NFL 33 Pools for 2024

In the NFL 33 pool format, members are each assigned a unique NFL team (32 members max). Members win when their team scores 33 points. There are usually 4-7 scores of 33 points throughout the season.

This is an excellent format for the more casual user, looking for some excitement during the NFL season without having to research picks or rush to get their picks in before a deadline.

Pool Options

We offer several different options for how you can run your 33 Point football Pool:

  • Randomly assign different NFL teams to your members each week (with each receiving exactly one bye), or once for the whole season.
  • Choose whether members must get the exact target score of 33, or if the person closest to 33 points wins.
  • Change the target score from 33. Make the target any number of your choosing.

Declaring Winners

Pool commissioners have several different options for how you can declare winners:

  • Traditional: Winners are declared only when their team scores exactly 33 points. If no team scores 33 points during a week, the pool will roll over to the following week. When someone finally hits 33 points, they are considered the winner of that week, and all consecutive weeks prior that did have NOT a winner.
  • Guaranteed Weekly Winner: If you set your pool to "closest to 33 wins", you will have a guaranteed winner each week who is the closest to the target score (doesn't matter if you go over).
  • Seasonal Winner: We calculate a running total of the difference each member's team deviates from the target score each week and provide a seasonal differential, showing who was the closest to the target on average.
