survivor pool week 12

[SteelersPride]

Who would your play be? We're now deep into the season, and picks get slim!

I have used
Ravens, bills, browns, packers, colts, chiefs, chargers, rams, dolphins, eagles, steelers, bucs.

That leaves me looking at
Raiders
GIants (gulp)
Saints? what if taysom hill backfires agianst a better D?
Seahawks-man that D scares the crap out of me

Hard part is you know looking ahead, your gonna be stuck with crap teams in bad matchups going forward .

looking to next week i can take the vikins vs jags, or raiders vs jets.........then week 14 can take titans vs jags or seahawks vs jets
Week 15 titans vs lions or

i really need to get through this week and i have good plays left based on the schedule


I try to look one week ahead, thats it, because this can end quickly, and injuries etc. I know its gonna come down to week 15-16 and I am stuck with like a patriots vs dolphins or something not appealing but whatever is what it is

In mine I am using the giants. You have to use bad teams sometimes. This is a great opportunity to use a weaker team to keep others for later.

i know it is, but i also dont like getting cute.......this deep....its not a bad play.......i dont know what to expect from brandon allen, odd they arent going with finley

but it’s not being cute. Your taking a team trending up like the giants. Vs a team with no qb, no offensive line, no defense, and potentially no RB.

plus, you have already picked the dolphins and browns. It is a valid strategy to play vs teams as well. And the jets, Jaguars and bengals are the teams to always bet against.

It is...
But looking at matchups for the next few weeks. I have some good plays left.

r u more confident, this week , just this week in the giants winning or say the raiders or Seahawks?

i have zero confidence in the raiders. And the falcons are not a bad team. Especially there offense.
Eagles are the home team playing for a playoff birth still. They may be desperate and not terrible.

so yea. I would be more confident with the giants. Or at least an anti bengal.

Fair enough appreciate the input and reasoning!

 

[BrockForBroglio]

I have to agree with playing the Giants, basically for the reasons Milk stated.

Wow I admit am a bit shocked but I like it

funny thing about survivor pools. You can make the right call at the time and it may not be right. Lost one of my teams last week on the Vikings vs cowboys.

so sometimes you gotta go with your own hunch. Giants are going to be a popular pick this week. But if you don’t like them then you should not pick them.

This pool let’s u bye back in weeks one and two for double the normal entry fee if u lost, one time.

week one I took the colts. Ugh

We don’t have bye backs but we can buy multiple entries. Me and a friend got 10 teams. We are down to one left. We too used the colts in week one.

our jackpot prize is 6000+. So I would love to win. And yes. We are taking the giants this week.

I wanted to pick Washington last week. But that would be too cute. So I didn’t. But now I wish I did. Just so I could say I called that game.

The cutest I got was the eagles playing the cowboys...........

Had a nail biter taking the cards over the dolphins.......

Thats a really nice pot, i think this one is only about 1k total

Usually the pot is much bigger. But COVID scared a lot of people away.

should really bring y’all into this league. 10 dollars per entry.

I won a couple years ago. Split 70/30(final 2 deal). Got the 70 for winning. Won about 7k.

Have you used the Saints? I would think they would be a lock going against a 3rd string RB or practice squad WR at QB.

I know people like to save the better teams for later, but it does you no good if you don't make it to later and are still sitting on those good teams.
