Want to win your survivor pool? Who to take in Week 11

Breaking down the best strategies of how to win your NFL survivor pool as the season continues into Week 11.

The Philadelphia Eagles (8-1) finally lost, the Seattle Seahawks (6-4) came crashing down to Earth, and the Buffalo Bills (6-3) took another loss as well. Hopefully, you did not have those teams in your NFL survivor pool for Week 10.

The Eagles dropped their 1st game of the season, falling 32-21 as 11-point home favorites to the Washington Commanders (5-5) Monday night. The Seahawks had a 4-game win streak snapped in 21-16 defeat as 2.5-point road underdogs at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (5-5), and the Bills lost as 6.5-point favorites in what some are calling the “game of the year” in a 33-30 overtime loss to the Minnesota Vikings (8-1).

Those games are now in the past, so let’s focus on the future to Week 11.

The chalk: Philadelphia Eagles

Who they play: At Indianapolis Colts, 1 p.m. (CBS)

Although Monday’s home loss to the Commanders was not the result the Eagles or their fans wanted, it could serve to make the team more focused moving forward. No longer do they have to hear about being undefeated. Now, it’s all about the next game and their next opponent.

Despite upsetting the Las Vegas Raiders 25-20 as 4.5-point road underdogs in Week 10, the Colts (4-5-1) are still not in a wonderful spot. New coach Jeff Saturday had the Colts amped in his 1st game Sunday, but the Eagles are not the Raiders.

After coming into Monday night’s game with a +18 turnover margin and only having 3 turnovers all season, Philadelphia had 3 turnovers in the loss. This was the main reason the team failed to improve to 9-0 … bad officiating aside. Philadelphia will bounce back at Indy. CB Darius Slay and FS C.J. Gardner-Johnson will shut down Indianapolis’ wide receivers, while Colts RB Jonathan Taylor, who after getting back on track with 147 yards against the Raiders — his 1st 100-yard game since Week 1 — will find running far more difficult against the Philadelphia front.

The Eagles area good team, and I’m not yet willing to say the Colts are back with their new coach. Therefore, the EAGLES are my FAVORITE SURVIVOR PLAY in Week 11.

Off the board: Baltimore Ravens

Who they play: Home vs. Carolina Panthers, 1 p.m. (FOX)

The Ravens (6-3) are coming off their bye week following a 27-13 victory as 1-point road favorites at the New Orleans Saints. Despite losing 3 games, the Ravens have held double-digit leads in every game this season. They should be able to continue that streak against the Panthers (3-7), one of the worst teams in the NFL.

Carolina QB P.J. Walker has been ruled out for Sunday’s game after suffering a high ankle sprain in Week 10’s surprising 25-15 home win vs. the Atlanta Falcons. QB Baker Mayfield will start, which we’ve seen before and it didn’t turn out well for Carolina.

RB Christian McCaffrey is gone — traded to San Francisco — and, unfortunately for the Panthers, WR D.J. Moore can’t throw the ball to himself.

With the Ravens getting healthy in the bye week, the defense will get after Mayfield and force him into bad decisions. The Ravens, at home, will win another game they lead by double-digits. Only this time, they will win by double-digits as well.
