What is NFL Pick'em?
NFL Pick'em is the simplest football pool there is. Every week, each player picks the winner of every NFL game. When the games go final, whoever called the most winners takes the week. Run it across the whole season and the standings become a months long bragging rights contest for your friends, family, or coworkers.
It works because anyone can play. Your uncle who watches every snap and your coworker who picks by jersey color have the same sheet in front of them, and upsets keep everyone honest.
The pools themselves live on Comped.com, the free home of the game. Create yours with the form above and you land on Comped with your pool ready and your commissioner link in hand.

Pick'em formats compared
| Format | How picks are graded | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Straight up | Pick the winner of each game, every correct pick is one point | Casual groups and first time pools |
| Against the spread | Picks are graded against the betting line, not the final score alone | Groups who want favorites and underdogs to matter equally |
| Confidence points | Rank your picks from most to least confident, correct picks earn their rank | Experienced pools that want strategy on top of picking |
Our tool supports all three. Straight up is the default, and you can turn on spreads or confidence points when you create your pool.
How the tiebreaker works
Most weeks somebody ties. The classic fix is the Monday night total: everyone predicts the combined score of the Monday game, and whoever comes closest wins the tie. You can switch this on when you create your pool, and we recommend it. Without a tiebreaker, split pots get old fast.
Tips for running a great pool
- Share early in the week so nobody misses the Thursday game
- Decide payouts up front if your group plays for money, weekly winners, season winners, or both
- Post the standings in your group chat every Monday to keep people engaged
- Let latecomers join mid season for weekly prizes even if the season race is out of reach
During the season
Once your pool is set up, the weekly rhythm runs itself. Players get the new slate each week, picks lock at kickoff, and results fill in as games end. The standings page shows weekly winners and the season leaderboard side by side, so both races stay visible all year.
Skip the spreadsheet and the chase for late picks. Create your pool above, send one link, and you are done before the coffee is cold. Everything after that happens on Comped.com, where your pool and its standings live all season.
