NFL Pick'em Predictions for This Week

Make your NFL Pick'em predictions for every game on this week's schedule. Select each winner yourself, or use nfelo to autofill the card with model-based straight-up picks. You can change any selection before entering your name and tiebreaker, then print either your completed picks or a blank Pick'em sheet.

The objective of a standard Pick'em contest is simply to choose which team will win each game. Variants like spread based pick'em or "Pick 5" ask you to pick games against the spread. Regardless of which game type you play, the nfelo model and pick'em tool can support it.

How nfelo Makes Its Straight-Up NFL Picks

nfelo's straight-up NFL picks come from the same model that powers its game projections. The model estimates each team's strength and makes game-level adjustments for factors like quarterback value, home-field advantage, rest, weather. It's one of the the most accurate models for the NFL and is tracked on Prediction Tracker.

Each projection produces an expected winner. Selecting nfelo under Autofill applies those model picks to every game on the weekly card, while still allowing you to override any selection.

This is different from an expert-picks panel or a list of betting recommendations. Every nfelo selection is model driven, meaning it uses data through a consistent methodology that doesn't change based on week-to-week narratives. Learn more about the data and methodology on the About nfelo page.

A predicted winner is not necessarily the team most likely to cover the spread. Straight-up picks ask only who will win the game. Since nfelo projects both a win probability and a spread, the model can be used for either type of pick'em game.

How to Make and Print Your Weekly Pick'em Picks

1. Choose Pick'em, Spreads, or Pick 5, depending on the format used by your pool.
2. Select the team you expect to win each matchup or use the model's recommendations by selecting nfelo under Autofill.
3. Review the selections and change any picks where you disagree.
4. Enter your name and predicted total score for the designated tiebreaker game.
5. Select Print picks for a completed entry or Print blank for an empty weekly sheet.

The matchups are organized by game date and kickoff time, making it easy to check that every selection is complete before the week begins.

Printable NFL Pick'em Sheet

Select Print picks to print a completed NFL Pick'em sheet containing your name, tiebreaker prediction, and selected winner for every game.

Select Print blank when participants will make their picks by hand. The blank sheet uses the same current-week NFL schedule but leaves the selections open.

This allows you to use the tool for an individual entry, office pool, family contest, or any other weekly Pick'em format without copying the schedule into a separate template.

Pick'em, Spread Picks, and Confidence Pools

These pool formats use the same NFL matchups but score selections differently:

• Pick'em: Choose the outright winner of each game. The point spread does not determine whether the pick is correct.
• Spread picks: Choose a team relative to the listed spread. A team may lose the game and still cover.
• Confidence pool: Choose each winner and assign a confidence value based on how strongly you favor the selection.

If your contest requires confidence values, use nfelo's NFL confidence pool picks tool instead. The Pick'em tool above is designed for pools that primarily need game-winner selections.
