I am in a large survivor pool that annually begins in week 2.
Right now I am leaning on Washington to defeat St. Louis.
Here is an interesting trend, there have been 28 team shut out in week 1. The two teams in 2003 that played in week 2 played against each other (NE/PHI), as such I threw out their game.
Therefore, since 1978, 26 that were shut out in week 1 were:
5-20-1 SU, 10-16 ATS. On the road they were 2-11 SU; 5-8 ATS
Now, I am working on a query based on midwest teams that played on the west coast and then went to east coast to play their next game.
The last time I tried this unique type of capping for the year in the Survivor pool, I made it to week 14 of 2002. I was about one of 40 people remaining out of 800+ people vying for a pool of about 150K. I took Pittsburgh over Houston. Tommy Maddux pissed his pants that day! Pittsburgh outgained Houston by almost 400 yards and had 21 more 1st downs. But Maddux had two interceptions and a fumble returned for a touchdown!
Then again, if that was bad, I was still alive last year when I was in Vegas. I took Philadephia. Too be on the safe side, I played Cincinnati on the ML. Needless to say, I pushed the money line and lost my survivor pick!
