Scoresheet Fantasy Football Overview

With Scoresheet Fantasy Football you'll play a game with the most complete scoring system you’ll find anywhere. Our formulas are designed to reflect a player's real football value, and are derived from established mathematical models of football. For instance, in Scoresheet Football, a running back who gains 100 yards on just 20 carries will earn more points than one who gains 110 yards on 30 carries. And unlike other ‘fantasy football’ games, in Scoresheet Fantasy Football individual defensive players are drafted and do score points!

No other fantasy football game plays at this level. And the best part is that our computer does all the extra stat work - all you have to do is enjoy the game. It is no harder for you to play a more realistic game such as ours, it is just more fun! Unlike some fantasy systems, in Scoresheet Fantasy Football you will play in real leagues, with a real draft. Scoresheet is not a 'pool' game or national 'contest', where every owner in your league can have Tom Brady on his team. At Scoresheet, you will be competing against, and talking trades with, real football fans like yourself, and not just dealing with a computer.

Considering how many hours you spend following football each year, you owe it to yourself to play the very best game you can.

It will turn you into a total football fan!

Fantasy football leagues

Welcome to Scoresheet Fantasy Football, a fantasy football game in which you own and operate your own team of NFL players. As a Scoresheet owner, you will draft a team of NFL players, make real trades with other owners in your league, pick up free agents, and decide who plays and who sits each week. You will play head-to-head games against the other teams in your league as you compete for the title.

Before the season begins you will draft individual players from throughout the NFL, putting together your own team. Then, each week of the NFL season, your team will play one game against another team in your league, scoring points based on your players' actual stats from that week's NFL action. As you watch one of your players complete a pass, rush for a big gain, record a sack, or make an interception, you'll know he is also scoring points for your Scoresheet Fantasy Football team. Preliminary game scores are posted to the web each Monday before the that night's game is played so that you know where you stand.


All fantasy games are NOT created equal!

At Scoresheet, we don't simply give points for touchdowns and yards gained. Instead, we offer a unique fantasy game which reflects virtually everything that happens on the field. You will even draft and play individual defensive players, earning points for their sacks, stuffs, interceptions, tackles and assists. To add to the realism, we also take away points for incomplete passes and interceptions.

Our top priority is service. With 25+ years of experience in the fantasy sports field you can count on us to be there all season long. Every week of the season you'll receive complete reports that include: standings, scores, team and individual stats, trade reports and lists of top undrafted players. Our drafting system for individuals gives you the most flexibility and control possible. You can draft on the web, using a system where you can adjust your draft list as often as you like - between every pick if you want. Weekly results are both posted to the web and sent out (by e-mail or postal mail - your choice) promptly each week.

While playing Scoresheet Fantasy Football you will follow the NFL like never before, since every NFL game could involve players on your team. You'll even appreciate your favorite team's strategies more, because you'll know all the opposing players better. We feel certain that playing Scoresheet Fantasy Football will make the upcoming NFL season your most enjoyable football season ever.


Let The Fun Begin!

Join alone and we will place you in a league with other individual owners, giving you a chance to compete against some of football's biggest fans. Or join with friends, and you can talk trades and assert bragging rights whenever you get together. If you know enough fellow fans to form a complete league, you can hold your own draft - the best party of the year!

If you join alone or with just a couple of friends we will place you in a 12-team league with other individual team owners. 12 team leagues have 3 divisions, with 4 teams in each division. The three division winners plus two wild-card teams (the other teams with the best records) qualify for the playoffs, played during weeks 15, 16, and 17 of the NFL season.

If you join with friends and want to play just among yourselves, you can form a complete league of any size, though we suggest having at least 6 and at most 16 teams. Owners who form their own complete league can either hold their own draft, or have us run their draft


Take part in a real draft

Fantasy football game

As soon as we receive your team order we will send you a draft packet that includes a list of the NFL's projected starters at every position (except offensive line). We will include each player's point rating from last season; both season totals and points per game played will be included, along with each player's age and position.

You will draft a team of 6 offensive starters, 6 defensive starters, a kicker, a punter, an NFL kick return team, and 15 backup players. If you join alone or with a small group that wants to be part of a larger league, we will place you in a league and run your league's draft. Unlike contests or pools this is a real draft - a player can only be on one team in each league!

The draft order will be determined randomly, and whomever picks first in round one will pick last in round two.

We offer a web based draft system where you can change your draft list between every round of the draft, giving you the same control over the draft as if you were doing a live in-person draft. A description of our web draft system can be found at the following link: web drafting explanation

The first web draft leagues will be formed and start drafting in late July, and we will continue forming new web draft leagues thruout August. But the earlier you join the sooner you can begin enjoying the fun of drafting a team. No matter when you join, your final picks in the web draft will be in the first week of September, when NFL teams have finalized their rosters.

If you have a complete league of owners, you can choose to do your own live draft, holding it whenever you like. And once again, we will be forming web draft leagues throughout July and August, but the earlier you join the sooner you can begin enjoying the 2012 season.

1 Tight End

1 Kicker & 1 Punter

1 Flex player (an extra RB, WR, or TE)

1 NFL kick return team


Realistic Fantasy Football

Fantasy football

The flex position allows you to decide which additional starter is best for your team. That can be an additional running back, wide receiver or even another tight end. This gives you the same kind of lineup flexibility as the pros!

Your backups will play if your starter is hurt, or does not play for his NFL team that week. In Scoresheet Fantasy Football you do NOT have to turn in a new depth chart each week - injuries and byes are taken care of automatically by your designated backups. We even substitute for players who are injured during the game!

Each week we'll hold a free agent draft of available players, with the team that has the worst record choosing first, second worst drafting second, etc. You will be able to use free agents as soon as you acquire them.

Trades

Trading is another a great way to build a team. We will supply you with contact information of the other owners in your league. We monitor all trades for fairness, and no trades are allowed after the 11th week. This opportunity to make real trades with other owners can be one of the most fun aspects of Scoresheet Fantasy Football. And the joy of trading is totally lost in other game systems where owners can simply pick up any players they want, even if those players are already on another team in their 'pool'.

Considering how many hours you spend following football each year, you owe it to yourself to play the very best game you can. At Scoresheet, we have worked very hard so that you can do just that! Our success over the years has been due to repeat business and word-of-mouth advertising from satisfied owners.

    rushes and passes attempted

    We even sub for players who are injured during games!

Finally, we offer a drafting system for individuals which for 25+ years has proven to be the best in the industry. Please give us a call if you have any questions. Unlike many internet-only companies, if you call us you will be able to talk to a real person!

Owning a Scoresheet Fantasy Football franchise costs just $54. If you join in a group of 4 or more, the price is only $49 per team. And as long as you use our web site's lineup card feature to make changes there is *no* charge for turning in new lineups, making trades or picking up free agents. This means your franchise fee pays for the entire season as long as you submit your weekly moves thru the web.

However, if you want to turn in lineup changes by postal mail or fax or e-mail you can do so, but then there is a charge. Changing your lineup card (including any trades or free agent pickups) other than by using the web form costs $4. But once again, as long as you turn in your lineup and free agent list from the web there is no weekly charge at all.
