    Suicide Pool Help

    Guys appreciated the help last week, Jaguars was scary but they got me through another week and we are down to 3 people, 1 dude is going to be on San Diego definitely...

    here are my options though

    Dallas vs washington
    Miami vs Buffalo
    Carolina vs Arizona
    Oakland vs Denver
    Chicago at Minnesota

    These matchups aren't great but they aren't as brutal as last weeks. My early lean is the Raiders but im not 100% confident about any of the games, some feedback would be great again, top notch analysis last week:thumbs:

    Side-note: How big of a deusch bag is the one guy in our pool, we were going to chop 40% and play for the other 60%. 2 of us agreed to it and the other guy decided he wanted to be greedy, we were in the same spot last year and we had great teams lined up for the last 2 weeks when it was down to two teams and we chopped, now we are in the same predicament and this guy doesn't want to chop...Is it just me or is that dude a total tool?

    Philly Fan,

    I am in a similar situation as you are. I am 1 of 4 left in mine. I am not crazy about the games this week but here's what I got. Most confident in:

    Oakland
    Dallas
    Miami
    Carolina
    Chicago

    Right now I am leaning Oak because they have been playing pretty well of late and Denver is a mess right now, also they are playing their 3rd straight road game.

    I probably am staying away from Car because I don't want to get knocked out on a team who has won 1 game all season. Also don't trust Jay Cutler on the road and I never play road teams in my pool.

    Good luck this week.

              denver possibly starting tebow, minny starting webb and wash is definitely starting rex grossman. whichever way you go, you cant go wrong

                Again this won't be a popular one (like when I said Bills last week), but the Panthers are the play. Perfect situation to play on them to beat the Cards, who are starting a rookie qb on the road off a home win.....

                  Dallas vs Washington
                  Two teams going in different directions. McNabb benched and Grossman the starter. I never like games where the Starter is benched, because your gut is that Wash won't be as good, but in reality the Coach is benching for a reason. Washington has been surprisingly good on the road. Dallas lost first game of back to back home games, decent teams don't lose back to back at home.

                  Miami vs Buffalo
                  Buffalo has been in road games, but only won one and that was against the pathetic Bengals. On the flip side Miami has been really questionable at home. This is a good no play game.

                  Carolina vs Arizona
                  Arizona is on the road 1:00 and technically the WC to EC, I think, like last week. Arz has sucked on the road 1-6 with only win week 1. Carolina has lost 7 straight and only win was against a WC to EC at 1:00, I belive and the same situation again. Most teams do not lose more than 7 straight. There are a lot of pointers pointing to Carolina.

                  Oakland vs Denver
                  This is the 3rd of three straight road games for Denver and that has to be hard especially considering the fact that they lost 2 straight. I think a new coach and a new qb are not the best combination. Oakland has been very good at home with only one loss and they are coming off a loss.

                  Chicago at Minnesota
                  Joe Webb is starting at QB. Minnesota's defense is falling apart, the QB situation is falling apart and the stadium is too. Chicago's defense has been playing great. Chicago's Cutler has been outstanding recently. Weather is a factor.

                  My Opinion, in this order:
                  1. Dallas over Washington
                  2. Oakland over Denver
                  3. Chicago over Minnesota
                  4. Carolina over Arizona (but it is hard to put your money on a 1-12 team)
                  Stay away from: Miami over Buffalo

                  I honestly think you'd be okay with any of 1,2,3 and probably 4. I would be scared of putting all the marbles on Miami in this game.

                  Good Luck with your choice.

                      if the benching of mcnabb, and about the players speaking up and are pissed off about it, than i say dallas is a great play this week... dallas is playing for their jobs and playing good football right now, played philly pretty tough, washington is alot like denver a complete mess, but teebow is a competitor and i feel the safe lay is on the cowgirls... good luck to you... post what u chose:thumbs:

                        What in the hell did you play?

                        As long as it wasn't Miami it seems as though you won. Unless you played chicago/minnesota.
