📋 Lord of Locks Rules

2026–2027 Season

Weekly Picks

Five games are selected each week. Every participant picks one team against the spread in each game.

Each participant must choose one of their five weekly picks as their 2-point pick. A correct 2-point pick is worth 2 points instead of 1.

All picks lock every Sunday at 1:00 PM Eastern Time.

Sunday Night Football and Monday Night Football games may be used. Games that begin before 1:00 PM Sunday are not eligible.

Standings are tracked for the full season, Weeks 1–9, and Weeks 10–18.

Other participants' picks remain hidden until the Sunday 1:00 PM ET lock. After the deadline, everyone's picks for that week become visible.
