Redfish Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 Team 1 has 896.6 total pts and Andre Johnson tonight Team 2 has 892.4 total pts and Tom Brady tonight Team 3 has 880.0 total pts and Gostkowski/Welker tonight Team 4 has 902.8 total pts and no remaining players All teams are 7-6 right now. Team 4 is 1.4 pts ahead of Team 1 this week and needs Andre to not reach 28 total yards to even have a chance via total pts. Teams 2 and 3 will both win tonight, but need to finish with the highest point total among the four listed. 0.03 pts/passing yard 0.05 pts/receiving yard 0.06 pts/rushing yard 4 pt passing TD 6 pt rushing/receiving TD Who wins? After you all tell me, I will let you know which one is me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooby's Hubby Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 The team with Brady should win. Scoring tilted way too much in favor of QB's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pseudolefty Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 If I had a horse in the race, I'd take Team 2. Rodgers, and even Henne, proved the way to attack the Houstan D is through the air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

detlef Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 (edited) Oddly enough, we have a pretty exciting finish as well, but guys are complaining about it. I have it set up that the four seeds are determined as follows: Best record Highest total points among remaining Best record among remaining Highest points among remaining. tiebreaks being the opposite (most points in record ties, record in points ties) Which, I realize, is hardly my invention. At any rate, we've got two teams who will end 10-4 and two others who will very likely finish 9-5 and I'm taking crap from every direction about my "crazy system". See, neither of the two guys who will finish 9-5 has scored many points (8th and 9th out of 10), so at most one of them makes it. In fact, there's an outside chance that neither do if a team who is almost certainly going to end up 7-7 scores enough to move into 2nd in points scored (one of the 10-4 teams is also the high points man, the other is 27 pts ahead of the 7-7 dude but is done while 7-7 dude has Ridley going). If he does, then the 2nd 10-4 takes the 3rd seed and a 4th team in the mix who is 8-6 but has scored more than either of the 9-5 teams (but most likely less than the 7-7 team) would take the final spot. So, I've got one guy in particular who thinks it should always be about record except for tie breaks having a fit about the fact that one or maybe both 9-5 teams don't make it. I've got the 8-6 team pissed that he's likely out of it despite scoring way more than the two teams ahead of him. What's worse, they're actually complaining about how much is at stake tonight. That, there's all these scenarios when it should have been cut and dry by now. After all, there's yet another scenario if Ridley completely lays an egg tonight (like scores less than 1.5). Then, high scoring 7-7 dude actually finishes behind the 8-6 team in total points and loses the 4th seed to him.

Scooby's Hubby Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 With 4 pt TD and half-yardage? How would you modify it? .06 per rushing yard and .05 per receiving yard? 100 yds rushing is only 6 points? and 100 receiving is only 5 points yet 300 passing is 9? Brady trows 250 and 2 TDs equals 15.5 versus 100 rushing and a TD is 12 ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
