ccengler77 0 Posted December 28, 2020 I'm up by 1 point and my opponent is already done. I have the Buffalo kicker and defense going. Should I sit them in case they get negative points? I don't think they will though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

irish 1,226 Posted December 28, 2020 Like I mentioned when you asked in my thread - Nope, play it through legitimately. No way they get negative points! Seal the deal more completely and definitively. Don't forget about stat corrections either. Imagine losing by less than a point or so, because you sat your kicker/ defense!? That would suck and be the true definition of karma! Congrats! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Briggssteel 55 Posted December 28, 2020 Yeah I’m actually cool with sitting a Defense in cases like this BUT the odds of getting negative points between the defense and the kicker has to be extremely low. You should be fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FinishTheDrill 18 Posted December 28, 2020 How does a kicker earn negative points? Fake punt/pass gets picked? Fumble the snap would be on special teams, not kicker, no? Wondering... Anyway, good luck to the OP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That’s ESPN standard I guess because as commissioner I didn’t set it that way intentionally. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
