People in weeks 1-4 of Survivor threads always emphasize savings teams for later weeks based off of recent seasons. That isn't terrible strategy but Seattle is clearly on the way down. They have the worst OL in the NFL, no running backs, average receivers, and an overrated defense. Not one unit on their team is as good as it was 2014-2016.Wilson has been running for his life 10 yards behind the line of scrimmage the first three weeks and it's hurt his confidence.
Remember Seattle beat the 49ers 12-9. The Colts are off a win and better than the 49ers. Seattle is risky regardless of the inflated spread.
As a Washington native, hardcore 49er fan, and even more die hard football fan I agree completely. I follow both these teams very closely.
This is the only week to use Seattle if you're going to. They usually start out slow but get going, this year isn't the case. The 49ers D line is stocked with talent, but still young, and every play the entire Seattle O line was on the ground. I bet the TN vs Seattle game and slept like a baby.
I've got 3 of 5 picks left, would of basically won the league if NE went down. (I play in a 100 man survivor of not very sophisticated players frankly).
We have about 60 players left. I have 3 entries, my weeks have gone as follows:
1: BUFF- BAL - PHIL
2: RAMS - CAR - GB
3: RAMS - OAK - NE
The biggest faves this week are (SEA/NE/ATL/GB/AZ/KC/DAL), and the only ones I'd feel comfortable picking. A lot of the noobs have used the premium teams early so I'm trying to navigate correctly and setup for some big falls in weeks 5-7.
All advice and insight would be welcome. I'm looking at Survivorgrid now to plot some sort of strategy.
