The Players Challenge Advantage
Why you should be playing with us
Players Challenge is one of the most exciting and challenging, yet EASY to play, fantasy football games out there.
A Streamlined Yet Challenging Game
Players Challenge is about your skill and ability to evaluate each NFL player, analyze their matchups against each defense, and determining how they stack up with comparable players. And with the salary cap element added to the mix you determine how much you want to spend for a player and whether his value is too expensive or a bargain. It’s all about strategy when you choose your lineup each week of the football season. And no messy, confusing and sometimes frustrating pre-season drafts to deal with. What if your “drafted team” had a Peyton Manning and/or Priest Holmes and both were out by the second week of the season? Your season pretty much goes up in smoke early. And why should someone else be the lucky one in grabbing those players you had your eyes on. So much for cheatsheets. And with most other fantasy football games out there many teams are out of contention by week 7 or 8 anyway. These are problems that Players Challenge has taken care of. We want this to be the most challenging fantasy football game ever played, with everyone having a shot at the top.
You Choose the Offense
This is one of the most exciting elements of Players Challenge. Are you a believer in the running game? Or do you think the passing game is what gets you points? Do you see NFL matchups during a week that gives the advantage to the runners? How about the receivers? Players Challenge lets you choose between two offensive formations: the Split Back/”I” or the Shotgun formations
The Split Back/”I” (with 3 RB, 2 WR, 2 TE), emphasizes the power-run ground game with quick bursts of speed and the short passes. The Shotgun formation (2 RB, 4 WR, 1 TE) is an all-out, air-assault passing game. (Both formations have 1 QB, 1 K, 1 Def/ST)
You Choose the Players
Why should you be relegated to a draft that you may not be happy with at the beginning of the season but stuck with it throughout? Isn’t the skill in choosing who the best pro football players are and outsmarting the other teams, your competitors? With Players Challenge you get to choose who you want on your team and have the ability to change your roster week after week. With traditional fantasy football games one of the biggest hurdles is actually a mental one: worrying about the players on the team you’re playing against. We call it the “match up syndrome”. Why worry about what your opponent has when you should be building your team. And who worries about the weather in December when you’re choosing your players in September? The ability to choose your players each week allows you to study all the factors with regards to the game. It’s the difference when deciding on the same week between Donovan McNabb playing in the warm confines of Tampa Bay, or Peyton Manning in the biting cold and wind on the frozen tundra of Lambeau Field. The Players Challenge format offers you maximum flexibility in choosing your players week to week so you can be confident in your lineup.
No Funny Trades or Collusion
Have you played a fantasy game where some trades and even the waiver system just didn’t seems fair? This is the flip side of random chance. Ever had that sinking feeling that teams in your league were colluding to the detriment of others. No need to worry about that playing Players Challenge. By doing away with trades and giving you the power to choose your players each week we just leveled the playing field.
No Transaction Fees or Other Hidden Charges
With most fantasy games have you ever asked why certain teams should have an advantage just because they can pony up additional money for trades or pick-ups? Why should you pay more than what you already paid? What if your favorite running back suffers a season-ending injury? With most other fantasy games you’re stuck with him unless you drop and add another player or find some person who’s willing to trade for him (yeah, right), then it’s more money out of your pocket with some fantasy games nickel-and-diming you up to $5-$10 for each trade/transaction. With Players Challenge it’s one small entry fee and that’s it! It’s like having UNLIMITED trades or add/drops.
Fantastic Prizes
The Super Grand Prize consisting of $40,000 for the Overall Points winner and $10,000 for the Playoffs winner, with the chance that one person could walk away with both! Other great prizes for league and weekly winners so everyone has a chance of winning throughout the entire football season!

Other Advantages
You also won’t lose in an unfair head-to-head matchup. How frustrating is it to have the second highest scoring team in a week and lose because of your head to head matchup? Random scheduling alone can determine league champions sometimes. Not Player Challenge: The total points format showcases your ability to pick the high scorers week to week.
You won’t lose out on a waiver wire pickup because of some screwy free-agent pickup rule or waiver wire order. Everyone has equal access to all the studs and weekly sleepers. There are no limits in Players Challenge Fantasy Football. Follow the trends, spot the sleepers and up and comers, drop the busts. It’s all about picking the highest scoring team. Seriously, who drafted Matt Hasselbeck last year and lived to regret it? And how many first round picks were wasted on Marshall Faulk.
Also, with the added element of choosing a formation every week, and working on a full 17 week schedule there are good mathematical odds that even if you were to miss a whole week and forgot to choose your players you would still be in contention throughout the season. How many fantasy football services can say that?
In addition, the “play value” just can’t be beat. Many fantasy football games and contests out there have entry fees that range from $50 to $1,600! At Players Challenge, for only $19.95 you will be immersing yourself in the ultimate fantasy football experience. And the price breaks for Players Challenge are even more generous when you buy multiple teams. Try out different strategies and players by managing 2, 3 or even 4 teams and save money too!
Shouldn’t fantasy football be competitive and fun? Players Challenge makes it all happen.
