Week 3 Survivor Discussion

[Forza_Azzurri]

I’m riding the anti-Bills bandwagon for at least two more weeks.

If I didn't have the Vikings left, I would lean:

Chiefs, at home, vs 49ers. Mahomes has that offense clicking so they should win the home non conference games.
Patriots - when is the last time they lost two in a row? except they are on the road....
Eagles at home vs Colts.

Good luck! Especially if you don't have the Vikings to use this week.

I’m nervous about Vikings. They are clearly looking ahead to the Rams on Thursday, evidenced by letting cook and griffin sit out this game. If this was a divisional game, I doubt they keep those guys out. Vikings overlooking the bills and worried this could be a trap game. I don’t think bills will win but wouldnt be stunned either if they did.

Bills won't win because they are in a massive rebuild, are not healthy themselves, and Minnesotas defense is good at home. I do admit taking them -17 was a dumb bet, but I was thinking something like 31-10 or 34-7 to be honest. Now, I am not so sure. No way Buffalo wins. Trap game, overconfident, fluke, the infamous blame-it-on-the-refs, nothing. Though I see where that mindset can come from, i do. Just not happening in a home game.

I am amazed that nobody is looking ahead. I typically agree that looking ahead is a recipe for disaster early in the year, but there are some very good options aside from Minny and being able to kick back with your feet up Week 6 is too enticing.

I mean if Mariota is out, how can anyone expect that team to go into Jax and win against that defense? I will probably take Minny with one and Jax with my other.

I also like KC who has to be confident going back home after a huge road win.

Saving is only a terrible idea when you are reaching to save, but there are enough other good options this week. The Eagles should be fine also, but with them being banged up at RB I will wait on them even though this is probably the easiest game on their remaining schedule. Wentz, Agholor, Ertz, and the defense should be enough to win.

EDIT...looks like Rapaport is reporting Mariota will not start an will back up for Gabbert. Good enough for me to roll with the Jags!!!

How is nobody taking the Bears?

[TB3falcons]

Because Vikings-Bills... Personally, I don't the Bears offense with Trubisky at the helm

[flyersfan1981]

I guess a lot of people are crapping their pants about now...

[TB3falcons]

Holy hell, the football gods are continuing the chaos from yesterday. Anyone expect the Bills to be up 24-0 after 1 Qtr???

well, this marks the first time in about 10 years I'm out in all my survivor leagues by week 3 lol.

Weeks 1 and this one were a slaughter in all my leagues. Over 90% of a 250+ people league I'm in went Vikings or Jax today, including yours truly. : )

GL to all survivors!

This is great. I read every single post with the knowledge of how angry every single one of you (except one) is feeling right now. Mad props to the guy who called the Vikings/Bills a trap game.
