Saints nearly took a ton more people down with them again.

 

Telling y'all, the Browns are tricky.

 

Me included.  I thought last week was a mirage with those Pit turnovers and that the Saints after losing to TB would rock out.   Whoops.   A narrow escape.  I'm done underestimating them

So I assume everyone is picking the Vikings this week...

Yep.

I already picked them Wk 1. God help the internet though if #8 throws up some Peking ducks and they lose a tight one. Nearly 70%

The amount of people picking them, myself included, makes me nervous.  Tempting fate.

Like a dark humored ghost pirate pointing you to a chest of rubies, and all you have to do is walk across an innocent looking wooden bridge, high above a bottomless chasm...

Disturbingly specific.

The bridge, the pirate ghost, the chasm and chest of rubies are all symbolic of various personal  soul crushing sports moments, and also moments tepid optimism  .

 

For Harry potter, it was the creepy Riddle house. For Kingpin it was the blank white canvas. For Deion Sanders it was his mom pushing a cart.

 

For me, it's that bridge. ?

I went a different direction.  Not wildly off the beaten path though.

[Mr. Sinister]

Kinda feel like I should've gone for it tonight. Tough scrappy Browns on TNF  (always a sketchy one), at home against a Rookie qb on his second straight short week. If it wasn't for the fact that their injury reported suggested they could potentially be down 3 defensive starters this past Tuesday, I'd have taken them to the bank.

[Mr. Sinister]

Damn.... Missed opportunity.

I knew it. Like burning a Ouija board.

[Destino]

I knew it and it did it anyway.  lol 

[Renegade7]

I imagine most if not all of you done now, insane. 

[Corcaigh]

LOL. I had a thought yesterday to pick someone other than the Vikings, because if they won, everyone would be still in it and nothing much gained, where as if I picked someon else the upside was much greater if the Vikings lost. But I didn't get to it.

[dfitzo53]

That's the way I looked at it Corcaigh.  My Philly pick was a nail-biter to the end, but it paid off.

[Bliz]

I picked the vikes days ago but yahoo says I had no pick.  Weird.  Oh well, same difference.

 

Bloodbath

 

 

[Mr. Sinister]

Lol, my instincts have suited me well. When I switched off of GB/WAS (that one started to smell funny), my next one was CHI/AZ, then I switched from that (I mean the Cards couldn't suck forever).

Thought I missed my chance honestly, with The Browns winning Thursday.

[China]

Cousins earning every dollar.  Oh well.

My alternative pick was Jacksonville, so no difference.

[skinfan2k]

first time ever my survivor pay pool ends in week 3.  I'm restarting in week 5 so hopefully i can get one more in for this season

[Busch1724]

It felt like a trap game. Was gonna switch to K.C. and now wish I did. 

[PleaseBlitz]

Meh, it was the biggest upset in like 2 decades.  My backup was going to be Packers over DC, so whatevs.
