With the bevy of upsets last week, if you're still alive in Week 15 NFL survivor pools, then hat tip to you. Five teams that were atop their divisions lost, further proving that there are no guarantees with NFL survivor pools. Dolphins vs. Jets looks like an appealing game to back Miami with Week 15 NFL survivor picks, but the Jets looked downright dominant in a win over Houston, while Miami is coming off a short week. So, which other games should you consider instead as we near the finish line of the 2023 NFL season?

Before you make your Week 15 NFL survivor picks, you NEED to see which team the SportsLine Projection Model is backing.

The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up well over $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters Week 15 of the 2023 NFL season on an incredible 176-129 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season. It is also on a 30-21 roll on top-rated NFL picks since Week 7 of last season.

The model also ranked in the top 10 on NFLPickWatch four of the past six years on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 94% 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, which calls for picking one team to win each week but never using the same team twice.

In Week 15 of the 2023 NFL season, we can tell you the model is shying away from the Titans even though they are 2-point home favorites over the Texans. Tennessee will be coming off a short week after playing on Monday, and its recent body of work doesn't indicate it can topple a team in playoff contention like the Texans. Tennessee has lost four of its last five games, with the one victory coming against the NFL's worst team in the Panthers. Meanwhile, no team has turned the ball over fewer times than Houston, and the Texans have also forced nine turnovers over their last five games. Taking all of this into account, the model is avoiding the Titans in Week 15 NFL survivor picks.

Instead, the model is backing a team with a dominant defense ahead of a Week 15 matchup against a squad with a struggling offense! Picking this team will put you in the optimal position to win your NFL survivor pool this week. You NEED to see which team the model is backing before locking in your NFL survivor picks!
