MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER
The
AFC is still a huge mess for the final playoff spot as someone is going
to get it with a losing record and there are at least 6 teams
mathematically alive for the spot. The NFC has 4 spots clinched now as
KC joins the party and we are down to three teams for two spots with
ATL/SEA going head to head. Be sure if you have trouble hooking up that
you get a plan in place and contact me for a sub if needed.
Final week of the season!
Thanks for the great work guys!
I have updated files on the website for week 17, go ahead and get
those and start making your game contacts for the week, with home team
making contact by Tuesday and the games hopefully being set up by
Wednesday.
I
can’t stress enough that you need to IMMEDIATELY send me your game
export when the game is complete.
Send your write up later on, that’s fine, but I MUST have the
game export as soon as the game ends or I’ll have to sim the game to
keep things moving along if it is missing at the deadline.
Don’t
forget, if you lose a player for 2 or more games, you can ask for an
injury replacement, but it must be done the same week as the injury, so
don’t wait, get those requests in right away and take advantage,
especially the teams who are already challenged for the amount of games
they have to work with.
Also, be sure you give me enough names as the more injuries the more
likely someone else already grabbed the guy you want.
Reminder that you MUST send a boxscore and writeup to the league after
each game. The home team is
responsible for this, but either team can do it, as long as it does get
done. Also, you MUST send me
the game export immediately after the game is complete.
It takes about 30 seconds, so I shouldn’t have to chase you down
for that file after a game, just get it in right away so I don’t have to
guess whether a game has happened or not.

News from Around the League
In
the AFC, San Diego gets the win over Cleveland and despite a Dallas win
over Minnesota the Chargers lock up the West and Dallas is set at the #4
seed and a home game in round 1.
Indianapolis wins over St. Louis to stay with the Chargers at the
top of the conference and Denver beats Houston and locks into the #3
slot and a Wild Card home game.
Tennessee makes a huge comeback against San Francisco and are
locked into the #5 seed and Pittsburgh upsets Green Bay to stay alive in
the playoff race. Buffalo
falls to New England and NY Jets beat Chicago as both teams stay within
a game of Cleveland.
Week
17 in the AFC San Diego hosts Carolina and Indianapolis has New England
in town in the fight for the top slot in the AFC.
Denver heads to NY Jets looking to end their playoff chances and
Dallas hosts Chicago as they tune up for the playoffs.
Tennessee has Minnesota coming to town and Cleveland can wrap up
the #6 seed with a win over Houston.
Buffalo will try and ruin Jacksonville’s playoff dreams and
Pittsburgh will try and sneak into the playoffs with a win over San
Francisco.
Week
17 in the NFC Philadelphia has a tough game in Detroit while New Orleans
also has a good contest with Kansas City as the top 4 teams in the
conference go hth looking for playoff seeding.
Atlanta is in Seattle with the loser possibly out of the playoffs
if Jacksonville can win their game in Buffalo.
Green Bay looks for win #9 at Tampa Bay and St. Louis hosts
Arizona. Ny Giants and Miami
close out the schedule in a game with draft lottery implications.
The
playoff races in the AFC are almost done.
San Diego will clinch the #1 seed with a win as they hold the
tiebreakers over Indianapolis who must win and get a Chargers loss to
take the top spot. Denver is
locked in at #3, Dallas is the same at #4 and Tennessee is the #5 seed
heading to Dallas in round 1.
Cleveland can clinch the #6 seed with a win over Houston. If they
lose, Houston would move ahead of them with 2 hth wins and then if
Buffalo, Pittsburgh and NY Jets win they could all be in the mix as
well. Too many options to
break them all down, but if someone wants to do it, feel free and I will
post it :O)
The
NFC If Detroit and KC win, then Detroit would be the #1 seed and the
West would come down to the 5th tiebreaker which could still
change depending on these final games.
Philly wins and New Orleans loses, then Philly is the #1 seed and
Detroit falls to #2. If New
Orleans wins and Philly loses, then New Orleans would be the #1 seed and
Detroit #2 as the Saints won hth.
Kansas City is the #3 seed and the loser of the West is the #4
seed. If Jacksonville wins
then the winner of Seattle/Atlanta also gets in and the loser is out.
If Jacksonville loses, then the winner of Seattle/Atlanta is the
#5 seed and then Jacksonville would be in if Atlanta loses or they would
go deep into the tiebreakers with Seattle and I believe would win the
common opponent record to get the #6 seed so looks like they are in no
matter what. Green Bay joins
the ranks of those who are out after being upset by Pittsburgh.
