IMPORTANT: The Football Pick’em Picks product works differently for the NFL playoffs. It does not provide customized picks for each of your pools. Instead, this pick strategy article will be updated to guide your pick selections.

Welcome to the PoolGenius pick strategy article for 2024-25 NFL playoff pick’em pools (and for pools that include both the regular season and playoffs). This premium article is available to subscribers with access to our Football Pick’em Picks product.

Because of the unique complexity of NFL playoff pick’em pools, our Football Pick’em Picks product does not provide customized, pool-specific pick recommendations for playoff pools as it does for regular-season pools.

Instead, this article provides our data-driven pick advice for playoff pick’em pools, from the Wild Card Round to the Super Bowl. We update it multiple times weekly throughout the playoffs, including news updates that will likely impact the pick’em pool strategy.
