The South Sound of Music for PFL

Is it possible for a team to "pass" on a playoff game?
If it's not, the PFL Board of Directors should look into after seeing what's happening with the Clark County Vipers.
"It's terrible what's happened with the team," receiver Nick Crawford said Thursday. "Once Kyle (English) got hurt, it all seemed to fall apart."
The Vipers lost the last two games, both classified as home games, by a combined score of 129-6, and they're scheduled to play at Kitsap County Saturday in the semifinals of the Northern Division playoffs.
Clark County qualified for the playoffs based on its results from the first half of the season, when it went 5-0 in division games and 6-0 overall in PFL games. But, English's season ended June 11 during a game against Southern Oregon, and the Vipers lost 42-7 to start a four-game losing streak. In those four games, they've been outscored 211-26.
They're in the playoffs, though, because of a key win during their first half - 36-30 over the South Sound Shockers.
South Sound started the season 1-4 in division games and 1-5 overall, but closed with four straight wins. Further, the Shockers beat Yakima (23-13) and narrowly lost to both Kitsap (20-17) and South King (36-29). South Sound at Kitsap looks like an entertaining playoff game, if it were to happen.
It's an interesting dilemma for the league - should a team be allowed to let another team takes its place in the playoffs?
Crawford said job responsibilities hit the team hard at the same time English went down.
"I got a new job and just couldn't risk an injury," he said. "That happened to several other guys."
Crawford said he might drive to the game to support his teammates who make the trip, including longtime veteran quarterback Naamon Archer.
