this weekend in the Man Cave Stadium - 12 team Iron Man Tournament.
Why: Because I want to get some games in and work the skills.
When: Throughout the weekend.
Format:
- Teams will be divided into four - 3 team pools.
- Each team will play the other pool teams 1 time using a Miggle style approach - 4 downs from the 40 going in.
- Each team will have to use at least run play during the four downs. Ties determined by most yards gained.
- No field goals allowed.
- Any touch tackles - no passing to engaged receivers - defense adjusts unengaged defenders on pass completions and after 10 yards gained on run plays.
Defenses will all run a 3 man front with remaining defenders set to defend run or pass set-ups. No stacking - LBer's in gaps cannot be closer than back of DT's base.
The top team from each pool will advance into the knock-out stage.
Knock-out stage each teams will have two - four down possessions - same basic rules - field goals allowed on either possession - standard Miggle goalposts.
Final Game - teams will each have two possessions - as many plays as they can muster - minimum of four allowed - so long as the keep getting first downs. TD's will be followed by a mandatory try for point from scrimmage - 2 points for a run PAT and 1 point for a pass PAT.
The Pool draws are:
Pool A
Dolphins
Panthers
Cowboys
Pool B
Cardinals
Jets
Colts
Pool C
