jrokh 567 Posted September 17, 2018 Where are the guys who were hyping Manning this preseason? *crickets* Don't know who hyped Eli but he wasn't the problem. 75 % completion even dinking and dunking is more than fine, plus he threw no INT.

vuduchile 1,940 Posted September 17, 2018 These 5 yard passes to Barkley are why PPR sometimes sucks. Yeah. That game tonight highlighted why ppr can be sorta stupid. I was going against him in one league and had him in another. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stonewall 647 Posted September 17, 2018 Don't know who hyped Eli Weepaws, I think.....among others Doesn't matter because, heck, we all miss some....it's just that I have been in the DND Eli camp for awhile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RaiderHaters Revenge 3,566 Posted September 17, 2018 I have been trying to incorporate a way to make PPR better, but I havent found a site that will allow what I want for scoring YPC/10 x catches a dude that catches 3 balls for 60 yards that is worth 20/10 =2 x 3 +yards for 12 points total a dude that catches 6 balls for 30 yards that is worth 5/10 =.5 x 6 +yards for 6 points total just a way to make yards a bit more important than actual catches notice both instances would be worth 9 points in PPR another way is to add 1st downs = 1 point Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weepaws 2,452 Posted September 17, 2018 Don’t think Eli had a bad game, looks like he had great stats. I still think he makes the HOF that’s about all I said about him. I think this team is still going to win the nfc east. After years of just doing ppr leagues, and this season all four leagues are non ppr. I feel rekindle about ff again. Don’t think I’ll do another ppr league. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seafoam1 1,878 Posted September 17, 2018 Like I said all preseason, the Giants will start out 0-7. Manning is a terrible QB and a young RB is not what they needed to move the team forward. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,452 Posted September 17, 2018 Oh no, they will be the winner of the nfc east, unlike what you said. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
polecatt 399 Posted September 17, 2018 With that OL that can't pick up a simple stunt or corner blitz? Same thing as last season. The Giants aren't winning anything as long as their OL is complete trash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jrokh 567 Posted September 17, 2018 They are not winning anything if they don't fix the line, but Eli has been fine 69% completion is far from terrible as you said. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoadLizard 73 Posted September 17, 2018 Ive played fantasy for 20 years. Never played a PPR. Why is it still a thing. I never understood why either. Dumbest. Thing. Ever. Why not a point per carry, per step, per breath? Scoring systems are out of control these days. Ill date myself here but I remember when our final scores where more "normal". Like 52-46 or something like that. Now? Its like "Hey man, I won my fantasy game by a score of 157.86 to 139.14. Great, lol. As for the Giants? Ehhhh..... nope. Not going to be a good year. They have some exciting skill players but its going to be a frustrating year for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it aint broke, why mess with it? Scoring systems arent what make fantasy leagues fun. Its the competition, the comraderie and all of that stuff. IMO, frequent scoring system changes, especially in keepr leagues are a BAD thing. People just cant fathom that so and so player got zero points so they have to drum up ways to get them points. Its lame. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its lame. Gotta say that I agree. Commish 4 non-ppr leagues, and insist on no change in scoring settings to preserve historic scoring records, and to keep down the guys who are constantly hollering about needing a change. Hey, I'm not against ppr leagues or "change" in general......just prefer an even flow in my ff life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have played in a wide variety of scoring systems over the years and have found that the more skilled players can adapt to variety. If not then you're just a systems guy. Besides, it's supposed to be fun. It's more fun to have more scoring and bigger scores than just seeing who scored a TD. As long as there is some resemblance to relevance to real football and there is a good balance, I don't see why it matters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
