Subject: Re: Playoff Rule Change (for next year)? Author: Rats [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: Wednesday, December 14, 01:45:31pm In reply to: Rats 's message, "Playoff Rule Change (for next year)?" on Monday, December 05, 03:32:34pm After discussing this with other owners, I want to clear up any confusion. Head-to-head should only apply to Divisional tiebreakers--because we play teams within our division twice. So a 2-0 record against the team you share a win/loss record with would send you into the playoffs. A 1-1 record against them would defer to the next tiebreaker (maybe total points, maybe conference wins). A Wildcard tiebreaker would be determined either through conference wins or total points, not head-to-head. Losing twice to a team you played twice in the same season (yet you make the playoffs over them due to total points) is the problem I see. It hasn't happened yet, but it probably will.

Author: Rats [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: Wednesday, December 14, 02:09:21pm Also, I'd like to see more money go to the Super Bowl champ and less to the runner up and playoff teams. Maybe 80% to the champ, then 10% to the Super Bowl loser, and the last 10% divided amongst the wildcard winners and 3rd place team. Not much for the losers, but this is such a long stressful season. The winner should get more than $650 after we've all sunk over $1100 dollars into this thing. It's just a personal opinion. If I don't make it to the Super Bowl, I wouldn't expect much monetary return to begin with. So maybe: Super Bowl winner: $762 instead of $632 Super Bowl loser: $95 instead of $180 Conference losers: $33 a piece (3.5% a piece, 7% total), instead of $90 and $50 respectively Wildcard losers: $14 a piece (1.5% a piece, 3% total) So if you make the playoffs, you'll get something back, but not much unless you go all the way. I don't know. Something like that. I'm bored at work and it's just an idea.
