Most pools lock each game at its own kickoff, so Thursday picks lock first and Monday picks last. Check your pool rules, because some commissioners lock the whole week before the first Sunday game.

Spreads, moneylines and totals are pulled from a major US sportsbook and refreshed several times a week. They are shown for reference; NFL Pickem Hub does not take bets.
