Here’s the thing: the sport of football (be it NFL, college, high school on down) didn’t just settle on this one-and-done “any given Sunday” playoff model because it’s the fairest or most logical method of crowning a champion. It’s completely out of necessity. Football is too brutal a game to play more than once a week for 5-6 months. There’s a reason baseball, basketball and hockey play longer regular seasons with 5x or 10x as many games. There’s a reason they play 7-game series to crown a champion.
Fantasy football isn’t bound by the same physical constraints as real life football. This desire to mimic the structure of real football is misguided. If your only goal is to gamble and talk sh-t with your buddies, then by all means, play a 13-game regular season and a standard playoff bracket. But if you actually want to compete at a higher level and see sustained success rewarded more frequently, there are tons of ways to tweak this game to make it less fluky and more skill based. The only limits are your imagination and your willingness to track some basic stuff offline that most platforms aren’t capable of officially tracking.
