NFL Survivor · Straight up

Picksheet NFL Survivor

Survive the stretch run.

Pick one winner straight up each week (double picks start in Week 10) and try to outlast everybody else. You can’t reuse a team, and one wrong pick ends that entry. The pool keeps going through the playoffs if it has to.

Format
Survivor, winners straight up
Entries
Up to three per person
Runs
Week 1 through the Super Bowl
Deadline
Sundays at 1:00 PM ET

A 500-entry credit for the last entry standing

The last surviving entry earns a 500-entry credit toward a future Picksheet pool you host. All three of your entries are prize-eligible, and if more than one is still alive after the Super Bowl the credit is split evenly and rounded up.

The rules that matter

  • One pick a week, except two picks in Weeks 10–18 and the Wild Card round. Earlier games lock at kickoff, and each playoff round locks at its first kickoff.
  • An incorrect, tied, or missed pick eliminates the entry, and team availability resets for the playoffs.
  • If everyone is wiped out in the same week, the pool revives and keeps going. Spreads are shown for reference, and advance picks are allowed.

Free to enter. One pick most weeks, two once the stretch run starts.

NFL Pick’em · Confidence

Picksheet NFL Pick 7

Seven picks. A prize every week.

Pick seven games against the spread each week and assign 1-7 confidence points. Every NFL week stands alone, so a bad Sunday costs you that week and nothing more. You can show up in Week 6 and still play for every prize that’s left.

Format
Seven games ATS, 1-7 confidence points
Entries
One per person
Runs
Week 1 through Week 18
Deadline
Each pick locks at its own kickoff

A 25-entry credit every week

Win a week and you’ll earn a 25-entry credit toward a future Picksheet pool you host. There’s no season-long prize, and every credit you win over the season combines into one balance.

The rules that matter

  • Spreads are set automatically at Tuesday noon ET and use half-points.
  • A missed pick is scored as an incorrect pick, and picks become visible as each game locks.
  • The weekly tiebreaker is the combined final score of that week’s last scheduled game, overtime included.

Free to enter. Seven picks a week, once the spreads post on Tuesday.

Prize details

  • Prizes are entry credits toward one future Picksheet pool you host, not cash. A credit can’t be divided among pools, transferred, exchanged for cash, or combined with someone else’s.
  • Credits must be applied to an eligible Picksheet invoice by September 30, 2027. Any unused portion expires when the credit is applied.
  • Entry is free. Players must be 18 or older, have a Picksheet account, and be legally eligible to receive a prize. Entry limits are per person, not per account or email address.
  • Picksheet and TeamRankings employees, contractors, and members of their households are welcome to play, but are not eligible for prizes.
  • Each pool page carries the complete prize, tiebreak, and eligibility terms for that contest. Read them there before you enter.
