The final week of the year is now in the books and the playoff matchups are all set…sort of. Now I remember why I disable the playoffs, but I've come this far before and the tie-breakers are scheduled. For my purposes I'm going to play out the tiebreakers, but ignore them and go back to disabling the playoffs and manually scheduling the games.
So for our purposes the tiebreakers are already settled, and the playoffs are ready to begin. In the ABC East the Bills win the tiebreaker with the head to head advantage. The Jaguars edge the Broncos for the #3 seed in the ABC, and the Raiders win the tiebreaker over both the Steelers and Texans based on margin of victory.
Only one tiebreaker was needed in the NBC, as the Panthers won the tiebreaker against the Saints after winning both games against the Saints.
A look ahead at the playoff matchups -
