    same strategy as above. Always take home teams.

    We only lost 1 person this week out of 54 to start week. Although 24 have Vikings for tonight...go bears.

    I have NE, Phily, Pitt, Seattle, Vikings, Zona, KC all available to me
    used Houston, Carolina, Dallas, CIncy, Indy, Tennessee, Gbay , and Denver

    I made all 17 weeks of selections week 1 and this week (week 9) have SD home to Tennessee, but could always change if need be

      just changed week 9 to KC, 10 point spread compared to 4.5. I do like SD at home. Better team than their record shows, but Tennessee has inconsistent offense but is capable to drop 30 points. Jax against KC, JAX who I thought would be a sleeper team this year is just a bad team.

      KC should be safe here.....I hope

        I'm with you, Sam!......KC fits both of my parameters for a survivor pool...they are home and they are heavy favorites......easiest play on the board...and even though Alex Smith is out with a concussion, Nick Foles is more than capable of leading the Chiefs to victory...he filled in admirably yesterday going 16 out of 22 for 223 yds and 2 TD's...and Jax looked like dog shit against a mediocre Titans squad...and second consecutive road game against a much better opponent and at a more hostile environment...this pick should be no brainer for anyone still alive in their respective pools considering they still have the KC as an option.

              I have bet against Cleveland three times in my Survivor pool. 1600 entrants at $100 a head. I was on New England this week. Not many people had Pats left. Next week it is going to be Minnesota for me. I think most of the pool will be on the Chiefs. I will be cheering for Jacksonville.

                Hard to go with Vikings after 2 straight losses. Detroit has been inconsistent as they always are and Vikings offense has been ugly last 2 weeks. I get the...they need it factor or they are at home after 2 weeks factor, but when the offense puts up 10 points 2 straight weeks, that doesn't give me full confidence to take them in Eliminator.

                Good luck

                  just got done talking to my lady friend who runs the pool...we are now down to 12 after last night Bears win!...$4,000 pot...we had 80 entrants this year at $50 a shot...anyhow, sorry Jay, but I'm going with the Chiefs like I said on a previous post...best bet on the board if you haven't used them yet...also Green Bay @ home vs Indy is not a bad play if you still have the packers!....

                    This is more of a bet against the Lions rather than a Pick for the Vikings.

                    Also I believe that Blake Bortles and the Jacksonville offense set up nicely versus a troubled Kansas City defense.

                      KC just shut down Andrew Luck and TY Hilton in Indy...much better offense than JAX

                        and KC is usually money at home in Arrowhead stadium...Jax looked like absolute dog shit last week against a mediocre Titans squad...KC is a much better team than the Titans...we shall see!...

                                      I hate betting against good qb's but GB has 5 of their last 8 on the road and the next 3. Splitting GB and KC.

                                      I am 2 left of 37 for 9K (3 places) and 3 left 80 for 15K take all.

                                      Want to find a spot for DAL but have other place t use them down the road.

                                          So, no question I'm a conspiracy theorist however you never know who has knowledge of your picks. Early on no big deal but as things get tight I enter as close to 1am as possible. Good $$ at stake.

                                            Flipped a coin between DAL and GB for my final 3 of 3. Went GB.

                                                I have no issue with Foles. My issue is if somehow he gets hurt.

                                                  Nick Foles played great in relief last week when Smith got knocked out...He is more than capable of getting the job done...especially against the sorry ass Jaguars who have been blown out in consecutive weeks and are in their usual downward spiral this time of the year.

                                                    Huge mistake for me if GB doesn't win.

                                                      Packers are not gonna pull this out today.

                                                      I really wanted to take Falcons this week but they play much weaker teams in 3-4-5 weeks.

                                                            I'll talk to my lady friend tomorrow...I'll send her a text asking her how many are left in the pool and how many took Green Bay and Seattle and I will let you know.......PS...you might be right, Jay....looks like Arizona is the best bet this week...and San Fran is absolute dog shit....second most popular play might be Baltimore this Thursday night against the Browns and I have them at my disposal as well....
