Laffin’s NFL Survivior/Suicide Pool Picks: Week 5

CBS Survivor LogoSo its that time again.  Gonna make sure this pick is up early to make up for the last one going up after the games had already started.

So I’ll just drop a quick review of my previous picks then get right into this week.

Week 1: Seattle Seahawks over the Saint Louis Rams.  Seatle 28, Saint Lous 0.

Week 2: Washington Redskins over the Saint Louis Rams. Washington 9, Saint Louis 7.

Week 3: Philadelphia Eagles over the Kansas City Chiefs. Philadelphia 34, Kansas City 14.

Week 4: Chicago Bears over the Detroit Lions. Chicago 48, Detroit 24.

Week 5: Dallas Cowboys over the Kansas City Chiefs.

I went with Dallas because they do not seem like they are going to be a team that you can consider a “sure thing” down the stretch.  They have a history of slipping towards the end of a season, and this season in particular, they have not even had a game where they have looked good.  I am picking them because they are coming off a tough loss to the Broncos, they are playing a sub-par team in the Chiefs, and I really don’t think I’ll be able to confidently pick them later in the season.

I also have money on the Colts (-4) against the Titans this week, and the Falcons (+3) against the 49′ers.

    This laffin person sucks at picking winners . First of all he picks teams that are winless so it makes him look like he’s right all the time. Laffin pick a tougher matchup, that’s how u earn credibility. This week I would have picked the broncos over the pats by a fg. That’s a reasonable matchup. Comon man this is a joke if u pick teams that are winnless. I’m sure next week u will pick a team ova the bucks, st louis, or the chiefs

    Sincerely

    Fletch

    Yeah, this isn’t a post where I pick tough teams, or try to pick every game. The POINT of a survivor league and a suicide league is to stay alive as long as possible, and my strategy for winning this money that I have on this league is to pick teams that are mediocre and playing against bad teams, and save the good teams like Indy, Minnesota, Baltimore, etc. for the end.

    Sorry but I never claimed to be a football psychic or make ballsy picks, this post is to assist people in trying to win suicide/survivor leagues, not to try and become a person who people look to as a football seer. I apologize if that’s what you thought this post was. If you are looking for that, try another blog, or watch the “experts” on ESPN.

    And yes, depending on who they are playing, I probably will take a team who is playing Detroit, St Louis, Oakland, or Kansas City. I am trying to win money, and I don’t get a higher payout for making miracle picks.

    With Much Love, Thank You for the Readership
