To clarify how this fast-play game works (from memory, since I can't seem to find the original post on this and it was only a few weeks ago), this coach's idea is that each team gets four downs and starts from midfield. The number of yards gained is the score for that team. So that if, say, the Bears and Browns are playing and the Bears gain 26 yards and the Browns only 13, the final score is 26-13. If one team goes all the way for a touchdown, that's 57 points. If one team gains 22 yards and makes a field goal, that's 25 points. If a team fails to gain anything or goes into negative yardage, their score is 0. It's a good way, from what I read, to run a season with a large league; by compressing the season games down to ten minute sessions on the board so as to fill out the schedule, compile W-L-T records in a few weeks, and determine the qualifiers for the postseason.
