you dont get nfl survivor...its about winning every week...not sneaking thru...especially in week one

either way in no week do you ever take the texans or a team qb'ed by brian hoyer

in fact before the season starts there are probably 5-10 teams you can say you will never pick this year and houston is one of them

oh i get it....in an office survivor pool with 30 people you take the pats and move on

with 300 people thats not going to cut it. i mean you do you, but that arent 17 good teams in the nfl so at some juncture youre going to have to get by with a crap team. i tried. i failed. i generally fail. im used to it.

you still need to pick like 15 winners...taking houston with one of those 15 is assinine...im not some survivor savant and i wont win either but all my picks will make some sort of sense...houston made none

possibly you go off the board a little bit when theres a handful of people left to try and get the outright win...when theres a million people in it you arent faking anyone out...just win baby

titans +3 bucs - WIN
new orleans +2.5 arizona - LOSS
broncos ravens u51.5 - WIN
dallas/new york o51.5 - WIN
kansas city/houston u41 - LOSS

since 2005 teams who scored 2 non offensive td's and were +2 or more in turnover margin were 56-0 straight up and 55-1 ats....seattle yesterday was a loser in both categories

FanDuel and DraftKings took in $60m this past weekend.

Vegas books only took in $30m

Legalize gambling please. Tax it. Whatever. But there's gobs of money to be made on a harmless thing that can be used for schools and infrastructure

I am pissed at myself for being blinded by the Rams week one success...I figured that defense would devour Washington.
