroll*): CODY!

Matt		Cody
11-5	Week 17	9-7
165-91	2009 Overal Record	168-88

Though he finished with back-to-back 9-7 performances, Cody was solid all season long. His 168-88 final record puts him in front of some "professionals" (*cough* Mike Golic we're calling you out *cough*).

Can you tell Cody is writing this?

Matt did manage to prevail in our Yahoo! fantasy football championship. So some accolades have to go to him for his accomplishment. However, I'll leave our readers with this:

We will have details for our NFL playoff contest posted soon.

Wow. This is the last NFL picks post for the season. Next time we'll get to crown a winner.

As I mentioned on Facebook and Twitter last week, we will have a playoff contest posted on the blog at the conclusion of this weekend's games. There will be a prize, I promise!

Here's our final regular season picks. Next year I hope we get all of our contributors in on the action.

Happy Holidays to all. We'll be back in a more complete capacity after Jan. 11.

The NFL gods giveth, and the NFL gods taketh away.

A week after Cody's rough weekend set Matt up for an improbable comeback, Matt had a rough weekend of his own (combined with Cody's top-dog performance).

Ouch. A rough weekend for Cody.

Matt wins this battle, but Cody still holds the overall lead.

The race is heating up as we near the end of the regular season, with Matt only three games behind thanks to Cody's worse record of the season.

We hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.

The holiday proved to be pretty good to both of us, although Cody's 12-4 finish resulted in him gaining yet another game on Matt (11-5).

Once again this week we have a lot of differences. It should be fun!

Yuck.

Week ten was a tough week all-around. Cody came out on top of the ugly mess, gaining two games on Matt.

We still look pretty sharp when compared to ESPN.

Looks like I'll be sporting the D. Wade jersey this week on air since my luck ran out this past weekend.

A week after gaining a game on Matt with a mistake pick, he beat me fair and square. He finished with a 9-4 record, while I rolled in with an 8-5 mark.

Once again, we were right in line with ESPN.

Here's our week ten picks:

Matt	Game	Cody
Bears	Bears at 49ers	Bears
Falcons	Falcons at Panthers	Falcons
Dolphins	Buccaneers at Dolphins	Dolphins
Vikings	Lions at Vikings	Vikings
Steelers	Bengals at Steelers	Steelers
Titans	Bills at Titans	Titans

Saints	Saints at Rams	Saints
Jets	Jaguars at Jets	Jets
Raiders	Chiefs at Raiders	Chiefs
Cardinals	Seahawks at Cardinals	Cardinals
Eagles	Eagles at Chargers	Chargers
Cowboys	Cowboys at Packers	Cowboys
Colts	Patriots at Colts	Colts
Ravens	Ravens at Browns	Ravens
9-4	Last Week	8-5
84-45	Overall Record	87-42

So I'm really lucky after all.

After accidentally picking the Panthers over the Cardinals, the Panthers went out and actually won! I wish I could do that more often.

Of course, the helpless Lions lost to the previously-winless Rams. So there goes my happiness.

All in all, we didn't do too bad. I finished 9-4 while Matt came in at 8-5. Only Mike Golic and Accuscore beat me this week.

I haven't decided if Matt will have to wear something since he lost this week. It was a little unfair, but, as the adage goes, "I'd rather be lucky than good."

Here's our week nine picks:

Matt	Game	Cody
Falcons	Redskins at Falcons	Falcons
Bears	Cardinals at Bears	Bears
Bengals	Ravens at Bengals	Ravens
Colts	Texans at Colts	Colts
Jaguars	Chiefs at Jaguars	Jaguars
Patriots	Dolphins at Patriots	Patriots
Packers	Packers at Buccaneers	Packers
Saints	Panthers at Saints	Saints
Seahawks	Lions at Seahawks	Seahawks
Giants	Chargers at Giants	Chargers
Titans	Titans at 49ers	49ers
Eagles	Cowboys at Eagles	Eagles
Steelers	Steelers at Broncos	Steelers
8-5	Last Week	9-4
75-41	Overall Record	79-37

Lucky week seven was only average for us. Both Matt and I finished with matching 9-4 records.

ESPN was about the same.

As we tied, there will be no forced clothing for either of us this week. Thank goodness, I might have had to injure myself if I had a Dwayne Wade jersey on.

Here's our week eight picks:

Matt	Game	Cody
Broncos	Broncos at Ravens	Broncos
Texans	Texans at Bills	Texans
Bears	Browns at Bears	Bears
Cowboys	Seahawks at Cowboys	Cowboys
Dolphins	Dolphins at Jets	Dolphins
Colts	49ers at Colts	Colts
Giants	Giants at Eagles	Giants
Lions	Rams at Lions	Lions
Chargers	Raiders at Chargers	Chargers
Jaguars	Jaguars at Titans	Jaguars
Vikings	Vikings at Packers	Vikings
Cardinals	Panthers at Cardinals	Panthers
Saints	Falcons at Saints	Saints
9-4	Last Week	9-4
67-36	Overall Record	70-33

Props go to Matt this week.

His 11-3 record demolished my 8-6 showing and dismantled every single ESPN prediction. Hey, at least my record fell in line once again.

I'm considering it a birthday present to Matt, as he turned 21 on Tuesday. No more going easy on him.

Now, onto week seven (already!):

Matt	Game	Cody
Packers	Packers at Browns	Packers
Texans	49ers at Texans	Texans
Chargers	Chargers at Chiefs	Chargers
Colts	Colts at Rams	Colts
Patriots	Patriots at Buccaneers	Patriots
Vikings	Vikings at Steelers	Vikings
Panthers	Bills at Panthers	Panthers
Jets	Jets at Raiders	Jets
Bears	Bears at Bengals	Bengals
Cowboys	Falcons at Cowboys	Falcons
Saints	Saints at Dolphins	Saints
Giants	Cardinals at Giants	Giants
Eagles	Eagles at Redskins	Eagles
11-3	Last Week	8-6
58-32	Overall Record	61-29

Through the 1 p.m. games Sunday, both Matt and I were doing well. Unfortunately, the second half of the schedule was not so good.

All things considered, Matt's 8-6 record and my 10-4 record weren't all that bad. ESPN was about the same.

For those that are wondering, no, I do not hate ESPN. I just post their picks to make a point that just about anybody can be an analyst if you watch enough sports.

Week six should be interesting. Lots of games that should be close.

Matt	Game	Cody
Bengals	Texans at Bengals	Bengals
Packers	Lions at Packers	Packers
Jaguars	Rams at Jaguars	Jaguars
Vikings	Ravens at Vikings	Vikings
Saints	Giants at Saints	Saints
Steelers	Browns at Steelers	Steelers
Panthers	Panthers at Buccaneers	Panthers
Chiefs	Chiefs at Redskins	Redskins
Eagles	Eagles at Raiders	Eagles
Cardinals	Cardinals at Seahawks	Cardinals
Patriots	Titans at Patriots	Patriots
Jets	Bills at Jets	Jets
Falcons	Bears at Falcons	Bears
Broncos	Broncos at Chargers	Chargers
8-6	Last Week	10-4
47-29	Overall Record	53-23

Week four was another good week for us. Cody took top honors with an 11-3 record while Matt came in at 10-4.

At ESPN, only Chris Mortensen posted a better record than Cody.

Winning was a recurrent theme for Cody this weekend. Not only did he beat Matt in picks, he also beat him in a head-to-head fantasy matchup, and a round of Tiger Woods 2010. Matt is going to have to step up his game if he doesn't want to get run out of the building by his co-host.

Look for us to preview a couple of these games on air tonight.

Matt	Game	Cody
Ravens	Bengals at Ravens	Ravens
Bills	Browns at Bills	Browns
Panthers	Redskins at Panthers	Panthers
Steelers	Steelers at Lions	Steelers
Cowboys	Cowboys at Chiefs	Cowboys
Giants	Raiders at Giants	Giants
Eagles	Buccaneers at Eagles	Eagles
Vikings	Vikings at Rams	Vikings
49ers	Falcons at 49ers	Falcons
Cardinals	Texans at Cardinals	Cardinals
Patriots	Patriots at Broncos	Patriots
Jaguars	Jaguars at Seahawks	Jaguars
Colts	Colts at Titans	Colts
Jets	Jets at Dolphins	Jets
10-4	Last Week	11-3
39-23	Overall Record	43-19

Week four: the start of the bye week. For teams like the Eagles, it comes not a moment too soon as they wait for Donovan McNabb's ribs to heal.

We certainly don't need a bye week. Last week was good for both of us -- Matt finished 12-4 while Cody came in with another 11-5 performance.

Matt beat most ESPN analysts and Cody was right in line.

Further props go to Matt for predicting the Lions win over the Redskins.

Without further adieu, here's our week four picks.

Matt	Game	Cody
Ravens	Ravens at Patriots	Patriots
Bears	Lions at Bears	Bears
Bengals	Bengals at Browns	Bengals
Colts	Seahawks at Colts	Colts
Giants	Giants at Chiefs	Giants
Titans	Titans at Jaguars	Titans
Redskins	Buccaneers at Redskins	Redskins
Texans	Raiders at Texans	Texans
Saints	Jets at Saints	Saints
Bills	Bills at Dolphins	Dolphins
Cowboys	Cowboys at Broncos	Cowboys
49ers	Rams at 49ers	49ers
Steelers	Chargers at Steelers	Chargers
Vikings	Packers at Vikings	Vikings
12-4	Last Week	11-5
29-19	Overall Record	32-16

On to week three we go.

It would appear that we showed we are no experts in week two. Matt went 6-10 while Cody went 10-6. However, the best ESPN pick was 11-5, so we're no worse than those guys.

As you may notice, Matt may be trying to redeem himself after a dismal week as he is predicting the first Lions win.

Here's our week three picks:

Matt	Game	Cody
Falcons	Falcons at Patriots	Patriots
Jets	Titans at Jets	Titans
Ravens	Browns at Ravens	Ravens
Lions	Redskins at Lions	Redskins
Packers	Packers at Rams	Packers
Eagles	Chiefs at Eagles	Eagles

Bears	Bears at Seahawks	Bears
Bills	Saints at Bills	Saints
Steelers	Steelers at Bengals	Steelers
Chargers	Dolphins at Chargers	Dolphins
Broncos	Broncos at Raiders	Broncos
Colts	Colts at Cardinals	Colts
Cowboys	Panthers at Cowboys	Cowboys
6-10	Last Week	10-6
17-15	Overall Record	21-11

Week one has come and gone, so here are our picks for the second week of the NFL season.

Surprise, neither of us went perfect in week one. Matt holds the worst pick of the week, as he had picked the Rams to knock off the Seahawks.

We both came in at 11-5 on the week. The "experts" at ESPN were mostly right in line with us.

Matt	Game	Cody
Patriots	Patriots at Jets	Patriots
Falcons	Panthers at Falcons	Falcons
Packers	Bengals at Packers	Packers
Titans	Texans at Titans	Titans
Vikings	Vikings at Lions	Vikings
Jaguars	Cardinals at Jaguars	Cardinals
