kkktookmybabyaway 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2004 There's no way I can make the playoffs, is there? No. The NFC playoff teams are set in stone -- Cartman, V-X, Bravesfan, Flik, Vern and Cereb. The only question left for that conference is the seeding. (Last week's thread goes into detail about this -- it's toward the end of the thread...) Now the AFC on the other hand...

kkktookmybabyaway 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2004 I don't think so. I didn't "officially" end the seasons of the 7-8 AFC teams, because I'm not spending time trying to figure out the fate of those teams. For starters, you'd have to hope that Pit, NE, Ind, Ten and Oak all lose, which probably isn't going to happen. Then you'd have to win the regular-season tiebreakers with not only them, but also any other 7-8 AFC team that happens to win this week. This is why I didn't bother calculating the playoff fortunes of you. Hope I didn't hurt your feelings. EDIT: Also I'm haven't dabbled in the playoff seedings yet. I'll just wait until final results are up before finding out who gets a first-week bye. In the NFC Flik and V-X are the top two seeds -- V-X has a better conference record than Vern, in case a tie-breaker is needed. In the AFC it could probably go a number of ways, and I'll just wait until the dust is settled before making an announcement. Here's a tip though for all AFC division leaders -- win...

USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2004 I'm not a wimp. I can take it like a man. Truth be told, I dug this grave myself, picking poorly the last month or so. If my season is over after this Sunday, then cool. I enjoyed the ride and will look forward to next year if you continue it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kkktookmybabyaway 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2004 Well, I just looked at your schedule, and you lost to Oakland twice and Indy once in the regular season, so you're out of the playoff picture already. And losing your last four games (one of which was via EP) didn't help your playoff hopes... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2004 And losing your last four games (one of which was via EP) didn't help your playoff hopes... Well I was on vacation the last two weeks, but stupidly thought I could still submit my picks. I was able to Week 15, but couldn't Week 16. I apologize. Considering though, that I am pretty reliable about submitting my picks with no missing info or missing tiebreakers prior to last week... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2005 Seedings for the AFC division winners are fairly simple: The HOU/CLE winner is #1, as Cleveland holds tiebreakers over all other clubs, regardless of whether there are 2, 3 or 4 tied teams at 10-6. The loser is #2 if DEN and BUF both lose, #4 if DEN and BUF both win, and #3 otherwise. Denver is #2 with a win, as they hold the tiebreaker over Houston (better conference record) but not over Cleveland (worse record vs. common opponents). They are #3 with a loss and a BUF loss, and #4 otherwise. Buffalo is #2 with a win and a DEN loss, as they would hold the tiebreaker over Houston if those two teams end up tied (better conference record). A win, a DEN win and a CLE loss would put them at #3, as Denver holds the tiebreaker over Buffalo (better conference record). Any other combination of results puts Buffalo at #4. The wild cards...I have NO idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now if you would have missed 5 weeks' worth of picks that would be another story in regards to your ability to keeping your franchise for next year's contest...
