77 eliminated so far after the 1 pm games.
Very few picks riding on the six games left to be played at 4 pm, Sunday night, or Monday night.
As few as 1 or as many as 10 could be eliminated in those games, so somewhere between 78 and 87 were eliminated this week.
And another 11 of the 262 Week 3 survivors dropped out by not making picks this week.
So between 89 and 98 Week 3 survivors wonāt survive Week 4, leaving somewhere between 164 and 173 of the original 617. More than 70% attrition in 4 weeks. I didnāt expect that!
Iāve survived the past two weeks by field goals passing, or BOUNCING, over the goal post as time expires. So if you want to risk cardiac arrest each week, see who I pick and follow my lead. Otherwise, there are a lot of better football minds here than me!

Dallas easy win and survive.
I have to make a difficult choice week 5
Iāve used
49ers, Bills, Ravens, and Cowboys.
Steelers, Bucs, Patriots, or Cardinalsā¦ hmmm
Trying to save Rams for week 7 Iāll be at that game watching my Lions get pounded by the Rams. My consolation is that Iāll win with a survivor pick of Rams week 7.
But then weeks 5 and 6 have some fairly difficult matchups at the meat of the season and some of my teams dwindling down.
Week 6 is like this: Ramsā¦ but then I canāt use them again. Shit. The Chiefs on the road in Washington looks like it might be the other option. Havenāt used them yet.
Agreed, next two weeks will be interesting. Week five only has 2 games of more than a TD right now
Falcons for me, wonāt find a better opportunity to knock them off the list. Lightning doesnāt strike twice for the jets.

Wow. And the Falcons might not find a better opportunity to knock you off the list! There are 32 teams and only 18 required picks in this contest. I wish you well, but Iām not seeing any reason to pick the Falcons this season. Ever.

Conveniently forgot that this game was in London so definitely changing my pick lol. That being said, thereās absolutely merit in choosing a worse off team to stack the odds on SB favorites til the end no? Letās say theoretically I make it to week 8~, and I have Bills, Packers, Chiefs, Rams, Cardinals, Raiders, Buccs left, then I can just cherry pick the highest favorite every week from there on out.

What were your first 4 just out of curiosity? I assume given your username youāre purely statistical with your picks? I went Panthers Patriots Zona Bengals and frankly feel like Iām in a more than decent spot now looking ahead at the schedule.

Youāre thought process is exactly where it should be. Keep picking the way you are and youāll be in better shape than most. With that said itās the NFL and we saw yesterday 7 point + teams beaten at home. Thereās no such thing as a lock in the NFL.

My first four were 49ers, Browns, Ravens, and Bengals.
Or to be more accurate, my first four picks were Lions, Texans, Lions, and Jaguars. Iām not sure I want to keep picking the Lions to lose, though. Theyāre scaring me too often! They seem to be an upset waiting to happen; just a matter of time.
Iām only alive because the Ravens bounced a field goal across the crossbar as time expired to pull out a victory over the Lions. Thatās way too close for comfort, but shyte happens.
No one is going to win this solely on skill, thatās for sure. Ask the 16 people who somehow failed to predict that the Packers would get slaughtered by the Saints 38-3 week one, falling short of covering the spread by 39 points! Yeah, saw that comināā¦ 
On any given Sundayā¦

Anyone wants to pick Vikings this week?

No thanks. That means betting on the Lions to lose again. Iāve already done that 2 out of 4 weeks, and after it took an NFL record 66-yard field goal bouncing over the crossbar to keep me in this contest, Iām not sure I want to go for the hat trick! There are other losers left to bet against.

Obvious pick is Tampa but coming off that kind if emotional game vs a team who got embarrassed last week i could see Miami getting out early on the Bucs
Was wondering the same. Is there a list somewhere?
