Why is Game Script Important?

Game script is important because what type of game script his team in involved in can directly affect a player’s fantasy output.

What are the Effects of Game Script?

When playing in negative game script, quarterbacks will face more pressure and coverage because a defense won’t have to worry about the run, but the quarterback also have to attempt a greater amount of passes in order to cut down on the deficit, so does this make him more or less desirable of a play? Also, how are his receivers affected? Does facing more coverage when playing from behind hinder their production, or does playing against soft defenses allow them to thrive more than they would in positive game script?
