RotB Pick'em Survival: Giant Killer

by Hawkwind on Oct 10, 2011 10:09 PM MDT

Sadly this isn't a tale from the Old Testament but an all too common trend in RotB Survival Leagues: pack mentality on picks tends to lead to a mass exodus of participants when the heavily picked team falters. This year, the Seattle Seahawks have played David in defeating the Goliath New York Giants, eliminating a dozen participants. The remaining nine (current) participants will find that their options with byes and fewer "obvious" picks will make life interesting, starting with Week 6. Best of luck!

I'm really hating the 49ers right now.

Is it Harbaugh? Is it that they have a talented team (didn’t they let go of a lot of talent this year in FA?)? are they getting lucky? What the hell is it. They certainly did not get lucky last week, they flat out demoralized the Bucs. What the hell happened this year?
