Welcome to the FOF family! There's no way I would have tried this without having thoroughly mastered the game first. I've been playing for going on two decades now, so the basics I have down, especially on the slightly older version that I am playing with in this dynasty.

Without any sort of house rules, playing just against the AI, I've discovered I can turn around a franchise from futility to SuperBowl contender in about 2 seasons. Within 5 seasons, I can typically get a team to the point where it's in the SuperBowl roughly 50% of the time. So playing MP, or playing with house rules like this make it a brand new, fresh challenge all over again.

But I'll confess, this set of house rules is killer. (How much easier if I had chosen Texas or California!). I'm not sure whether I can or can't win a SuperBowl with these few Iowans. We shall see!
