Good deal! It looks like about 5 people haven't made their picks, but they have until Sunday to get them in.

I made my pick and I look to be the sleeper for this season of Survivor..... Who wants to know who I picked?

The Browns? That's who I picked for week 1. I hope they get a wild card spot this year, but I dont' think they will be able to beat the Steelers for the division.

I picked the Browns too.

Same here... I don't see them making the playoffs with Pittsburgh & Baltimore in that division, but they should handle Cincinnati at home Sunday. Hoping anyway...

A good pick, IMO. I'm actually saving the Texans for a rainy day, an inconceivable strategy in years past.

(pardon the pun, rain is a thing of the past)

Weird analogy but I'm doing the same thing. Both the Carolina & Cincinnati game look like a safer bet & are later in the year.

Really? "Save it for a rainy day?" (in this case a rainy day being 2 strikes and no teams left playing a lesser opponent) Hmmm. I'm getting old.

Ok, I guess I plan on Houston winning when I pick them. It can't be a 'rainy day' if they win, right?

Always great if they win. I'd take 3 strikes right now in exchange for Houston getting to a 3-0 start.

I like the save the best teams as long as possible as we all do and this year for the first time Houston is one of those teams I don't want to use too early in the season.

Yeah, no kidding. Saving Pittsburgh for week 16 was the best decision I made in survivor last year. They won while everyone else still alive in the league ended up with a strike that week.

[JCTexan]

Cincinnati & Buffalo winning just got 20 of us strikes. For the 2nd year in a row I start the survivor league with a strike.

[Dutchrudder]

Well, strike 1.... Thanks a lot Browns...

[LikeMike]

That`s why I picked the only sure thing: the Texans ;-).

On another note: I feel stupid for not starting Steve Smith (Car) in my fantasy league...

It wasn't trusting the Chiefs or Browns more. It was wanting to save the Texans for later. They still have the Panthers, Bengals, Browns & Raiders on the schedule.

[Showtime100]

Maybe I should have used the Niners this week.

*goes to look at Seattle's schedule for the season*

Yeah, but those teams were playing teams more or less on there level... not worth the risk to save the Texans in the best week to pick them... There are far more teams to choose and save for later.... Especially in week 1 when there is a huge unknown on how good teams like those will be.. ie the Bills
