Slugs3511 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Sorry Big john, I was simply saying that the Rams did not Suck....Maybe I should not have been more specific.....I am going with the Cowboys becasuse I do not see them being able to be used later, I could use the Bengals in week 16 at home against the Chiefs and San Diego next week against the Browns...... Any other opinions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any other opinions? Sluggo - are you really saying that the Rams do not suck??? If that's your take on it, let me know when the post-concussion syndrome clears up. But, then again, everyone is entitled to his own opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL Fan Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 (edited) I was going to go with cincy but now I may save them and go with Seattle @ st louis. Bulger is out and st. louis sucks to begin with. This one is dangerous. If St. Louis plays the way they did against NO, they will beat Seattle. They could go out and get pounded, as well, but I believe Boller is actually a mild upgrade to Bulger.

Double D Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I apologize for saying that the Rams suck. But they are not very good and are hurting even worse without their QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL Fan Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I apologize for saying that the Rams suck. But they are not very good and are hurting even worse without their QB. Oh, the Rams still most definitely suck, but as I said, they may be better off with Bulger out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slugs3511 Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Yeah, my head cleared up a bit, the only person on that team that scares me, and it could be 14-10 game, would be Steven Jax.....Look over the last two years how he finishes the season.....He is a beast! Even after being hurt and coming back, he continued to pile up the points in the last couple years at the end of the season.... Also, Seattle has not been playing well either....

Chief Dick Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 I think the safe pick this week is SD over the Chiefs. No way KC wins that game. No way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big F'n Dave Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Chiefs knocked me out this week. F'n Steelers! Went to the rail with Indy and NE in my pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosGatosEnFuegos Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Still going. Actually, 4 of 12 contestants are still hanging around in my pool. Surprised no one lost in this past week of upsets. Guy who took DAL flirted with it. Here's my track record. I had to make late Sunday or Monday night picks a couple times early in the season due to my drug history, I mean my bad memory. 1- NEP 2- IND 3- BAL 4- NYG 5- PHI 6- GBP 7- NYJ 8- CHI 9- JAC 10- ARI 11- MIN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABearWithFurniture Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Some things I've learned over the years is I never want to go up against a new QB in a survivor pool...not much game film and it changes the dynamics for the offense. Too much uncertainty as the opponent's defense will tend to base it's strategy on the old offense. That is why I wouldn't touch the Seattle-St. Louis game this week. The Seahawks should win but still, they just aren't that good, especially on the road (0-5 this year so far)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL Fan Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Chiefs knocked me out this week. F'n Steelers! Went to the rail with Indy and NE in my pocket. This is why my personal philosophy is that you never try to "save" a team for later. Take your best matchup every week and let next week handle itself. It's crazy to go down with Indy and NE still on your bench. For the record, I'm still in it this year, and in five pools over three years, i've won twice and finished second once.

Wasn't saving them at all. I took the best match-up for 10 weeks in a row. The best match-up in Week 11 was PIT-KC. Just didn't happen. But thanks for the sage advice.
