8 pts for 400 yards? Weird league. Most are 1 pt per 20 or 25 passing yards.
The exact points aren't the point. 4 pt touchdowns for a pass but 6 for a run in some leagues. Fucking retarded.

Read: I didn't re-rank my QBs properly for the draft
This goes back years my dude. Re-ranking because of fucked scoring? Why have the fucked scoring?

My shit team was almost carried to the playoffs by Fields in one league. It was retarded. He'd score triple the other players just for operating like a rb from the qb position. Fucking retarded.

It's much easier to have a game you don't really care about on in the background than trying to focus thru the crosstalk of those family members not paying attention. Can't really emotionally invest in the game as you normally would.

So called "America's Team" should be required to be on TG, just like that other "America's Team" the Lions (?) lol.
Well..
You said America's team. Not me. I was talking about ratings.

You should research TG game history.

Makes perfect sense. A TD pass creates points for 2 players, a running TD for 1 player. Plus, you're trying to keep the top QB in line with the top RB (within reason) and the top WR, etc. Scoring is a major problem when you get to IDP however, as it is really hard to quantify with points.

Ratings doesn't impact me at all, unless they want to send me a check for watching.

If you aren't ranking according to your scoring system, you're donating money. Those anomalies in the system should be targeted, just like any game.

Precisely. I don't play FF but whatever game you play you play to the rules and you create a strategy to maximise your chances in whatever is the game situation.

In 2022 there were 19 games played on Thursday. Technically, the opening night and Thanksgiving games would reduce the official TNF tv figures to 15 games, but in real terms it's 19 games and obviously there aren't 38 different teams to fill the schedule. As it is TNF requires 30 teams to fill the 15 spots and it's unrealistic to limit every team to 1 appearance.

By 2030 I suspect the NFL will extend the season by 1 week and it will have a rule guideline requiring 10 days gap before and after mid-week games. This will allow for Wednesday Night football.

Oh yeah 60 points for 10 touchdowns or 40 points for 10 touchdowns really makes a lot of perfect sense.

No fucking shit. And incentivizing retarded behavior ruins the game.

Those damned silent movies have ruined Vaudeville. :mad2:
I had to look it up, but this is a good example. Now we are saturated with cheap retarded recorded entertainment instead of live action.
