While there were only three teams favored by at least six points last week, there are eight favored by that margin in the Week 2 NFL odds. This creates plenty of options when it comes to making Week 2 NFL survivor picks for anyone who avoided picking Cincinnati last week. The Bengals were upset by the Patriots as 8.5-point underdogs, knocking out a large chunk of NFL survivor pools. There will be more NFL upset picks to come, so which teams should you avoid with your Week 2 NFL survivor strategy?
Tampa Bay is coming off a 37-20 win over Washington in its season opener, as quarterback Baker Mayfield completed 24 of 30 passes for 289 yards and four touchdowns. The Buccaneers are 7-point road underdogs against the Lions, but can you trust Detroit with your Week 2 NFL eliminator pool picks? Before finalizing any Week 2 NFL survivor picks, you need to see which team proven expert R.J. White is backing.
White has been SportsLine’s No. 1 NFL against-the-spread expert over the last seven years, going 636-534-34 against the spread to put him up more than 48 units on those picks at SportsLine since 2017. He has also delivered a 56.7% hit rate on his Vegas contest picks over the last nine seasons and has two finishes in the money, including finishing 18th out of 2,748 entries back in 2017.
His advice 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 1, White correctly recommended to avoid the Bengals, who lost to the Patriots as 8.5-point favorites. Instead, White picked the Saints, who beat the Panthers by 37 points in the most lopsided game of the week. Anyone who followed his advice avoided one of the biggest NFL upsets of the season and advanced to Week 2.
Now, White has turned his attention to the latest Week 2 NFL odds and locked in his Week 2 survivor pool pick. You can only see who White is backing this…
