Who needs the NCAA Final Four bracket challenge. This is the more challenging NFL Playoff Bracket Challenge. Pick the winner of every game each week all the way to the Super Bowl, before the playoffs start, here. Deadline to play is before the first playoff game begins.
Since the NFL does it's playoffs by seeding, matchups after the Wild Card round are unknown until the wild card games are completed, making choosing the subsequent week's winners even more difficult. Nonetheless, make sure to choose your winners wisely as it can throw your whole bracket off. Basically, whichever teams you have advancing in each round is what you will be given correct points for if in fact they advance to the subsequent rounds.
