    In my one pool I am in (out of 2338 people) there are 722 people left so I am trying to be real careful what I pick..

    Im sure alot of you who are still in are trying to come up with the best play as well so I figured we could discuss


    The ones I found

    New England
    Pros- They play Buffalo who is terrible, they are also home
    Cons- still trying to think of one, they play Miami
    Week 4 on monday which is a great game Week 5 their a bye and week 6 in baltimore..might be the best time to get them now


    Baltimore
    Pros- they play at home against a team(clev) that has a terrible QB- whoever it will be and they lost to TB and KC in the 1st two games
    Cons- They dont put up alot of points, granted they played evenly matched teams in the first 2 weeks but I am worried about their scoring.
    Week 4 they play Pitt and week 5 they play Denver...not sure I like them against either team in the upcoming weeks


    Washington
    Pros- after blowing that game to Houston last week they could come out and put a ton of points on the board..St Louis gave up 17 to arizona and 16 to oakland. Washington has a better offense than both
    Cons- They are playing on the road, could also be deflated from losing that game to Houston, and have a look ahead to the Eagles
    Week 4 they play Eagles and week 5 they play GB...dont like them at all against those matchups

    Philadelphia
    Pros- Play Jacksonville team who is not good this year, and Jax gave up 17 to Denver and 38 to the Chargers...Eagles could mimic what the Chargers did
    Cons- they have a QB situation, which could be a distraction also their defense is giving up to much points and rushing yards...worrying Jones-Drew could tear up the D
    Week 4 they play Wash and Week 5 San Fran- depending how they play the next 2 weeks could be a play against SF


    So thats all I see, if anybody likes anything else or one of these lets discuss and hopefully it will hope both of us

    I like using New England as the Week 3 pick. And it may be the best game to use them this season. Baltimore also looks good, but I saving the Ravens for Week 7 at home versus Buffalo.


    Here is my "plan" for my survivor pools:

    SURVIVOR PICK
    WEEK 1: Tampa Bay (home vs. CLE)
    WEEK 2: Kansas City (away vs. CLE)
    WEEK 3: New England (home vs. BUF)
    ----- looking ahead -----
    WEEK 4: Houston (at OAK)
    WEEK 5: Cincinnati (home vs. TB)
    WEEK 6: Pittsburgh (home vs. CLE)
    WEEK 7: Baltimore (home vs. BUF)
    WEEK 8: San Diego (home vs. TEN)
    WEEK 9: Chicago (at BUF)
    WEEK 10: SF (home vs. STL)
    WEEK 11: Atlanta (at STL)
    WEEK 12: Denver (home vs. STL)
    WEEK 13: Minnesota (home vs. BUF)
    WEEK 14: New Orleans (home vs. STL)
    WEEK 15: Indianapolis (home vs. JAX)
    WEEK 16: ???
    WEEK 17: ???
    still available to use: Green Bay, Jets

    It is always good to plan ahead, especially when you are in a large group.  One good planning tool is at survivorgrid.com
