Scoring is what keeps young kids involved. Eventually they will grab on to the complexities of the game as they tire of scoring on every play and desire a more competitive challenge. My 4 year old plays with me and sometimes its my 11 against 24. Talk about a challenge! Try running on that. But the key is he is having fun and I can still test my skill following the basic rules to see if i can get through his stack, blitz, cover 2, zone, man on man defense. LOL
One thing I learned from the Texas Shootout rules that would help in FOB is that the defense controls the switch on any run play and if you don't switch it off on time it's just too darn bad. It worked extremely well and there were more then a few times that I unintentionally let the RB get an extra few yards because I didn't hit the switch.
