Everyone is welcome to join. You did not have to take part in the Regular Season competition to participate in the playoff competition.

It will be a straight pick the winner, no bonus points for picking an underdog.
No Lock Picks like we did in the regular season.

Each round a correct pick is worth progressively more points. I plan to have a bunch of prop questions for the Super Bowl, similar to years past.

We will use the same scoring we have used for the last few years. Points come from the mind of Howie.
Wild Card Round (8 Points)

Divisional Round (15 Points)

Conference Championship Round (25 Points)

Super Bowl (37 Points)

The Vikings vs Rams game has been moved to Glendale, Arizona due to the fires in California.

Los Angeles Chargers - I've been getting the Texans wrong a lot lately so let's go Harbag.
Baltimore Ravens - Steelers haven't won since early December. Another one-and-done in the Playoffs for Tomlin.
Buffalo Bills - Broncos are plucky but not enough for Josh Allen and company.
Green Bay Packers - Don't know if Hurts has shaken off the cobwebs yet.
Washington Redskins - Bucs won in Week 1. We're a totally different team now. Revenge!
Minnesota Vikings - Despite the fact that they got stomped by the Lions last week I think they can take the Rams.

Last year I was undefeated in the Playoff Pool.

Chiefs are going to have to go through Washington for that to happen. Devil

I'd love to see Washington knock the Lions out of the playoffs, but I think we all know that's highly unlikely. Wall

I wouldn't say it's "highly unlikely" necessarily. Lions can be beat, they have two losses this year. It might not be probable but definitely not impossible. If they keep it close and Jayden has a chance in the fourth quarter then we'll see. Daydreaming

Divisional Round (15 points each)

Kansas City Chiefs - Texans have been playing well and Chiefs are known this year for just squeaking by so I'm going KC 19-17.
Washington Redskins - Lions are 0-3 against Washington in the Playoffs. Let's make it 0-4.
Los Angeles Rams - This might be just because I don't like the Eagles. Shame on You

Buffalo Bills - Lamar seems to have a problem winning in the playoffs. Bills on the way to KC to lay an egg.

Well see when I said "highly unlikely" what I meant to say was "the Commanders are for sure gonna win" stupid autocorrect 🤣
