Fixed to Ruin
Come wit it now!
If I can offer a suggestion... when this happens in my other survivor pool. The remaining contestants fill out a playoff bracket. Whoever gets the most right from the bracket wins.

Another option I thought of is this:
-Pick one of the teams you have left (the reason I suggest against making every team available is that this is supposed to be the most difficult in the first place, but I also understand since not all three of you have the same amount of teams left), making sure different teams are picked.
-Tiebreakers: margin of victory, points scored, oddest game score

I was in one I found on Twitter ran by a sports radio guy in Peoria, IL. 2 guys went all 17 perfect and split $1920.

Ok, lets break this tie with a full re-set. Hopefully my 2 fellow competitors see this and make picks in time.
I am going with Seattle over Detroit for the AFC Wild Card weekend.

I'm not trying to act like the rulemaker here, there's no problem with coming to an agreement. But the reason I suggested against a full reset is that no one is likely to use one of the wild cards next week. Expanding the options isn't conducive for breaking the tie, you're making it more likely that the tie isn't broken, especially now since two of the three people took the same team. The purpose behind breaking a tie is to end the game.
Of course now the Steelers will lose and it won't matter

OK I'm going to use some unorthodox strategery (TM W. Bush) for the divisional round and hope it pays off later on.

It looks like I'm going to have to pick Green Bay next weekend. Sigh...
Edit: I'm not a Cowboys fan. I just don't trust the Packers' D.

Ok, I'm ready to bring this to a dramatic conclusion & not drag it out to the Super Bowl.
Assuming Green Bay is your "final answer" (TM Regis) I will take a shot with Atlanta as my official pick.
Best of luck, Rangerssharks414!

Thanks.
Yeah, I'm kinda screwed since I think New England will win it all. So, I have to pick Green Bay.

Congrats, PanthersPens! I thought New England and Atlanta were going to win, but I had to pick Green Bay since if they both did win, I'd have no teams left for next week. Oh well.

Yeah I was thinking about that, so I figured we should just end it this week & to be honest, I really thought GB would win, but since you took them first I "settled" for Atlanta!
