BSB NFL Playoff Challenge: The Divisional Round Recap & Title Scenarios

Well, three home teams won this weekend, with the only surviving team from the Wild Card Round being…the Jets?!?!?  The Chargers loss to the J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets did throw a wrench in the works of the Challenge this year.  All in all, O’Neill wins the round and puts himself in a position to possibly win the whole thing.  Josh and David also have big rounds, but Josh’s first round was slightly better and they have similar picks moving forward, so Josh is in a very good position to win the whole thing, while David is in a good position to finish second, but can’t win it.  Alexi had a nice recovery from a rough Wild Card round, but his title hopes have been dashed.  Scott also had a nice weekend, but he, too, is eliminated from title contention.  Waters, despite a tough weekend, is still alive to possibly split the title.  Doogan lost his cash cow, Arizona and, therefore, his dreams of winning the first BSB NFL Playoff Challenge.  And, Bry and Ina both got hammered this weekend (oh, and we did poorly in this Challenge, too), so they are both out of the running.

THIS ROUND:
O’Neill – 36
Josh – 35
David – 34
Alexi – 32
Scott – 31
Waters – 27
Doogan – 25
Bry – 24
Ina – 23

OVERALL:
Josh – 145
Waters – 143
David – 141
O’Neill – 141
Scott – 131
Alexi – 131
Doogan – 118
Bry – 111
Ina – 110

TITLE SCENARIOS:
Now, with 4 teams left, there are only 8 possible scenarios for this weekend.  And, there is a chance that the Challenge title is clinched before the Super Bowl.

If Indianapolis wins the Super Bowl:  Josh wins the Challenge
If the N.Y. Jets win the Super Bowl:  Josh wins the Challenge
If Minnesota wins the Super Bowl:  O’Neill wins the Challenge
If New Orleans beats Indianapolis in the Super Bowl:  Josh wins the Challenge
If New Orleans beats the N.Y. Jets in the Super Bowl:  Josh and Waters tie for Challenge title

This means that Josh can clinch the Challenge title this weekend if the two home teams win.
