Five Days Remain To Get in Playoff Challenge

2021 Playoff Bracket Is Set

'21-22 World Famous FFPC Playoff Challenge Awaits You

What a Week 18 it was, players, and now we know the full NFL Playoff bracket for the 2021-22 World Famous FFPC Playoff Challenge. Don't forget that you'll be able to apply your regular season winnings in your account right now to the Playoff Challenge as well.

The Challenge will have 12 starting roster spots rather than the 10 starting roster spots in a typical FFPC starting lineup. The two added starting roster spots will both be FLEX spots (Flex can be RB, WR or TE). With fourteen total playoff teams and 12 starting roster spots, each entrant will need to fade two teams, which has always been the case for the FFPC Playoff Challenge.

The main details of the Challenge are listed below:

  • Entry fee: $200 per team
  • Contest capped at a maximum of 7,250 entries
  • $500,000 Grand Prize
  • $1,289,250 in guaranteed prizes paying down to 850th place
  • Contest runs from the start of the NFL playoffs through the Super Bowl
  • Each team consists of 12 players in an FFPC starting roster format (plus two additional flexes)
  • Each team chooses from 14 playoff teams but only 1 per team
  • All rosters will be locked on Saturday, January 15th at 4:35 pm ET
  • No roster adjustments will be allowed even for games starting later
  • For more details, see the full rules and payout structure on the contest page linked right here.

2022 FFPC Dynasty Teams For Sale

Rubin Is Overall Pros Vs Joes Champ

Big props go out to the FFPC "Joe" Eric Rubin as his Jungle Catz squad was able to take on all comers and win the overall title in the 2021 FFPC Pros Vs. Joes Challenge. His 2,640.45 score in this 18-round Best Ball Slim competition was good enough to win it all, more than 100 points ahead of second-place and fellow Joe JC Gifford.

Drafting out of the one spot in the only slow draft of Pros Vs. Joes extravaganza, Rubin made some crucial picks that helped propel him to the crown:

  • Justin Jefferson (3.01)
  • Mark Andrews (4.12)
  • Cooper Kupp (5.01)
  • Deebo Samuel (9.01)
  • Amon-Ra St. Brown (15.01)
  • Darrel Williams (16.12)

The FFPC Joe tandem of Brad Petri and Darren Larson took third place overall, with the top Pros--Curtis Patrick from RotoViz and Ryan McDowell from Dynasty League Football--placing fourth. FFPC Joe John Shaw took fifth place overall while finishing as the runner-up in his league to Rubin.

Rubin, Gifford, Petri/Larson and Patrick/McDowell all won 2022 FFPC Main Event entries for winning their individual leagues along with FFPC Joes Jeff Tirabassi and last year's overall co-champ Hudson "Kern" Reeve and Pro David Dodds from Alien Fantasy. The Joes once again dominated the top of the leaderboard with seven of the top eight finishers overall. Here are the top ten teams from 2021 (* denotes individual league winner):

  1. JOE - Jungle Catz 2640.45*
  2. JOE - JC Gifford 2532.5*
  3. JOE - Frying Pan Inc. 2526.1*
  4. PRO - Curtis Patrick - RotoViz.com 2520.55*
  5. JOE - John Shaw 2469
  6. JOE - Jeff Tirabassi 2457.15*
  7. JOE - Curtis Hirsch 2449.25
  8. JOE - Nick Thompson 2441.65
  9. PRO - Michael Leone - EstablishTheRun.com 2440.05
  10. PRO - Evan Silva - EstablishTheRun.com 2430.05

Congrats to all the champs in each of these leagues and a huge THANK YOU to Darren Armani from FantasyMojo.com who once again did a great job of assembling 84 awesome players who waged some great competition throughout the 2021 season.
