Rule changing help (1 Viewer)

Hello,

I run a 12-team fantasy football league with 2 additional co-commissioners for help with decision making in league affairs.  This year we decided to try out scoring completions by the QB as .5 points per completion and incompletions as -.25.  We thought that it was a good idea at the time, but 3 weeks in, some QBs are putting up 65 ppg.  The executive committee as well as 5 others would like to see the scoring decrease for QBs, but there is one person in the league that is very upset with the thought of the scoring system changing 3 games into the season.  This owner has Drew Brees (who is scoring 60 ppg)  and admittedly did not plan his draft around this original scoring method.  Would it be wrong to decrease the scoring in order to make the majority happier with winning being more team oriented and not QB oriented?

Thank you

 
Once you've agreed to a set of rules, you must abide by them throughout the season, regardless of how bad some feel the rule is.  The time to speak up and vote on the change was before the first game, now you just have to live with it.

 
Its a small sample size and is the same for everyone.  It was a change everyone agreed to and it should stay the entire season.  You cannot change something like scoring system part way through a season.  No matter how you change it, the change will end up pissing someone off and will look like it favors team X (even if that wasn't the intention). 

You just have to bite the bullet and ride out the season.  It's the same scoring for everyone so nobody had an inherent advantage going in.
