BF Astro Playoff picture is pretty interesting. Top 4 teams have locked. Next 5 teams are at 7-6 (4) and 6-7 (1) fighting it out

Matchups

1 vs 5
2 vs 8
3 vs 7
4 vs 6
9 vs 10

My assumption here if I'm understanding the breakdown is that ANY win by the 5th through 8th teams locks them into the playoffs at 8-6 alongside either a 9-5 team or 8-6 team from 1st through 4th.

The wildcard scenario here is if any of the 5th-8th teams lose (7-7) and the 9th place team wins (7-7). 9th place record

vs. 5th 1-1
vs. 6th 1-1
vs. 7th 1-0
vs. 8th 1-0

Not sure how BF breaks the ties if 5th or 6th loses and 9th wins resulting in a 1-1 record tie.

This is all especially interesting to me because I'm sitting at 5th going up against the 1st place team and could end up in that tiebreaker scenario.

All that matters is that I (6th place) get to beat David (4th place) this week. -- nm - Spawn Dec 5, 08:41 5
- I like the rules changes because they force hard franchise decisions. I'm down Burrow, Andrews, J. Taylor, and Tank Dell. - David Dec 5, 08:52 1
  - I need to take a look at my line-up. But at least I know Buffalo is playing this week. Losing my two starting WRs hurt against Woody as I got a zero - Spawn Dec 5, 08:57
- I did my part this week (Thanks Etienne!) -- nm - oblique Dec 5, 08:42 2
  - He was running toward the end zone. I looked at Kim and said, "Welp, I lose." -- nm - David Dec 5, 08:52
  - After that game with Woody (losing 148.50 to 158.95) I am ready for a normal week. - Spawn Dec 5, 08:49
