The more teams you add to the payout, the more finely the pot gets cut up.


You seem to be on board with the idea of adding more teams to the payout.


If people agree that incentivizing bids is more important than rewarding Super Bowl teams, then it's just a question of how far it should be taken. I posted an example of taking it to the extreme just to illustrate the point.

How many non-Super Bowl teams have to get a payout before the name of the game needs to be changed from 'Super Bowl Auction"?


At percentage takeout it's too much. How much did the last auction total? I don't think ~1k fg would be a sizable loss, especially if said fg was recuperated from higher bids at the mid level.

I like this idea. Maybe 250-500 though.


Might be too much. I don't want it to be a massive chunk out of the pot.

So if it's closer to that again 1642.69 per average, total pot would be 52,566.08, if we take out, say 500 fg for each team that made playoffs (as incentive to but borderline teams), we can do a win system in the playoffs too.

It would be 12 teams, so 6k from the pot, leaving 46k to the SB winner. Then use the 6k as incentives for playoffs.

200 fg if your team loses first round - 5200 left
600 fg if your team loses second round - 2800 left
1400 fg if your team loses afc/nfc championship - 0 left

Then it's wta for the Superbowl, loser would get nothing unless we move another small portion (2500 fg maybe) for the sb loser.

Just an option if we wanna divvy the pot for incentives


Solid napkin math. Definitely something worth considering I think, or at least testing. I don't want to take too much away from the pot, though.

yeah i'm not sure watering the pot down is a good idea at all, considering it is a superbowl pot after all, but if we do, that could be a decent way to do it i think

If you only do it for the teams that don't make the SB its only 2 or 4k out of 50ishk

Edit/ may even pay for itself

I really like the idea of paying out to as many people as possible. Maybe even doing it so each team that makes the playoff, gets something.

Eliminated in wildcard = 1% of total pot = 4%
Eliminated in divisional round = 2% of pot = 8%
Eliminated in Conference Championship = 10% of pot = 20%
Eliminated in Superbowl = 18% of pot
Superbowl winner = 50% of pot

The total pot was 52,566 last season, respectively, these would be the hypothetical payouts if the pot was the same.

Wildcard loser = 525.66 fg x4 = 2102.64 in total prizes
Divisional loser = 1051.32 fg x4 = 4205.28 in total prizes
Conference loser = 5256.60 = 10513.20 in total prizes
SB loser = 9461.88
SB winner = 26283

I think this would get A LOT of people interested as even having your team make it to the divisional round would in most circumstances pay for your entry.

What do you guys think?
