NFL 2026 Survivor Pool Journey - Mapping Out The Season And Your Week 2 Pick
So there I was watching the Chargers/Cardinals game thinking to myself what an absolute idiot I am. At least half an idiot as I had them with one of my two precious few survivor picks. I can't believe how embarrassing this team is. Even for the Chargers. It was fire everyone bad. See ya Mike McDaniels. Back to the looney bin Jim Harbaugh. What a joke of a team.
Fire all the guys watching this team in practice too saying this team was about to explode on the scene. What are we doing here?
Here's what the fall out looked like in my pool. 34% out. Just like that.
Whatever, we're moving on. One entry is all we need to go 18 anyway. Here are the best options for Week 2.
BUCCANEERS at Browns
This survivor pool might be the easiest thing in the world if we just play everyone that plays the Browns as the default until you run up against them playing a division team for the second time. I'm seriously considering this so long as Watson is at quarterback and maybe even otherwise. There is no hope for the Browns. None. Zero.
EAGLES at Titans
I'm still not sure how good the Eagles are given how bad everyone thought the Commanders would be. But the Titans look exactly like I thought they would. Actually worse. This was my mapped out pick for Week 2 before Week 1 so nothing really changing that except for the Browns theory idea.
49ERS vs Dolphins
I thought the Dolphins looked frisky bad to be honest. That's a compliment, I guess. But -13.5 dogs bad? This looks to be a popular pick and I can tell you right now I'm staying away. Maybe the travel does affect them.
THE PICK
BUCCANEERS vs Browns
Yeah, we're running the football this week. I don't care how popular this pick is going to be, the Browns are a dead football team. Plus Baker is going to be mad he played like shit while running with the ball last week. Let's just keep things clean this week and move on.
BTW - I'll shake things up for Week 3 and on most likely after the Cardinals proved they are probably a "don't fuck with" team now.
Good luck in Week 2. Here's your rest of season road map.
