I forgot. This was the other argument that one other guy made. Not playing head to head isn't like real football. I hate to break it to you, but it isn't real football in the first place. It is a completely separate made up game that is based off of what is happening in real life. This game is different and made with its own set of rules that are entirely separate from the real game of football. I don't know why you feel like you have to settle with not trying to make it as fair and skill based as possible. There are no inherent restraints saying it has to be as superficially like real football as possible.

In real football, the saints and 49ers had a defense and actually can influence their opponent. IT makes sense that their offensive production be matched next to each other. In fantasy, two teams are just arbitrarily put next to each other, and that is called a match.

This isn't football. It's a game all its own.
