Survior Week 2

Who yinz like for this week?


There were a lot of short lines last week, while Week 2 seems to offer more potentially lopsided matchups. Let’s break it down.





Thinking SD or Minn this week?

I'm just glad you guys all keep looking at "good" teams to take right now. Solid strategy!

Chargers or Green Bay .A winner is a winner and trying to save "Good "teams until the end will leave you out of the pool with alot of good teams left and your money gone by the wayside.

You would be correct pp if I had any expectation of this pool lasting until the last 3 or 4 weeks. I don't think it will. One of these weeks most of the pool will be on one "good" team (like this, Green Bay is the popular pick) and something unexpected will happen and they'll lose, and somehow my weaker pick (like KC this week for me) will look BRILLIANT! MUAHAHAHAHA!

In any event, you're right on a win is a win. But when we get to week 9 or 10, I still want all those big teams available to me. That's my strategy anyways, so hopefully it pays off.

Well I have had better success just picking a winner or best team rather than trying to "Save" the very good teams. I have won a big survivor pool before but Good luck and I see your strategy hoping the hammer will drop on a good team . How many in your pool? We have 800 in ours.

I picked KC last week in the upset but didn't have the Kahunas to use in survivor. I went with Green Bay and it was kind of risky given their bad streak at Philly.
