Suicide pool discussion

Just looking to talk about some of your thoughts on the best options for a week 1 suicide pick...

I have been eyeing Miami Detroit and vegas

i know they aren’t big favs or “sure winners” 

but I do like getting some bad teams out of the way early if I can 

I could also enter again and play a night game before the week is over 

I've got 4 entries in betonline's $100k pool. For week 1 I split them 50/50 between the Colts and the Steelers. The only way the Colts lose to the Jags is if Rivers throws a bunch of picks. I want to use the Steelers before Ben's arm falls off again and I don't see them losing to the Giants with the state of the Giants and the Steeler's awesome D-line. Both are teams I don't really trust going forward, so might as well use them early against weak opponents. 

initially I had the raiders locked from Thursday but i have been shying off of it big time  

last year in my local pool I ended up winning with the pats in like week 14-15? The other guy had the raiders in the last game at home in the epic collapse against the jags 

I went Baltimore for week 1. The past 2 years they have come out strong. I hope they can do it again. Good luck this season my friends

id like to save them personally 

Basically in week 1 I’m looking for something that almost nobody else is picking... and like a smth says I will try and get Detroit OUT of the way 

You know, in a 17 week season there are teams you’ll never have to bet on. I’d think Detroit would be one of them. 

like I said I won last year and o had to go back and look it up it was week 15

here were my picks by week

baltimorw

houston

sf

kc

Philly

washington

jacksonville

Minisota

Buffalo 

Chicago 

oakland

Pittsburgh

neq orleans 

green bay

New England 

My philosophy has always been if you can get those 2-3 shit teams out of the way... then when others have 1-2 good options later on I might have 4

I can see that but you do realize Patricia has lost to Chicago 4 straight. Never mind. The guy certainly can’t lose 5 in a row, not with his job on the line.

Personally, I’m starting with the Pats and Niners. Who knows how either of these teams will go this year (SB hangover, no TB for NE) but I like them to start fast at home.

Colts are my pick

I'm picking the Colts as well DoubleUp.. 

I would go philly.  Wash offensive line is rubbish and will struggle week 1, I do not have a great deal of faith in philly against higher quality opponents so it seems like a good spot to use them.  

Stay in your basement 

this is just my 3rd season doing this and I like your thoughts. Will you be posting each weeks pick here in this thread. I look forward to this season. I’m going up against a lot of veterans this season

I took the Bengals and Joe Burrow to upset the Chargers as a road favorite  in Draft Kings free 1M Survivor Pool.

New Charger qb (no idea who without looking) and they are traveling east of the Mississippi.

I have buffalo, Indy, Baltimore, Carolina in my survivor pools
