Points per Team....per Week. (1 Viewer)

[Varmint]

I know that fantasy scoring varies a lot from league to league....

But, how many points did a team score on average in your league in 2008?

Is there a consensus?

Do most prefer a high scoring league or a low scoring league.

Mine?

My league averaged 31.6 pts per team per week in 2008.

The Overall Pts Champion scored 615 pts over 16 weeks. (38.4 pts per week)

We haven't changed the scoring rules since 1999 so it's probably close to this over the past 10 seasons.

How about yours?

What is the average point output for teams in your league.

 

[FavreCo]

wow? What knid of scoring is that ? 31 is the average?

Our average is probably around 70-80. I averaged a record 92 ppg this past year though.

Nothing major....we just don't give points for everything and penalize heavily for some things....BASIC STUFF

TOUCHDOWNS

RB's and WR/TE's get 6 pts for ALL TD's...rushing, passing, receiving

QB's TD pts are staggered. TD's 1 & 2...3 pts each.

TD's 3 & 4...4 pts each

TD #5...5 pts

TD's #6 and above...6 pts each.

DEF/ST's get 3 pts for each TD

PK...3 pts per FG

YARDAGE

RB's get 2 pts @ 100 yds then 1 pt for every 25 yds after that.

WR's get 1 pt @ 75 yds then 1 pt for every 25 yds after that.

QB's get 1 pt @ 250 yds passing then 1 pt for every 25 yds after that

BONUSES

Everybody....1 pt for TD's over 49 yds...2 pts for TD's over 74 yds. (including DEF/ST)

PK's...1 pt for FG over 49 yds

WR/TE's get 1 pt on their 5th reception and 1 pt for each reception after that...PROVIDED, he has 75 yds receiving. (74 yds gets you NOTHING!)

Your DEF gets 5 pts when they take the field. (That's 4 pts and one bonus pt.)

Pitch a shutout and you get all 5 pts.

Two pts come of the 5 when they give up their first 3 pts then loose 1 more pt for every 3 pts given up.

When they've given up 12 pts, the 5 pts is gone (no negative pts scored here)

PENALTIES (and these can be harsh)

Everybody...-1 pt for fumble lost

QB...-1 pt per INT....-5 pts for INT RET FOR TD

PK...-1 pt for missed PAT

DEF/ST... -2 pts for TD's given up 49+ yds....-3 pts for TD's given up 74 + yds.

You would not believe how exciting the negative scoring makes the games.

Most leagues who have a decent lead and a QB playing on MNF may not bother to watch the game...BUT...if an INT returned for a TD could cost you the game, you'll watch...

Or....you are 4 pts behind in the final seconds of a game. Your opponnent has a QB playing and you have NOBODY ...but....your opponent's QB tosses an INT for a TD!

That's a 6 pt swing in YOUR favor (just like in the NFL) and you win!

I know the crowd around here and if it ain't in their league...it sucks.

But this doesn't.

I've played in many leagues I feel that THIS scoring formats is the most exciting I've ever seen.

 

[puckalicious]

My leagues with same scoring average about 80 pts/g. I'd consider this format pretty close to the 'FBG Standard' scoring.

Maybe I'm way off, but my understanding for "STANDARD" scoring is:

Start 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, 1K, 1Def

Scoring same for all positions: 6pt TD, 1pt/10yds rush/rec, 1pt/25yds pass, 3pt/FG (5pt/50yd FG)

Team defense scoring with some variation of 10 base points with minuses for yds/pts against, 2pt for fumbles/INTs, 1pt for sacks.

Note: QB position may also use 4pt TD with 1pt/20yds passing which I think equals out pretty close to the above.

This might be different than the 'official' FBG standard scoring, just my opinion.

 

[RoyDubb]

ppr league, 12 teams, 10 starters (2-3 RBs, 3-4 WRs)

2175 pts in 16 weeks, 135 pts/week avg. good enough to win total points for this league.

 

[The Man With No Name]

Local IDP league averaged 106 points per team in 2008. 16 total starters.

Other IDP league averaged 205 points per team in 2008. 19 total starters.

 

[Q-Bert]

~70

12 teams

1QB/2RB/3WR/1TE/1K/1D

6 pts Rush/Rec TD

3 pts Pass TD

1 pt per 15 rush/rec yds

1 pt per 40 pass yds

Nothing spectactular about K or D

No offense, but I've played in leagues like this and there's no way I'd do it again.

i don't enjoy leagues where your FG kicker could account for over 25% of your team score. That seems WAY out of whack.

DEF/ST..5.8

Try again.....

First off, calling someone "Chuckles" is a great way to kill your ability to use this forum. Keep that in mind going forward.Second, you missed the word "COULD" in my post.

By your own admissions:

1. League average score: 31.

2. FGs are worth 3.

Simple math can tell you how 3 FGs can be >25% of an average score.

 

[Lott's Fingertip]

10 team league, 9 starters.

Average weekly score per team was between 94 and 103, with one rebuilding team down at 82.

Regarding the PK getting 3 per FG in a lower scoring league, that is kind of crazy. In a typical league, your kicker getting 5 FGs will net 15-20 points, which is a lot for a kicker. BUT, that is often still only 15-20% of a typical team's scoring.

If your team averages 34, and the PK gets 15 (about 9 above average), he is accounting for 15/43, or about 35% of your score. That's an awful lot for what amounts to luck.

To each his own, of course... and you are right, many people automatically think "their" way is best. It's pretty harsh for a RB to get 90+ yards and no points, though, but have Mike Karney score 3 TDs on 10 yards or something. But that is just personal preference.

Gee ...I guess you could check out my league's top scorers right hereTOP PLAYERS

(when you do the math...do it for 14 teams starting 1 QB...2 RB....2 WR/TE....1 PK....1 DEF/ST

Just click on "TOP PLAYERS" to the left....

Then...come on back and show us all how the PK's dominate scoring in this league..

You'd think that someone given the responsibllity of a Moderator would take the time to check facts before firing off his "opinion"

Just for example....

If a QB scores 6

and a RB (start 2) scores 6 COMBINED

and the WR/TE (start 2) scores 6 COMBINED

and the DEF/ST scores 6

and then the PK scores 6

You'll need to show me how the PK scored 25% of the points....it looks to me like he carried his share.

 

[Routilla]

Points were down in 2008 for my league. None of the scoring records were threatened on a weekly basis or obviously annual basis. 2008 was the definition of parody.

The #1 kicker scored more than Larry Fitzgerald.

[Lott's Fingertip]

7 out of the top 30 overall scorers were kickers.

The highest ranked kicker in any of my leagues was #53 overall.

Dude, I really think your missing his (rather innocent) point. And I wouldn't get to snippy w/ JP. He has the power - and rightfully so.(I think) he's means in your average scoring game, say a 36-30 final score, someone's kicker may be accounting for a unusually large percentage of the points. Say one team has their K get 3 FGs and 2xps - 11/36 is crazy kicker weighting. Of course they could also get 2xps, but his point was this system where a FG = a base TD, is a little strange. And I'd tend to agree.

Glad you guys like it though - that's all that really matters. I wouldn't take things quite so personally.

I really don't take it personal...I just love how most people around here can find fault with everything that they don't do in their league....

I really don't remember asking if my PK's scoring was outta whack.

I simply asked whether or not people prefer low scores or high scores....

So far I found that one guy doesn't like when PK's score too many points....

Oh...and just so everyone knows....using this scoring, PK's accounted for 16.5% (on average) of each weeks' scoring....NOT 25% as stated earlier

And this number is based off the top 14 PK's in the league....not the true starters.

The real number is probably closer to 10%-12% because I know that the top 14 PK's were started each week.

I don't remember reading the Book for Fantasy Standards....but I think this falls within the acceptable range for PK's.

I don't remember laughing during the season.... Just nitpicking but the word is 'parity'.I agree, 2008 was sort of lukewarm in the fantasy records department. 2007 had so many ups it would be hard to beat anytime soon. Brady/Moss was unreal. Add in Bironas with a 28pt week and you have a season to remember. IIRC, he scored almost 30% of my points that week....

[Yenrub]

My league has a pretty low scoring system

The league average was 44.76 points per week

Highest scoring team averaged 51.61 ppw

Lowest scoring team averaged 37.22 ppw

Our #1 kicker was Gostkowski, Stephen NEP with 111.30 points for the season, good enough for #50 overall
