Yes, Al B., I agree. We did it that way to overcome the "LB only" mentality.

1-2-2 produced a lot of defensive scoring - maybe a bit too much. I'm thinking we might roll that back to 1-1-1 or 1-2-1 this year. Just a thought.

In for the D/ST league.

personally I liked 1-2-2. Felt more like a team.

[Al B. Sure!]

What was the breakdown of points for tackles, sacks, and interceptions?

1 point a tackle, 3 a sack, and 5 a pick? 1.5 for half a sack?


And are we doing fractional points? Like assuming 1 point per 20 yards, does a player get 1 point for 25 yards or 1.25 points?

[Koyaanisqatsi]

Think I'm in. I'm not sure yet since I'm getting a time crunch from several directions right now.

[-Jrabbit]

Yes, we did fractional points. Alby, I'm off to Ming's for some CIV tonight, but I'll post last year's IDP league settings tomorrow.

Or you could go find the thread yourself...

I got it...

Defensive Players
Tackle Solo 1
Tackle Assist .5
Sack 3
Interception 3
Fumble Force 2
Fumble Recovery 3
Defensive TD 6
Safety 4
Pass Defended 1
Block Kick 3

Int seems kind of low being equal to a sack. I take it for DB's, everybody picked safeties and not corners because corners don't get too many tackles typically.

[Berzerker]

1-2-1 is fine if you wanna drop one, that should stop the hogging of db kick returners

but I'm fine with 1-2-2 too

[OzzyKP]

Yea, I'm in for the team defense.

I think we had to boost sacks a bit at some point to make dls viable, probably back when we were using 3 generic d players. But sacks can be dropped a pt since we're all playing one, dont matter to me much. That would of course place more value on lbs who qualify at dl, oh well...

as I recall, the team D league counted team ret yds last year and the idp league counted for individual k ret yds.

[-Jrabbit]

Correct - we did include return yds, so several CBs who return KO and punts were drafted.

One of the things I find most annoying about D/ST is (in most leagues) special teams don't get credit for return yds (or TDs). Or ST tackles for that matter. I mean, WTF. When you look at the stats being used, it's really just turnovers and the kicker. No "special teams" scoring to speak of. It should be "D/K".

[Tuberski]

I'll do both or either one.

ACK!

Depends on the player and the team.

I went with Bethea and Polamalu, but that position gave me fits all year.

Holy moderator action, Batman!

[OzzyKP]

Someone had to do it.
