Nice write up Jack6
i would have the Space Kraken beat the Bruisers, mainly going on they beat me and i beat the Bruisers, otherwise i will have the same predictions as you. My game will be tough, i am still tinkering with the playbook which is proving difficult to get a good balance. Good luck to everyone in the playoffs |

Good luck today to all the great playoff managers and Rufio13.
Looking forward to the games, should be a fun wildcard round with competitive games across the board. |

Well an interesting set of playoff games coming up. They all seem pretty evenly balanced but I am tempted to pick the home team in each one. The one that seems closest of all to me is the Hornets Vs Marauders game so maybe tomorrow I will change my mind and pick a Hornets win but today I say Marauders.
Of course the most interesting for me is my game hosting the Knights. They were the only team to beat us this season and that by 2 points in an away game for us. This time we are at home and looking to make a statement. |

for good pick,

2020-08-04 17:00 Wildcard Playoff Burnaby Bruisers vs. Space Kraken This is quite easy to pick, even an upset could happen. Bruisers are favored, even as away team. They have much more experience and they also have a deeper squad. So Bruisers should win here, but they do in the the past few seasons sometimes drop surprisingly a game. Could this be such a game? Hard to predict such stuff, so I go with the favorite. Bruisers win. A really odd game. Kraken went 10-0 in the 1st, went behind 14-10 in the 2nd, got in front 24-14 in the 3rd and won it 31-17 in the 4th with Bruisers unable to stop Krakens passing game. jack6 wrote:
Florida Gators vs. West Geatish Warriors Warriors did sneak into the #3 spot with PD +3 against the Knights. Gators sneak into the wildcard games with a 6 point win against the Hooligans and thanks to a Raiders loss. Warriors are favored here by strength and stemina, so I go with that. Warriors win. A quite open game, but the Warriors were always able to score more in a quarter than the Gators. 3rd quarter did more or less sealed the defeat, with 14-3 in that period for the Warriors, with final score at 38-16 for the Warriors. jack6 wrote:
KAFakofers vs. Berinsfield Hornets A tough loss for KAFakofers, sending them against one of the best teams in the NC. Hornets are one of my favorites to get into the bowl and they will likely win against the underdog by a mile. Hornets win. KAFakofers did lead 20-12 starting the 4th quarter and the Hornets did create a comeback. KAFakofers were intercepted 3 times in that quarter and lost the quarter 0-23 and the Hornets won the game 35-20. jack6 wrote:
MK Saints vs. Poznan Knights Knights did all right, but scored not enough to keep the #3 spot and dropped to #4. The game is the most open of the week and we might see an upset here. Saints did fight against the Knights and lost by 4. It's hard to predict this rematch. - - Coin Flip- - Knights win. The Saints lead 17-10 at the start of the 4th quarter and the Knights were held on a field goal after a 3rd and goal on the Saints 5 yard line. Saints got intercepted after a longer drive in Knights territory and the Knights used that chance after a longer return to score a TD after a few plays. That drive did win the game for them, 20-17. The Saints tried to get the ball back in scoring range, were intercepted and the Knights did run the clock down. So wie have the divisional playoffs coming. Berinsfield Hornets vs. Midnight Marauders Rematch #1, with Marauders won it during the season and having now the home field in the playoffs. On the right day the Hornets can beat anyone. On a bad day ... they will lose the rematch. The managers are equally expierenced (Marauders are the return team of a long active manager) so this will come down likely to perperation and luck/game day performance. I prefer the Marauders here, but I guess it will be a close game. Marauders win. Poznan Knights vs. Torchwood Aliens The Knights won by 2 in the 1st game this season. Now with the rematch (#2 of this series here) the Aliens are rested and have home field. In RZA you can lose on any day, but here I gave the feeling the Knights will lose by more than 10 points. Aliens win. Space Kraken vs. Paxtang Black Panthers Rematch #3 here. Kraken lost by 8 during the season, no face one of the strongest teams in the league, and in hostile environment. Panthers did lose only once this season, against the Hornets. Since then all wins. It would be a surprise seeing them losing here, but you never know. Panthers win. West Geatish Warriors vs. Leverkusen Leopards And rematch #4 here. My team won the 1st meeting by 11. With my current setup it can happen almost everything, but chances are good my team will prevail here again. Pending some off-day of my QBs, I pick of cause my team winning. Leopards win. |

Nice work Jack6 3/4 wasn't bad
I think i was lucky against the KAFakofers, i was thinking it was lost going into the 4th quarter, then their QB had a nightmare, i think he forgot which team he was playing on and kept throwing it to my guys. Marauders will be very tough and i don't think this will go my way, the luck won't last for a 3rd game. Still i just saw a squirrel in the back garden, so off to sacrifice it to the RZA gods ("runs into garden with an axe and bag of peanuts") Last edited on 2020-08-05 17:56:14 by kharton99 |

My team has surpassed "one-and-done" in Monarchs 1 for the first time already, so any additional wins will raise a bar even higher for me for the next seasons And even if I would somehow win that game the next opponent will be tough, so my playoffs journey ends here probably. Anyway I expect that there will be 2 upsets this week. |

I don't know which game I'd pick to specifically be that upset, but I think a repeat 3/4 performance on the predictions sounds about right. I wanted to pick the Knights as that upset just so I could bring Polska Bariera back to the forefront of the forum, but my heart couldn't convince my mind that it's the one true choice. |
