Green Bay, Kansas City, and Tampa Bay all look good.

Philly vs Dallas seems like a damn trap.

Tennessee over Cincinnati may be good too, but Burrow might throw for 500 yards on Tennessee’s defense

Tricky games. Going to do the prudent thing and go KC.

Ultimate trap game for Kansas City. Gase also has a double agent in Le’veon Bell to destroy KC from the inside. Jets win

I've got Green Bay, Kansas City, and Tampa Bay all available, and I think I'm going with TB too.

Used Tampa this past week. I still have KC and GB but wanting to hang on. I’m going with Philly over Dallas—third QB and ailing offensive line.

I could not play this past week due to website error. I picked the Dolphins over the Jets last week. The score was 24-0 Dolphins. Survivor said I lost on Miami last week.

I am still pissed off at this.

I have them all available as well. I was planning on TB, too. Giants, Dallas, Washington, and the Jets may not win again unless they play each other.

eta: Texans suck pretty bad as well. We can score lots of points, but never enough.

If KC loses at home, I deserve to be eliminated.

Also the next four weeks including their bye week look like matchups I'd want to avoid with KC

No, you picked Miami vs Denver, that's why you lost

trying not to overthink it and just pick kansas city. with just over 100 left, how many weeks do you think the winner will need to last? full season?

i just can't judge how much value there is in taking a risk like using philly this week and keeping some big guns available versus just taking the "sure thing." there aren't really any sure things in the nfl but the chiefs vs. jets is as close as you can possibly come.

then, like tzimme says, the chiefs aren't amazing picks the next 4 weeks, but they are still probably the best team to pick if you are in a bind. tough calls.

The Jets are gonna frick up a lot of people soon, I just don’t think it’s gonna be Kansas City.

I’m leaning towards just going with Tampa Bay on MNF.

KC can't afford to lose a AFC game. If they're going to drop one it'll be against an NFC team. Won't hurt tiebreakers

As long as the Steelers, Titans and Ravens are sitting with one loss, they won't overlook their AFC opponents

I got knocked out in week 12 last year. There were still 20ish (I think) survivors left going into week 13.

yeah damn, looks like we are on about that same pace this year (makes sense).

so you gotta last the whole year basically, which also makes sense. might be worth taking a risk...

This is a good point. This is the time of year a team like KC starts to get separation from the rest of their division, they start to coast, and are ripe for a big upset.

Except only one team in each conference gets a bye now. KC has their sights on the AFC #1 seed. They aren’t going to look past any team, even if it’s the Jets, especially since they are an AFC opponent.

It almost seemed too obvious but the Jets are a gift from the Survivor gods.

Welp Bengals took me out. Farthest I’ve ever gone though. Good luck to y’all.
