American Fantasy Football League®
Addendum to the rules and regulations:
AFFL Playoff Challenge
Contest structure
The AFFL Playoff Challenge coincides with the NFL Playoffs. Participants will choose a fantasy
team of 10 players from all players in the NFL Playoffs. The 10 player roster will consist of
1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 Defense & Special Teams and 2 Flex players (RB, WR or TE). All
10 players will remain active throughout the NFL Playoffs, and will be chosen before the NFL Playoffs
begin. Once a player is eliminated from the NFL playoffs due to their team losing, the points for
that player will be zero throughout the rest of the contest, and that player cannot be replaced with
another player. Players will receive points according to the AFFL’s scoring system which is specified
in the Rules and Regulations. The contest winners will be determined based on the total accumulated
points from the fantasy team for the entire playoffs.
Choosing the 10 player roster
The roster can be chosen anytime after 12:00 Noon EST on Tuesday, January 1st, 2008, and before game
time of the first playoff game. After game time of the first playoff game, the roster cannot be changed.
Tiebreakers
When choosing the roster, contestants will also choose three defensive players to be used as tiebreakers
only. The three defensive players will be one linebacker (LB) or safety (S), one defensive end (DE) or
corner back (CB), and one defensive tackle (DT). The following scoring system will be used to score the
defensive players. NOTE: this scoring system is for defensive tiebreaker scoring only, and applies to
individual defensive players only. When used as a tiebreaker, the total points from all three defensive
players will be combined.
1 point for each solo tackle.
0.5 points for each assisted tackle.
3 points for each sack (partial points given for partial sack).
4 points for each interception.
2 points for each forced fumble.
2 points for each fumble recovery.
6 points for each touchdown.
8 points for each long touchdown (51+ yards)
Prizes and Entry Fee
The cost to enter the AFFL Playoff Challenge is $30. At the conclusion of the NFL Playoffs, the prizes
will be based on the final ranking of teams. The top ten percent of teams in the final ranking will receive a
prize of $100. The next ten percent will receive a prize of $50. The third ten percent will receive a prize
of $20. When determining percentages, the number will be rounded down, e.g., if there are 356 teams, ten percent
will equal 35.
