NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 2) - Targets and Avoids

Mayhem in Week 1. About 60 percent of many survivor pools were eliminated thanks to losses by the 49ers, Bengals, Titans, Broncos and a tie from the Colts. Imagine the damage if the Saints didn't score 17 points in the final 11 minutes including a 51-yard field goal with 19 seconds left. This carnage isn't […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks - Week 1 Targets and Avoids for Survivor Leagues

Survivor is one of the oldest yet simplest pools in football. Its popularity has been overtaken by fantasy football , but that has more than a dozen variables needed to win. Picking an NFL team to win each week, and not being able to take them again -- can't get any easier. You don't need […]

Super Bowl LVI Betting Picks - NFL Prop Bets

The biggest game of the football season is upon us. While the buildup and game are usually exciting, it's also a melancholy game. We're all excited to watch the game, but as each second passes, the closer we are to not watching a meaningful football game for seven months. That's why you need to make […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 18) - Targets and Avoids

Welcome back RotoBallers to another edition of our Survivor Pool Picks article. So far 11 playoff spots are already locked up heading into Week 18, and seven teams are vying for the final three. All the big favorites took care of business last week, but the Jets were awfully close to beating the Bucs. How […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 17) - Targets and Avoids

What usually is the season finale is now the penultimate week of the regular season. 24 out of 32 teams are still in playoff contention. Just eight teams have officially been eliminated. This is why the NFL is the best. The major upset of Week 16 was the Texans beating down on the Chargers. The […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 16) - Targets and Avoids

The NFL seems like a short season with only 17 regular season games played, but then you look back at Week 8 and realize the Chiefs lost 27-3 to the Titans, it feels like eons ago. After that loss, I wrote,  "If there's ever been a better buy-low chance on any team, it's Kansas City […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 15) - Targets and Avoids

It's wide open with four games left in the regular season. Five teams in the AFC and the NFC are within one game of the top seed. Only three teams in the AFC have been eliminated from playoff contention, one team in the NFC, but we can go ahead and cross off the Giants and […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 14) - Targets and Avoids

The genius of Bill Belichick. Everyone needs to stop with that. We know how great of a coach he is, but they did absolutely nothing to win that game offensively. Yeah, they broke a touchdown run in the first quarter, but other than that, it was their defense. The Bills could not convert anything in […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 13) - Survivor League Targets and Avoids

Before putting money on a game, check who the referees are. If Shawn Hochul is the head ref, I will not touch it anymore. What he and his crew did during the Raiders-Cowboys Thanksgiving bout was nothing short of egregious. 28 combined penalties for 276 yards including the final pass interference that put the Raiders […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 12) - Survivor League Targets and Avoids

Thanksgiving Week is arguably the greatest sports week of the year. We have NFL, college football rivalry week, college basketball games on all day, and NHL and NBA but who really cares about the latter two this early on. But what I continually here this time of year, is get the Lions off Thanksgiving Day. […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 11) - Targets and Avoids

The Kansas City Chiefs are back. I wrote in my Week 8 column, there would not be a better chance to buy low on the Chiefs. It was after their 27-3 drubbing by the Titans. Since then, they've won three straight. It's been ugly; they barely beat the Giants, eked by a Packers team without […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 10) - Targets and Avoids

Favorites were winning an unprecedented clip. It was bound to happen. NFL doomsday. It’s the one week where favorites go down. Some didn’t just go down, but rather got knocked out. The biggest shock was Buffalo losing in Jacksonville. Other surprises included the Cowboys getting rolled by the Broncos and Rams dominated by the Titans. […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 9) - Targets and Avoids

Football. The game doesn't add up. Sometimes all stats point to one team dominating but just the opposite happens. That transpired with  the Bengals Sunday, but the game that really made no sense was the Titans-Colts. Indy jumped out to a quick 14-0 lead before the Titans crawled back and then it was back-and-forth. Now […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 8) - Targets and Avoids

If there's ever been a better buy-low chance on any team, it's Kansas City this week. They looked so bad Sunday against Tennessee. Patrick Mahomes got knocked around, the offense even failing to score a touchdown. Their odds to win the Super Bowl are 9-1, and the AFC Championship is +450. All week we're going […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 7) - Targets and Avoids

We are now a third of the way through the football season and it seems that we already have some of the division winners. In the AFC, the Bills, Ravens, and Titans all seem to be in control. In the NFC, the Cowboys, Packers, and Bucs have at least a two-game lead. The only two […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 6) - Targets and Avoids

By the growing weeks, football is becoming more like a video game. The deep passing attacks, defenses having such trouble to get a stop, and coaches going for it more and more often on fourth down. Chargers head coach Brandon Staley went for it with 10:34 to go in the third quarter. It was a […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 5) - Targets and Avoids

You can't get a third down stop or fourth down stop without seeing some yellow laundry. It's an epidemic. I wrote about this last week and usually don't like to have the same lead two weeks in a row, but it's out of control. The referees don't stop calling holding and pass interference penalties. When […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 4) - Targets and Avoids

As good as football has been this young season, the game is also laughable. The league wants these referees to call these ticky-tacky penalties. On the winning touchdown drive for the Chargers, they had a 4th-and-9 from the Chiefs 35 when Justin Herbert's pass was incomplete. But of course, a pass interference was called. It […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 3) - Targets and Avoids

The games get better and more dramatic by the week. It's like the NFL scripts these games. There were three games Sunday that were blowouts all the way through, not counting the Bucs which used two pick-sixes to not only cover the spread, but knock out Falcons teasers (that one really hurt). I won't go […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 2) - Targets and Avoids

It's time to overreact. Aaron Rodgers should've stayed retired, the Falcons are going to be one of the five worst teams, the Vikings have no hope, and the Rams are still going to the Super Bowl. There are some justified reactions like the Jets are the same ol' Jets, Daniel Jones is not an NFL […]

NFL Survivor Pool Picks (Week 1) - Targets and Avoids

It's one of the oldest pools out there. It used to be the most popular league during football season until fantasy came along. But picking a team to win each week, not being able to take them again, is as simple as it gets. You don't need to worry about every little injury like you […]
