Our league will be using this and I am exited but a little confused as I’m trying to enter it to MFL.

is this all of the scoring variables?

fumble = 2

int = 2

punt = 1

4th donw stop = 2

Def TD = 6 (does this include special teams?)

safety = 3?

are points against involved in the formula? if yes what are the ranges and points assigned?

forced punts are one (1) point and turnovers are two (2)?

in that instance I would definitely include points-against as you're already emphasizing "real" defense over fantasy defense

I got a reply from emailing Jeff.

Hi Whitem0nkey,Pulling this from memory (I think the article covers the details well) only turnovers (Fum Rec and INTs), 4th down stops and forced punts matter. Punts are 1, the rest are 2. D/ST TDs are fine to add.Pts. against is arbitrary to add, but I think that it is overkill.You can try mocking the scores on MFL and see how they look, but I think anything beyond 2PTs for a safety and 6 for D/ST is pushing it. I might add a few points for a shutout.Glad to see you using the system!Enjoy the draft-Jeff

If you're using PA as 'reality' and comparing against that, why not just used PA in your scoring. The correlation is perfect. The spread between 1st and 12th is about 6 ppg, which I believe was even more than his formula.

is there a site or on MFL that I can test the scoring system using last years stats?
