I'm one of six teams left in a Survivor Pool, and felt cornered into taking the Jets today, especially as a pot odds play. My only other teams left are GB and AZ. Many of the others have the likes of IND, NO, NE and DAL still left. I'm going to need two wins to win this thing.

So imagine my disappointment in seeing this week's picks: three teams taking the Jets (all three that had them left), one taking GB, one NE, and one PHI.

Dammit. At least we did a set aside for each of us. I would have much rather taken a different team, root for my Bengals, than taking the Jets along with two others. For my situation, there's a pretty high premium on being different.
