To help you stay alive in your weekly survivor pools, every week I will share a few teams that I feel good about winning their game. I also play in a Loser Pool, so this will work for those as well. I’ll be posting the Weekly Spread charts via DraftKings here each week to help you see the full lay of the land. My favorite advice for these pools is to ALWAYS LOOK AHEAD. You want to map out your picks for the next week or two and save teams if you can.

Blowout League:
So I play in a “Blowout League” where you have to pick a team each week with the idea that they are going to win by a lot of points. However many points your pick wins by, you get those points for the week. If your team loses, you lose those same amount of points that they lost by. You can only use each team once for the year, so strategy comes into play pretty early here.
It’s a tough week for blowout picks, as our list of teams is getting shorter and shorter. I like the Texans to beat the Giants in HOU, as well as the Vikings fresh off their BYE at home against the Colts.
