Best Answer

The scoring system has developed over time. Initially field goals were the main way of scoring and a touchdown was only worth one point and was mearly used as a way of getting a field goal in an easier position (i.e. if you throw it from your own 20 on a 80 yard TD pass). Touchdowns then became worth 5 and field goals 3 and ultimately became 6 and 3 over time. I would love to give you dates but i wasn't around so i don't care :)

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
