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.

HBs should stay home to block

When an RB or FB is assigned to pass block, if there is a blitzer they will immediately sprint towards them, frequently meeting them at the LOS if they're blitzing from the secondary. This is not only silly, but it's potentially destructive.

In this play the LG inexplicably decides that they're going to block the blitzer coming through the right side of the line rather than the left, but predictably fails to run through the rest of the line to get there in time. The RB meanwhile goes flying through the line to meet the blitzing CB3. In all instances the RB should stay home, waiting to block the first man through. Generally that should be a blitzer, but could occasionally be a badly beaten block on one of the linesman. In this particular instance, the LG also needs to play his assignment smarter. He should help the LT by chipping the RDE before disengaging to take the CB3. The RB meanwhile should stay home, eventually picking up the blitzing MLB once he gets there.
