Nice writeup.
Solid writeup, my only concern would be the London location. But Chicago should still win.
Might end up switching SF and BUF at weeks 7/9, then I get SF @ WAS and BUF vs WAS. I feel like that makes week 9 a touch safer.
Gets even harder for me this week as all the big faves I already used up.
Agree with everything here except for the pats game. Barkley is out and those that have NE left almost have to use them as most other options are gone. I already used them vs. Miami.
Weird take. I see zero chance New England loses tomorrow. The game is in New England, it's a short week for a road team to travel/prepare. Also Engram has been ruled out, and Barkley has been extremely doubtful to suit up.
Totally agree. I agree that the Pats haven't been playing great, but the Giants are so banged up, and obviously have a rookie going against BB. We all know how that has fared in the past.
think i'm riding the Cowboys this week. I'm down to my last pick because the Bears suck
i would also def avoid that Falcons play
I normally try to avoid all Primetime games and teams coming off of byes, but felt this was the safest play with what I had left. Didn't trust Wash or SF on the road. Luckily, I had already used SD or that may have been my dagger last night. Primetime could be a killer this week. Let's go GB!
Those are some ballsy calls. Don't get too fancy in survivor pools... were you just wanting to save the Pats? Picking an underdog (seattle) in a survivor pool seems like suicide.
Used NE in week 2. I went anti Miami the first 4 weeks and took philly over the jets in week 5.
Is this a thing? Got any stats?
Fair enough. Ya I guess if you already used Dallas, Baltimore, and the Chargers as the "Anti-Miami" picks, then the Packers game was the game with the biggest spread of the week outside of Washington. Was just surprised you said you almost took Seattle, as they were actually underdogs.
Re: bye weeks....I meant picking against the team that was on the bye. If I survive tonight, I'm rolling Buffalo for sure next week.
Never considered Dallas this week, felt like a trap. Try to stay with home favs.
Yeah, Seattle was my “gut” pick. Didn’t trust it enough to chase it, but hindsight is 20/20. Felt the same with GB and Det being a Primetime game, but not as much. Being down Adams worries me, but having a solid defense and run game + Aaron Rodgers is what had me hedge on the side of GB. Hope it was the right call. Thanks for the well wishes! I’m gonna need them
No sweat...no sweat at all...Pretty sure you individually willed this to happen.
Going buffalo this week at home and SF week 11 at home vs ARI most likely. I like some other team matchups ill have available between weeks 8 & 10(if I survive) where I wouldn't need to use Buff. Don't love SF schedule outside of this game and 2 games vs ARI as games for what should be a pure lock for this SF team.
Agreed, but seeing this as the last spot, in their current incarnation, Pittsburgh is a no-brainer choice. MIN has some future use (@home vs DEN wk 11), so has me leaning in PIT direction. Plus, coming off the bye, they are 6-4 (0-3 last three years, but all tough matchups; NOS, @SEA, @BAL)
True, Vikings are a better save. As much as I preach against that, it does serve as a good tiebreaker.
