Guys,

I might be missing something, but I don't see a playoff challenge available on ESPN. If it isn't out by now, they might not host one this year.

There is one available on NFL.com and I have started a group there.

The name of the group is: MBBRL
and the password is: KOTFvsBarbarians

Anybody who wants a shot is welcome to play, whether you were in MBBRL or not. There is no limit to how many can be in the group. Just be sure to read the rules first, as there are some interesting scoring rules.

You can either join by searching the NFL.com site, or if you want an email invite, just PM me with your email address.

For anybody trying to reach me after Thursday, I will be out of town and may not have a chance to get online. If I don't reply to you, that is why.

Dude, you can change them..................lmao. Just go back in and roll over the player and the edit button will pop up under the player............and like Tlance said you need to look at the rules...........the longer you use a player the more he can score for you.

Thanks, Sam. I guess every once in awhile looking at rules might come in handy. :rollseyes:

I am in.
Am I correct that you get double points in week two even for those teams that advance via a bye?:noidea:

Going to Vegas this weekend with a buddy to watch the games from the Caesar's Sportsbook (should be a blast). May not get on much until next week.

Sam- how did you do this? Did you have to use a different email? I am invited to play in two of these and both using NFL.com.

I'm in a league there so I was already in and I just put in a team for giggles. Then when I signed in under our group it automatically moved my entry to our group (I think). As far as double points for by week guys I guess I didn't see that.............lol. I Cheffed................:suds:

If you start a player for consecutive weeks, you get to double his score. 3 weeks in a row means triple, and 4 is quadruple. You can start players on bye this week and get double their score next week.

I joined the group, but I'm afraid that I might be too dumb to figure out how to play. The Brady example used in the instructions doesn't make any sense to me, since NE has a bye in the WC round, but the example assumes that he scores 15 fantasy points in the "first weekly scoring period", followed by 20 points in the divisional round.

It also uses Brady as a bye week example. I think that's all it was, an example. In any event, it sure does make things interesting.

So which of us wins the Super Bowl trip? :rollseyes:

This has gotta be one of the dumbest rules I've heard of in quite some time

Should have read that more closely before writing what I posted before. If I understand correctly then, you want to choose players who you not only expect to score a lot of points in a given week, but also who play on teams that you expect to keep advancing in the playoffs.
