A trifecta (pick three correctly) is worth 3 points in the Wildcard round for all Analysts.
Analyst who correctly pick Home Teams that are playing in the Wildcard round may earn Reverse PCFecta points: 2 for the best defensive effort (lowest score by an opponent) and 1 for the best offensive effort (highest score by the Home Team). The #1 and #2 seeds are not eligible for PCFecta points in the wildcard round.
In the AFC, the Titans are un-owned and will earn 1 Player Hater point as well as 1 Seeder Redux point if correctly selected to win over the Chiefs. Both the Bills and Jaguars are un-owned so no Player Hater points are possible. Correctly picking the Bills to upset the Jaguars will yield 3 Seeder Redux points.
In the NFC, all teams are owned so no Player Hater points are possible. The Falcons will award 3 Seeder Redux points in an upset of the Rams and the Panthers will earn 1 Seeder Redux point in an upset of the Saints.

Super Trifecta Bowl rules: http://www.roi2partners.com/wftl/superfecta-bowl/
A little history: STB I was won by the shameless Little Tuna with #1 Seed and Super Bowl winner Patriots. So, we tweaked the rules to make the STB II more competitive. The Bookie won with #1 Seed and Super Bowl loser Panthers. In STB III, The Bookie defended her championship with #4 Seed and NFC Championship loser Packers. If the The Game Which Shall Not Be Named was not fixed last year (!), Atwork would have won with #2 Seed Falcons. The Bookie has earned a Trifecta in the wild card round every year and that has proved to be the difference in her victories.
