I looked all over the site to change the rule that one loss means you're done, but there doesn't seem to be a way. I did change the deadline for pick submission to Sunday at noon ET. This way, you're not screwed if you miss the lame Thursday games.

Thank you.

Sorry, been a busy week. I kept forgetting as I'd sit down to work. With the picks deadline extension, we should hopefully get a few more people to join.

There’s still time to join. The deadline to make the first pick isn’t until noon eastern tomorrow.

I joined yesterday.

I'm in. Should be fun.

Always wanted to try one of these. I know some of these you can only pick a team one time. Was gonna pick one of the prime team games to maybe give me a rooting interest, but thought I might want to use one of those teams in the future. Instead I picked a team that I knew I wouldn't want to choose again.

Varmint...

Having done these for awhile, my advice is Just Win Baby. In my experience, saving teams for for future weeks is a losing bet. That said, future value is a fine tie-breaker if you really like 2 teams in a given week.

j/c:

Not sure if anyone is interested, but NFL.com has a ton of "Public" Survivor leagues. I am in about 10 of them. It's cool, because some of the leagues have either double or even triple elimination. There are also many that are single elimination.

Good first week.

How in the world does the power rankings on this site have us at 30 with Detroit above us, and moving DOWN a spot after we tied Pitt?

well, that was fun! ha

I saw that too, but whatever, we should have won and it's after week 1. Win a few and you move up. Lose or tie and you move down. Not worried about power rankings in the NFL.

Damn....

What amazes me is that 6 out of the 9 that won chose Baltimore.

Everyone that made a selection advanced.

I almost lost with my New Orleans pick, which I would have been fine losing, but something told me we were going to lose again, and we did. Crap.

Minnesota's implosion cost five deaths this week, including me. Ouch.

Congrats Varmint Kong

varmint with the BIG W

That was fun. I think it would have been more fun if you could choose up to 3 games a week or if it would have penalized you for taking games that were a higher victory percentage. Good time though.
