Board 8 > Board 8's NFL Point Prediction League 2022 - Week 18

(+) Yeah! (+)

Rules:

1. Each week, you will be predicting the score for two teams. These two teams do NOT have to be facing one another.
2. You cannot pick a team twice, until you've picked for all other teams. At which point you can predict them a second time but never a third time. A spreadsheet will be available to list available teams for you. There is an exception for week 14. If you've already picked for all teams except for 5 or 6 on a BYE during that week, you may repeat your teams a week early, but then cannot pick repeat teams again until week 18. (Or one in week 17 as the case may be)
3. If you miss a week, you will be automatically given the worst score of the week +7. So if the worst score in a week is a combined 22, you will be given 29 points.
4. The Top 12 pickers will move on to the playoffs.
5. Each week there will be a tiebreaker Triple Threat. You can predict the result of 0, 1, 2, or 3 of those games. You will then earn tiebreaker points based on how many you get right. For each you get right, you earn 10 points. For each you get wrong you lose 30 points. If you get every one you predict correct, your points will be doubled. This means if you go 1/1 you get 20 points. If you go 2/2 you get 40 points. And if you go 3/3 you get 60 points. But if you go 2/3 you lose 10 points. And if you go 1/2 you lose 20 points. And if you go 0/1 you lose 30 points. You do not have to pick any of them. Doing so, however, will earn you 0 points.
6. There will also be a final tiebreaker in week 18. Any further ties will be decided by the record against playoff teams (If you've picked them twice, those scores will be halved. So if you get +3 and +7, your score will be considered 5, not 10)
7. A Score Prediction must be posted before the game starts. Tiebreakers must be posted before those games start. The Thursday Night game will never be part of the tiebreaker so as to give everyone time to pick a tiebreaker.
8. If you do not make a pick for a team by season's end, the penalty will be 2x the worst score for that team. (Example: If the worst score for the jets is 6 points, you get 12 points for the Jets in addition to all your other points)

Last week did not finish, so congrats to those who did well last week!

Found 3 points I didn't count for SwiftyDC, but it does not affect his final placement.

Anyway, we only have 12 players for the playoffs (11 if you don't count Emeraldegg who didn't show up) so here's how the playoffs will work:

The Top 4 seeds get Byes (Dancedreamer, KCF0107, davidponte and myself)

The remaining 8 will face off in 4 of this weekends games by seeding. Two games will not get picked. The matchups will be determined by your score differential with your opponent.

So here's the schedule for wildcard weekend:

BYE: dancedreamer, KFC0107, davidponte, Ashethan

thekitchensink gets a choice between: Seahawks @ 49ers, Jaguars @ Chargers and Dolphins @ Bills

The remaining games are:

Giants @ Vikings
Runemistress vs theawesomestevr

Ravens @ Bengals
Stripperiffic vs HanOfTheNekos

Cowboys @ Buccaneers
Buffy_Summers vs SwiftyDC
