How can we make Fantasy Football better?

← Fantasy Football

Playoffs - Two week playoff matchups.

This feature would allow commissioners to implement 2 week long playoff matchups for their league. For example, in a 4 team playoff, the first round of the playoffs would run for weeks 14 and 15 and then the Championship would be weeks 16 and 17. Currently, this feature is not available to commissioners.

    My league voted on this years ago, would love to implement it.

  • C L commented  ·   ·  Report

    how is this not an option? it's the only reason we chose ESPN over Yahoo Fantasy this year.

  • Lex Moore commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is the only thing ESPN does better than Yahoo. How is this not an option? It's critical for fair fantasy basketball payoffs given how sporadic the NBA schedules are.

  • Brent nyteryder3 commented  ·   ·  Report

    This is imperative and we would love to have this feature rather than having to do it manually. Please do this on your next update.

    I totally agree with the comment below from David Palefsky, exact same situation. I know ESPN offers the two-week option.
    We'd prefer to remain with Yahoo, as we've been with them for a long time, but they need to keep up.

  • nick zafirson commented  ·   ·  Report

    Ditto this request-I have wanted a 2 week championship for years!

  • David Palefsky commented  ·   ·  Report

    We have an 8 team league that plays each opponent exactly twice in the first 14 weeks. With the addition of week 18, we would like to have the semifinals remain in week 15 and have a two-week championship cumulative round in weeks 16 and 17.

  • Bob Thompson commented  ·   ·  Report

    We want to have a single week tournament for ALL teams in our league after the playoffs are done (week 18). The CBS fantasy football site allows it's members to do this and we would like Yahoo to do the same.

  • Chris Pengelly commented  ·   ·  Report

    Agreed, with the extra week being added in 2021, the option to have a two-week championship using combined points would be great.

  • Dan Speicher commented  ·   ·  Report

    With the extra week this year my league wants to keep playoffs the same except make the championship matchup be two weeks (weeks 16 and 17). Doesn’t seem to be possible at the moment which seems like a missed opportunity.

  • Jack Bleiweis commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please let us choose how our playoffs are formatted. I want to make the semi finals 1 week in week 15 and then the finals 2 weeks in week 16 and 17! Why can't I do this now?

  • Jack Bleiweis commented  ·   ·  Report

    We have an extra week of NFL football, give us the option to have the semi finals in week 15 and the finals be the total combined points from weeks 16 and 17

  • Dan Mccarthy commented  ·   ·  Report

    I want to be able to getting scoring for two weeks and combine the scores to determine a champion. The NFL added a 17th game this year. Since we get an extra week the idea came up for a two week championship. Can we get this as an option?

  • Michael Simons commented  ·   ·  Report

    At a bare minimum, 2 week match-ups should be an option. There are several improvements that could be made including much more customization. But having an option for a 2 week playoff matchup has been on this forum since at least 2014... it can't possibly take 7 years to develop that bit of code.

  • Bernhard Samuel commented  ·   ·  Report

    NFL has 17 games now through 18 weeks. Fantasy needs to adjust. I think a 6-team playoff plays:
    Round 1- Week 14
    Round 2- Week 15
    Final- Weeks 16 & 17 (most total points in those two weeks wins)

    This preserves the 13 week regular season records for long standing leagues and makes the finals all the more interesting.

  • Tim Anderson commented  ·   ·  Report

    For a 12 team league, wish to have 4 teams in each bracket - Championship, Consolation & Toilet Bowl. Also allow for playoff rounds to be cumulative score over two weeks - e.g. Weeks 13+14, and Weeks 15+16

  • Tim Anderson commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please provide the option to allow for two week cumulative score during the playoffs, like ESPN & NFL.com, among others, do. Could be Weeks 13-16 or Weeks 14-17.

  • Tim Polacek commented  ·   ·  Report

    2 week playoffs are long overdue for playing in Yahoo FFL. Semis in weeks 13/14 and finals in weeks 15/16 would be ideal, hope we can get it for 2021.

  • Michael Rettberg commented  ·   ·  Report

    Since the NFL has expanded to 7 teams making the playoffs, Yahoo should give leagues the same option of being able to choose 6, 7, or 8, etc. playoff teams rather than just 4, 6, 8
