Fantasy Playoffs Rules & Regulations

| December 24th, 2010

ELIGIBILITY

All bloggers are eligible for the opportunity to win a monthly column on the site from the end of February through July.  You’ll submit your weekly picks in the same manner you submitted your picks in Da Picks Contest – right in the comments section.  I will keep track and keep scores.  I will not be competing.


SELECTION

Each round, you select one (1) quarterback, one (1) running
back and one (1) wide receiver or tight end. 
Once you select a player, he become ineligible to you for the remainder
of the postseason.  (Thus the winner is
ultimately the individual who finds the most productive players on the losing
sides.  If you make the Super Bowl and don’t have a quarterback eligible, you’re screwed.)


SCORING

Touchdowns for all players, including kick and punt
returns, are worth six (6) points. 

Two point conversions are worth two (2) points.

Passing yards:

250 yards – 3 pts

300 yards – 6 pts

2 points for every additional 50 yards

Rushing/Receiving yards:

50 yards – 3 pts

100 yards – 6 pts

2 points for every additional 25 yards

Interceptions and fumbles lost are -3 pts each

ELIMINATION/STANDINGS

Once again, all bloggers are eligible for the Wild Card round.

After the Wild Card round, the bottom half of the standings will be eliminated.

After the Divisional round, the bottom half of the standings will be eliminated.

After the Conference Championship games, only four players will remain.

The final four face-off on Super Bowl Sunday for the championship.  (These picks will be made privately to my email in the days leading up to the game.)


TIEBREAKER

The breaker of all ties is the total accumulated yardage of the three players on your roster each round.  If by some chance there is a second tiebreaker needed (which would be ridiculous), we’ll use in order (1) Completion percentage of quarterback (2) Yards per rush of running back (3) Yards after catch of receiver.  If players select the same three individuals for the Super Bowl, I’ll set an additional tiebreaker for that game.


I WILL PUT UP THE SATURDAY SHOW ON FRIDAY MORNING AND ALL SELECTIONS WILL NEED TO BE IN THE COMMENTS BY KICKOFF OF THE FIRST SATURDAY GAME.  THERE WILL BE A GAME THREAD FOR ALL FOUR GAMES, WHICH I’LL LEAVE UP UNTIL WE KNOW THE BEARS OPPONENT SUNDAY NIGHT.


Any questions, I will answer below.
