Week 20 Playoff Odds

So even though I lost my previous program to run this, this simulation shouldn't be far off. I used everyone's W% in each category as their "true" talent level at each category. Translation: This simulation is going to assume that how well you've done in the past in every category is a good indicator of how you will do in the future. So I input our current standings, and simulated the remaining 3 weeks. There's a bunch more to it, but I figure you guys just want to know your odds of making the playoffs. I ran 50,000 mock seasons and below shows how many times out of those 50,000 seasons you made the playoffs and what your W% is and so forth. Here you go. (Blank spaces mean 0% chance. If a space says 0%, then it's below .5%)

Another side note. I did not include playoff tiebreakers. So if 2 people tied for 6th place, with 5 teams already in, this program assumes you both are in the playoffs. I'm just too lazy to do more. So how about we rename this as a program that gives "Odds of Playoff Consideration ... Before Tiebreakers".
