News and Notes
A few quick reminders as we open up the season on Wednesday…
Nine teams will make the playoffs this year. The four division winners and the top five wild card teams. The tiebreaker for any tie is overall winning percentage.
Picks must be made by emailing nflfunnymoney@gmail.com. Please use the following format when picking:
Franchise name
Amount – Team
Amount – Team
The official lines will be posted on this website on Wednesday morning. Once they are up, you can make your selections. Because of the Thursday opener, picks must be made by Wednesday night at midnight Eastern time in order to be considered on time. Late picks must be made by the opening kickoff of the Thursday night game. If you don’t make picks by the opening kickoff of the game, -$600 for the week.
Once all the picks are in for the week, a PDF will be posted on the site with the entire league’s picks.
