Safety 5 pts? (1 Viewer)

that's the rules

i'm sure plenty of people lose games when team defenses give up 11+ points, and lose that bonus for low points allowed.

 
Just frustrated because I'm 0-2 after losing to two crappy teams. Richardson and C Johnson better get it going soon.

 
Actually, no. 5 pts for a safety is dumb. That being said, I drafted a team full of busts. It happens.

 
When creating the rules and scoring system for the FFPC & the Footballguys Players Championship, we felt that safeties should be worth more than a fumble or a interception. That is the reasoning for making them worth 5 points. We think it makes sense.

That's my reasoning. Both my leagues have 5pt safeties because they are a scoring play and more rare than ints and fumbles. Most leagues have 2 pts for those.

 
Most leagues set points for sacks at 2. I think a sack that turns into 2 points for the team should be worth more. I usually go with 4, but 5 doesn't sound unreasonable.

Obligatory :ptts:
