Home teams overwhelmingly get the most support in NFL survivor pool picks, but you may make an exception with your Week 6 NFL knockout pool picks. The Texans are 6.5-point road favorites versus the Patriots on Sunday, and this isn't the only game with a large spread that favors the visitors. The Falcons are 5.5-point road favorites in Carolina to give you another option to consider for Week 6 NFL eliminator picks. Of course, you could also consider the big home favorites like Eagles vs. Browns (+9.5, 42.5) or Packers vs. Cardinals (+5.5, 47.5) if you haven't yet used Philadelphia or Green Bay.

Before you make your Week 6 NFL survivor pool picks or NFL knockout pool picks, you NEED to see which team the SportsLine Projection Model is backing.

The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up well over $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters Week 6 of the 2024 NFL season on an incredible 10-2 hot streak on top-rated NFL picks this year. Longer term, it is on a 191-131 roll on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season and a 45-23 roll on top-rated NFL picks since Week 7 of 2022.

The model also ranked in the top 10 on NFLPickWatch four of the past six years on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 94% of CBS Sports Football Pick'em players four times during that span. Anyone who has followed it is WAY UP!

The model can be used to crush the Survivor Pool format, which calls for picking one team to win each week but never using the same team twice.

In Week 6 of the 2024 NFL season, we can tell you the model is shying away from the Eagles (-9.5, 42.5) versus the Browns, even though Philadelphia is the biggest favorite of the week. The Eagles have been inconsistent, alternating wins and losses this season, with concerning signs on both sides of the ball. The team averaged 27.5 points over its first two games before putting up just 15.5 points over the last two games. Additionally, Philly allowed a season-high of 33 points in its last contest, while Cleveland does bring the league's No. 1 redzone offense into this contest. While the Eagles are projected to win in well over 60% of simulations, the model is saving Philadelphia for another week.

Instead, the model is backing a SURPRISING team that wins outright in well over 60% of simulations! Picking this team will put you in the optimal position to win your NFL survivor pool. You NEED to see which team the model is backing before locking in your NFL survivor picks!
