Each game locks at its own kickoff
A pick'em doesn't close on Sunday morning. Thursday's game locks Thursday night, and the Monday game stays open until Monday. Every dot below is a real game this week, placed at its kickoff time. The filled ones have already locked.
Week 7: 14 games. 1 locked, 13 still open. Next to lock: PIT at NO, Sun, Oct 25, 9:30 AM EDT.

A pick'em for the pools that live in a group chat
Pickem Maker is for the office pool, the family league, and the neighborhood pool that doesn't need another login. One link runs the whole thing. Picks are straight-up winners, one per game, with the classic rules people already know.
If you're looking for a free alternative to RunYourPool or OfficeFootballPool, this is one: no per-pool fee and no upsell. And unlike ESPN or Yahoo pick'em, nobody has to make an account. That includes the commissioner.
Questions
What is a pick'em pool?
Everyone picks the winner of every NFL game each week. A correct pick is a win. A wrong pick, or no pick, is a loss once the game is final. Most wins leads the pool.
Do I have to press save?
No. Tapping a team saves that pick right away, and the sheet shows a check when it's in. You can change it as many times as you like until that game kicks off.
When do picks lock?
Each game locks at its own kickoff. A Thursday game locks Thursday night while Sunday and Monday games stay open.
Can people see my picks?
Not before kickoff. Each pick shows up on the pool sheet once its game starts, so nobody can copy you.
Is there a weekly winner?
Yes. Standings show the season leaderboard and the winner of every finished week, with ties shown as ties.
Spreads, confidence points, survivor?
Not here. It's straight-up winners only, which is the format most office pools use.
How is this different from RunYourPool or ESPN pick'em?
RunYourPool and OfficeFootballPool are built around paid plans for bigger pools. ESPN and Yahoo pick'em are free, but everyone has to sign in and play inside their app. Pickem Maker is free with no signup for anyone.
