I hear you, lets look at the D scoring in the offseason then and fix all that.

Yahoo only awarded Chicago D/St  x5 Three and outs but I watched every down of that game and the GB punter had 9 kicks.

Am i missing something obvious ?

Silly question, but were the other 4 punts after GB moved the ball a bit, i.e. got a first down or more so not 3 and out?

I have managed to win with the lowest points total of all this weeks winners! 

Watched the game at the sports bar in resorts world with a friend who is back from the US for a bit and happens to be a Dallas and Blues fan..... it was not an enjoyable experience!  Potentially the worst defensive display i have ever seen from the Giants, just pathetic from all 11 positions and the DC.  I dont see that side of the ball getting much better, which is a shame as i think behind this rebuilt Oline, Barkley could have a serious shot at breaking records.

Having said that i think Dallas is a very good team and the schedule is a bit more favourable the next two weeks with the Bills and the Buccs so if we struggle in those then its going to be a very long year and we might as well throw things over to Jones if we come out of those games without a win.

Wanna trade Brady for Rivers?

Brady and D.Johnson for Rivers and Connor?

@kkr just a question... at what point in the season will your avatar change to Daniel Jones?  

Probably next season imo, Eli is going to have a decent year.  We have an oline and a run game now.

Will keep it as is unless we get a few asking to postpone in the next few minutes.

Cant change it to 21:30 now, could do 22:00 or postpone to tomorrow?

I'm completely unprepared for the draft this year and its too little too late to start planning a cunning strategy now!

To confirm compared to last year,

Its 0.5 ppc instead of 1ppc.

its 2ppr instead of 1ppr

QB completions gone down from 1 to 0.5

all milestone bonuses have been decreased

So WRs and TEs will score more especially ones who catch alot but QBs and bellcow RBs will score less?

also have we changed anything on Def?

I think this covers most changes.  Its the same for defense but all scoring settings should be reviewable to all managers under the settings on the league tab on Yahoo.

Just updated in reverse order to the above, so The Brown Stuff with the #1 pick and Maq Attack last pick.

Its a snaking draft: In Snaking drafts (standard), pick order reverses each round. So, the team with the first pick in odd-numbered rounds gets the last pick in even rounds. Non-snaking drafts don't reverse, so the same team gets the first pick in every round.

I manually set the order last night from Brumericans first post in this thread but i think i **** up and need to reverse it by the looks of things!  Did i really finish 3rd last year!?

1.Maq Attack  14th

2.Lancs Villans  13th

3.The PlayBook of Eli  12th 

4.Brown Dolphins  11th

5.Old Kodjias  10th

6.Filthy Fellas 9th

7.rhyscartwright_avfc  8th

8.Punters Unanimous 7th

9.Great Olof's Vikings  6th

10.London Champs  5th

11.It Ertz when Eifert  4th 

12.Rodney's Trotters  3rd

13.Lockett Like Its Hot  2nd

14.The Brown Stuff  1st

Just a reminder that the draft is scheduled for this Monday 02/09/2019 at 21:00BST.

Updated to the default points? 

If so, could we look at making 6 points for a QB TD? Every other position is 6 points.

Updated to what is in my post above.  QB TD's at 6 still.

I've updated it with the above for now, if there are any further amendments or suggestions post them here for discussion.  I set the draft to 02/09/2019 at 21:00BST, but can happily shift this if necessary also.

There was no guarantee that Jones would have been there later in the draft.  If you like a QB enough to be the franchise you go and get him.  I liked what i saw on his first drive the other night and hope he is a resounding success so he can stick it to the scumbag media who were trashing him, the selection and the Giants.

Lets work through current offensive scoring then keeping in mind that it has always been a PPR league and alternative scoring system.  Currently set as follows:

How about the following?

I'm not fussed either way . I'd rather have WR's get 2 points per catch and TE's 3 points.

Like this idea.

Do we just want to nerf RB's or bump the stats of all the other positions?  I liked the points per rush on RB's because it added more value to backs on the waiver wire later in the season when you need to find something off the scrap heap to remain competitive if your stud RB goes down injured.  Happy to apply this same standard to WR's, TE's etc whilst perhaps nerfing the bonuses and scoring on QB's a tad?

I like what we have done with the Oline and we seem to have depth in the secondary now, but i have big questions about the receiving corps and edge rushers.  Somewhere from 4-11 to 8-8 i feel.

Shall we take a vote on the RB scoring changes then?

In

Talk of Rosen or trade up for Murray.  The team has been in rebuild mode for a number of years now, just without admitting it to the fans.

That being said, if they can get a RT in FA, the Oline will be rebuilt to give Saquon and whoever takes over from Eli a platform to succeed.  Then on to the defense before we can look to compete again.

Just waiting for psychotic rant from @kkr

I'm ok with it.  I would have liked another pick or two in there but compared to the AB trade i think the Giants did ok with a player who clearly didnt want to be with the team anymore and is the archetypal diva receiver.  Had things carried on we would be in AB territory with no choice but to trade him and for peanuts.  Probably a year too late, but not too too late either.

Whilst an incredible talent he missed 25% of the games through injury, had the infamous boat party before a playoff loss to the Packers, did an interview last season saying he wasnt sure about being with the team anymore and by all accounts was a locker room cancer.  I'm happier to build in the trenches, find a new QB to take the torch from Eli and hand the reigns over to them and Saquon as faces of the franchise rather than OBJ.

We lost with him, we can rebuild and hopefully get better without him. 

That being said he should do well In Cleveland if Mayfield, Landy and OBJ can all co-exist.

Time to change my avatar!

Strange game, but another masterclass from Belichick.  Congrats to the PATs!

Well done Rams, lets go Saints!

What the hell went on in the championship match!?  

Not sure if we discussed moving playoffs forward a week in previous years but something to consider for next year due to the shit show that is week 17?

Happy with 3rd though.
