The NFL Week 4 Pick’em Sheet 2026 puts all 16 games on one page so your pool can lock in winners before Thursday night. Week 4 runs from Thursday, October 1 through Monday, October 5. Print the sheet, mark your picks, and settle it on Tuesday morning.
Make this one count. Week 4 is the last week of the season when all 32 teams play, because bye weeks start in Week 5 and the sheet gets shorter from here.

Running the pool every week? The Week 5 Pick’em Sheet is ready as soon as this one is scored, and it is the first short slate of the season.
How to Run a Week 4 Pick’em Pool
Most pools take five minutes to set up. Agree on the format first, then the deadline, then the tiebreaker. Write all three at the top of the master copy so there is no argument on Monday night.
| FORMAT | HOW IT SCORES | BEST FOR |
|---|---|---|
| Straight up | 1 point per correct winner, 16 points possible | First timers and mixed skill groups |
| Confidence points | Rank all 16 games from 16 down to 1 and bank the value of each correct pick | Season long office pools |
| Survivor | Pick one winner a week, a loss ends your run, no team twice | Large groups that want a long chase |
| Knockout | Lowest weekly score is eliminated until one player is left | Small offices of 8 to 15 players |
For the tiebreaker, ask every player to write the total combined points in Falcons at Saints on Monday night. Closest number wins. From Week 5 the sheet stops being 16 games, because byes begin and two teams sit out each week, so agree now whether your scoring is a raw total or a percentage. Keep the full 2026 NFL schedule printable beside your master copy to see who is off and when.
Week 4 Games That Decide Most Pools
Week 4 has an odd shape. One game kicks off before breakfast on the West Coast, one late window holds a single game, and the Monday finale is the only one on a channel most homes do not get free. These four are the ones to think about twice.
- Colts at Commanders, Sunday 9:30 a.m. Played at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, 2:30 p.m. local, with Washington as the designated home team. Body clocks, an early kickoff and a neutral crowd all pull against form. It also settles hours before the rest of your sheet, so a wrong pick here sets the tone early.
- Steelers at Browns, Thursday 8:15 p.m. An AFC North road game on a short week, and the game that locks your whole sheet. Divisional Thursday games are the least predictable slot on the calendar.
- Patriots at Bills, Sunday 1:00 p.m. New England reached Super Bowl LX last season and Buffalo has a new head coach in Joe Brady. An AFC East meeting this early tells you more about both teams than the first three weeks did.
- Falcons at Saints, Monday 8:15 p.m. The tiebreaker game in most pools, and a divisional rivalry where records rarely predict the score. Take care with the points number here.
One practical tip. Only 13 of the 16 games are on free channels this week, the fewest so far. If your pool watches together, check who has Prime Video, NFL Network and ESPN before Thursday, or three games will go unwatched and get scored off a phone.
NFL Week 4 Pick’em Sheet 2026 FAQ
How many games do I pick in NFL Week 4 2026?
Sixteen. Week 4 is the last week of the season when all 32 teams play, because bye weeks start in Week 5. The slate is one Thursday game, 14 games on Sunday and one on Monday night.
When is the deadline to turn in Week 4 picks?
Most pools lock at the first kickoff, which is Thursday, October 1 at 8:15 p.m. ET for Steelers at Browns. Collect sheets on Thursday afternoon. Pools that lock game by game should note the London game starts at 9:30 a.m. ET on Sunday, not 1:00 p.m.
Where is the Week 4 London game played?
Colts at Commanders is played at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London at 9:30 a.m. ET, which is 2:30 p.m. local time. Washington is the designated home team. It is carried on NFL Network rather than a free over the air channel.
How do you break a tie in a Week 4 pool?
The standard tiebreaker is total combined points in the last game of the week, which is Falcons at Saints on Monday, October 5. Each player writes one number before kickoff and the closest guess wins. Some pools use closest without going over instead.
Is the Week 4 Monday night game on ABC?
No. Falcons at Saints is on ESPN only, with no ABC simulcast, unlike the Monday games in Weeks 1, 2 and 3. If your group relies on an antenna, that game needs a subscription.
Can I watch every Week 4 game without cable?
Not this week. Thirteen of the 16 games are on free over the air channels, CBS with seven, FOX with five and NBC with one. Three need a subscription: the Thursday game on Prime Video, the London game on NFL Network and the Monday game on ESPN. That is the fewest free games of the season so far.
Which Week 4 game is hardest to pick?
Colts at Commanders in London. A 9:30 a.m. ET kickoff, a transatlantic trip and a neutral crowd all work against normal form, and Washington holds the home label on paper only. Early London games rarely follow the script.
The NFL Week 4 Pick’em Sheet 2026 covers a Thursday divisional opener in Cleveland, an early morning kickoff in London, a single game in the 4:05 window and a Monday night finish in New Orleans. One page, sixteen picks, no app.
Print one copy per player, collect them all before 8:15 p.m. ET on October 1, and make everyone write a tiebreaker number. This is also the moment to settle your bye week rule, because from next week two teams sit out and a raw score no longer compares cleanly across players who joined late.
Every matchup, kickoff time and TV channel on this sheet is checked against the official NFL Week 4 schedule.
