Survivor Pool Week 9........who ya got????

[Special K]

We are down to 15 people in the pool.

 

I think the obvious pick is the Rams this week, and that's likely who I will go with, but what else is out there......

 

You could go Packers or Lions if you haven't used them yet........maybe SF or the Chargers although they are both road teams making the long trip to the East Coast.

 

Is anyone tempted to take an "Out of the Box" selection in the hopes that the Rams lose, wiping out the rest of the pool??

I think you hit the right ones.  Ravens might be slightly out of the box.  They’ll win.  Cowboys, Pats, Texans also out of the box a little.

I’d go Rams, as they have the benefit of the bye and playing at home.  Puka will likely be back too.  Chargers would be my #2, although they get the Raiders at home in a few weeks off the bye.  I’d rather use them then.

Rams…this is the last week of set it and forget it.  The next couple of weeks get really tough.

I've got one of my entries alive in a pool that started at 817 and is currently at 121.  My picks so far:

• Denver
• LA Rams
• Seattle
• Buffalo
• Detroit
• Green Bay
• Kansas City
• Indianapolis

I think the Pats*** would be a solid pick this week (at home vs. Atlanta) but I have a strange feeling they are about to lay an egg, and of course if I pick them they'll do just that.  So...I'm going with the Chargers at Tennessee.  I don't love taking road teams but the Titans are awful.

Rams over Saints 

Chargers over Titans

That's a lot of elite teams you've used already. Next week is tough, I'm glad I have Buffalo. 

 

Planning on Chargers as well, but I may end up switching to GB if Dalton starts again. Down to 1/5 entries in my pool.

I think most people took them week 1 but I like your way of thinking.  

 

Edit: -My bad.  I accidentally read week 11 and thought they were playing the Chiefs.

Bills are much more of a lock then the Broncos, IMO. Bills are the pick next week.

Geno Smith against that defense?  He already threw two picks.

If I had Denver still, I’d prob take them on the short week at home against the Raiders.  That said, thinking this is going to be the week to use the Bills here.  One thing I don’t like is Miami get a couple extra days, although these teams already know each other very well and it’s going to feel like another home game on the road.  And not only does Allen generally play great in Miami, it seems to be a thing for Cook now too.

I already used the Bills, but I think I've got to choose between Denver, Seattle, or Chicago......leaning Seattle right now, but we shall see.
