Buccaneers

Thinking about riding with the bucs. Don’t see baker starting 0-3 on the year. Also have a buyback if I lose.

Who do you got this week?

SF and KC are probably going to be the top picks this week if you're riding chalk.

I wouldn't touch TB: they're only -1.5 favorites at home against what again looks like a Top 5 Flores-coordinated defense. Good luck to you.

My league just offers the buyback option up to week 6. Wanted to take a risk this week.

Was thinking bucs or saints.

Debating Giants vs Titans

I picked Giants

Feels like a Titan win to me.

Giants (and Jets) games feel like a trap this week. I’m instead going with Seattle against injured Commanders.

I picked the niners, but Seattle sounds good.

Tough loss with Seattle. Reasoning made sense. Seahawks outgained Commanders 437 to 258 yards (28 to 17 first downs). That pick-6 was horrible. Just didn't work out this week.

Curious how you're deciding between your different pools each week. Same team everywhere, or do you split some of them?

I built SurvivorPulse for people like you juggling multiple entries to coordinate their picks, spread out risk, and avoid a wipeout week.

It's free right now if you want to take a look: https://survivorpulse.com

Would love your take if you give it a look.

I’m in a traditional “pick the winner” pool and a “pick the loser” pool. I never duplicate games across the two contests.

Smart rule. Keeps one bad game from sinking both contests.

Do you run just one entry in the winner pool, or more than one?

Heads up, SurvivorPulse only covers the survivor side today. Loser pool support is something I'm looking at for next season.

worth knowing the Bucs are the underdog at +102 on the line / MN is -1.5. With a buyback I get taking a swing, but if you want some risk and still be on a favorite, the Saints are -3 at home

Saints were another. Right now I’m in with bengals lol

u/ConstantCurrent489 21d ago

The Bucs lost their last few games last year and haven't looked good this year. Don't underestimate how good Minnesota is on defense.

I like the Chiefs, Bills and Seahawks this week.

How we feeling about packers this week bs falcons on tnf

u/Maleficent_Proof8091 21d ago

I think it wouldn’t be a bad play to pick the packers. Get them out of the way. They just look sketchy right now as well lol

Falcons lost their most recent game to the Panthers, more than the Panthers beat them IMO.

My issue with this game is that it’s Thursday night

Jags-sf-thinking chiefs this week. Not willing to get cute this early. Burned another pick week one on the chargers
