Football Pool playoff help......

[mclem10011]

I'm in charge of a rather small Football Pool at work. Only 5 of us involved, I have never ran one before. So far we've just done weekly picks, haven't kept track of who has the most wins, or points or anything like that. So, that brings me to my need for assistance. Does anyone have thoughts on how I should format the playoffs? Especially being only a 5 player pool, you can't just go with weekly picks, cuz everyone would want the same teams. I'd like to break it down into categories somehow, such as sacks, TD passes, fumbles recovered, etc.etc. Anyone's thoughts would be much appreciated. Thanks all.

You could do a fantasy football playoff pool. Pretty much the same format as regular fantasy football, but just with the playoff teams. If you pick a guy and his team loses, then you are done at that spot and so on. Or you could just do selecions with the lines. As long as you use the lines, the guys shouldn't all be on the same teams. If you want to twist it up a bit then,
Pick a team with the spread and pick the over/under. If they get both right then you could give an additional point. you would have a total of 11 games for 22 selections.
