NFL 2016 Playoff Preseason Pick'em!

NFL 2016 Playoff Preseason Pick'em!
Football season is almost upon us, which means it's time for our Pick'em league competitions.

This year we have a new competition type: Playoff Preseason Pick'em, which is more a game of luck and chance than anything. To enter, you must PM me your predictions for all of the playoff games, including the Super Bowl, before midnight on Wednesday 7th September 2016.

Here is a template to help you out:

Super Bowl Champion:

The order in which you choose winners for rounds with two winners (e.g. wild card, divisional) does not matter. That is to say, the AFC Divisional Round Winner #1 doesn't have to be the top seeded out of the two, or the winner of the first game, etc.

If you are having a hard time working out the brackets, I might suggest the following diagram which uses the seeding / wild card system to show you which teams play each other: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_F...f_tree.PNG

I would like to predict that the Des Moines (French for 'some of these Moines') Sleepy Guys will win every game they play.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
