100% save Seattle , use Cinci this week..they haven't lost at home since 2012
I agree with this. Save Seattle.
They are TOO large of a favorite, and yes, I understand that sounds contradictory. But by not using them now, you can use them later, when they will still be a strong favorite.
That's not the case with the Bengals. For the rest of the season, it's unlikely the Bengals won't be favored by as much as they are this week.
Ideally, each week you want to pick a team that has an excellent chance to win (of course) but at the same time will never be favored again, meaning you’re using this team at the ideal time.

Thanks wolffer, but like I said, I'd rater here why not than why. And your argument isn't very compelling. Not trying to be 'cute', just trying to win $190,000. Seattle has been rather unimpressive, and many have lost with them to this point. That is perhaps more of a reason to take Of course oakland is the pits, but this is the nfl.
The thing is you only really have 3 weeks left to use Seattle. This week, next week and week 17. They won't be large favorites the rest of their games. The goal at this point is to survive and advance as most of the others in your pool I bet have used Seattle.
Not saying that Cincy isn't a good pick but you can take them next week vs Cleveland. Plus this is a sandwich game for Cincy and they might be over looking the Hags this weekend.

Plus, Cincy will be the number one picked team this week just like Dallas was last week and Seattle the week before and we know what happened with those two previous. I always avoid taking the most popular choice.

I've said earlier, I can reuse teams as many times as I want to. So I'm not worried about who I'm using later. And I'm pretty sure Seattle will be #1 pick this week. The sandwich is something that concerns me however. I would not use them next week. I always stay away from divisional games, like Dallas and Seattle the week before.

This maybe be true in your pool where you can use teams over and over again but in every other pool Cincy will be the number one choice this week.

I get it....I'm only thinking about me though. I decided that since Cincy is stuck between the Ravens and a Thursday date with Cleveland, and Seattle has looked so unimpressive that I'm going with the Chiefs again. KC has the best O & D out of the three, and I don't think the Jets are more than a half step ahead of Jax & Oak. We'll see.....
