Each entrant must fill out a roster of 2 QBs, 2 RBs, 2 WRs, 2 TEs, 2 Ks, & 2 D/STs using one player maximum from each of the 12 playoff teams (you cannot pick 2 players from, for example, the Patriots). You will carry that roster for the entire playoffs with the total points accumulated deciding the winner.

With that in mind, the strategy is to select players whose team you expect to advance farthest in the playoffs (thus playing more games and having more opportunities to score fantasy points) at the positions which traditionally produce the highest scores (i.e. you probably wouldn't want to select a RB from a team you expect to be eliminated after one game).

The scoring system will be as follows:

1 pt per 25 yds passing
1 pt per 10 yds rushing
1 pt per 10 yds recieving
4 pts per passing TD
6 pts per rushing TD
6 pts per recieving TD
2 pts per two-pt conversion (passing/rushing/recieving)
-2 pts per INT
-2 pts per fumble lost

1 pt per XP
3 pts per FG up to 39 yds
4 pts per FG of 40-49 yds
5 pts per FG of 50+ yds

6 pts per D/ST TD
1 pt per sack
2 pts per INT
2 pts per fumble recovery
2 pts per safety
-2 pts per D/ST fumble lost
8 pts for total points allowed 0-6
6 pts for total points allowed 7-13
4 pts for total points allowed 14-20
2 pts for total points allowed 21-27

- Points will be counted after each individual game, no decimal scoring (i.e. if Peterson rushes for 87 yds in the division playoffs and 103 yds in the NFC Championship, he will recieve 8 pts and 10 pts, not 19 pts for the combined 190 yds)
- Touchdowns scored on special teams or defense will be awarded to that D/ST unit, not to individual players.

Each entry must select one of it's players to act as a tiebreaker. If two or more teams are tied, final standings will be determined by the highest scoring tiebreaker player (total points scored by that player for the playoffs) on the tied entries.

Submit your roster to this thread in the following format (example of a roster from last season):

QB: Newton CAR
QB: Brady NE
RB: West KC
RB: D Johnson ARI
WR: Baldwin SEA
WR: Brown PIT
TE: Reed WAS
TE: Eifert CIN
K: Crosby GB
K: Novak HOU
D: Denver
D: Minnesota

 

*Make sure to highlight the player you selected as your tiebreaker (use bold, italics, arrows, hell you can use bananas for all I care as long as it is noticeable)

If you wish to change your roster after entering it, do not edit your original entry post, simply make a new reply pointing out that you wish to change your entry and what lineup you are submitting in its place. All entries will be recorded at 4 PM EST Saturday, Jan 7th to prevent edits.

You wouldn't win anyway...

[gocolts 300]

I want to play, but I have no clue who is actually playing for the teams in the playoffs with all the injuries.

 

So, if anyone knows a place off the top of their head that I can find that kind of information, feel free to share it so I can jump in the fray.

 

If not, no biggie, and good luck to everyone.

[posty 2,612]

Just curious, not that I would take him, but is Ty Montgomery considered a RB or WR?

Gary, this is invalid unless Cairo Santos no longer kicks for the chiefs. You would have 2 chiefs. You need to change either santos or the DST to whichever team you didn't use. Looks like the Texans

Russell Wilson & Julio vs Matt Ryan and Doug Baldwin eh?

 

[jerryskids 6,559]

Russell Wilson & Julio vs Matt Ryan and Doug Baldwin eh?

 

 

Hadn't even realized that! Honest, every year I make a spreadsheet and move around pieces until I like the overall effect; I hadn't looked at anyone's lineups.

 

I also have Jordy vs. Davante.

 

If I have time tomorrow maybe I'll try to mix it up; heading out for the evening soon.

[ZeroTolerance 584]

With all of this overlap, this could be the least intriguing finish in contest history.
