The GEM Presents: NFL Survivor Pick'em (2nd Ed.)

These are the (Second Edition) rules:
Each week, you pick a team to win. If that team wins, you advance to the next week. If that team loses, you're out. Only THREE POSTERS can pick the same team, so if everyone has Green Bay over Detroit this week, only the first three who respond Green Bay get Green Bay. The fourth poster has to pick a different team to win, otherwise your pick won't be counted.
Moving through the weeks, you CANNOT pick the same team twice. So you feel good about Dallas over Philadelphia this week? Well that's the LAST time you'll be able to pick Dallas until the season is over.
This is open to anyone who responds and picks a team within the first three selections. I'll run spreadsheets to keep up on this. Whoever the last survivor is will receive a prize, picked by me, and mailed to your home address.
I will edit with the weekly matchups each week, so if you've survived Sunday, check the OP and make your next pick. This is the second time around, starting in Week 7. If you don't pick a team prior to a week 7 kick-off, sorry, you won't be included in the second go-round.

I pick Baltimore! (1)
I shall fly by the seat of my pants here
Edit: It should be noted that I know nothing about the NFL because I don't like football.
I saw pickem and just reacted. Edited my post :P
Jets!(1)
Also they are playing the Raiders who have to be worse because seriously Oakland and pro sports don't mix.
Chiefs (1)
and then
Chiefs (2)
and then
Chiefs (3)
that would be super keen.
Let's see, I want a sure winner I don't mind not having available later on.
Put me down for the Steelers (1). Could be a landmine week. Jets/Patriots can be dangerous with Brady on the shelf, I want to save the Packers and Colts for later, I'm not sure what to think of Titans/Bengals.
Because my little sister's soccer team could beat Miami.
edit: put it in red so it's easier for cel
YOU FUCKIN SAW NOTHING
JETS JETS JETS JETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe favre will throw another 52 yard pass yayuhz
Or maybe he'll wing it to the other team 1.13 times
How about team colors
in bold
Watch -- it's funny how quick people get weeded out on upset and such, but damn it's fun if you survive.
I'm just going to comb through it all Friday or Saturday and put it in a sheet, so whatevs, really.
That's just what he does. He throws the goddamned ball no matter what.
New Orleans
they gotta be pretty pissed with like ... hurricanes and stuff
being angry makes people stronger, right? anime taught me this
Don't let me down you bastards.
let me start out with the Giants (1) cause why the fuck not.
(this is the only game they're gonna win all year gotta use them sometime right? hehe)
Although I'm tempted to just pick whoever's playing the Rams each week, until they hit a repeat.
I support the 49ers pick this week
Each year...such empty hope.
I have a little more confidence in the Raiders' ability to lose than the Chiefs'.
Giants (2)
