i can create an identical one if there are a few interested.

 

[DaBruinz]

I hope that everyone in the leagues stays committed to them. It was disappointing when some people didn't bother to last year.

agreed.....

 

[kptmorgan04]

if anyone else is doing a league with draft times/days other than these two, please let me know. I unfortunately cant make either one and would rather be there for the draft.
Thanks

dang I was too late

I was looking for a Pats fantasy league to join. Don't you think you're penalizing the QB a bit much by dropping pass TDS to 4 pts versus every other position gets 6?

Many league's do award 6 points for TD passes. Many award 4. Most competitive money sites keep it at 4.

I've always felt that 6 was too many. It creates too much of an imbalance between the amount of points a QB scores in relation to the other positions.

Consider how many TD passes QB's throw. The average of the Top 10 is usually about 25.

Consider how many TD runs/receptions RB's and WR's score. The average of the Top 10 performers at each position is usually around 15.

It's the same thing with passing yardage. League's know better than to award the same amount of points for rushing/receiving yardage as they do for passing yardage. Most scales are usually 2.5:1 or 2:1.

It should be the same way with TD passes.

You're welcome to give it a shot.
