Beat Mike Playoffs
Round 1
Hello and congrats to all who made it into the Beat Mike Playoffs! This is a great honor if this is your first time in them, and if you been before, it's a great honor for you too! The playoffs work as Head-to-Head. Obviously, who ever has the most picks right wins. The games are as follow:
#5 St. Louis Rams (8-8) @ #4 Seattle Seahawks (9-7) (Sat. 4:30PM, ABC; Locally: 5, 6, 8, 9, 19, 40)
#5 New York Jets (10-6) @ #4 San Diego Chargers (12-4) (Sat. 8PM, ABC; Locally: 5, 6, 8, 9, 19, 40)
#6 Denver Broncos (10-6) @ #3 Indianapolis Colts (12-4) (Sun. 1PM, CBS; Locally: 3, 4, 12, 67, WRGB)
#6 Minnesota Vikings (8-8) @ #3 Green Bay Packers (10-6) (4:30PM, Fox; Locally: 25, 61, 64, WXXA)
DEADLINE: Saturday, January 8 @ 4:25PM (ET). I must receive your picks by the deadline or you will not be accounted for this week and eliminated from the playoffs.
NOTE: When you send me your picks, please indicate how much the team that you pick will win by. This will determine the tie-breakers. Example: BAL by 7. Last year was very important, since both people in the 13 vs. 4 matchup did not play. For your matchup, if there is a tie, then the closest (only the games you picked were the same) point difference will win. Example: If you both picked Rams and Packers to win and in the other games, you picked differently. Lets say that you picked STL by 7 and GB by 8 and your opponent picked STL by 9 and GB by 7. Let's say that GB won by 7 and STL won by 10, that total would be 17. The person that had 16 won.
Just a reminder: When you do your picks, please do them in one of the following formats: IND @ NE*; IND @ NE-NE.
Now with that being squared away, here are the playoff matches:
