NFL Suicide Pool Discussion Thread - Page 9 - Fantasy Sports -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

So far this year, I have gone with KC week 1, Oak week 2, Carolina week 3, and Tennessee week 4. No line over 4, yet all were pretty easy wins. Maybe I need to rethink my survivor strategy and just play these games straight up.

Really early, but you're setup well for the rest of the season, I'm just glad I didn't pick Minn last week or Cincy this week, those were the agressive picks I was considering.

Looking ahead to week 5, Rams looking like a strong choice, assumming Falcons will get the most action.

Well now I feel dumb for having already used St Louis.

I guess Atlanta this week? Nervous that Sjax will still be out, but think they are a better pick than GB.

Browns viable IMO. Rams available for me though. Riding this JAX train to the bottom until the wheels fall off.

Took a risk this week and won with the Redskins. Now, I can take the Rams or Falcons this week and then ride the Jax train until their bye.

Rams or Falcons for me....this is probably the best week to take the Rams all year and the Falcons will just get better and better (I assume). Prolly rolling with Rams this week.

Going to be a lot of unhappy people this week. Really interested in seeing how the Rams defend the passing game with Shorts and Blackmon now both in the lineup. Going to stay away from that game, and hope nobody else does.

falcons

the rams are a legit bottom 5 team, not trusting them no matter how bad jacksonville is

Interesting that no one is talking about picking GB.

I'm on STL in both leagues I'm still alive in, but really want to pick another game in one of them. If someone is going to **** the bed and roll in it, it will be the Rams.

I'm rolling deep with Atlanta

hoping that Gabbert blows out his shoulder on the first JAX offensive series against STL, so they have a chance

Pools could end this week with a couple upsets. Feels like everyone going to be on one of two games.

Falcons play @ Carolina, the Packers & 49ers on the weeks you can't take the team playing Jacksonville.

That was my thought as well

Only division game you can take Atlanta is really vs TB and other then that there at many good spots for them

I'm thinking things could clear up next week because of how many people will not have Denver available.

Ultimately went with the Chargers.

Can't go against my Jets even though ATL is prob a lock. Also didn't feel comfortable going with STL vs JAX. I just see MJD running wild on STL. Should be interesting to watch.

Well see. I think the Chargers will beat the Raiders just wish the game wasn't on at 11:30pm EST LOL. Super late. Talk about football being on all day...literally.

I'm going with the Packers. Rams and Falcons are too popular given they're both only slightly more likely to win this week.

Edit: Did not even look at crazy line movement since Calvin Johnson was announced as inactive. Green Bay now just as likely as Atlanta to win this week, they are a no brainer pick given so many people have locked in their picks already.
