Captain Tagon, are you the "Dragoons"? LaMont Jordan is going nowhere tonight! 53 yards max and no scores. Antonio Gates, however, will have a monster night. Should be close. Glad I have the 1 pt. "homefield" advantage this week.

Yeah, this is going to come right down to the wire. It was back and forth all day yesterday leading up to the exciting conclusion tonight.

What's lame is that in a lot of cases my bench did better than my starters. Oh well.

 

[Captain Tagon]

Wow. That's as close as I ever want a FF game to come again.

First year commissioner goof

I just noticed that hte default setting for enworld is not the traditional point scoring system. I didnt even think to check thinking that all of the point systems were the same. There are some very big differences.

QB TDS are worth 4pts only as opposed to 6
Defensive TDs are worth 3 pts as opposed to 6
Every 10 yards gets a point as opposed to every 20 years for receivers and RBs
Every 25 passing yards gets a point as opposed to every 50

Theres nothing we can do about week 1, but should i change the points to more traditional fff?

My opinion
The yardage is pretty ok and I've been in leagues that score like this. I"m more miffed by the touchdowns not being equal for everybody.

I agree. I like the yardage the way it is but wouldn't mind having the TDs changed to 6 across the board.

Good week Dragoons. We shall meet again!

 

[Ghostwind]

I'd like to see the touchdowns worth six points. The yardage thing isn't that big of a deal though.

This is traditional scoring for ESPN leagues, which I have been playing for at least five years.
It is also very common scoring for leagues that emphasize yardage over TD's.

Changing passing TDs to 6 points emphasizes QBs a lot more. I would have drafted much differently if I had known that going in. Sorry, but I don't see the point in changing it now.

 

[DonTadow]

It sounds like the majority would like to see 6 points for all TDS, so I'm going to go the democratic route change that to be so.

I feel you Gansk but I drafted believing that all TDs were 6 points which is the opposite. Not being familiar with ESPN, if I had known before hand I would have changed it. I did some researching after work and could not find an online league that scored TDs at less than 6.

I do think that yardage is still more important and the yardage is on par with many other leagues as is field goals.

 

[Gansk]

OK, well at least you added -2 points for turnovers, which I don't think was there before. That should help balance things out.

I was also a little suspicious that you were the one who drafted Manning #1 overall, but I see now that was someone else. You actually have some issues with your quarterbacks, especially now since you're factoring in interceptions.

So everything's cool.
