    Simple playoff format. The divisional winner with the best overall record plays the wild card team in one semi and the two other divisional winners play each other in the other semi final. Both these games are the week after the regular fantasy season ends which is week 15 of the NFL season.

    The winners of those face off in the final the next week, week 16 of the NFL season.

    The post season is the one part of the game that I think is a bit weak. A lot of the time you end up with teams resting players as they are assured of the playoffs. Happened me last year but I suppose it's hard to know how you can change it unless you shorten the season.

    I'd start Cassel this weekend over Romo. Pats and Cassel have improved and they will be out for revenge over the Dolphins after what happened the last time they played.

    Lads if anyone is interested in a trade let me know.

    I have some good RBs and WRs and I'm looking for a good Dst and TE (not sure there are any of these this year!)

    The NFL.com league is one of the better formats for handling the post season problem as they don't play fantasy games in week 17. For the most part, teams are still competing in weeks 15 and 16. Obviously there are some players rested but it's not on the same level as week 17.

    True enough but......
    I've gone with Romo - because Dallas are up against the 49ers who are... well... s h 1 t e.....

    Hope that doesn't come back to haunt me now.

    Ten point difference, but looks like you'll get away with it unless Brees pulls me out of the fire. Meant to stick in the Bills defence this week just for the sake of it, but other than that if Dallas Clarke does anything you'll be fine.
    The above is all opinion and based on personal experience. Unless stated otherwise it is not a dig at anybody, well probably none of you lot.

    Clark didn't do a whole pile - 18pts in it with Brees to play - i reckon there'll only be a point or two in it either way. Brees has had some excellent numbers this season - MVP type stuff - but the Packers defence is a tough prospect - id still expect him to Pass for 250 odd yards and maybe a touchdown or two so it could depend on turnovers.

    To be fair i'm a Pats fan - but even the most optimistic Pats fans wouldn't have guessed that he would have thrown for 800 yards in two weeks against the Jets and the Dolphins.

    I wonder what odds a Jets v Giants Superbowl is now?

    You were had, this season he hasn't even been able to log in to make changes. Ends up with Turner churning out 30 points a week almost!!

    Come on Drew, 19 will do it, what's the odds he comes in with 18 and I get my second tie of the season!

    Good morale boosting win for me yesterday over the Wagons, ended yet another slide that I'd been going through. Playoffs are beyond reach in this league.

    As usual my other nfl.com team is faring much better, fourth best record overall. I'm a game outside the playoffs though because the 1st and 3rd best records are in my division. I've a game against the team currently holding the wildcard this week.

    How are we looking play offs wise Stu?

    Jones Drew only came up with 4 pts. Nice one, another win by the skin of my nuts.
