I seriously think a lot of people that lost in survivor either don't know the rules or made a mistake.

a good number of people that lost ,so far , either picked Cleveland or the titans . I guess I can understand picking the titans because the opponent was so terrible , but what logic can be used to explain people picking the browns in week one of survivor.

even picking the titans, obviously the opponent is trash but there were waaaay safer picks out there.

I’m seeing a lot of people who picked the saints. Why would anyone pick a matchup that is that even? And yeah, I just saw a lot of people picked Tennessee. Crazy

Should honestly do a death pool.

Your goal is to pick a losing team every week.

Anybody that picked Cleveland or Tennessee deserved to lose. I stayed away from both of those games because all of those teams are garbage. There's no telling who would win.

ETA: I forgot Cleveland played Jax. I thought they played Miami for some reason. Jax isn't garbage and anybody that picked Cleveland may be slightly retarded.

The Jets are a better team than the Titans so picking Tennessee was just stupid

I picked the titans to go ahead and get them off the board... But originally had Detroit until I saw the defensive injuries. So two bad decisions.

But to my defense... Me forgetting to submit kills me a lot of years

I think that’s overthinking it.

I say as I just bowed out with the Chargers.

It's people who misunderstand probability. They're trying to save the "safe" picks for later instead of playing the surer thing to make sure you stay alive.

Not only that, they do not need to play the crap teams. You can play the top 10 teams and honestly have a chance in most pools. You never need more than 18, so why use a bottom tier team ever?
