Hey, AE...question. In the playoff thing, do you pick a new roster each week? And do we each get the 50 points every week, or what?

Yes, and yes. You'll have to set your roster 3 times; Wild Card Weekend (this weekend), Divisional Weekend, and then Championship Weekend + the Super Bowl. (After the second week, you'll want to fill your team with players who you think will be in the Super Bowl.)

I won again!

Perfect, thanks AE!

And no we shouldn’t have ‘keepers’ that’s not fair.

I take it multiple people can pick the same players.

My Wildcard Week lineup:

Drew Brees, Eli Manning
Pierre Thomas, Mark Ingram
Hakeem Nicks, Marques Colston
Jimmy Graham
John Kasay
Saints D

Exactly $50

I have...
QB: Drew Brees, Matthew Stafford
RB: Darren Sproles, Michael Turner
WR: Calvin Johnson, Eric Decker
TE: Brandon Pettigrew
K: John Kasay
D/ST: Bengals

Mine is also exactly $50.

I've got:

QB: Drew Brees, Big Ben
RB: Arian Foster, Michael Turner
WR: Marques Colston, Julio Jones
TE: Brandon Pettigrew
K: John Kasay
D/ST: PIT

And now I am 50 too. This should be good.

QB: Drew Brees, Matthew Stafford
RB: Ahmad Bradshaw, Michael Turner
WR: Marques Colston, Victor Cruz
TE: Jimmy Graham
K: Shaun Suisham
D/ST: Giants

I won! Sort of.

The website has me listed first, so I won this week.

Only because you’re alphabetically first!
I have the same points, so I say I won.

If you change your name to Aaron Bookworm, maybe they'll let you win this week!

Just realized I got no points for Ingram last week because he was injured. It’s amazing I still tied for first.



My Divisional Week lineup:

Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers
John Kuhn, Darren Sproles
Jordy Nelson, Marques Colston
Jimmy Graham
John Kasay
Saints D

Exactly $50



The salary cap is stupid, it took me forever to get a usable lineup because I kept going 8 cents over.

I dropped to third. My roster was all Packers and Saints, both of which lost.

My Conference Week and Super Bowl lineup:

Eli Manning, Joe Flacco
Brandon Jacobs, Ray Rice
Hakeem Nicks, Victor Cruz
Travis Beckum
Billy Cundiff
New York Giants D

Exactly $50

I stayed in third.

Going to be missing three players for the Super Bowl.

After winning the regular season, American Eagle went on to win the postseason as well.

Boooo!

I did terrible. That horrible salary cap made it hard.

Congrats, AE!

How do you play this? Could you post the rules AE?

Yeah, the salary cap was ridiculous, I couldn’t get the team I wanted for the final lineup.

Finished in third place.

I'm afraid the season is over. If we decide to play again next year, I'll be sure to post the rules.
