    Weekly NFL Suicide Discussion

    Would be interesting to see what everyone is on each week. We already start off with a tough week 1.

    Well Cowboys surprised last night and covered. Dak looked like a world beater. Who knows what happens in week one after that game last night?

    First couple weeks of the season should be a feel out process for betting IMO. Week 3 then attack.

    Carolina would be my pick but I decided to go with the Broncos
    Broncos D will be solid and teddy will have lots of offensive weapons to throw at
    ITs a 50/50 thats why they call it gambling

    My 2nd pool , Double elimination, $50 buyin, but the rebuys are only $20 for the first 4 weeks. This is a smaller pool but seems like a no-brainer to use as many teams as you can that you have little use for later.

    With all that being said, I'm leaning pretty strongly toward CAR with my 2 entries.

    Plenty of places to use DEN later, makes no sense to me to use them on the road. One of my cardinal rules as avoiding road picks as much as you can.

    SF and LAR for Survivor - almost too easy and obvious. After what we saw Thursday, an upset wouldn't shock me. Week 1 always dicey...

    You're using browns as ur suicide pick? If they lose, that's it, your season is over.

    Would love some serious survivor folks in here.

    I'm 8-0 in a 800 entry pool with 20% gone week1. In pole position heading to week 2.

    Looking at SEA/KC/CLV/PIT/TB

    2-0 in smaller pool with rebuy. Used CAR for 2 picks.

    WEEK 2

    Have to think Browns, GBAY, TBAY will be the big 3

    Browns in my mind are way too high priced even against Houston. I want them to win and look as they did week 1 and I will take Browns week 3 against Bears at home

    GBAY coming off embarrassing loss against Saints. But will the real Packers show up week 2? We know Lions aren't good, so we shall see. Gamble pic, but still somewhat safe

    TBAY no objections. Really just strategy, if you want to use them early week 2 or hold them for later

    the long term issue with holding is if you are eliminated then you held for no reason

    I personally have 2 entries and rolling with GBAY and TBAY

    In my rebuy pool I'm actually thinking of splitting CIN/CHI between my 2 picks and suffering the $20 rebuy on 1 of the 2. Neither has much EV to me.

    In my bigger pool considering CLV for 3, GB for 1, SEA for 1, maybe PIT for 1, and possibly using most of my TB for 2. Also AZ for 1 or more, any thoughts here?

    Regarding TB, saving for later can be great but one Brady injury and who knows??

    My gut says CLV wins but I'm not sure exactly how easily. OL a mess?

    Fading the Falcons is a viable strategy in my opinion. Arthur Smith is an idiot, some of the worst play calling after the 1st qtr that I've ever seen. They made zero adjustments in the 2nd half and Philly just beat on Matty Ice. TB is an absolute lock here and I'm not hesitating giving up the 12.5, this is going to be a blowout.

    ML less than -1000 by game time cannot be justified.
    Line is not high, either. Remember they would have covered against Dallas if not for one stupid unnecessary fumble
    from yet another receiver that wants the TD for himself more than for the team.

    Whales will continue pushing the ML up, should be -14.

    Let us be sensible. They can win by 28+.

    The injuries in the secondary are probably going away too. We'll see tomorrow.

    I found $ with TB vs DAL. I think I'm using a good portion of my remaining 5/8 picks on TB and worrying about next week next week.

    I'm all about FV but with a 44 yr old QB you are 1 play from being done.

    Hey, better to be lucky that good. LOL , hopefully you followed through. I have a 40% rebuy through 4 weeks so I'm rolling the proverbial dice and trying to buy weeks with teams with little FV. Looking at NYG (I know they suxed) and LV week 3.

    I think I'm mostly looking to advance a week in my larger single elimination pool wk2 and taking TB/CLV and fill in 3rd options. 8-0 right now. Roughly 18K to the winner.

    Any thoughts on 3rd options SEA/PIT/AZ/NE/GB? As of now in Rodgers I do not trust.
