The office football pool,
fantasy football style.

PlayoffBlitz is an office football pool where everyone picks players instead of teams. Each week every member sets a lineup of eight NFL players, and the most points wins. There's no draft, so the whole office can play, including the people who have never played fantasy football.

Run it for the four weeks of the NFL playoffs, or for the whole regular season.

Create a League

Why it works for an office.

Built for a crowd, not for eight people on draft night.

Everybody can play

Every league has unlimited members. Six people or sixty, the league fee is the same and the members join free.

Nothing to schedule

There is no draft night. Send the invite around, and people join when they get to it.

No fantasy knowledge needed

A lineup is a quarterback, two running backs, two wide receivers, a tight end, a kicker and a defense. If you watch football, you can pick one.

An NFL playoff pool that lasts four weeks

The playoff league runs from Wild Card weekend to the Super Bowl. Everyone sets a new lineup each round from the teams still playing, and each player can be started only once. Four lineups, and you have a champion.

The playoff fantasy football page walks through the four weeks.

How it compares to other football pools

A pick'em pool: everyone picks the winner of every game. Here, everyone picks eight players.
A survivor pool: one wrong pick and you're out. Here, nobody is knocked out, so the whole office is still playing in the last week.
Squares: your numbers are drawn for you. Here, you choose your players.

What the commissioner does

One person starts the league and pays the league fee once. That's the commissioner. They invite everyone else, and they can set a lineup for a member who is out sick or stuck in a meeting.

A regular season pool, too

The same game runs all season. The regular season league covers NFL weeks 1 to 16, with a new lineup every week and all 32 teams to pick from.
