Survivor pools have become one of the most popular gambling options for NFL fans in recent years. Big brands like DraftKings and Circa are among those offering monster prizes in 2021. Each week, TheLines will run through some of the best survivor options to help you win your pool. Listen in for NFL survivor Week 6 plays.
There’s a clear top tier of two teams that represent the likeliest way for Week 6 survivor players to advance. Distill them down further, and it seems clear one will be much more popular than the other.
Start with the Rams. This didn’t originally look like a layup, but a few things have conspired to push them up the board. Primarily, the Giants endured a rash of injuries this Sunday against the Cowboys. They lost QB Daniel Jones and RB Saquon Barkley and neither seems all that likely to return this week, with Jones probably more likely than Barkley to pull a fast recovery. WR Kenny Golladay also sustained a non-serious knee injury. That would ordinarily not be a huge deal since the Giants have plenty of capable pass catchers, but Darius Slayton and Sterling Shepard had already gone down.
