4 Y's, 10 E's... my math says...

that if 4 Teams have the Division locked up, and 10 Teams are already Eliminated, the only 2 Teams left without a Letter should be showing an X right now.

Which happens to be Kansas City and Denver (myself).

Now, I don't have all the math and tie breakers, but if our Standings are right I'm just wondering how you can have 4 Y's and 10 E's without 2 X's.

So I'm not sure how much faith to put into these standings... if some of the E's aren't really E's.

The math does seem a little off sometimes. I have no idea how my crappy team managed to get a first round bye though.

The playoff picture shows Denver 5 seed, KC 6 seed with no team in the hunt!

They have my team (Pitt) as eliminated, but if I win and KC loses, we both end up with the same record but my team would have a better conference record. Seeing how we didn't play each other there is no head to head, so shouldn't I get into the playoffs instead?

Record against common opponents plays into there somewhere.

So my amazing DE Phillip Bolden has been injured (and really still is). So I sat him out the final 3 Games of the Season... and some how went 3-0 in that span to clench.

It's the Play Offs, so I trot him out there... and he grabs 4 Sacks in the Victory (while Donald Klinger steals the show with a Safety) in part of a 10 Sack Defensive Effort for my boys.

This is only the 2nd Play Off Victory in Denver in MFN-7, and I'm very fortunate to have them both. Buffalo coming up, not sure how we managed to meet each other this deep... but no turning back now.
