Yikes, talk about walking a fine line, as Miami barely eeks out the win over Tampa Bay. I got a Dallas win in OT, changed my pick from Washington to Detroit 2 minutes before they Skins lost to the Chiefs and now this. My time is coming.

What do you say?

Yeah, but the Chiefs also lost against Jamarcus Russel too this year. Think of it this way they've already won 3 games which is a 50% increase from last year. They'll mail in the rest of the season now.

I have a bevy of games I could pick and it's causing me issues. I think I already used my NFC North teams all beating up Detroit.

Saints at Redskins Road game after a big Monday Night win and they might have the Division won...possible trap. They get Tampa at home eventually.

Lions at Bengals, Lions have had an extended break, and the Bengals lost to the Raiders and didn't really dominate the Browns. Might want to save them for their game against KC later

Bronco's at Chiefs, The game is in Arrowhead and the Chiefs might wake up after the gong show from last week. Again they get KC at home so thats a smarter pick.

Raiders at Steelers, 10 day break for the Raiders and my man JaMarcus isn't their QB anymore, but Pittsburgh needs this win bad. I think this might be my best chance left for the Steelers.

I'll avoid the Colts over the Titans although the Colts should be motivated to win this.

Not sure who to pick here, a lot of the easier games fall in the last two weeks for my best remaining picks and they might be clinched than.

Congrats troutman!

I'm in another survival pool, and I am still in it. There are three of us left; a fourth was eliminated today with Pittsburgh too. I made a point of picking separate teams in most weeks, mainly to reduce the chance of getting eliminated in both. It was neat to try and pick two teams every week, but I obviously failed since one of them died.

Can someone make me a banner for my signature?

Should I keep making picks to see how long I last?

Do it, it's fun. I had a perfect season last year in a survival pool. What's funny is that it ended after week 6 or 7. There were a pile of upsets early on, and I was lucky enough to avoid them.

Go for it. I think you could pull it off to last the entire year.
