    Survivor Pool Week 11

    Is anyone looking at New Orleans for this week ? I don't typically consider road teams in this kind of Pool but I just think this is a bad spot for the Chiefs for many reasons 1. The Chiefs just came off 3 straight tough, emotionally drained games against the Jets/Bucs/Chargers. 2. Pretty much...

    Survivor Pool Week 11

    I am looking at Atlanta and Miami since I don't have Philly, Indy and Carolina available anymore. I really like the Falcons in this spot, they are very under-rated and Denver is still having all sorts of problems on the D and even at the RB position. If I don't take the Falcons now, I may have...

    Survivor Pool Week 10

    Phew on to Week 11, have never seen that exciting of a game, Adrian Peterson for President My intuition about the Miami game was correct, that would have knocked 2 more folks off the Pool. See you guys next week and best of luck with your picks.

    Survivor Pool Week 10

    After much hemming and hawing again, I have decided to go with the Minnesota Vikings for this week. I don't have San Diego, Carolina and the Jets available and I don't feel particularly strong about the young Dolphins off an impressive win and the Cards who pretty much has that division locked...

    Survivor Pool Week 10

    I find using a spreadsheet really helps. I have columns for Pool name, entry fee, picks deadline, website, misc notes and simply lay out the Weeks from Week 1 to Week 17. No confusion there for me. As for the games this week, I am leaning towards the Vikings and the Texans. I don't have many...

    Survivor Pool Week 10

    First and foremost, I am staying away from Arizona. It is a divisional matchup and it's on prime-time to boot. San Fran is off a bye and who knows what Mike Singletary did or said that could inspire these guys. Anything can happen here. Shaun Hill is an upgrade over JTO. I need to find out...

    Surivivor Pool Week 9

    Still alive with them Colts. Their D is brutal though, i am glad I don't need to pick them again. We only lost 1 player this weekend who was on Jacksonville. Still 8 left, could be down to 3 if Detroit hung on but I am alive for another week and that's all it matters.

    Surivivor Pool Week 9

    After much hemming and hawing (again!), I have decided to go with the Indianapolis Colts for the game tonight. There really is no reason why a 3-4 team like the Colts is a 6.5 favorite over a 5-2 Patriots team and I will have to side with the books... Both Addai and Sanders are expected to play...

    Surivivor Pool Week 9

    Is anyone considering the Colts ? Colts is at home and has revenge on their minds, Addai and Sanders should be back Indy lost this past Monday so they can't afford to fall further behind. Cassel gets sacked way too often and is turn-over prone. Harrison is OUT for the Pats and the running game...

    Surivivor Pool Week 9

    I remember Miami with Harrington at the helm coming into Chicago and blasted the Bears a couple of years ago...that was a 17 dog win outright. I wouldn't put my money in Kyle Orton's hands.

    Surivivor Pool Week 9

    I still have the Bills left and will be looking at them. This is a divisional matchup so it's not ideal but I like the fact the Bills lost last week and should be more focused, while the Jets won (very unconvincingly I might add) I could see a couple of INTs from Favre here. Bills is usually...

    Survivor Pool Week 8

    On to next week! Rams made things interesting and Cassel was no Brady that's for sure but Week 9 here we come! Nobody in my pool was eliminated.

    Survivor Pool Week 8

    After much hemming and hawing (I don't have the Jets, Eagles or Panthers at my disposal) I have decided to go with the New England Patriots for my Week 8 picks. I don't like the fact the Pats blew out the Broncos on MNF and Harrison is OUT and Sammy Morris is questionable but they still have...

    Survivor Pool Week 8

    I am surprised nobody has mentioned the Eagles. The Falcons has improved but they are much better at home than on the road and the 2 times they faced defenses of Philly caliber, they got blown out (Tampa and Carrolina) The Eagles cant afford to fall any further behind and with the Cowboys being...

    Surivivor Pool Week 7

    I have decided to keep it simple and go with the Giants for this week. The 49ers is just a bad team with JTO prone to turnovers and they have to travel to the East Coast to play in the early time slot against a Giants team decidedly more focus after getting embarrassed on Prime Time this past...

    Surivivor Pool Week 7

    If anyone still has the Giants left, they will have to be the prime candidate for Week 7 pick. They have a great chance to get ahead in the tough NFC East, especially now that Romo is out for a month and Dallas may be in trouble. I am still not sold on the Browns, they played great last night...

    Surivivor Pool Week 7

    I still have Washington and the Giants so I will keep it simple and most probably will go with one of them, depending on the outcomes for tonight's game. If the Giants lose tonight, I will lean heavily towards them next week, if they win, complacency may set in and you saw how they played...

    Survivor Pool Week 6

    The Jets got the job done for me. We are down to 9 and for Week 7, I am looking at the Giants and the Redskins (pending te outcomes of tonight's game) 6 people in my pool has already picked the Giants in previous weeks so I imagine they will have to go with the Skins or perhaps Houston. The...

    Survivor Pool Week 6

    I have decided to go with the Jets for this week. This is not a divisional game so it meets one of my criteria and Carson Palmer is OUT so that can only help the Jets. Line has skyrocketed to -9. The Bengals team has been competitive the last few matchups but they may be in over their heads...

    Survivor Pool Week 6

    At this stage, I am staying away from winless teams looking for their first win. The NFL is notorious for its parity and as the saying goes...on any given Sunday, a blocked punt here, an INT there and you could be DOA. I am taking the Rams, Bengals, and Lions off my list for that reason.
