Awesome Finish: four teams can earn 1 wildcard spot tonight

Team 1 has 896.6 total pts and Andre Johnson tonight

Team 2 has 892.4 total pts and Tom Brady tonight

Team 3 has 880.0 total pts and Gostkowski/Welker tonight

Team 4 has 902.8 total pts and no remaining players

 

All teams are 7-6 right now. Team 4 is 1.4 pts ahead of Team 1 this week and needs Andre to not reach 28 total yards to even have a chance via total pts. Teams 2 and 3 will both win tonight, but need to finish with the highest point total among the four listed.

 

0.03 pts/passing yard

0.05 pts/receiving yard

0.06 pts/rushing yard

4 pt passing TD

6 pt rushing/receiving TD

 

Who wins? After you all tell me, I will let you know which one is me.

Oddly enough, we have a pretty exciting finish as well, but guys are complaining about it.

 

I have it set up that the four seeds are determined as follows:

Best record

Highest total points among remaining

Best record among remaining

Highest points among remaining.

 

tiebreaks being the opposite (most points in record ties, record in points ties)

 

Which, I realize, is hardly my invention.

 

At any rate, we've got two teams who will end 10-4 and two others who will very likely finish 9-5 and I'm taking crap from every direction about my "crazy system".

 

See, neither of the two guys who will finish 9-5 has scored many points (8th and 9th out of 10), so at most one of them makes it. In fact, there's an outside chance that neither do if a team who is almost certainly going to end up 7-7 scores enough to move into 2nd in points scored (one of the 10-4 teams is also the high points man, the other is 27 pts ahead of the 7-7 dude but is done while 7-7 dude has Ridley going). If he does, then the 2nd 10-4 takes the 3rd seed and a 4th team in the mix who is 8-6 but has scored more than either of the 9-5 teams (but most likely less than the 7-7 team) would take the final spot.

 

So, I've got one guy in particular who thinks it should always be about record except for tie breaks having a fit about the fact that one or maybe both 9-5 teams don't make it. I've got the 8-6 team pissed that he's likely out of it despite scoring way more than the two teams ahead of him.

 

What's worse, they're actually complaining about how much is at stake tonight. That, there's all these scenarios when it should have been cut and dry by now. After all, there's yet another scenario if Ridley completely lays an egg tonight (like scores less than 1.5). Then, high scoring 7-7 dude actually finishes behind the 8-6 team in total points and loses the 4th seed to him.
