2016 nfl playoff pool???

$20 to get in

pick winners against the point spread for all playoff games and super bowl

point spreads will be posted on the friday morning prior to that weekends games

point spreads will come from covers.com and will not change after they are posted

all picks and tiebreaker total for each weekend must be pm'ed to me before the kickoff of the first game played

i will pm my picks to a random pool player each week after i post spreads on friday for transparency


to keep everyone involved through the super bowl, the games will be worth more each weekend

weekend 1 games are worth 1 point
weekend 2 games are worth 2 points
weekend 3 games are worth 3 points
super bowl is worth 4 points

MOST POINTS AFTER SUPER BOWL + WINS POT





TIEBREAKER:

pick the point total for the final game played each weekend


example: new england 56 pittsburgh 3

if you picked 60 for a point total for that game, you would get a score of 1 for your tiebreaker points

lowest total for tiebreaker points after 4 weekends wins tiebreaker





good luck

    Office pool junkie only allows for a pickem style playoff pool. I don't think the settings can be tweeked to Eric's idea.

    Thanks again Eric/Mike for setting up and being the bank.
    At first glace this week looks easy for me to choose which way I like in each game. This almost assures that I will go 0-4 :)

    So this is a winner take all? No second place?
