Looking to dominate your office pool this season? Eighteen 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 types of games.
RESULTS FROM LAST WEEK
Well, it took 12 weeks but Andrew Davenport became the first staffer to win his second weekly confidence pool. It couldn't have come at a better time for him (see below). Davenport missed only two games this week - the same two that everyone else on the leaderboard missed - Detroit and Atlanta. He only lost 11 points on those two games as well - excellent work.

Aside from the Lions and the Falcons hurting everyone, the big win by the Jets over Oakland also did some damage.
OVERALL RANKINGS
Roberts took a tumble this week, leaving Miglio alone as the overall leader. However, Davenport's second win has him running a very close second. Devin Knotts and Jeff Pasquino are both within six points of the top spot, despite neither winning an individual week this season.
