This league has just begun! Because this is a new league, it will be a few days before the allocation draft begins (the countdown timer above shows when the first pick will fire). This is a great time to get a team as you will be able to build it from scratch! If you don't want to wait for the draft, though, check to see if there is a team in an established league that you can take over.

NOTE: As of the last sim, this league was under the minimum 20% capacity. Invite your friends to join MyFootballNow to keep this league alive! Then send them to this league to become the owner of a team! The league will expire at 8/01/2025 8:00 am.

How to target a TE

If a team has a dominant TE, how do I go about making him the primary threat in certain situations?

The pass targets are sorted by priority based on the depth chart (WR#1, WR#2, TE, RB, WR#3) as well as the depth of the passing routes (if it is a "short pass" play and WR#1 runs a deep pattern, he will have a lower priority than the shallow routes). So you might see if you can find some short passes where the WR's are running deeper routes and the TE running shallow routes in your playbook.

There's not really a way to be more specific than that, although I would love to develop more rich gameplanning options like that - which would of course have to be countered with defensive strategies to stop it.

Thanks

I've wondered this myself.
