What site is best for hosting a NFL playoff fantasy league?

I remember doing a playoff league 2-3 seasons ago on NFL.com or CBS where you built a roster each week within a specified salary cap. However, none of the main sites (Yahoo, NFL, ESPN, etc.) seem to offer that system anymore. Does anyone use a site that offers that type of format for the NFL playoffs?

The only decent format I can find is NFL.com's "playoff challenge" but it doesn't use a salary cap.

Doing one as we speak on myfantasyleague.com. Different format. Really have to focus on getting the players from the teams most likely to make a run to the Super Bowl (Broncos/Seahawks).

Some formats double the points after each round some it makes sense to start players on byes even.

Right that's the format used by NFL.com. I'm just amazed that none of the main sites do the salary cap format anymore because it was fun.

I like Fantasy Sharks but it's one big group. ESPN is your best bet for salary cap. It'll be out today

LINK / is another site besides the one mentioned above. NFL Playoff Challenge.

This is a league where you get you get "point multiples" if you keep the same players (if their team wins).

Yep. That's why we like LINK /

You can set line ups each week, but if the NFL team loses, you lost the guy for the rest of the year. Kind of like a "last man standing" format. Won it one year riding Giants/Eli, but it's tough. Need to concentrate on a couple of teams. Doing a "6-7 team" strategy rarely works. Lot of luck involved too.
