Surviovor Pools Week 5

[pwdump]

Ok, assuming you have NE and Indy available still those would be the easy picks. However, I am thinking this might be the week to take Tenn and hope one of the big boys gets knocked off.

im taking tenn ova atl prob atl been good on offense last 2 weeks tho but i like tenn in tis 1 so far

I'm taking NE. I used Indy this last week. I've still got Dallas in the bank, as well as SD if they ever get things figured out. I guess I'm not quite ready to roll the dice on Tenn. Besides, Tenn will only get better as we go along, I bet.

Use the Gmen this week, it will be a rout

You're still alive in your pool?

I'm saving Indy for another week (I hope). I'm jumping on the Titan winning streak(one I think) and they also had a bye week to get healthy...Hope I feel the same way around 4:00

Don't have NE anymore so I am thinking Indy or Tenny

Don't like Green Bay and Dallas on prime-time

Cardinals in week 5?

Any other survivor participants considering Arizona here? Their road record concerns, but considering how banged up St. Louis is, & that they are playing Ferrotte at QB, can the Cards lose this??

Arizona *might* win this game but I wouldn't touch it with a 10-foot pole, especially for one-and-done suicide pools

This game doesn't sit well with me for survivor pools for 2 reasons: road favorite and divisional matchups.

If you are so inclined to pick the Cards, i think they have good shot in Week 12 (against Cleveland) and Week 15 (against Atlanta), both in the desert

Good luck my friends.

Tennessee over Atlanta
New England over Cleveland
Washington over Detroit
Houston over Miami
Indianapolis over Tampa Bay


Strongest-NE

OK, what about Indy?
Week 9: INDY over NE - hell no
Week 11: INDY over KC - hell yes
Week 13: INDY over JAX - no
Week 16: INDY over HOU - div game; no
Week 17: INDY over TEN - div game; no

Analysis:

We can use NE Weeks 5, 8 and 12.
We can use INDY Weeks 5 and 11... so if we don't use them this week, we have to use them Week 11.
We can use TEN Weeks 5, 8 and 9.
If we don't use HOU this week, we may never will.
We can use WAS Weeks 5, 13, and maybe 7 and 14.

Forget about using NE Week 12. We have some nice options like JAX over BUF and NYG over MIN.

So, if we use NE Week 5, we can take TEN Week 8 or 9, and INDY Week 11.

Thoughts?

I don't like the Miami-Houston matchup for a couple of reasons. For starter, Miami is 0-4 and is hungry for its first win, at this stage of the game, i am almost hesitant to bet on or against teams that are still winless, anything can happen really

Second is even though Miami rushing D is brutal, Houston rushing offense is nothing to write home about. Status of Ahman Green and Andre Johnson also needs to be taken into account

[tblues2005]

Miami will win their first game at home not on the road, Houston is all banged up right now but I think they are better than Miami is currently. I wouldn't touch this one either because there is better games that you can choose this week than taking Houston after a loss at Atlanta.

KC's victory wiped me out! Unbelievable.
