Must still be assigned to be a RB if they carry the ball.

I read through closely to determine that the FB Dive can't be ran with an RB? ...I've never worked with so little. Maybe I see 1 WR to RB prospect for that...

Huh? I worked all night and my brain is foggy.

I can't put a WR @ FB #1 and do my FB Dive thing, right?

I was doing it in the XFL with Weir even when RB rules came into place as a sneak move but fair under the rules.

When this season started I did a poll, asking the league if they now wanted to let WR run the ball. They voted no.

You were smart how you worded it. :)

RB position vs. RB carrying the rock.

I actually edited the rule to include FB being allowed to run. I'm no lawyer and I'm often either on little sleep or stressed from work when I write these rules. The way it was worded made it seem like even FB couldn't carry the ball.

Umm, hmm, I can't put a WR in an RB route, right?

Carefully craft the WR only placed to be in a passing situation from an RB route.

I thought we weren't allowed to play offensive players on defense?


WR Robinson had 3 INTs in the last game.
