Time for the final football contest of the year. If this is your first time here, the idea is simple - pick the results of the NFL playoffs before they begin.

Rules and regs:
*To enter, post your picks for the entire NFL postseason by 4:30 on January 5th (kickoff of the first playoff game). You only need to pick the winning teams. (Example, you pick the Foobars over the Yippies. The Foobars beat the Wonkyducks instead. That's a correct pick.) Remember in the second round, the lowest remaining seed plays the 1 seed at their home stadium.
*Picking a correct winner in the Wild Card round gets you 10 points. The Divisional Round games are worth 20 points. The Divisional Championship games are 40 points apiece. The Super Bowl is 60 points.
*Ties will be broken by the number of games correctly picked. If that number is equal, the prize will be split
*Here are the prizes
-First place: $20 gift card for Amazon or Steam
-Second place: $10 gift card
-Last place - $2 gift card
-Perfect score - x2 Prize
-Double Prize winners (Sarge, Username, Klimbatize, Ghandi) - x2 Prize. A perfect score double prize winner gets x3 Prize.

Here are the seedings to help you make your picks. If you need help figuring out who plays who when, feel free to ask.

1 - Denver Broncos
2 - New England Patriots
3 - Houston Texans

5 - Indianapolis Colts

Houston is getting way too much credit seeing as how they've been in a death spiral lately.

Also, I agree with Sideway. Go Wonkeyducks.

I see I'm eligible for double prizes. What contest did I win?

Since Ghandi's win also slipped by the fairness-checker, I figured I'd let you in too as the second-place finisher (well, tied for second). Plus, your beard is sexy.

Why are so many people having Denver vs Houston in the second round? I don't think that's even possible

Probably because I started things rolling with a Cincy victory, and they picked Houston, so they assumed that's who Denver would play.
I'm not double-checking these things (remember, the winner is the only pick that matters no matter who they play), so if you have other changes, please give me a heads up. I've changed up Klim's.

Running out of time. Picks are final at 4:30 today. If you see a robot, get him in here.

10 entries. All updates.

So far everyone's in decent shape. No 0 scores, and nobody with a 10 picked their losing team to win next week. We'll see how tomorrow goes.
