I have 2 clear cut favs that are my 2 top fav options imo:

Seahwaks@home

Falcons@home

I'm all ready on the Seahawks-6.5 for 2 units...but the prize for this pool is much phater. If anyone has a legit reason they drop this game please chime in. I know their oline looks brutal right now and that's my only concern as of now.

Gotta like the Falcons...but man that KC team is no slooch.


Favs I hate this week:

Broncos, Saints, Colts

Don't think I want to touch any of these. The Broncos played nearly a full quarter of OT last week and now hit the road.

The Saints are looking great but the Lions have extra rest from playing on Thanksgiving and they are also a dome team w/ a good QB.

Colts: road favs out doors on MNF=hell no

I'm torn on the Chargers-3.5, this might be a good spot to back them on the ML vs a Tampa team that just played the Seahawks and won. Usually teams after a Seahawk game let down. They are going cross country, both warm weather grass teams. The Bucs are a little hot right now.

Those are my only fav options...actually the Niners are -1 now and I was actually leaning Niners here...call me crazy. Bears just lost another LB, Trevethon. That's both their middle LB's in that 3-4 scheme. Kap and Hyde could have good games running the ball. Barkley was 28-55 last week but the WR's had 10 drops! 2 in the endzone...Both these teams are currently in an embarrassing race for the 2nd overall draft pick. Is the loser actually a winner in the grand scheme of things?

Other dog options:

Philly+1.5
Bears+1
Jets+2
Panthers+7
Tampa+3.5
Bills+3
Redskins+1
Jax+3.5
Rams&Texans(no f*ckin way)

And possibly my best dog option to win SU...DETROIT ROCK CITY+6.5

Once again this is a SU winner pool. 6 left including me. Any advice appreciated

I'd consider the Falcons as your best pick something tells me that Seahawks loss last week in Tampa Bay wasn't a hiccup but some major issues on the health of Russell Wilson and the lack of offensive production since beating the Patriots.  Panthers +7


Had the Saints last week in my survivor pool  12 remaining and my options that I'm looking at this week are Falcons, Packers. and ugh the Seahawks

BOL

I had NO last week as well.

My best options this week are Pittsburgh, Atlanta or Seattle. I was going to take Denver if they were healthy but not trusting a back up QB on the road. Atlanta scares me because they give up 27.5 points a game and KC no slouch. Good spot for Atlanta though. I really think the Giants luck runs out this week although not expecting a blowout. Seattle has had trouble beating Carolina lately but the Panthers have some key injuries and may have thrown in the towel after last week.

You learn more from losing than winning. You learn how to keep going.

I like the Falcons, I'm in a survivor without lines and that's my pick, already used the Seahawks.

Seatle will bounce back at home. It will be loud in Seattles stadium and that will give Cam Newton a tough time, like previous matchups. 


Add to that they have seemed out of sync, especially Benjamin's sideline tirade recently. They are missing Ryan Khalil and that has disrupted things offensively for them and they have been unable to establish a ground game. 

I see the Seahawks defense dominating this game and Seattle doing enough to win by 8-10 points

Revenge for the Seahawks too...they got smoked by Carolina in the playoffs.

Devil's advocate, they scored only 3 offensive points last week against Tampa

If I had Seattle available in my pool, I'd be all over them this week.

GB scares me because one good game on MNF does not automatically erase a month (or more) of bad games, and also because Rodgers's hammy injury may keep him from scrambling for 1st downs, something that has arguably been more consistent this year than his passing.

I do like Atlanta, but I will probably go with PIttsburgh myself and then use ATL against the Lambs next week. Still 57 left in my pool, seems like a bunch of us will make it through all 17 weeks but who knows...

Best of luck to all.

Colts are my favorite game of this week. Colts should and most likely will win straight up. I'm laying the chalk and taking the ML @ -125. Good luck bud.

The Bills are starting to tickle my Sac...

This team is in must win mode every week w/ the Pats on top and the Phins streaking. The wild card race in the AFC is going to be nuts.

Oakland is coming off a great down to the wire win in a tough game.

 Carr is going to play but I'm sure that Pinky is tender.

Raiders going to KC on Thursday might be packing their bags early
