Welcome all to the Post-Season Thread! Here, we will make our final predictions as the NFL season comes to an end for this year and we give out our grand prize of 50,000 Viz to the winner ( as well as other Viz prizes ). But before we start our predictions, let’s take a look at some additional rules:

Everyone will predict the winners of all remaining games that are played throughout the Post-Season. However, each week will be given a matchup game, in which players will have to predict the score of said game in case they were to tie. The player with the best record in the matchup will win and move on to the next round ( obviously ). But, if the records are the same, then it will fall to the Tiebreakers and here is how they work:

1. If the record is the same, then it will go to the player who correctly predicted the winning team of the game. If both players correctly ( or incorrectly ) predicted the winner of the game, then it goes to Tiebreaker #2.
2. The player who correctly predicted the winning team's score will move on. If both players correctly ( or incorrectly ) predicted the score, then it goes to Tiebreaker #3.
3. The player who has the least margin of difference in the prediction of the winning team's score to their actual score will move on. If both players have the same differential, then it goes to Tiebreaker #4.
4. The player who correctly predicted the losing team’s score will move on. If both players correctly ( or incorrectly ) predicted the score, then it goes to Tiebreaker #5.
5. The player who has the least margin of difference in the prediction of the losing team's score to their actual score will move on. If both players have the same differential, then it goes to Tiebreaker #6.
6. The player who has the better overall record from the Regular Season will move on. If both players have the same record, then it will fall to their overall Pre-Season record. Hopefully, we won’t have to pass Tiebreaker #3, but anything is possible and we are prepared.

The matchups for Wild Card Week are shown below. Note that your seed ranking is based on your Regular Season and Pre-Season records. So, if your overall record for the Regular Season was tied with someone else’s overall record, then the player with the better win/loss ratio for the Pre-Season would get the higher seed.

North Vizzed Conference ( NVC ) :
( 4 ) jparks34 @ ( 1 ) Kruzer ( will predict the Steelers @ Bengals final score )
( 3 ) tornadocam @ ( 2 ) MattyIce ( will predict the Chiefs @ Texans final score )

South Vizzed Conference ( SVC ) :
( 4 ) Barathemos @ ( 1 ) gamerforlifeforever2 ( will predict the Seahawks @ Vikings final score )
( 3 ) pacman1755 @ NintendoFan0513 ( 2 ) ( will predict the Packers @ Redskins final score )

Teams on bye this week include the Patriots, Panthers, Cardinals, and Broncos. Here are the games for Wild Card Week and their scheduled times:

SATURDAY GAMES:
( 5 ) Chiefs @ Texans ( 4 ) Starts at 4:20 PM EST
( 6 ) Steelers @ Bengals ( 3 ) Starts at 8:15 PM EST
SUNDAY GAMES:
( 6 ) Seahawks @ Vikings ( 3 ) Starts at 1:05 PM EST
( 5 ) Packers @ Redskins ( 4 ) Starts at 4:40 PM EST

Another Note, there will be no consolation matches this year. So, the 4 players who lose this week ( Wild Card Week ) will place from 5th to 8th place. Then, the 2 players who lose next week ( Divisional Playoffs ) will place 3rd and 4th place. And finally, the player who loses the next week ( Conference Championships ) will place 2nd and the winner will be crowned with 1st place. The Super Bowl will not be counted in the competition mainly because we did not acquire enough participants to create a decent tournament. Good Luck to All!

SATURDAY GAMES:
( 5 ) Chiefs @ Texans ( 4 ) CHIEFS
( 6 ) Steelers @ Bengals ( 3 ) BENGALS get their first playoff win in over 20 years

Here are the predictions for the games today to start off Wild Card Week:

Kruzer : Chiefs, Bengals ( Bengals win 24 - 18 )
MattyIce : Chiefs, Steelers ( Chiefs win 21 - 13 )
gamerforlifeforever2 : Chiefs, Bengals
NintendoFan0513 : Chiefs, Bengals
pacman1755 : Chiefs, Bengals
tornadocam : Chiefs, Bengals ( Chiefs win 30 - 18 )
Barathemos : Chiefs, Steelers
jparks34 : No Picks ( No Prediction )

6 - 0 Chiefs, 4 - 2 Bengals
* NOBODY picked the Texans over the Chiefs

Last night's game was a hard one to swallow for the Bengals. I still don't see how Bryant's catch counted as a TD since he was bobbling it the whole time but whatever.. it's just another questionable call during the playoffs again. Anyways, here are the picks that will finish up Wild Card Week:

MattyIce : Seahawks, Packers ( 2 - 0 so far for the Wild Card )
Barathemos : Seahawks, Packers ( 2 - 0 ) | ( Seahawks win 34 - 24 )
Kruzer : Vikings, Redskins ( 1 - 1 )
gamerforlifeforever2 : Seahawks, Redskins ( 1 - 1 ) | ( Seahawks win 24 - 20 )
NintendoFan0513 : Seahawks, Packers ( 1 - 1 ) | ( Packers win 28 - 17 )
pacman1755 : Seahawks, Redskins ( 1 - 1 ) | ( Redskins win 31 - 24 )
tornadocam : Seahawks, Packers ( 1 - 1 )
jparks34 : No Picks ( 0 - 3 )

6 - 1 Seahawks, 4 - 3 GB
* Kruzer is the only one who picked the Vikings over the Seahawks

The Wild Card is over and now it is down to 8 teams. Interesting to know that this is the first time in NFL history when all 4 road teams advance and move on to the Divisional Playoffs. Can't believe the Vikings lost but that's why you gotta keep those LACES OUT! C'mon Man! Anyways, here are the current rankings after the Wild Card Week:

( 1 )
( 2 )
( 3 )
( 4 )
( 5 ) tornadocam ( 3 - 1 for the Post-Season )
( 6 ) gamerforlifeforever2 ( 2 - 2 ) * Wins Tiebreaker #1
( 7 ) pacman1755 ( 2 - 2 )
( 8 ) jparks34 ( 0 - 4 )

Only 4 contestants remain as we approach the Divisional Playoffs. Here is the schedule and the match ups for this week:

North Vizzed Conference ( NVC ) :
( 2 ) MattyIce @ ( 1 ) Kruzer ( Will predict the Steelers @ Broncos score )
South Vizzed Conference ( SVC ) :
( 4 ) Barathemos @ ( 2 ) NintendoFan0513 ( Will predict the Packers @ Cardinals score )

SATURDAY GAMES:
( 5 ) Chiefs @ Patriots ( 2 )  PATRIOTS
( 5 ) Packers @ Cardinals ( 2 )  CARDINALS
SUNDAY GAMES:
( 6 ) Seahawks @ Panthers ( 1 )  PANTHERS
( 6 ) Steelers @ Broncos ( 1 )  BRONCOS will win 19 - 17

It's disappointing to see that I'm out of the playoffs already. If it hadn't been for Burfict and Jones' stupid behavior and Jeremy Hill's fumble, I'd still be in it.

SATURDAY GAMES:
( 5 ) Chiefs @ Patriots ( 2 ) CHIEFS
( 5 ) Packers @ Cardinals ( 2 )  PACKERS 33-27
SUNDAY GAMES:
( 6 ) Seahawks @ Panthers ( 1 )  PANTHERS
( 6 ) Steelers @ Broncos ( 1 )  STEELERS

The 2 Teams for AFC my pick for the championships are the Patriots vs the Broncos. NFC picks for me is Seahawks vs the Packers for reason to see if Seattle can make it again this year. Broncos and Patriots to prove to the world you guys were complaining about your team losing to the Patriots winning last year against the broncos. If the balls were deflated the ref would of checked whether or not during every play what explains the ball going flying if the ball was really deflated it would go a shorter distance. The refs handle the balls as much as the players do they would of felt something. Seahawks vs Patriots for Superbowl would be a good game lke last year. My pick is always ending up patriots to win because i am a pats fan.

Time for the Divisional Round. Here are the picks for the games today:

Kruzer : Patriots, Cardinals
MattyIce : Patriots, Cardinals
NintendoFan0513 : Patriots, Cardinals ( Cardinals win 24 - 17 )
Barathemos: Chiefs, Packers ( Packers win 33 - 27 )

3 - 1 Patriots, 3 - 1 Cardinals
* Barathemos is the only one who picked the Chiefs over the Patriots and the Packers over the Cardinals

This is it, the last day of the Divisional Round. Here are the picks for the games today:

Kruzer : Panthers, Broncos ( 2 - 2 so far for the Divisional Round ) - ( Broncos win 19 - 17 )
MattyIce : Panthers, Steelers Broncos ( 2 - 2 ) - ( Steelers Broncos win 24 - 21 )
NintendoFan0513 : Panthers, Broncos ( 2 - 2 )
Barathemos: Panthers, Steelers ( 0 - 2 )

4 - 0 Panthers, 2 - 2 PIT/DEN 3 - 1 Denver
* NOBODY picked the Seahawks over the Panthers

EDIT: MattyIce changed his pick from PIT to DEN at the last possible second
