I'm not sure if this has even been talked about over the years, but how would people feel about LOSING (negative points) for points allowed??? Totally spitballing off the top of my head, it could be something like this;
30-39 points allowed = -2
40-49 points allowed = -5
50+ points = -10
For the record, I did not start Tampa Bay or play against them in any leagues. I just feel when you looked as horrible as them and get a "pick 6" late in the game, and end up with 15 points, it is ridiculous.
Under my proposed format, they would of received 5 points (which is probably about 15 too many).
It wouldn't affect many games at all, but it would certainly penalize a pitiful defense. If you allow over 50 points....there should be no possible way you get POSITIVE points at all in my book, but at least this would contain that a bit.
Just a thought....
