SpykeDudlei1 Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 UKFF NFL PREDICTIONS LEAGUE OFFICIAL SITE (click here) For those who have played before, this part of the season should be straight forward. If not, please read rules carefully to make sure you know who/what you're predicting. Firstly, on the main page you pick the results of the 4 games (as per usual). These will be stored as normal on the predictions league database. Then, you need to go to the Wildcard Weekend tab and make the selections on players, yards, points etc (explained below). This will be sent to me on a separate email. If I can, I'll post every player's predictions on this thread when they arrive with me so there is some transparency. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *Wildcard WeekendNB: Games played weekend of 7th/8th January 2012.

David Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I hope this is the correct thread, and I apologise if it's not, but what's the deal with television coverage of the post-season games? ESPN or 4 not showing any games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFFC Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 I believe so, every game now live on Sky, the Superbowl will be on both Sky and BBC though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neil is brill Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Saints did pretty well I think last night, I'm far from an expert but I'm a bit pleased with picking Colston and Brees. I think I'm gonna be way off with my guess of 1665 net yards, and regretting not picking Saints for most points, 45 will take a bit of beating.

SpykeDudlei1 Posted January 9, 2012 Author Share Posted January 9, 2012 I have to say I love the playoffs but as far as the predictions league goes this is the bit I always dread the most as unfortunately it demands much more MANUAL calculating that any other time. Â Therefore, I apologise now if there are any errors that need correcting but I've done my best to triple check everything first. Â Also, can I just point out now that unfortunately insert_name_here didn't score points on his WR & TE as it was running backs named in those positions. Whilst you can score points from a WR who rushes in the game & vice versa, you have to name an actual player for that position. Â Anyway, here are your scores from the Wildcard Weekend.....
