Me too. But no gay rules, I'm sick of being in leagues with all these custom weird ass scoring rules. Played in one last year where the QB had the same scoring as the RB's and WR's, which allowed for them to score an ungodly amount of points. I'd outplay some guy, only to have Drew Brees score a hundred points and lose by 50. Also I was in a league with two QB's the year before, that sucked

Ha what? When all your guys outscore him at every position except QB, and Drew Brees scores 85 points it doesn't even matter

I just thought your use of outplay was funny. It seems funny to use that descriptor. Fantasy sports have legitimately become like real sports to many of us. It's ridiculous haha

I thought it was pretty funny as well.

Classyposter maybe next time you should look at the scoring setting before you draft? Then maybe you would have known to get a great QB. 2 QB leagues can be pretty fun. I always like leagues like that. I'm not a fan of IDP or super weird scoring though.

But if anyone is doing a league I'd be down to join it.

I'm in a league that has 2 open spots so it can be qbs, so we can have up to 3 TDs and I freaking love it. Ppr as well, it's great.

And 6 points for passing TDs no doubt. A TD is a TD to me, should be 6 regardless.

I agree with the TDs being 6 points for the same reason Terry said.

What are the team defense scoring settings in your leagues? Last year I set mine up to award defenses more for holding their opponents to low points and bonus points for shutouts. The game is so high-scoring now I think defenses deserve more points for outstanding performances. Good idea or should I change it back to standard?

I will sit one up on the chatter if everyone would like. I would use the same scoring that I use in my other league that I'm commish of. Scoring would be:
Passing td is 6 points
20 yards passing is 1 point
Interception is -2
Rushing and receiving td is 6 points
10 yards rushing or receiving is 1 point
PPR
Return tds are 6 points
25 returns yards is 1 point
2 point conversion is 2 points
Fumbles is -2
Field goals 0-39 yards are 3
40-49 4
50+ is 5
PATis 1
Defense is your basic scoring
3 Points bonus for 300 yards passing or 100 rushing or receiving

I don't understand why passing TDs ever became not worth 6 points? TDs are TDs and they are worth 6. I hate this 4 point TD stuff.
