Ravens MB - Survival Pool

[PuRock]

Man if Pitt didn't win, 5 players would have gotten a strike.  

 

Went with the Jets.  Gave me a little worry in the 1st Qtr, but pulled through fairly easy.

Wow I was part of the 0.04% who picked the falcons correctly. Hoo-Ah

Why would you do that to yourself?  That's not just playing with fire, that's like singeing off your eyebrows for fun.

I like to live life dangerously.

How do strikes work - 2 strikes, out or we have two to use then out on third?

I've never done survivor on Yahoo but the settings say '2 Strikes and you're eliminated'.   Don't know if you can still make picks after that or not.  But you wouldn't be able to 'win' the game w/ two strikes.

Man... I can't join because the league already started... Well that's crap

My survival pick this week is without a doubt the Baltimore Ravens

[beanfigger]

Kind of stunk going with a Monday night game. Didn't know whether I could gloat over the misses until after the moment had passed.

I am guessing you went Detroit?

[beanfigger]

Yes, and the waiting for Monday night was far worse than waiting through a stressfully close matchup Sunday afternoon.

I can't believe stupid Tampa lost to freaking Derek Anderson at home. Can't believe I bought into that "Cam Newton IS our offense" BS. Dude's backup is better than him. 

At least I got a virtual lock in Miami over "thanks for trading your 1st to Cleveland" stinky Buffalo.

Um...

[Inqui]

I went Green Bay. I'm going to be iffy on them this year with their line issues, so I don't mind getting them out of the way early. But I really can't see them going 0-2 at home, especially against the Jests.

[Mt. Crushmore]

Picking against the Browns 2 weeks in a row turned out to be pretty stressful.  At least I'm still in.  Hawkprey, horus, and ravens__ are all out.

[Inqui]

This will be a stressful second half as the Packers try to bring it back. At least I'm not alone in my suffering.

[hawkprey]

Um...

Well then.

[allblackraven]

5 more minutes and my Tampa pick should work

[allblackraven]

Unbelievable

[ravensdan]

Wow. I only picked 4 games right this week. Luckily had Denver in this. 2-0

I'm in the same boat as you almost. I like to pick a lot of upsets when choosing the whole slate, but I'm usually pretty good at spotting the locks.

I didn't pick too many upsets just the wrong ones. Lol. I had the jets Vikings and titans not the chargers browns and bills. That's a big swing. With the eliminator. I always go for the most sure bet home team as long as possible. No reason to save teams.

[PuRock]

3 people eliminated, 9 survivors, and 4 survivors with perfect pick sets so far.  

 

At the rate we are going, we'll have this game finished in a month.

I'd be down for a new game after this finishes if there's time.

Haha, what an optimistic view. And from two people that got first two weeks right.

[PuRock]

That's what I'm thinking.  If the game ends before week 8, we'll start it up again with only 1 strike.

Didn't mean to come off like that.

[Inqui]

That's what I'm thinking.  If the game ends before week 8, we'll start it up again with only 1 strike.  

Would it be possible to start another one even if there are two or three people still alive by then?

[PuRock]

Ofcourse.  

 

So if for anyone of the three people already knocked out, keep checking back.

I can't believe Philly beat Indy IN indy
