Busch1724 Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Stay away from divisional week one games...hence why it was wise to avoid N.O. and Pittsburgh. Green Bay should win, but you never know. Baltimore looked good to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
China Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Wow. I thought GB was going to let me down and I'd be out week 1, but somehow they pulled it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoulSkin Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I thought this was the most obvious ratbirds win of the year, so no need on saving them. Riding high on a one game streak! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Missed the re-registering deadline darn it! On the plus side it doesn’t show I went out in week one for once. ? I think this is the way forward! Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bliz Posted September 10, 2018 Author Share Posted September 10, 2018 I think this might be the first year we didn't lose anyone week 1 to "forgot to make a pick". Looks like all of my nagging finally paid off. Let's keep that going for week 2. I don't like to get fancy on these picks week 1. Buffalo clearly terrible, so Ravens were a pretty easy choice. Shoutout to the one guy who picked the Skins. Nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Figures. My success in going out early is unparralled. GL the rest of the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 According to the pick distribution info week one was a blood bath. 30.64% Saints and 9.15% picked the Steelers, so nearly 40% of yahoo survival league players faltered in week one. Another 11% are riding with the Lions tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite that totally sad and par for the course outcome by Cleveland, I wouldn't go anywhere near them, especially not with a team like NO, who historically plays defense like once every 3-4 years.

MikeSellers45 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Well, maybe I'll do better next year. I should've stuck with my original pick of GB rather than switching to the Saints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the immortal words of MSU Coach Duffy Dougherty after Ara Parseghian at ND played for a tie rather than a victory: "A tie is like kissing your sister." To me, ending up with a tie is lame, and I whenever a team does it, there seems to be some killer instinct, or championship drive missing. So I checked the records, and, coincidentally enough, the last team to have a tie in the regular season and go on to with the Super Bowl was the Pittsburgh Steelers, back in 1974.

Busch1724 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 If they had a kicker, they'd be 2-0 against two pretty good teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might be pretty damn decent a year from now, assuming Mayfield takes the reins in '19. Just take the '04 Roethlisberger/'12 Wilson/'01 Brady approach. They'll be a scrappy bunch this year though, and seeing how weak the AFC is, they'll ruin anybody that tries a "Pick against the Browns" approach. The Cards/Bills, though... My god, what futility. Cards have that 0-16 look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
