Problem has been solved. I misspelled the word football so the password is "footbal'. Whoops.

There isn't much to like for matchups this week. I think I'm going to go with the Saints opening at home. Usually I play these pools based on the loser, but this week I think I'll go with the winner.

Atlanta and Miami would be two of my choices this week.

Because they're not explained anywhere I can find:

--Do you pick 16 for the pick you're MOST or LEAST confident of?

--Do you pick the team you think will win, or lose, in the survivor pool?

In the pickem pool with confidence points it's the most. You are trying to get the highest point total. So if you're really confident Miami is going to beat Buffalo than you put 16 points on that game, and say 1 point on the Jets and Ravens game because you think thats a dead even game that either team could win.

In survivor pick the team you think will win.

That is a risky pick for week one.
