The only reason I would entertain playing in a league where carries were rewarded is to simply make the RBs who get the heavy workload of carries slightly more valuable. I dont think its crazy either, backs like Charles and Forte are more valuable in a PPR format, so why not reward 25 carry games with a bonus or something like that. Dont reward every single carry, but if you break a certain threshold there could be a small bonus.

You seem to disagree. May I ask why PPR is more challenging?

I think they are equally as challenging. Maybe slightly in favor of standard because points are harder to come by.

Ryan Tannehill received a point for catching a pass thrown to himself last Thursday night. That's why I don't like PPR. And yes I know it's a rare occasion, but that shouldn't be worth a pt.

I love when idiots use anomalies as evidence for an argument.

Who gives a flying dog shite about how many receptions a player gets? Standard scoring like real football is all about gaining yards and turning yards into scores. PPR is a hack's game.

I'm not making an argument here dumbfrick, I'm giving my opinion on why I don't like PPR. Not my thing.

Neither is yours, which I could give two shits about.

No one else's opinion matters but your own when setting your lineup.

I play in 3 visible leagues on this board. My shite can be fact checked.

You, your "opinion" and your imaginary leagues are fools gold. But then again, no one listens to you and no one cares.

ETA: Please keep posting though. Always the entertainer.

Why can't you admit your mistakes? That's all you have to do and all of this goes away.

Just saying based on my own experience.
In the standard league I'm playing, we only have 5 bench spots and not only do I have useless players on the bench, you need to look really hard to find someone worth a shite on the wire. In the PPR, I have seven bench spots and there's still a bunch of guys that are "ownable" sitting on the wire.

Hmm, didn't think of that either. There are definitely more viable WR/RB on the WW in PPR. In that way it's much easier to replace stars with seemingly very average people.
