Ill say this as nicley as i can. You cant half ass idp and have it be fun too.

you have to understand that defensive lineman suck and are going to vary in scoring. linebackers score the most off of tackles and defensive backs give you tackles from the safety position and less from corners.

the way i have mine set up now mirrors the offense.
offense 1 pt 20 yards pass/ 1 pts 8 yards rev/rush. +4 for 40 yard bonus. +3/+4/+5 for 100/150/200 same for 300/400/500

so a good week of 100 yards and  a td come out to about 22 pts for us.
1 qb 2 rb 3 wr 1 te and a flex 8 spots

defensively you have to be similar
we do 2 pts per tackle, 1 per assist. 6 pts for sacks and interceptions. 4.5 for fumbles and 2.25 for fumble recovery.

a good defensive week is about 8 tackles and one big play. around 22 points.

we run two defensive lineman, three linebackers and three defensive backs. 8 spots

the best league iteration we have done so far since both sides of the ball are pretty every in scoring. you need to have an equalnumber o spots for offense and defense. otherwise you just cherry pick the waiver wire for defense and theyre simply glorified kickers. as you may notice we also dumped them. so my suggestion is to go big and have them be a real part of your league, otherwise you will hust have everyone with three linebackers.
