Hey everyone! It's that time of year again. It's time for superbobdabest's 3rd annual football competition. For all of you who have not played in this competition I'd like to first inform you that this is first American football and it is the NFL not college. Second if you would like to join you must first watch or know enough about the teams to say which are good and which are not and you must be decently active. If so then if you would like to just ask to sign up. All of the rules, scores, news and other updates will be posted here. Please check this as often as possible. We have 10 total spots, 9 remaining.
Scoring Points:
For those of you who have been in this before there have been some changes. The way it goes is: We will do a draft. Everyone will get 3 teams (not counting further trades). Every time that team wins, you get 3 points. In the result of a tie both teams will earn 1 point. There is also Playoff Points (see below).
Draft
The way the draft works is I will write the names of the people who have signed up down on a paper. I will one at a time pull the names out of a hat. The first person I pull out of the hat will draft last during the first round. The next name I pull out will draft second to last and so on. After we pull out the order we will double up, meaning the last person of the first round will go first in the second round, and the second to last will go second and so on. For the third and final round we will repeat the first round.
Trades
You and any other player(s) are allowed to make trades at anytime. You can trade teams, points, and draft picks. Draft picks will not be allowed to be involved in a trade until the draft order is posted. Both players must post that they are okay with the trade before I make it official.
Playoff Points
Next; playoff points. Each team who makes the playoffs gets 2 points. Winning the Wild Card round or getting a bye during the Wild Card round gets you 3 points. Winning the Divisional round gets you 4 points. Winning the Conference round gets you 5 points. Winning the Superbowl gives you a whopping 6 points. If you don't like the playoff points scoring system we may take a vote about it later in the season.
Rules and Penalties
Rules are anything that will get you trouble anywhere else on AG, will get you in trouble here. If an offense is committed, depending on how ultimate the offense is you could face loss of points or even an ejection from the competition. This hasn't been a problem in the past and I don't intend it to be.
Ok I think that's it. If anyone has a question or comment just post here or on my profile. If you would like to sign up then make sure you have read the above and then just comment below. Draft order will be decided after 9 more people have signed up. Thanks everyone.
Bills and Seahawks both won for me this week. If the Seahawks don't get penalties for every other play I think they could go to the playoffs and maybe go pretty far.
@bobawesome They are one of the best, but the Cardinals had them in check the entire game. Injuries to Drew Stanton and Calais Campbell affected both offense and D. They scored right away after those, and then Peterson got hurt and they scored twice.
Receivers dropped too many passes, and misplayed big plays. Cardinals COULD have easily won, and they should have.
Hello and welcome to University of Florida last year. Injuries are sadly part of the game.
The broncos are just a better team.
I could argue with that. Both are really good teams. Haven't had time to watch enough this year to compare. The Broncos did get that IU WR though who is really good.
@superbobdabest is still not on. Also, the above blank post was my attempt to post the scores, but it got glitched. Since I had no defense against the glitch, I will leave the blank post and post the scores below:

@xeano321 Average? He will have at least 45 touchdowns and 4800 yards, if he stays healthy. In my opinion, no other AFC team has looked as explosive this year.
@bobawesome Has he even been in the game though/been thrown to much? I don't follow specific players to be honest and haven't even watched a game this year.
The Broncos are by far the best team on paper. Manning is looking at another legendary year.
I think this is like the 3rd year they are the best team on paper. You can see how much that matters.
Has he even been in the game though/been thrown to much?
No he hasn't. He may have played a few snaps here and there.

I will have to disagree with you on that. None of Denver's offensive weapons had been proven in 2012. While having an extremely talented offense in 2013, their defense played at a sub-par level. They added three pro-bowlers to their defense this offseason. 2014 is the first year that they have been the best team on paper since John Elway of the late '90s.
