Yes the popular picks do lose more than you think . Remember last year I think Week 2 Phily wnet out to Oakland as a 14.5 favorite and everyone had them in their suicide pick and they lost.
There are many more examples........i like to pick a not as heavy favorite to avoid the above from happening. This week I like Atlanta for my suicide pick
Bingo
Coming from someone who went 17-0 in a suicide pool 4 years ago; the key is to not picking the teams who are heavy favorites. Pick your spots and be skimpy. Look vor value every week and use teams such as the Packers this week as a last resort. You don't want to be stuck having to pick the Rams in week 17.
That being said, I'll be going with the Raiders this week even though I think Atlanta rolls.
Do not worry about looking ahead and saving teams for your picks . It is all about advancing one week at a time.
It does you zero good to save Green Bay , Saints, whoever for Weeks 17 and 17 if you are knocked out of the pool now does it ?
I agree plan ahead but a division game at home alway harder to win then a non-divisional foe esp when they both suck!! always go with the non-divisional foe ... hence take the packers this week!!
