League Quirks

[CrazyOne]

All offensive TDs are 5 points, not 6 and 4 or all 6. This is quirky, or maybe just annoying if you want to look at a lot of projections or cheat sheets.

 

Yard scoring is fairly standard at 1pt per 10 rushing and receiving and 1pt per 20 for passing.

 

We do fumbles and ints at -2pts.

 

We have threshold bonuses, as described before, but at multiple levels:

 

Passing: 3pts at 250yds, 3 more at 300yds, 3 more at 400yds

 

Rushing and receiving: 5pts at 100yds, 2 more at 150yds, 2 more at 200yds

(note: not combined, must be rushing or receiving)

 

Also, not PPR, but 3 points for every 5 receptions caught. This is a weird one. No fractionals, just 3 points when they get to 5, and if they make it to 10 receptions, you'd get another 3 points. Makes it interesting when your WR has 4 receptions for 98 yards or such. Even a 2-yard reception would be worth 9 points there.

 

2-point conversions are worth 1pt if they are passed, run or caught by one of your guys.

 

Field goals have a 2pt bonus if longer than 40yds. XPs are 1pt.

 

We do team defense/special teams. But we have one IDP to choose from the same team. This position is not drafted nor subject to the typical waiver rules, as it only comes from the defense already on your roster that you are starting that week. He can be changed right up to lineup deadline and changed as many times during the season as necessary/desired. This guy scores 2pts for any sack, int or fumble recovery that he makes.

 

10-point bonus for shutout by defense. We talked earlier this season about instituting a 5-point level for 1-6 points allowed, but right now it's all or nothing, 10 points or zero. A rare but huge bonus.

 

We only have two yardage levels, 10pts for 0-149yds allowed, 5pts for 150-199yds allowed. It's rare to score on these, but a nice bonus when you do.

 

Punt return or kickoff return TDs get a 2-point bonus (for a total of 7).

 

Sacks score 2pts, ints or fumble recoveries score 3pts.

 

Safeties score 1pt.

 

Our 10-team league is a head-to-head format with a 4-team playoff, but we reserve a hefty prize for total points for the season as well. That prize does not need to go to someone in the playoffs, and a couple of times it didn't.
