Tom Brady has yet to get past the Los Angeles Rams since joining the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who have seen two of their last three losses come against the club following last Sunday’s 34-24 setback. The defeat will serve as extra motivation for Brady, who will return to New England this week for the first time since parting ways with the Patriots last offseason. Brady and the Buccaneers will attempt to bounce back from the loss and are seven-point favorites against the Patriots in the latest Week 4 NFL odds from Caesars Sportsbook, and many will jump on them with their NFL survivor pool picks. Can you also trust them in your NFL picks and NFL parlays?
Other favorites that could attract attention for NFL knockout pool picks include the Buffalo Bills (-16.5 against the Houston Texans), Tennessee Titans (-7.5 against the New York Jets) and New Orleans Saints (-8 against the New York Giants). Before making any Week 4 NFL survivor picks, you need to see which team the red-hot SportsLine Projection Model just went all-in on.
The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up almost $7,900 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception six-plus years ago. It went a sizzling 24-14 on top-rated NFL picks last season, returning more than $800. The model also enters Week 4 of the 2021 season on an incredible 123-81 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season.
The model also ranked in the Top 10 on NFLPickWatch four of the past five years on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 94 percent of CBS Sports Football Pick’em players four times during that span. Anyone who has followed it is way up.
The model can be used to crush the survivor pool format. Each week, the available team winning the most computer simulations has prevailed straight-up. Last week, the model made it three in a row with Carolina defeating the Texans. You can only see who the model is backing this week at SportsLine.
Top Week 4 NFL survivor pool predictions
For Week 4, the model is shying away from the Cardinals in their showdown against the Rams. Arizona’s defense is eighth against the pass this season (202 yards) but will face the sixth-ranked passing offense in the NFL, as Los Angeles is averaging 304.3 yards through the air. Quarterback Matthew Stafford is fifth in the league with 942 yards and tied for second with nine touchdown passes while throwing just one interception.
Stafford has formed an exceptional connection with wide receiver Cooper Kupp, who fell four receiving yards shy of his third straight 100-yard performance in last Sunday’s victory over Tampa Bay. The 28-year-old Kupp leads the NFL with five TD catches after hauling in two for the second straight week and also is first in the league with 367 yards. The Cardinals have posted at least 31 points in every game thus far, but the Rams are too dangerous for the model’s projections this week.
How to make Week 4 NFL survivor pool picks
Instead, the model is backing a team that has posted back-to-back victories and is facing an opponent that is struggling. Picking this team not only will get you to Week 5, it also will put you in the optimal position to go deep in your NFL survivor pool. The time to pick this team is now, and you can only see the play over at SportsLine.
