Full Version: Bruce, Question on Team D Points

Bruce (or anyone else who'd know), I'm wondering how the DD/VBD apps calculate team D pts for leagues that award for yards/points against per week. Every year, the apps seem to project team Ds too high for my league. My league is set up like so (apologies for the format - I cut & pasted from the VBD app):

Defense - Points Allowed Per Game
0 points allowed 15
2-5 9
6-10 6
11-15 3
16-20 3
21-25 0
26-30 -3
31-35 -6
36-40 -6
41-45 -6
46-50 -6
51+ -6

Defense - Yards Allowed Per Game
less than 100 yards 9
101-150 6
151-200 6
201-250 3
251-300 3
301-350 0
351-400 0
401-450 -3
451-500 -3
501+ -6

We also give points for turnovers (2), sacks (1), TDs (6), etc...

Anyway, Arizona is slated to score 180 points usuing FBGs projections. I can count 110 of them coming from sacks, fumbles, safeties, TDs, & INTs. I assume the other 70 are from yards/pts against.

How does that work? The Cards' projected weekly averages put them in the "0 pts" catogory for both. Are actual game outcomes projected?

Oh, & another thumbup1.gif this year for all of your hard work.

There are points and yards distributions, that distribute the total points and total yards over the scoring categories... you can see these in the VBD Spreedshet if you expand the columns right before the Fantasy Points on the Def tab.
