    I am in a huge survivor pool and would like some input from you guys. Pool started with over 1000 and is down to 295 teams. I started with 3 teams and am down to one.  We can't repeat teams so I would like to keep a few good teams for later.  I also don't want to get too risky because two weeks ago, many faves crapped the bed. Here are the two I've narrowed it down to. 

    Baltimore(obviously biggest line and coming off a loss)

    KC(no line due to QB situation in Jax)

    My lean is KC. Jax is possibly going 3rd QB and the game is in KC. Would love to save Baltimore for later.

     

    Thanks!

    I'm of the theory that you can't and shouldn't save teams for later... It's called Survivor, so that you can survive the week. Play for the week, not for what is going to happen 2-3 weeks down the schedule. You might not be around in 2-3 weeks to play those guaranteed, sure-fire picks!  Just my $.02
    I'm rolling with New Orleans this week, as I've used Balty already!

    I had 3 teams originally. Two are gone thanks to Cincy losing to Cleveland and San Diego losing to Oakland.  I picked 3 different picks for each week trying to vary my options for later. Now I have one team left and have already used GB,Atl,NE,Indy,NYG.  The easier call is Baltimore for sure, but I'm hesitant to keep picking the biggest fave on the board.  I don't want to pick a risky pick solely to save Baltimore. However, KC looks good in this matchup to me  Thanks for the feedback. I have until Saturday to commit.

    If you have Baltimore left you have to use them.  I am in a large pool myself started w/ 8 entries down to 2 and already used balt and n.o. so in a bind this week.  from denver, kc and seattle as picks I like thinking KC 1st especially if no garrard next seattle 3rd denver.  I wish I had balt left on one of these cards...gotta go w/ them especially w/ a good % of that 295 left that probably used them already and a decent % that used both n.o and balt so you are in drivers seat.  I actually like Buff to cover this week and make this game interesting for a while but can't give them legit shot of winning. GL!

I started with 3 teams and am down to one.  We can't repeat teams so I would like to keep a few good teams for later.  I also don't want to get too risky because two weeks ago, many faves crapped the bed. Here are the two I've narrowed it down to. 

    Baltimore(obviously biggest line and coming off a loss)

    KC(no line due to QB situation in Jax)

    My lean is KC. Jax is possibly going 3rd QB and the game is in KC. Would love to save Baltimore for later.

     

    Thanks!

    Dont be foolish, take the win now...you might not make it to later to take Balti...

    ive done well in survivor pools, i look at schedule when it is a toss up or if i think i can find a better spot later... Map out your possibilities after week 5 (go down week to week and check out what possible spots spreads will be...)

    Im probably going to take Balti but....

    The only other game i would say you could consider is Denver at home (denver is a 9 pt fav over Oak, and that way you can save Balt for another time)

    Week 8 is going to be tough... week 10 i think and week 11 too.

    Week 8, biggest spread will probably be dallas at home vs Jax , i estimate the spread will be -7 around pending on how Dallas does this week.

    i might actually have to take KC in week 8 at home vs buff and use Dallas for another week cause there is a week where dallas plays a shitty team but there are no other good games (i think week 10 or 11)
