there are a few teams that are going to play this week, jets, rams, bills, broncos, panthers, saints, vikings, basically all teams still fighting for a playoff spot. the game of the week will be the jets vs rams.

here's the playoff scenarios for week 17

I knew the ones still in the playoff hunt would play. I was wondering which teams that had their positions locked up would still play.

[L3thal Veteran]

Remember, just because a team benches a few players doesn't mean they'll lose. Some team's bench is worth more than the other's starters, such as the 49ers ;)

Are we doing playoff picks also?

[[yt]]

I was thinking about it... what does everyone else think?

[Xeonic]

Playoffs would be good...should everyone start at 0-0 again?

[L3thal Veteran]

We should make something like the top 5 make it to the playoffs or something. So whoever finishes in top 5 (for example), they would make it for the playoff picks, the others are just out and can do it for fun. This is the best way I can think of doing it.

It would be quite dumb if everyone joined in, it would mess up the competitiveness which this is.

What do you guys think?

[Laughing-Man]

I think last year we included the playoffs just like regular season except there would be a third report after the games were done for the week. You would have the overall score (regular season record + playoff record), the week score (record for the week), and the new report would be overall playoff score (record for the playoffs). The Neowin champion would be the winner of the year to date score (regular season record + playoff record). Tie breaker for the year to date would be the guess of the superbowl score.

For example:

Playoffs Round 2:

This Weeks Winner Is: jmole!

jmole..........................4-0 <---- Results from round 2 picks

Playoffs To Date:

jmole.........................7-1 <----- Results from round 1 + round 2 picks

Year To Date:

jmole.........................158-90 (+275) <--- Playoffs score would be added to this

Or if you want we could have a: Regular Season Neowin Winnner (don't add playoff picks to year to date), Playoff Winner (based off playoff picks), and Overall Winner (Regular season picks + Playoffs picks)

if we limit who can pick, then I think we should only allow the weekly winners to pick the playoffs. if we don't limit who can pick, then jmole's idea works fine.

If you want to limit people to the playoff picks, then it should only be the people have participated all 17 weeks. Oh well, it should be up to boog to decide, he is running the show.

I finally found last year's thread, we could do it the same way: Link.

585192076[/snapback]

hehe.. haven't we all been the weekly winner atleast once? :laugh::

how about we combine both ideas and i'll add my two cents:

160+ wins and your in the playoffs

reg season winner

playoffs winner

overall winner
