We’re only two weeks into the 2024 NFL season and nearly three-quarters of fans making NFL survivor pool picks have already been eliminated. The Bengals lost as 7.5-point favorites to the Patriots in Week 1, while the Ravens lost as 8.5-point favorites against the Raiders in Week 2. This week, there are five teams favored by six points or more in the NFL odds, so how can you find a team in position to get a win while avoiding upsets with your NFL knockout pool picks? Winning NFL eliminator pool picks are all about understanding how to duck the major upset while also leaving yourself with reliable options later in the season. Before finalizing any Week 3 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 643-543-34 against the spread to put him up more than 46 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. Then in Week 2, he avoided the Ravens, who lost to the Raiders as 8.5-point favorites, and instead backed the Texans, who defeated the Bears.
Anyone who followed his advice avoided two of the biggest NFL upsets of the season and advanced to Week 3.
Now, White has turned his attention to the latest Week 3 NFL odds and locked in his Week 3 survivor pool pick. You can only see who White is backing this week at SportsLine.
