How does Flacco score 0 points?

1 point for every 50 passing yards? are you serious? talk about deflating the QB position.

john kasay got 5 points for kicking a 52 yard field goal. a quarterback has to throw for over 200 yards to equal that.

if a kicker kicks 3 40 yard field goals he gets 12 points. a QB has to throw for 600 yards to get 12 points.

U must have forgotten to submit him to your lineup.

no, its the scoring that is mess up. he got 1 point for every 50 yards passing (4 for the first 200) then had -2 for a fumble and -2 for an interception.

espn fantasy flacco's exact same performance earned him 6 points.

at yahoo he earned 5.12 points

1 point per 50 is a little out of wack.

oh, and check this out

a WR gets 1 point per 10 yards receiving plus a 1 point bonus for receptions over 40 yards. so if a QB throws a 40 yard pass, the WR gets a total of 5 points for the play and the QB gets ZERO!

if they connect for another 40 yard pass, the WR now has 10 points and the QB has just 1 for the 80 passing yards. (for the first 50 only).

oh, WR's also get .5 points per reception so that's another bonus point for the two catches so he really has 11 points. of course the QB gets no bonus for completions.

man this league is stacked heavy against the QB.

man this league is stacked heavy against the QB.

you just get dumber and dumber with every post...if you checked the scoring from last year (using the same rules), you'd find it was pretty balanced among offensive players (yes, including the QBs).

The points system was tweaked last year to bring balance to the league. The previous year (2008), QBs were worthless. Last year A LOT of tweaking and testing was done to make as evenly as possible, the number of QBs, RBs and WRs in the top 60 (or maybe even 100) in the league.

After 2 weeks, the Top 53 scorers break down as:

QB - 12

RB - 13

WR - 16

There are 5 Tight Ends and 7 Defenses to complete 53. Clearly, QBs aren't getting a fair shake :rolleyes5:

I'd like to see how our scoring system could be tweaked to make it any more balanced.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
