Scotty, "Swinging for the fence." Yeah I have to pick the Jets sometime. Wish I picked em last week haha. Eventually everyone is going to have to be bold. There are some crappy teams out there. For the record, my first choice was what you picked then I decided to go bolder. Edited October 7, 2021 by Scott7975 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally, the more people in a survivor pool, the more risk you can take on with your picks because there will inevitably be some big favorite that loses and knocks a bunch of people out at once. To win a large survivor pool, you might need to stand out from the crowd. Of course I wouldn't want to take a big risk every week. In a small survivor pool, going with more consensus picks might be a better strategy as others might take an unnecessary risk early in the season and lose. As always, YMMV.

I decided to just stay with my pick anyways. If the Jets win I am still in and I will remember this for the future picks. If the Jets lose I will remember all this for next year.

Ethan in Cleveland Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 This is going to be a tough week. Many favorites are on the road. I'm leaning Tampa over Philadelphia or Cinci over Detroit. I already pick the Packers and Rams. Pittsburgh at home against the Seahawks also looks like a decent choice but neither team is playing well. But Ben likely beats Geno at home. Week 1: Rams over Bears Week 2: Packers over Lions Week 3: Denver over Jets Week 4: Bills over Texans Week 5 : Dallas over the Giants Week 6: ???

I am confident that the Bills are a more complete team this year than they have ever been. KC defense has been a noticeable weakness this year. Obviously a tough match up but it was always my intention to take the toughest team on the Bills schedule. Live and die by this team. Crush it lads. I'm so chuffed that the Bills won . I'm usually rubbish at survivor so with confidence flowing I have decided to pick all different opposing teams to make it even harder for myself. I don't expect I will last much longer with this bold strategy. Week 1 Panthers over Jets Week 2 Browns over Texans Week 3 Raiders over Dolphins Week 4 Bengals over Jags Week 5 Bills over Chiefs Week 6 Steelers over Seahawks. As mentioned previously this is all about Geno Smith versus the Steelers D. Picking against the Seahawks while Rus is down just seems like a smart move. Week 6 (b) Cowboys over Patriots. I don't see the Pats keeping up with Dak. Edited October 17, 2021 by Seoulofstone Adding second pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan in Cleveland Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Week 1: Rams over Bears Week 2: Packers over Lions Week 3: Denver over Jets Week 4: Bills over Texans Week 5 : Dallas over the Giants Week 6: Steelers over Seattle - Was leaning Tampa but Seattle travelling West to East (even playing at night) with Geno and a terrible defense. I think Steelers win at home and then the wheels fall off. After Seattle they may be only favored in two of the remaining 11 games (Detroit and Chicago) and could easily lose the final 8 games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
