How do I run an NFL pick'em pool with friends?

Download Prodefy free, create a group, choose NFL 2026-2027 and invite via link or WhatsApp. Everyone picks each week's games and the leaderboard updates automatically with official results.

What are power-ups and how do they work in the NFL?

Every player gets strategic power-ups: Double Points (doubles what you earn on a game you choose), Late Change (adjust a pick) and Spy (peek at your group's picks). In the NFL, with 18 weeks, your group can enable weekly refresh: powers come back every week and the strategy resets.

How does scoring work?

Simple: 3 points for calling the winner — and the tie is a valid pick too. There's no exact-score mode in the NFL (nailing a 27-24 is impossible); it's pure pick'em, week by week. Power-ups can multiply what you earn.

Do you support survivor or confidence pools?

Not yet — Prodefy runs weekly pick'em pools: you pick every game (3 points per correct call, ties count) and the leaderboard runs all 18 weeks, so nobody is eliminated in Week 3. Many groups switch from survivor for exactly that reason.

Yes: you pick every week of the 18-week regular season, then playoffs and the Super Bowl. You can join mid-season anytime.

When does the 2026 NFL season start?

Kickoff week is September 10, 2026, and Super Bowl LXI is played in February 2027.

Can I run my office pool on Prodefy?

That's the most popular use. Create the group, share the link, done. For company branding, reach out from our business section.

Is it free? Is there betting?

Prodefy is 100% free for groups up to 15. It's a points game with a live leaderboard, played for bragging rights.

What happens if a game ends in a tie?

NFL ties are rare but real (regular season, after overtime). In Prodefy the tie is a valid pick: if you called it, you score. No pushes, no coin flips: whoever called it, wins it.

What is an NFL pick'em pool?

An NFL pick'em pool is the classic office game: everyone picks each week's winners — and the tie is a valid pick, no pushes, and whoever gets the most right takes the week — and the bragging rights.

With Prodefy the pool runs itself: create a private group, invite via WhatsApp or link, and everyone picks from their phone. Results sync automatically and the leaderboard updates live — nobody tallies points on a spreadsheet.

The 2026 NFL season kicks off September 10: 18 regular-season weeks, the playoffs and Super Bowl LXI in February 2027.

You will see it written NFL pick em, pickem or pick'em — same game, three spellings. Some offices run a survivor pool instead; here everyone keeps picking every week.

A pick'em is played by picking the winner game by game, no scores. It works the same in the AFC as in the NFC, and keeps working through wild card weekend and Super Bowl Sunday.
