How It Works

1

Pick a Team

Each week, choose one NFL team you think will win. By default you can only use each team once all season.

2

Survive the Week

If your team wins, you advance to the next week. If they lose, you're eliminated.

3

Last One Standing

Keep picking week after week. The last player still alive finishes first. Pools set up for the playoffs keep going past Week 18, but only if more than one entry survived it.

Features

Everything you need to run your NFL survivor pool

Runs Itself

Quick Setup

Pool ready in minutes. Share your link and sign-ups start rolling in.

Live Standings

Standings update as games go final. No spreadsheet, no waiting for someone to post them.

Automatic Deadlines

Set a weekly deadline or let picks lock game by game. Either way, it enforces itself.

Weekly Recap Emails

Who survived, who didn't, and what went wrong. Sent to every member automatically, toggle it off anytime.

Pick Reminders

Members get an email nudge before the deadline so forgotten picks don't cost them their season.

Auto-Pick

Forgotten picks auto-select the best available spread team. Or turn it off, so a missed pick means elimination.

Rules That Fit Your Group

Custom Rules

Tie handling, entry limits, the week your season starts. Set them once when you create the pool and it enforces them itself.

Multiple Entries

Players can enter as many times as your pool allows.

Double-Pick Weeks

Designate weeks where players must pick two teams. Both have to win. More strategy, more drama.

Required Games

In a double-pick week, force the first pick to come from a slate you choose, like the Thanksgiving games. Entries have to reserve eligible teams from the start of the season.

Playoffs

If more than one entry survives Week 18, the pool plays on through the Wild Card round to the Super Bowl. Used teams reset, so everyone starts that run fresh.

Multiple Lives

Give entries a set number of automatic mulligans so one bad week doesn't end their season. A commissioner can also manually revive an entry.

Second Chance Bracket

Eliminated entries keep playing in a runner-up bracket. The last one standing finishes 2nd.

Loser Pool

Flip the rules: entries pick a team to LOSE each week. Picking a winner is the mistake.

Against The Spread

Picks must cover the point spread, not just win outright. Lines lock every Wednesday at noon ET.

Team Reuse

Optionally let entries pick the same NFL team more than once. Pairs well with against-the-spread pools, since leaning on your best team every week is only risky if you have to cover the spread.

No Repeat Opponents

Stop entries picking against the same team week after week. Without it, one bad team is a free win for whoever plays them, over and over.

Hidden Picks

Keep picks and results under wraps until the deadline passes, so an early game can't reveal who is already out.

Commissioner Tools

Member & Entry Management

Search members, edit or remove entries, or revive eliminated players.

Custom Fields

Ask your own questions when someone joins, and make them required. Their answers sit on each member, private to you.

Fees Paid & Notes

Tick people off as their entry fee reaches you, and filter to whoever still owes. You collect the fees; Sunday Survivor never touches or verifies them. Nobody sees it but you, unless you let each member check their own. Each member also has a private note only you can see.

Manage Missing Picks

Fill in a pick for someone who missed the deadline, from any game that has not kicked off yet. Every fill is published to the pool, so nobody has to take your word for it.

Announcements

Post a message to your whole pool: a reminder, a rule change, trash talk. Editable anytime, right on the home screen.

Polls

Put a question to the group and let everyone vote. Settle a rules debate or just have some fun.

Player Tools

Path Planner

Map out every week you have left. Spend a strong team early and the hole it leaves in Week 12 shows up now.

Survivor Card

A shareable card of your season so far, one per entry. Built to post.

Pick Stats

Once picks lock, everyone sees what the pool went with and how popular each team was.

Reports

Which teams have busted the most entries, who is holding the strongest hand, who has been living dangerously.
