How to use it
Survive the week without forgetting the season.
Start with the highest win probabilities, remove any team you have already used, then consider whether saving a heavy favorite creates more value in a later week. The board ranks this week only; it does not know your pool history.
A favorite is not safe. One upset ends most survivor entries, so the probability is a decision input—not a guarantee.
The model uses only information available before the target week: opponent-adjusted team strength, scoring form, prior-season strength, home field and rest. Market odds are shown for context and do not create the team rating.
Read the methodology →When do these NFL picks update?
The board refreshes with the scheduled data release before kickoff. Each game prediction freezes when that game starts.
Does the model use the betting line to make its pick?
No. Team strength, scoring, site and rest create the prediction. The timestamped market line is shown separately for comparison.
Does FTT know which survivor teams I already used?
No. Remove teams already used in your own pool before choosing from the ranked board.
