Scoring for QBs (1 Viewer)

Has anyone ever used or thought of using a sliding scale based on QB rating to help boost QB values in a more NFL tangible way for FF scoring? Are there any sites that can support such a function?

 
that sounds kinda interesting....something like because Peyton was ranked #1 last year, but say Brunell did pretty good, Brunell could end up getting you more points then Peyton?? That could be fun. Never heard of a league like that though....

:usuallanswer: xpertsports has that option.
Have you used it before and does it help reduce the importance of RBs? Or in other words, does it help upper level QBs seperate themselves from the baseline/pack?OK, where'd your post go? :confused:

I took it a different way than what thayman did. My quick read thought you were talking about just using qb rating as one of the scoring options.

 
Let me better explain what I was thinking then. Seems to be some confusion. I would like to keep something similar to a standard scoring platform for QBs ala: 25 yds passing = 1 pt, TD passes = 4 pts.... ect. Only add in something like:

QB rating 147 - 156 (think thats the highest) = 6 points

QB rating 137- 146 = 5 points

QB rating 127 - 136 = 4 points

QB rating 117 - 126 = 3 points

QB rating 107 - 116 = 2 points

QB rating 97 - 106 = 1 point

QB rating 87 - 96 = 0 points

QB rating 77 - 86 = -1 point

QB rating 67 - 76 = -2 points

QB rating 57 - 66 = -3 points

You get the idea. It would be like a bonus or pentalty fbased on how they play NFL wise.

ok then, that is exaclty what xpertsports has. I have not used it yet. It was going to be included in a league we are doing Sunday, but I just noticed it got eliminated from our league rules.
 
Seems like you are trying to boost pocket passer QBs in a round about way. You are double dipping on yards & TD:INT ratio and adding some completion and YPA in there too.

I'd say just add in completions, completion% and YPA and skip QB rating.

Another way to boost the pocket passer is to add in sacks. Those scrambling guys tend to get sacked more.

Plus, QB rating is capped, so on a game to game basis, you'd potentially be leaking points you could've otherwise gotten. It would be like Manning throwing for 400 and 4, but only getting credit for 300 & 3, since yards and TDs have an upper limit in the scoring system.

All I'm really looking to do is boost QB value relative to RB value. I would prefer to use a NFL measureable as that seems the most fitting for creating seperation IMO. Plus, I thought I had read somewhere that the amount of sacks taken by the running vs pocket QBs were rather meaningless. I could be mistaken though.

He would still get the credit for his yds and TDs, just a bonus or pentalty for how well he managed the game from a tangible NFL stat. The thing I want to avoid is say Manning does what you said on 35 atts, yet another QB gets similar numbers but needed 60 atts to do it. I would say Manning was the better and more effective player and should be rewarded for that.

Add more QBs to the starting lineup. That's usually the simplest way to do it. Even if you tweak the numbers to some ridiculous extent to when QBs have super value, you still only need 12ish starters.If you have a higher demand for QBs, you'll have less late round steals for QBs because they'll be going much earlier.

Plus, I thought I had read somewhere that the amount of sacks taken by the running vs pocket QBs were rather meaningless. I could be mistaken though.
That may be true, especially in a total sacks category.I can tell you that on a "pass attempts/sack" basis, Vick gets sacked a whole hell of a lot though.

In 2005, Atlanta was 9th in sacks allowed per pass atttempt and 27th in pass attempts.

In 2004, Atlanta was 2nd in sacks allowed per pass attempt and 21st in pass attempts.

He's probably been sacked more times than Bledsoe the last two years using that as a measuring stick.

This may have zero applicable use for what you're trying to do... but I think sacks should be a part of the QBs stat line.

Yes, in smaller leagues that is exactly what I would do. I've found when you get into leauges of 12+ however, you run into some heavy resistance for starting 2 QBs. People get scared (as they should IMO) that there just isn't enough to go around due to the injury/pull bug that hits QBs.

Attempts by themselves are not calculated into QB rating at all, so 60 vs 35 attempts may have very little change on the QB rating.YPA is included...

I just plugged the following stats into the QB rating calculator.

QB1:

60 attempts

36 completes (60%)

390 yards (6.5 YPA)

3 TDs

0 INTs

QB rating: 95.8

QB2:

30 attempts

18 completes (60%)

255 yards (8.5 YPA)

3 TDs

0 INTs

QB rating: 120.8

So on your scale, that's a difference of 3 FP. Obviously you could make it more.

So keep in mind QB1 had an additional 5 FP from the extra yards and the more efficient QB was still worth less... In fact, you may just be compacting the QBs more instead of causing more seperation between the top and bottom guys (eroding their value compared to RBs), unless you are giving out huge bonuses for QB rating.

Yes, but the question is if your scenario is customary or not. That is why I would like to see if anyone has used this before. Does it help create seperation and value amoung QBs or not? This could just be an isolated instance you brought up.

Peyton improved quite a bit.Marginal/decent VBD gains in positions 4-12.

Our 16 team league just uses 1 per 20 for yardage and the full 6 points per touch for it's QB scoring. It takes a major set to hold off too long to take your first QB. Last year a couple guys took 2 QBs by the 8th round and got great trade value for them later in the year.Edited to add: Our league is set up to devalue the RB position so you can actually win without 2 stub RBs. It's a PPR league with the RBs only getting .25ppr while the WR and TE get a full point. Our starting lineups only require you to start 1 RB.

Requirements are: 1QB, 1RB, 2WR, 1TE, 1Flex, 1K, 1D....just thought you may want some suggestions on how to devalue the RB position so the draft is more interesting.
