Well the standings got shaken up this week.

Glad to be back in the top half with a 229 week which is currently the ytd high. Reported a problem to Yuds with the Team QB. I'm missing points for the Ravens QB this week which should push me to 236 with Scobee still to go.

BAL TMQB showing up as 25.10 for you this week after not showing up earlier. I assume they fixed it after I alerted them to the problem. I also assume this is the proper score, so let me know if there is still a problem.

This example even shows that WR's don't get scored as QB's. Bradley threw a TD in that game which isn't credited.And a PK isn't considered a QB. They are a PK that threw a TD. They'll get credited with those stats only if the rules account for it and include them. Are we also changing Pts/reception if the WR lines up as a RB? Or if the RB lines up in the slot? Nope. So why are we trying to adjust QB points depending on where they line up.

Clayton's stats don't count as a TMQB. They count for him as an individual, jusyt like they do for RB, TE, and PK. There is no double dipping. You got Clayton's passing stats under his individual score anyone, so why do you feel inclined that his stats should count double? They can't go in two spots.

I get what you're saying and it works fine until Senecca Wallace catches a pass from Hasselbeck or one of the back up holders that happens to be a "QB" tosses a TD pass. If slash is ever reincarnate then things really get interesting.

I'll repeat from above. If Reggie Bush lines up in the slot and makes a catch, should it be changed so he get the reception pt?

Let's make this ultra simple. If the player is in the MFL database in our league, he will get individual scoring points. If he's not, he won't. In our league, crazy as it sounds, in the example you gave a TMQB would get credit for throwing and receiving the ball (and double TD points if they scored). But no point for the reception though. Hasselbeck and Wallace are not individual players, so TMQB would cover them.Say one threw the other a 20 yard TD. That play would net . . .- 20 yards passing- 20 yards receiving- 1 passing TD- 1 receiving TD- 0 point per reception (no PPR for QB in the rules)In your case, the player in question (Clayton) got credit for the passing points. But even in the Seahawks example, there is no double dipping. Each player earned his points but both play the same position. Under the MFL system and based on our league rules, there is no way for one player to get double points on a normal play.IIRC, the only way that a player could score double is a pass thrown to himself, thus netting passing and receiving yards (which happens like once every 3 years).

Since one of the big questions in this league has always been what impact does TMQB have and when to take a TMQB in the draft, I put together some basic things to see where we all stood at this point. Granted, there are still 4 regular season games and the post season still to come.

I added the draft slots for each team's two TMQB to show what the investment was to acquire them and all totaled each team's combined score for those teams.

Carlton Gray - 44 - 362.38

Jason Wood - 100 - 460.8

Dickey Moe - 114 - 455.12

Gatorman - 161 - 347.8

Hear-The-Footsteps - 161 - 306.5

LHUCKS - 161 - 316.44

Aaron Rudnicki - 193 - 400.2

bostonfred - 193 - 379.06

SLBD - 193 - 391.02

PurpleHaze67 - 225 - 386.8

Twilight - 225 - 433.02

BassNBrew - 268 - 460.92

Bueno - 344 - 347.16

Unlucky - 353 - 392.54

David Yudkin - 426 - 420.52

jurb26 - 544 - 321.42

Jason and Dickey got some decent scoring in their earlier picks, but I'm not sure the advantage is all that great compared to some other teams. All the QB injuries this year may have distorted the outcome, but on the surface (at least so far this year) it does not appear that investing in TMQBs a lot earlier really gave much of a scoring advantage.

We'd have to look at earlier years to see if this trend also held true (and looking at the other leagues probably wouldn't hurt either). I suspect that the TMQB numbers may be harder to project before the season started compared to yearend numbers from the prior season. Meaning that we would expect the Colts or Pats to have decent passing numbers but the core of the rest of the league might really vary year-to-year.

Interesting post David. I've always been a wait late guy. I've done well in this league but never had a serious chance at title contention. After watching the Brady owner stomp so many people last year I tried a different approach and went Brees. Why that has paid off, I thought they were a championship contender and would pick up 2-3 extra weeks of scoring. Obviously wrong there. There's huge value in waiting late for QBs because you can find huge points in late rounds. Problem is that you can't get stuck with the 07 Fins or 08 Raiders and basically eliminate yourself from contention.Clearly I got the best return of the QBs picks this year thus far, but I'm out of title contention.

Boy oh boy did I fall into the dumper or what...at or near the top for the first several weeks and now closer to last than first. Ugh.

 

[BRONG]

What's killing me is my 2nd kicker. Of all things, a second kicker....zero points all year long. Brandon Coutu, you get coal in your stocking!

 

[BassNBrew]

Not that it matters because most of my roster sucks, but........everyone of my players is rostered in the league and active most weeks.

 

[BassNBrew]

Sonny opening up a lead again.

 

[Sonny Lubick Blowup Doll]

Sonny opening up a lead again.

Yeah, happy about that because I think I may need it. I'm losing my TE tandem of Gonzo and Daniels, who were huge for me. Haven't looked to see how many playoff players there are on the teams behind me...who looks good?My biggest screw up, again, was not getting a 2nd STARTING kicker. Kris Brown has netted me 127 points to date, so I have to think I left at least 100 points on the table. And it wasn't like there weren't some reliable ones available. What I did instead was roll the dice on Coutu getting the job in Seattle, thinking that would be a good offense, with possible playoff points as well... On the other hand, been pretty fortunate with limited injuries, which destroyed me last year...

Huge run for me to move up to second from roughly seconded to last. Don't have much left playoff wise so it's a matter of seeing how far I drop over the last four weeks.

My playoff roster

Ravens, Baltimore BAL TMQB 230.42 - My best player. Need Baltimore to make some noise.

Hester, Jacob SDC RB 30.60 - Won't see the field.

McGahee, Willis BAL RB 126.40 - Yawn

White, LenDale TEN RB 168.90 - Probably RB #10-12 in the playoff field.

Clayton, Mark BAL WR 149.88 - Go Ravens.

Curtis, Kevin PHI WR 84.00 - Disappearred last week.

Smith, L.J. PHI TE (Q) 121.80 - Disappearred all season.

Reed, Jeff PIT PK 131.00 - Wish I have more Stillers left

Chargers, San Diego SDC Def 127.00 - Yawn

Falcons, Atlanta ATL Def 118.00 - Bigger Yawn

Got 10 of 18 into the playoffs. That's a 56% clip v. an expected 38%. Problem is that I've lost my top 4 guns so I'm heavily wieghted with lower scorers. P. Manning or Warner could conceivably outscored my entire team next week. Only 2 of those 10 have a first round bye so I'll suffer alot of attrition.

A. Bryant and his 252 points were the difference in me being in the upper tier v. bottom half of the pack.

Mike Nugent injury hurt me. If he gets the 115 points that went to Feely, I'd be just 25pts out of 1st right now instead of 140.Anyway, here are my playoff guys:

But see again, I have a goose egg all season long with my second kicker (Coutu) so...Yudkin has mentioned the significance of not paying attention to kickermania in this league. We certainly paid the price this year.

I think the key difference is that my guy was a proven starter who got hurt in the preseason. Kickers don't usually get hurt so I figured I was safe. Rookie kickers like Couttu are much riskier. Either way, if you hit on Couttu, your team could have easily been uncatchable at this point. Definitely a tough break for both of us losing what should be easy points at that position.

Starting tight ends of Utecht and Pope was probably not good, picking Wilkins as a kicker didn't help much, either, and the Rams team quarterback probably wasn't a great pick, but I think I made up for it by getting a couple stud RBs and a stud WR:

Addai, Joseph IND RB 117.00 4

Bell, Tatum DEN RB 42.60 8

Brown, Chris HOU RB (I) - 2

Jones, Julius SEA RB 88.40 4

Maroney, Laurence NEP RB (I) 9.30 4

Edwards, Braylon CLE WR 164.70 5

OOF.

Yeah, you're right. Different situations. I gambled, and lost. You took the points and moved on; then got screwed. That's worse. Fair enough.

Damn, I had 6 players knocked out this weekend, leaving me only one left for the next two games -- Philly's D.

BassNBrew, I see you in my rearview mirror, and I don't like it. GO PITT!

Won't matter. Congrats on the title. 180 is too much to make up. Anything north of 50 would be a huge week this late in the year. Just want to hang onto 2nd.

Congrats to SLBD.

My only chance is to catch BassNBrew for 2nd place overall.

He has a kicker; I have a WR and Def.

The real stinker here is the amount I am behind 1st overall is about what a kicker would have given me. (Tynes owner who sat behind Carney all year.) Oh well.

Hopefully I can at least pull out 2nd place.

IIRC, Sonny also has no kicker, so that is a wash.

Please...you scored 58 points more than me...which is probably the pinnacle of your fantasy career.

58, 580, or 5800...another year, same story. Does your neck hurt from always looking up at me or do you just get used to it?
