Dark Horse Rules

  • You will star three players for those players to score double points.
  • You can only have 1 star per position (QB, RB, WR, TE, K, or DEF) .
  • The goal is to get the most points total throughout the Playoffs (13 games, 14 players total).
  • The team with the highest total points at the end of the playoffs wins!

Scoring

All yardage points are solid points. There are no decimals. QBs must get to 25 yards to receive a point. RBs and WRs must get to 10 yards to get the point. Rushing and Receiving yards will be totaled and that number will determine the points (Example: 34 rushing yards and 55 receiving yards equals 89 total yards. Points = 8 points for that player).

Players do NOT recieve points for safties and 2-point conversions
