Rookie

A rookie is a player that has never played an NFL game, not only players that are classified as a rookie by the NFL.  This rule is intended to include players who were injured all year in their rookie season, among others.

                              41           -6 pts    

                              42+        -6.5 pts

 

Note: in the calculation of points allowed, a TD on an INT return or a TD on a fumble recovery  doesn’t count because the points are allowed by the offense (deduct 6, 7, or 8 points from points allowed in the game).  Exception : a TD scored on a fumble recovery if the recovery is made by an offensive player, i.e. the defense allowed the TD, not the offense.

               Yards allowed

0-149            7 pts

150-164        6.5 pts

Value of Touchdowns

               1-9 yards              5 pts

               10-19 yards          6 pts

               20-39 yards          7 pts

               40 yards +            8 pts

              

 

Trades.                  Dealine : Sunday November 16th, 2003 at 1:00PM (before Week 11 games)

                              A player traded cannot be reacquired by the same team during the year with another trade

 

Each team selects 24 players in the draft

 

Each week, each team starts 1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 TE, 1 Kicker, 1 Defense, and 1 Rookie

 

A Touchdown or a fumble on special teams counts for the player’s stats (Ex : Tim Brown on a punt return... counts for his WR stats)

 

When there is a TD on a lateral pass, a TD is allowed to the player who passed the ball (not only the player who scored the TD), as long as his name appears in the game scoring summary.  However, a QB doing a lateral pass to the RB who scores a TD is not considered a lateral pass because the game scoring summary will indicate that it is a run by the RB. 

 

Each owner must announce his starting players before 1:00PM on Sunday. 

 

If there are games on Thursday or Saturday, the owner must announce his starting players before the start of the game and can announce the rest of his starting players by 1:00PM on Sunday.

 

If an owner does not announce his players before the games, the players that started the week before automatically start that week. 

 

Injured Player Rule :

1)     The injured player has been officially placed on Injured Reserve, making him unavailable to play in the NFL for the rest of the season.  However, if the player is not placed on the IR but it is public knowledge that the player is injured for the whole year, we will consider that player eligible to the Injured Player Rule. 

2)     The injured player was selected in one of the first four rounds of this year's PQBFL draft.

3)     The injured player is NOT a kicker, or rookie (and defense of course).

4)     Each owner can only make one such replacement during a season.

5)     If a player is traded to another team, it does not affect his eligibility to this rule. 

6)     If the injured player is traded to another team, the player that replaces him on the roster cannot be traded back to the team that traded the injured player
