*TIL playing Defensive Tackle makes you ineligible for Defensive Tackle awards - Eldorian - 01-14-2021

So I wasn't really bothered by it and thought it would be funny if Goat Tank would be mad about not getting nominated for an award. He didn't have as good of a season as he had in the past and I just assumed there were others who had better seasons.

Then today I decided to actually go look at the stats and was like, huh, maybe I am missing something here, because I think Goat Tank kind of fits somewhere in this.

So I did a poll in the couple locker rooms I am in by asking people if you had to throw out one of these stat lines and the other 5 get nominated, who would you throw out?

Goat Tank was C, and not a single person said C. Most said E.

Ok well, weird, maybe I'm on to something here? Are people just sick of the Goat Tank meme maybe? I mean, I get it if they are and that is fine. But I don't understand why.

That's when I was asked if I played RDT or LDT this season. And yeah, OCO played me at those positions pretty much 100% this season.

"Oh, that's why. You aren't eligible for DToTY because you played there"

Wait... what?

Literally - if you play Defensive Tackle and not Nose Tackle primarily - you are ineligible for winning Defensive Tackle of the Year. Goat Tank wasn't even on the ballot.

The more you know.

NT would be considered the DT spot, DTs are DEs IIRC(?). I know WS did some strange stuff with the DL and maybe its all fucky

Or the awards committee is big stooped, idk

TIL playing left defensive tackle or right defensive tackle is considered playing defensive end.

That's not on Wolverine Studios.

If you even think about playing anything other than your listed position you should be banned from the league tbqh. Forget DT/DE I'm not sure how awards committee deign to consider these TEs who have played RTE in the Two TE set. Right Tight End? If you need to qualify your TE-ness with a side then you are impure and only deserving of punishment. You might as well be a wide receiver. Disgusting pigs.

Chicago was also hit with this @ForSucksFake was part of the group. I feel this pain.

I've been playing DT for 6 years and have never made a ballot. Coincidence? I think not.

Clearly because they play Right Tight End and not Tight End they are ineligible. If they want to game the system by playing right tight end rather than tight end, no awards for them. Maybe they should try and get a "Right Tight End of the Year" award introduced so that their accomplishments are recognised?

It's unfortunate and stupid that we have to do that. Ideally I'd rather have 3-4/3-3-5 DTs treated as a flex position for awards, but that's on GMs to make those rules. For awards committee, if we treated RDT and LDT in 3-4/3-3-5 as DT spots only however, it'd be more problematic than the current rule to treat them as DE as any team that ran one of those formations in at least 41% of weeks would disqualify their DEs from their positional awards. Overall though I hopr the DDSPF 21 defensive packages should help eliminate this problem, but the awards process remains far from perfect.

Defensive Interior / Edge Rusher / Inside Linebacker awards, please. Don't make 3-4 OLBs compete with 4-3 MLBs.
