Introducing the 100 SCR NFL Playoff contest. This contest is your chance to prove your NFL prediction skills and win some cold hard Scorum.

Week 17 is almost done, the NFL playoffs are will be upon us next week. There is still a lot to be sorted out in the next couple hours but by tomorrow we will have the full first round set. In order to win this contest, you will need to choose what teams are going to have the most playoff success. Think you have what it takes to pick the teams to go all the way? All you need to do is pick the teams that you have the most confidence in.

How to play:

The pool is based on a Power Ranking system.

  1. Pool members rank all 12 NFL teams competing in the NFL Playoffs from strongest (12 points) to weakest (1 point). ***Bye teams get 0 points while on bye**

  2. Members are awarded the number of points assigned to an NFL team when that team wins. The team will receive that number of points for every win they get up to and including the Super Bowl. (Ex: If the Houston Texans are assigned 8 in the power rankings then they will be awarded 8 points for each game they win. If they win the Super Bowl then they would be awarded 32 points in total.

  3. That is it!! It is that Simple!!

***Important*** Teams that have a bye in the first round must be ranked but will receive no points for the first round so plan accordingly. This might have an impact on your rankings.

How can you maximize your total points?

Keep an eye on the games tonight to see what teams will be part of the playoffs and start ranking your teams.
