"Standings Breakdown" League (1 Viewer)

[Stingdiddy]

I'm in both an overall points league and a "head to head" league. Everyone in the "head to head" league thinks that's the best way to crown a champion and would never consider an overall points league. The same goes for the owners in my overall poinst league in regards to "head to head". Has anyone ever considered a "Standings Breakdown" league?

Anyone who has used CBS Sportsline is probably familiar the "Standings Breakdown" feature provided by CBS Sportsline. In a "head to head" league, this is the true test of the best team in the league when playing with an overall record. Basically, you can see your team's record if you played against every team in your league every week.

Below are the current records/winning percentages of some of the teams in my current league. The records are measured as if we played the entire league and if we played head to head. Please keep in mind, there are 15 owners in the league, so, we play two head to head matchups each week.

Against the entire league, TEAM A would be a stellar 83-28-1 (approximately a 74% winning percentage). Although very good, not as good as the 87.5 winning percentage produced from currently being 14-1-1.

TEAM B: Standings Breakdown = 68-43-1 = 60.7%

Head to head = 11-5 = 68.75%

TEAM C: Standings Breakdown = 62-50 = 55.36%

Head to head = 10-6 = 62.5%

TEAM D: Standings Breakdown = 74-38 = 66%

Head to head = 10-6 = 62.5%

Take a look at the numbers in your league, it's pretty interesting.

It would fun to play every team every week. Monday nights would be incredibly interesting wouldn't they? Imagine the scenario.

The top six in wins in the league after 13 weeks would be the 6 playoffs seeds. Your seeding would depend on how many wins you had. Actually, now that I think about it, seedings really wouldn't matter. Once in the playoffs, you play every playoff team. 4 teams would advance after the first week, 2 teams after the second week and a single team after the final week. If there is a tie between any two teams, overall points would break the tie (this would likely happen).

Basically, this system takes the element of luck completely out of play. Don't you hate it when you're near the top in overall points, but, have a crappy record because of the "luck of the draw"?

Thoughts?

I like this feature in fanball ("Power Rankings") but don't know if I would completely consider it for an actual format since the weekly head to head battle is part of the fun (although part of the agony when you're on the short end of the stick and have a very difficult schedule). I don't think it completely takes out the element of luck but it reduces it a great deal from standard head to head... Personally I think two opponents per week is the best way to go. Only gives you two matchups to focus on rather than the whole league... And it significantly reduces the chance factor of single game head to head.

Plus, what do you do about divisions?

Why would you need divisions?

 

[stevegamer]

I'm in aleague which weights H2H and wekly scorign prowess:

H2H:

Win = 2

Tie = 1

Loss = 0

Scoring:

Top 4 teams = 2

Middle 4 = 1

Bottom 4 = 0

(if ties happen at a break point, add pojnts and split evenly. 2-way tie for 4th = 1.5 per team, 3 way tie for 8th = 0.33 per team.)

So you reduce the matchup luck element, but still have divisions who you play more often.

I guess that depends on how you define "fun". I think it would be alot of fun knowing that if TO scores 2 TD's along with 120 yards on Monday night, I could pick up a win against 4 owners. That to me would be fun It would also be incredibly nerve racking.

MFL calls this "All Play" and the results are available on the Power Ranking Report

So, there's "Total Points" leagues and "Head to Head" leagues. What would a league with this scoring format be called?"Head to Head vs. All" league
