Especially if week one is any indication

I dislike picking games between division rivals, especially to start the season

I hate picking road teams

I dislike taking teams that a very weak on one side of the ball, especially on offense, 1 mistake could become too hard to overcome

I'm not sure there are any no win candidates this year

2016 was an easy year, many contests were not decided after 18 weeks, including the two I participated in on this forum. You can thank the Browns, 49er's, Bears & Jaqs. 9 wins between them

2017 was a different story, some contests were over in 10 weeks or less. 2017 was the year of the 2nd chance survivor pool. Only one team won fewer that 5 games, the winless Browns.

2018 will be closer to 2017 than 2016, maybe harder since even the Browns will win some games this year.

Why do people think the Browns will do anything after blowing the draft—- period.
Could of had Saquan and a QB,
Handling the QB situation like Mike Glennon and The Bears last year makes no sense..

I think Cleveland, and most of those other "bad" teams, will win 5 games. That's enough wins to fuck up survivor contests, they'll all pull of an upset

It's those 0,1,2 and even 3 win teams that people can fade every week that extend these contests. Especially when you have four bad ass teams, they'll always be somebody you can fade when the pickings get otherwise thin
