Staff Confidence Pool (No Spread) Week 15

Will Grant's Staff Confidence Pool (No Spread) Week 15 Will Grant Published 12/13/2018

Looking to dominate your office pool this season? Fifteen Footballguys.com staff members are here to help you out. Each week they will pick the winners of every NFL game, and rank their selections based on how confident they are that the team will win. The most-confident pick gets 16 points, and the least-confident gets just 1. We'll even total up everyone's picks so you can get an overall consensus on who our staff think will be the most likely winners. Each week we'll announce the weekly winners, and track the overall record for the entire season. A couple of things to note before we get to the picks:

  • Picks for this pool are straight up (no point spread considered).
  • Picks are due on Wednesday nights, and will not reflect any late-breaking news. If your league allows for last minute changes, please make adjustments to your office pool accordingly.
  • Our staffers also play in weekly picks Against The Spread, and Survivor Style 'Pick one Winner each week' formats as well. Check out the other weekly articles for more help with those type of games.

RESULTS FROM LAST WEEK

Another rough week for the overall leaderboard, but Keith Roberts managed to notch his third finish on top of the weekly board. Keith only missed five games in an otherwise rough week and managed his confidence points well enough to edge out Andrew Garda who also missed five games, but had two fewer points than Roberts. Well done.

Upsets by Miami and Oakland really took down a lot of points this week. Indianapolis, San Francisco and Chicago all did damage as well.

OVERALL RANKINGS

Brimacombe gained just a point on Larkin this week, showing just how tough it is to make a significant move at this point in the season. Tuccitto and Pasquino are still hanging on, but with just three weeks to go, they need to do more than keep pace like they did last week.
