MFL - strange plays

[MustOfBeenDrunk]

I know I have come across it before but can not locate it now.

For those of you who use MFL they list strange plays of the week.

They explain the play and the scoring. Anyone know this feature and how / where to locate it ?

Help Center, then search for "Strange Plays" ... I am guessing that you are looking for something like this:

 

Offensive Fumble Recovery TD Following A Turnover.

 

• Scenario: Team A has the ball and passes or rushes with it.
  • In a pass scenario, Team A throws an interception to Player B1 on Team B. Player B1 subsequently fumbles the ball. The recovery is made by Player A2 on Team A who runs it in for a TD.
    
  • In a rush scenario, Player A1 on Team A fumbles the ball to Player B1 on Team B. Player B1 subsequently fumbles the ball and the resulting recovery is made by a Player A2 on Team A who runs it in for a TD.>
    

   

  [*]Result: Player A2 is awarded an 'Offensive Fumble Recovery TD' from the distance from the recovery to the end zone. This is not considered a Defensive Team TD because the Team A defense was not on the field.

Question

1. How is the Fumble Recovery TD after an Interception in the Saints game being scored?

Answer: At the end of the first half, Kareem More of the Redskins intercepted a pass from Drew Brees of the Saints. During the interception return, Moore proceeded to fumble the ball, and then Robert Meachem of the Saints recovered the fumble and ran 43 yards for a TD.

 

This play is scored as a 43 yard "Offensive Fumble Recovery TD" for Robert Meachem. If your league wants Meachem to receive the points for this touchdown, then you'll need to make sure the "Offensive Fumble Recovery TD" rule is defined in your scoring rules for the WR position.

 

This play is NOT scored as a Defensive Fumble Recovery TD for the Saints Team Defense position, since their defensive unit was not on the field during that play. If your league wants to score this play differently than how it shows up in the stats, then your commissioner would need to use the "For Commissioners > Adjust Scores and Standings > Player Score Adjuster" screen to add or subtract points to Meachem or the Saints Defense as needed.

 

Note that for what it is worth, the last time this type of touchdown occurred was 6 years ago in 2003 when the Buccaneers threw an Interception, which was then fumbled and then Keenan McCardell recovered it an ran it in for a TD. So this type of play is very rare, but it was scored the same way the last time it happened.

Same place in the MFL search - I just gave the example above because of the Meachem business today - "Strange Plays" is also updated weekly as needed for specific situations, see below:

 

Search: strange plays#Question 1.How do I use the Strange Plays page?

Ironically in my 1 local league that uses Team DF I had Tampa Bay DF the year McCardell had the double fumble return TD.
