League Rules

- The regular season will run for the first 13 weeks of the NFL calendar.
- Each week, all 32 teams will compete against each other in a DFS-style contest via Draft Kings.
- For each week’s contest, teams that finish in the top 16 will receive two “horns” (points).
- Additionally, each team will square off in a head-to-head matchup against one team, with the winner of each matchup receiving one “horn”.
- The regular season will run for the first 13 weeks of the NFL calendar.

- The 32 teams will be divided into 8 divisions, with 4 divisions in each of two conferences (NFC and the AFC).
- For each new season, divisions will be as competitively balanced as possible, based on prior seasons’ data. New owners to the league will be placed into a division with someone they know whenever possible.
- At the end of the regular season, only seven teams from each conference will advance to the playoffs. The teams from each division with the most “horns” will be crowned as division champs, earning a top 4 seed.
- The three wildcard teams from each conference will be the three remaining teams with the most “horns”.
- The tie breaking procedure within a division will be as follows:

1. Record against each other
2. Record against division opponents
3. Record against common opponents
4. 50/50 Horns
5. Total Points

- The tie-breaking procedure for playoff seeding for teams not in the same division will be as follows:

1. Record against each other (if applicable)
2. Hypothetical record against each other for all 13 weeks
3. 50/50 Horns
4. Total Points

***If there are more than two teams tied in the conference standings, and two or more of the teams are in the same division, the division tiebreaker(s) will first be used for these teams before proceeding with the conference tiebreaker(s).***

- Consistent activity from all 32 owners is imperative to the success of the league, especially as interest from prospective owners has continually grown.
- Anyone who takes a zero will be placed on probation for the following season.
- Anyone who takes two zeroes in the same season, or anyone on probation who takes one zero during the season, will be subject to being replaced.
