Before you make your Week 6 Survivor pick, check out the recommended play from the SportsLine Projection Model.

The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up over $7,500 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception five-plus years ago. It's off to a strong 10-5 roll on top-rated NFL picks this season. And it enters Week 6 on an incredible 106-70 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season.

The model ranked in the Top 10 on NFLPickWatch in three of the past four years on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 95 percent of CBS Sports office pool players three 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 6, we can tell you the model is shying away from the Steelers, even though they're undefeated and hosting Cleveland. While the Steelers are winning 71 percent of simulations, the model is saving them for another week. Instead, the model is backing a SHOCKING team with a record below .500! Picking this team not only will get you to Week 7, it will also put you in the optimal position to go deep in your NFL survivor pool. 

You NEED to see which team the model is backing before locking in your NFL survivor picks!
