Staff Confidence Pool (No Spread) Week 15

Will Grant's Staff Confidence Pool (No Spread) Week 15 Will Grant Published 12/12/2019

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

There were plenty of good scores this week, but two guys really stood out with strong performances in week 14. Matt Bitonti only missed three games and finished with 115 total confidence points. However, James Brimacombe notched his first weekly win of the season with 116 points. Brimacombe also missed just three games, but he managed his risk just a little better to give him the win. Well done for both guys!

The Denver upset this week was the biggest upset of the week. Everyone missed that game, and the 235 confidence points lost were the second-highest game of the week.

OVERALL RANKINGS

Miglio is still holding down the top spot by the narrowest of margins. The next three teams are separated by just six points, and they continue to swap places as we head into the final weeks of the season. The top five overall teams all finished with more than 100 points last week and they are starting to put some distance between themselves and the rest of the group. It's going to be a tight race to the finish.
