If you’ve got a couple of friends who love to gamble, here’s a new NFL gambling pool that I started that you can do if you only have a few players. This works best with 3-5 players. It is similar to my World Cup Gambling Pool in that you draft all the teams in the NFL and get points when they perform well. Winner of the pool is the the player with the most points at the end of the season and playoffs. My pool was 4 players so we each drafted 8 teams.
Here is the how the scoring works:
Regular Season
win: 2 points
tie: 1 point
win by 20+ points: +1 bonus point
shutout: +1 bonus point
Season Performance
top record in NFL: 5 points
other teams with 1st round bye: 4 points
other playoff teams: 3 points
top offense (pts scored): 2 points
top defense (pts scored: 2 points
worst offense (pts scored): -2 points
worst defense (pts scored): -2 points
Playoffs
1st round win: 3 points
divisional round win: 4 points
conference final win: 5 points
super bowl champ: 6 points
win by 20+ points: +1 bonus point
shutout: +1 bonus point
