Lost another 13 last week with the Rams showing up to play!

I have already used
Chargers
Patriots
Eagles
Colts
Buffalo

I am leaning towards Green Bay at home this week, but don't want to rule out whoever is playing the Texans. So Cleveland at home might be another option.

Thoughts?

Something about the Packers and Raiders make me nervous. My 2c would be on the Rams.....distant second choice Steelers.

I'd probably go with Green Bay.

Cleveland worries me because of the downward spiral they appear to be in / headed for. Plus you really don't need to ever take a team as bad as the Browns. 17 weeks (if it goes that long, probably won't) and 32 teams; there should be almost no need to ever take a sub-.500 team unless you box yourself in and you're stuck later in the year.

Miami should win I think, even with a backup QB, but it's a bit riskier. Miami doesn't really have another soft opponent at home for a while. I don't like taking road teams in this sort of thing, but other than this week, I'd say you'd probably only use them in Week 10 @ NYJ (road game, ugh), Week 11 vs Balt or Week 14 vs Chi (doubt it goes that long).

I'm thinking of using St. Louis. They may have their confidence back after last week, the D played great as did Faulk. Green Bay is in a tough spot situationally; coming off the win on Monday Night over hated rival Bears, getting injuries to the D, traveling to NE to take on defending SB champs and then pummeling them in their backyard. Maybe a letdown here. As for Wash, they are probably the most unpredictable team out there. Who knows which team will show up. Cleveland? I can't trust them. An outright loss shouldn't be shocking.

Arizona - It's the only Favored Team [and home team] I am on this week.

I like my Dogs to possibly win too, but I didn't play the Money Lines so there is some doubt.

Arizona, though unpredictable sometimes, is coming off a bye week after a "momentum builder" win over Carolina.

Dallas, although they did just get a win over Carolina also, is still having many problems and they know that win was a miracle.

To be fair though, I must let you know that I have had 3 losing weeks in a row now. That could be good or bad I guess.


Good Luck!

My pool could get interesting as Browns and Raiders dominate the selections. I went with the Rams and with some help from the Texans and the Chargers could walk away with the $$$$!
