    In week 5…
    Could you please explain your logic of picking NYJ as a 14 in low risk picks. Then not picking them at all in your med risk picks, and finally picking them at 14 in your high risk picks. Logic would be that in your low risk you would of picked MIN, in your med risk you would have NYJ at like 8 or 9. And finally in your high risk you would have NYJ at a high risk at 14. Please help me understand how you pick and assign values.

    Thanks,
    Carl

    Yes, if you pick a huge upset then yes you will be in the money. But, it would be helpful if you had some logic with your pick. Other than stats.

    You have NYJ in the some risk column with 14 points, but picked MIN in both the med risk and high risk. Can you please explain your logic? I would think putting 14 points on an upset would be considered a high risk move.

    You had 16 points on New England in your confidence pool. Why did you even consider CIN in your survivor pool?

    Best,

    Good Morning,

    NEP beat the CIN. Which is awesome that you picked it in your confidence post, but you should have updated your survival pool as well. I did lower my confidence based on your past picking to 8 points giving me 2nd place and a chance to win my pool. Great picking. However, maybe you should consider not picking CIN in the survivor if you put 16 on the opposing team in your confidence section. Thoughts?

    Best,
    Carl

    And you made your survivor pick CIN. So your logic doesn’t make any sense.

    “Much like the Bills, the Bengals will also be at home in Week 1 against one of the league’s least-efficient offenses from a season ago. Did the Patriots do anything to improve their offense during the offseason? Not really. While the team did add Drake Maye through the draft, he has looked like arguably the least promising quarterback prospect of any that were drafted in the first-round this year. Furthermore, their defense lost one of their best players from a season ago, Matt Judon.

    The Bengals may be without Ja’Marr Chase this week as he and the team discuss a potential contract extension. So long as Joe Burrow is healthy though, this Cincinnati offense should be capable of scoring more points than the lowly Patriots.”

    Also giving them such a high confidence value of 16. I am in a pool like most other players that as an end of year reward for the player who finishes first for the season. If I follow your strategy I would be starting out at the bottom of the pack. Don’t you think if you going to pick a huge upset you should go low with a 1,2,3 values?

    I mean no one in the world of the NFL believes that New England is going to pull out a win. I just want to know why you made that pick.

    Can you please provide what your reasoning is for picking teams like NEP over Cin? And what are the column labels mean such as No Conf mean. Meaning you have no confidence in those picks?

    Thanks,
