In most playoff formats, teams are formed before the first week and there's a 50/50 chance of making to week 3 and after week 3 the winner is already decided. For most teams, outside of weeks 1 and 2, there is not too much entertainment value.
Our alternative format gives most owners a chance to win right through the last minute of the Super Bowl. More opportunity for four weeks of entertainment value. First recall, 8 NFL teams participate in the first and second weeks, 4 NFL teams in week three and 2 teams in week four, the Big Game.
Owners would pick a NEW 8 player lineup (or use 1-2 flex) each week over the entire 4 weeks of the NFL playoffs. Constraints are: An owner cannot use a player more than once over the 4 weeks. The same player can be used by different owners, so as an example all owners could use Manning in week 2, but then Manning would be done for all owners. For the first two weeks, an owner will use 1 player for each NFL team playing that week. For week 3, two players for each team NFL playing that week and for the Big Game, 4 players per team.
Additionally, each owner has an opportunity to get weekly bonus pts (perhaps 25-40pts total each week) in a pick the winners format and closest to the combined score (or over/under).
You can see this format keeps most involved each week and the excitement going to the very last minute of the Super Bowl.
