Playoff/Standings criteria..

Hi All,

If two teams are 14-2 in the same division and have lost against each other...does anyone know a definitive playoff or div winner criteria ?

Can this be changed by custom leagues admins ? Does conf W/L &/or H2H come into it ? Does points diff come into it ?

Hey JDOM,

I have had the same issue in a couple leagues in the past. MFN follows the tiebreaking procedures of the NFL. The link is below.

I am curious to see if this follows suit. There have been 2-3 times in which there was a bug and the team not winning the tie-break was the one selected for the playoffs. JDB said he was going to fix it with the new release, which I believe has been done. If you follow the tie-break rules and it seems wrong, send JDB a pm to inform him.
