Defense only league for those who want to play with the other half of the NFL

Yahoo!

League ID: 282734

PW: defense

Only IDP's, lineup realistic of NFL lineup (DE's, DT's, LB's, CB's, S's)  I realized I know a heck of lot more offensive players than defensive, and I think its because of fantasy football. It's a new idea this year to try and balance that out.

I'm thinking 10-12 teams, but it can expand if more people want to join. It's also open to the public, only so that it will fill up right before the draft if its not already.

Draft time is August 9, 715pm West coast.  (Subject to change if majority of league votes)

*Yahoo! allowed 4 fantasy teams per ID.

I just came across something ridiculous that I thought I just had to share. Assuming that Tampa Bay, Dallas, and Atlanta all win out and finish 11-5, something that is entirely possible at this point, the NFL tiebreaker rules cause Dallas to make the playoffs and the two divisional opponents to battle for the last spot. Now if both are 11-5, they will have identical head-to-head, divison, and conference records, as well as records in common games. The next tiebreaker is strength of victory. Now the only difference in teams that they have beaten is Tampa Bay has beaten Seattle, and Atlanta will have beaten St. Louis...  Which means the Seattle victory over St. Louis today could very well have decided a playoff spot in the NFC. Who said that game didn't matter?
