Week 13 Results

The necessary results for Week 13 are in and the playoff bracket is full.

The Ravens pounded on the Bengals to the tune of 450+ yds, another pick-6, and 34 points to ensure andy73 of his place in the playoffs as a #3 seed. Other division clinchers included the Colts zero-offensive-TD 10-6 win coupled with the Chargers loss to the Falcons which gave the Kent Division to kerri78 as a #4 seed, and the New York Football Giants win clinched the Sussex Division for Mark as the #1 seed thanks to the Jets getting beat by the Broncos who just last week got beat by the Raiders. The Colts win along with the Chargers loss pushed Stephanie into the playoffs as the #6 seed.

So the playoff pairings look like this:
#1 Mark and #2 5687 get first round BYES but still need to make a pick for week 14 just incase those scores are needed for tiebreaking in round 2 or later.

#3 andy73 takes on #6 Stephanie in round one (week 14) and,
#4 kerri78 takes on #5 Jeff Gravatt in round one (week 14).

You can get on and make your picks for week 14 if you want even though the selection window won't OFFICIALLY open until midnight tomorrow night. The only thing that happens, though, is you will get a message that pops up and says the selection window for WEEK 13 is now closed... that has no effect on your pick for week 14. Good luck to those who made it into the playoffs, and thanks to everyone for playing. I look forward to having you all again next year if you wish. If you haven't already please take the time to fill out the short, 5 question, survey that pops up when you log onto the site. Thanks again.

NOTE: The site won't allow you to pick a team you're not allowed to pick. The playoffs refresh team picks. As is stated in the rules, you CAN pick the same team in week 14 as you did in week 13, but once into the playoffs you can not pick the same team two weeks in a row. Also, make sure to read up on the tiebreakers for the playoffs. The first tiebreaker is total playoff scoring and the second is playoff scoring added to regular season points differential. So, if in the first round you pick the same team as the person you are playing, the tiebreak will go to whomever has the higher regular season points differential since in round one, everything else will be the same.

I think the winnings breakdown should be 50/30/20. September 22, 2008 9:21 PM

What do you guys think about keeping the rules the same as far as picking your three teams and each week picking one, but instead of JUST picking a team, you get scheduled against an opponent who is also in the game. The person whose team wins by the most(or loses by the least) gets the victory? September 25, 2008 12:05 PM

I might remove the BYE week and start the playoffs a week early. This would set up a two week opening round, a one week 2nd round, and a two week championship round... 5 weeks of playoffs altogether. This might aleviate some of the tiebreaker issues I'm trying to work around with the current playoff set up. December 22, 2008 11:12 AM
