NFL Survivor Pool strategy: Should you back the Bengals? Best options for Week 8 include a few pivots
The Bengals are sure to be popular in NFL Survivor Pools as the biggest favorite on the board in Week 8


We were able to avoid the consensus Texans in Week 7 as yet another big favorite went down, taking many NFL survivor pool players with it. Our top pick, the Vikings, had to fight to beat the Colts but got it done in the end, while our deep-format pick of the Jets ended up being the first team to lose to the Dolphins this season. Hopefully, you were able to get through with the Vikings or a less popular pick like the Broncos or the Browns.
Week 8 will feature another standout double-digit favorite with the Bengals hosting the Titans. Even with the spread inflating in the Colts-Jaguars game following multiple key players being traded by Indianapolis, Cincinnati is projected to be the consensus play, provided people didn't use them on the road against the Dolphins in Week 5.
Should you back that consensus play or spend another week looking for a pivot? We'll break the slate down below.
