Smart or suicide?

[mcbaseball10]

Suicide. Not enough weeks in the season to pick one of the bottomfeeders.

[mcbaseball10]

I am torn between Cincy and Arizona this week..

[Deuce]

Don't touch those assholes. Either team could knock the cover off the ball or be shut out.

[Regul8er]

Suicide......you can't possibly tell me you've made it to week #11, and are considering taking the Lions? Your finally starting to see the home stretch, don't blow it now.

I want to start saving playoff teams. But I do indeed see your point.

[Regul8er]

Don't look too far ahead here seaborneq....you need to focus on getting through one week at a time.

[aguy]

It's probably unnecessary to make such a risky pick. Future plans mean nothing if you don't win this week.

[JoshW]

Who have you used so far?

[cobra_king]

The idea of survivor pools is to get to week 17. You have to plan accordingly. At this point in the season you should have a good idea of who you plan on using every single week from here on out. It's nothing set in stone as many factors can influence decisions between now and a month from now (injuries). However the concept of getting thru one week at a time is flawed since getting knocked out in week 11 or week 16 yields the same result.

[GiveMeaBJ]

Just ask the people who thought it was smart to take the Lions at home over the Rams.

[slacker00]

There are lots of variables to consider:

1)How many players are left in your pool.(If there are a lot, then you might need to gamble, otherwise play it safe.)

2)What are your remaining teams?(It hard to believe that Detroit is your best option this week.)

3)What's the prize structure? (I assume it's winner-take-all, but other prize structures might affect strategy.)

[daneblazer]

way too many options this week to take Detroilet

I was torn between Cincy/Arizona/Jax

Decided to go w/ Arizona this week and hope for the best, then play Cincy next.

AZ is safe. The Cards have been great on the road. Great at stopping the run. Blowout this week

[podunk]

good play with arizona

[mr. leisure]

Warner will want to beat the shit out of the rams .

[pico]

you should save det for thanksgiving

[pico]

well, they're playing the packers. i think they'll lose

[pico]

they're playing chicago for the last game of the season. they might win that one

[seaborneq]

Who have you used so far?

New York Giants
Jacksonville
Seattle
Minnesota
San Francisco
Green Bay
New England
San Diego
Philadelphia
Tennessee
are the teams I have used.

[seaborneq]

Indy, NO, Ariz, Dallas, Pitts. Denver, and Cinny should get me through the regular season. I hope everyone else has fallen off by the end of the regular season.

[daneblazer]

Pittsburgh, Dallas, or New Orleans

You have waaaaaaay too many options to use anything but a TD fave.

[landers781]

I used Dallas this week in mine

[seaborneq]

Whew. I was considering changing to Carolina last night. Glad I didn't. Hell I would have gotten the same result as what Detroit may give.

[slacker00]

Use Pitts. No use saving them for the playoffs, they might not even make it in the wicked AFC. Even if they make the playoffs, they'll be road dogs the whole way.

Use Dallas next, they melt down late in the season, not to mention the playoffs. Use them while they are still a reasonable play.

I might save the Saints for round 2 of the playoffs, if you're into saving teams. Otherwise, play them soon before they clinch everything and let the foot off the gas.

[darrell74]

Strategy:

If you have more than 1 entry, go with Detroit, for one of them.

If you have just 1, stay with a heavy chaulk.

The worse feeling you can have is to be taken out by Detroit, in week # 11.
Just ask anybody that took Detroit over St. Louis, a few weeks, ago. Those people are in deep regret.

Anyways:
Cincy- Oakland has given up.
New Orleans- Most lopsided matchup, but still road division Rivalry. Buccs getting better, Saints wins are getting smaller.
Pitt- Pitt has no Polomalu, but how does KC still win?
Dallas- At home, but division rivalry. Does Dallas shake off Green Bat humiliation.
Indy- I really do believe the Colts will win this. But I understand that their is a lot of reasons to not take Indy.

All good options

[seaborneq]

right now I am still holding to Detroit. I may change before kickoff.

[iceminers26]

I think Detroit wins, but there has to be better options out there, good luck.

[tripp]

suicide. toss up game IMO

i would go with a team like the Giants, Cowboys, Packers, or Jags if you have any of them left.

I have used all of those except the Cowpokes.

[tripp]

use the boys then. no sense in taking a 3 pt favorite who has 1 win in the past two seasons over a 6-3 team at home vs the last place team in their division.

wash won last week but that was due to Kyle Orton getting hurt. Dallas should have no issues with them this week.

I see now you havent used Pitt or NO either. Can't see either losing, especially NO. Probably wouldn't touch Pitt on the road, but NO and Dallas are both pretty safe bets to win SU

[seaborneq]

24-24 middle of second quarter. I am screwed.

[seaborneq]

19.8% Jacksonville
15.4% Detroit
13.8% Arizona
12.7% Dallas
12.7% Pittsburgh
9.5% Cincinnati

80% of the plays on these 6 teams. Wow!!

[seaborneq]

31-27 Lions. I still don't feel good about it.

[jon13009]

Bether than watching Romo and the Cowboys looking awful. Jeezzz.......
