Ok, in looking at Geoff's team (Big Blue) it seems that TDs matter a heck of a lot more as far as fantasy points go.

He had both running backs from last nights game and the Miami back got more then 2 times as many points because of his 2 TDs even though he only rushed for 30 yards.

 

[Poni]

TD's = 6 points.

They matter the most.

20 yards = 1 point.

Receptions = 1 point.

If you click settings on the league page, you'll see all the scoring.

Yea, there is a page that breaks down the points somewhere....let me see if I can find it...

I remember looking at that...it was surprising to see how many more points he got for the Miami back over the Pitt back. The Pitt back had a much better overall game but not where it counts I guess.

Jersey Aficinados will be thrown down like a stale macanudo ...

Only problem was that Culpepper was throwing down the macanudo and Porter interecepted and ran it back for a TD.

Dante killed me! I was goign to start Rivers but at the last minute decided to stick with Dante. Thank goodness for Ronnie Brown!

The INTs and that wimpy red zone performance and the end of the half killed me.

Lord, I love football!

Do you guys think it would be easier to comment on the weeks goings ons if we started a new thread for each week?

Larry, I do not see 1 point per catch as a scoring bonus.


To answer Todd's question, this league is a combination scoring league. Meaning we score 6 points for touchdowns and give an average amount of bonus for yardage. Yes TD's are important, but someone that rushes or receives 100 yards gets 5 points, so were pretty evenly distributed in bonus to TD ratio. Some leagues are TD only, no yardage bonus. Some leagues are high performance, scoring points every 10 yards rushing and receiving, and some give very large bonuses for long touchdowns, like Heath Miller last night.

So last night, scoring for Miami RB Ronnie Brown was high cause he punched in 2 short touchdowns, giving him 12 points, but his yardage total stunk. Conversely, Pittsburgh RB Willie Parker out produced Brown about 4 to 1, but did not score a touchdown. So Parker overall scoring was low, pretty normal really. And Culpepper tossed 2 interceptions and average passing yardage, so his points stunk also.
