Week 4 of the NFL concluded, and in Confidence pools, there were some hits and misses. Let’s take a look at the picks made and recommended last week. How did I do?
A Reminder Of The Rules
For NFL confidence pools, the rules are simple. Rank all 16 games by how confident you feel about each pick. The more confident you are with the pick, gets 16 points you get (Most confident), all the way down to 1 point (Least). Now it’s hard to determine every game because the NFL is unpredictable, but it’s a fun way to boost your confidence.
How Did I Do For Week 4 For Confidence Picks
16. Buffalo Bills – Bills Win (16 Points)
15. Denver Broncos – Broncos Win (15 Points)
14. Detroit Lions – Lions Win (14 Points)
13. Green Bay Packers – Packers Tied (13 Points) *My Survivor Pick For This Week*
12. Philadelphia Eagles – Eagles Win (12 Points)
11. New England Patriots – Patriots Win (11 Points)
10. Los Angeles Chargers – Chargers Lost
9. Los Angeles Rams – Rams Win (9 Points)

7. Minnesota Vikings – Vikings Lost
6. San Francisco 49ers – 49ers Lost
5. Seattle Seahawks – Seahawks Won (5 Points)
4. Baltimore Ravens – Ravens Lost
3. Washington Commanders – Commanders Lost
2. Miami Dolphins – Dolphins Win (2 points)
1. Chicago Bears – Bears Win (1 Point)
Total Points Week 1: 106/136
Total Points Week 2: 109/136
Total Points Week 3: 93/136
Total Points Week 4: 106/136
Let’s Address The Tie
Alright, so in the Packers vs Cowboys game, it ended in a 40-40 tie, and this got many to wonder what this means when calculating points in confidence pools. So, when it comes to Ties in Confidence pools, what are the rules? Well, like in survivor pools, it depends on the type of pool that you are in. Sometimes it counts as no points, and other times it does. For the sake of this article and most pools I am in, I will be counting it.
Worst Pick of The Week
The Chargers got outplayed by the New York Giants, but that is not the worst pick of the week. It’s the San Francisco 49ers. Definitely should have paid attention to the injury report, as that team is so much more hurt than originally thought, and a lot of notable players got reinjured in this game. The Jaguars were the right side to lean in that game due to health, and honestly, I regret not picking it.
Final Thoughts – An Improvement To Last Week
Compared to last week, it was definitely a much better performance, wise for me. However, it’s going to get tougher now that bye weeks are starting in Week 5. No matter what, it’s better to improve than decline. So I am back on the right track. Make sure to check back for more Confidence pool selections.
