Pro Football Playoff Survivor rules

  1. Each entry picks one team to win in each round of the pro football playoffs: Wild Card, Divisional, Conference Championships and Big Game.
  2. Each entry can pick a team only once in the playoffs — except for one team it may pick a second time, in a later round.
  3. Picks lock at each round’s first kickoff.
  4. A losing pick knocks the entry out.
  5. So does a missed pick.
  6. A cancelled game counts as a win; a postponed one is ruled on by the commissioner.
  7. The entry that survives the most rounds wins. Ties go to the closest guess at the Big Game’s total points, then a shared title.
