NFL Pick 'Em Pools

Add to the excitement with your own pool for your family, friends, or business promotion.

Our NFL Pick'Em pool format is arguably our most traditional football pool, with the option to pick against the spread or straight-up. Even though this format is basic, it can still be very difficult for someone running the football pool to keep up with gathering the picks and calculating standings manually. That is where we come in.

How does our NFL Pick'Em Pool format work?

  • Each pool member picks NFL games each week.
    • Limit how many games must be picked each week.
    • Optionally use 'Best Bet' picks or 'Confidence' points.
  • Picks can be made against the point spread or straight-up without it. If you go with the spreads, you can choose to use our point spreads or enter your own each week.
  • Optional 'Monday Night Football' tiebreaker of total combined points.
  • For each correct pick during the regular season, members receive one point (customizable).
  • Standings are calculated for the week and for the year-to-date.

Frequently Asked Questions

"Football Pool" is a catch-all term for a group of people competitively guessing the outcome of one or more football games. There are many types of formats, each assigning winners differently. They can be played informally between friends or through a more formalized system. They are often considered a great alternative to fantasy football given the ease of playing.

The word "confidence" in "Football Confidence Pool" refers to how you rank the teams that you think will win each week. For example, in the NFL, there are often 16 games weekly. In this scenario, you would rank each game from 16 to 1, based on the your confidence in that team winning.
