Was there any discrepancy you saw in your franchise that didn't follow the NFL Tiebreaker procedure?
I have an instance. In my league, the Cardinals are 13-2 and the Seahawks are 13-1-1. The Seahawks are undefeated in the division and won both head-to-head matchups against the Cardinals.
Assuming both win in week 17, the Seahawks will have a better record and the first two tiebreakers. If the Cardinals lose and the Seahawks win, the Cardinals will be 13-3 and the Seahawks will be 14-1-1, clearly the division champion.
However, the standings show that the Cardinals clinched the division and home field advantage in the playoffs.
- EA_Blueberry@davidallen1872 That doesn't seem right from what I'm looking at. It looks like the Seahawks should have won. Will get this tracked down, thanks for reporting it!
Thank you.
In previous years, the tie breaker for franchise was alphabetical order, but that doesn't appear to be the case here.
Is there a strength of schedule calculator in the franchise mode?
- EA_Blueberry@BaseballPlayerNR In this situation I don't believe it has it do with strength of schedule but more in the lines of the Seahawks having half a win more than the Cardinals and also going undefeated in the division.
I'm not sure if there's a strength of schedule built into tiebreakers for Madden. My inclination is no, but I can try to find out.The reason I ask about strength of schedule is I just ran into a situation in a cloud franchise league where me and another guy were both in the same division. We were both 11-5, both had the same divisional record and conference record, but he made it to the playoffs and I didn't so I am trying to figure out how I didn't make it.
