5 League Settings That Promote Luck Over Skill
In this episode, Jeff breaks down the fantasy football league settings that turn your season into a dice roll instead of a skill game. From short benches and position maximums to high-variance scoring bonuses, old-school waiver systems, and the weekly chaos of defense/special teams, Jeff dives into why these rules promote luck over strategy and how they can wreck even the best-built rosters. If you’ve ever lost to a random 50-yard touchdown or a fluky pick-six, this one’s for you.
