I thought this would be a fun game to play during this NFL season. For those unfamiliar, a NFL survival pool is when you pick just one team to win each week. If they win, you survive to week 2, but if they lose, you're out of the game. Also you can only pick each team once per season, making it more risky and more fun.
Here's the twist I want to put on it though: In this game, you'll pick a team to LOSE every week.
Each week, you'll pick one team that you think will lose their game that week. They lose, you stay in the game, they win, you're OUT! Also, anyone that picks a team who TIES their game can also stay and move on, since ties feel a lot like losses. You still can't pick that team again, though. Every week you'll take a different team in hopes they snatch defeat for your jaws of victory.
Other rules: Deadline to pick a team will always be the scheduled game time of that particular game. So at 1 PM Sunday, those games are locked in for whoever picks those games or not, same for the 4:05, 4:25, 8:30 games, etc. You CAN change your pick but only BEFORE the start of BOTH game. Also, please state clearly what team you're changing from and what pick you're changing to. Last one surviving wins!

Still time for anyone else out there to join. You technically still have until tomorrow night because you could pick a loser from the MNF game.
