Case study · Superflex
NFL Superflex — SFLEX is real; we will not invent it elsewhere
How Homefield answers Superflex / 2QB questions when the connected host publishes an SFLEX seat — and how the same Ask refuses a second QB when the league is classic 1QB. No silent Superflex rewrite, no invented TEP.
Reference desk: NFL · league label PPR · SFLEX. Sample answers are produced by the same rules engine as Season Ask — not a writer army, not invented seats.
Host rules Homefield respects
After sync, SFLEX presence comes from host roster_positions / starter seats — not a Homefield Superflex template. Classic 1QB leagues get the refuse path.

What ChatGPT (and generic rankings) miss here
- Locks published SFLEX — never invents Superflex on a 1QB host
- Start-two-QBs answers only when SFLEX/2QB seats exist
- Refuses silent TEP invent on plain PPR Superflex scoring
- Same Season Ask engine as weekly H2H — not a separate SFLEX product claim
- We advise; the host places the lineup
