Week 17 Discussion / Playoff Picture

[Guest]

That only drops me a couple spots, so no biggie. We'll actually be picking higher than last year, so maybe we can solve our problems.

[Guest]

Losing on the last second field goal and not making the playoffs at 10-6 sucks except for the better draft position we'll get because of it. Amazingly, 4 teams in the NC finished 10-6 and failed to make the playoffs.

Seems like it's feast or famine with teams in our conference. My first season I hosted a goddamned wild card game at 14-2. I'll never have a 14-2 team again.

[Guest]

Uh, ok... Rookie. Damn.

[Guest]

Oh man, Gino Hanks ends the season with 999 rushing yards. Dang.

[Guest]

Where'd I end up at for the draft?

Draft Order (best guess; should be accurate - sort by OPP %, then Record in Power Ratings)

1. SFO
2. KAL
3. BKL
4. LA
5. PXT
6. CHA
7. MEM
8. CHI
9. OHV
10. POR
11. STP
12. ANC
13. PC
14. WAS
15. SMD
16. MTC
17. LAC
18. PHO
19. NOS
20. NLB
21. YUM
22. GAI
23. MOR
24. CAM
25. LVS
26. DAK
27. BOS
28. PH
29. DEN
30. WAC
(30+1) UTA
(30+2) CLB

31 and 32 will go to the runner-up and bowl winner; otherwise there shouldn't be any changes to the draft slotting.

Because these are older NFL rules (i.e, the playoff teams don't make the bottom 12), division-winning WAS (for example) picks 14th unless they win the bowl.

Thanks. Looks like I get 23 and 27. Ick.

I'll try to make one of those a 32 for you

[Sharkn20]

9th?? Really??

Bad season and not Top 8 at least Pick!!

Damn 2026!!! Damn 2026!!!

And I fully expect you to fail. I hope.

I just don't see how anybody is going to stop Columbus this year.

[Guest]

I think I only came close to beating them in the regular season because Tubbs was questionable.

[Guest]

I beat em first game of the season without too much effort. That was weird.

[prinzar]

I think Lake County could be the surprise team. That offense is a nightmare to plan against. They set great numbers despite being without their best receiver.
Since he came back they went undefeated. Last years MVP under centre, put up very close numbers this year too.

[Guest]

division-winning WAS (for example) picks 14th unless they win the bowl.

I'm quite ok with either of those alternatives.
