2025/2026 Decathlon: Event Summary: Football

Status: Locked

RULES: FOOTBALL

Q1: Regular Season
All NFL teams have been seeded; select eight teams totaling no more than 44 seed points.

Your eight teams will earn points as follows:
...7 pts for each win (10 for a playoff win)
..20 pts for a division title
..10 pts for a wildcard berth
..20 pts for a Super Bowl berth
..30 pts for a Super Bowl win

Picks lock Thu 9/5 5p Pacific, at the first kickoff

Q2: Playoffs
A total of 14 NFL teams make the playoffs - 7 in each conference. The teams are seeded as follows:
NFC
(1) Lions
(2) Eagles
(3) Buccaneers
(4) Rams
(5) Vikings
(6) Commanders
(7) Packers

AFC
(1) Chiefs
(2) Bills
(3) Ravens
(4) Texans
(5) Chargers
(6) Steelers
(7) Broncos

Pick 5 teams whose seeds add up to *at least* 16 points. Note that your 5 teams can be from any conference. For example, you could take the 1st seed from both conferences, a 2nd seed, and both 6th seeds, and your entry would be valid (1 + 1 + 2 + 6 + 6 = 1). Or, you could take the 1st through 4th and the 6th seed all from one conference, and that would be valid (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 6 = 16). Reminder that the NFL is not a true bracket, 2nd round matchups will be dependent on the remaining teams' seeds.

Your five teams will earn points as follows:
...10 pts for each win in the Wild Card round
...20 pts for each win in the Divisional round
...25 pts for each Conference Championship win
...30 pts for a Super Bowl win

Playoff Picks lock at kickoff of the first game, Sat Jan 11 at 130p Pacific. This is an elimination event, no late picks allowed. If you miss the deadline, you will receive points equal to the last place team who did submit.
