I posted a screenshot of my .02 win over the Savage Hammers on facebook and someone said our defensive scoring makes no sense. The Eagles in Week 3 against the Cardinals put up 22.32 points which seems odd for a team that lost 27-6 while generating no turnovers. Jaguar?

obviously I would have been best to go with Murray/Gore/Benson and put Matthews on the bench (as suggested by Ben Kenobi and Al B Sure) but instead I went with Murray on the bench and went with Matthews/Gore/Benson (as suggested by Slowwhand).
Albert, that's a good thing. We can continue to dispense good advice, have it ignored and ensure that other teams start suboptimal lineups.

1. 22.32 is not a particularly great score for a defense. Note that the Cardinals D put up 44 fantasy points for the same game.Originally posted by Al B. Sure! View Post
2. Eagles D only allowed 21 points (6 were a defensive touchdown, scored against the offense.)
3. Eagles D got 3 sacks and 9 tackles for a loss
4. Eagles D kept the Cardinals below 300 yards of offense.
Was it a good outing? No, more like a barely-above-average outing. But 22.32 is a barely-above-average score for a defense under my scoring.

For reference, defenses by fantasy points per game. Nothing jumps out at me."You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won. If you were a woman, you'd likely be a slut." - Slowwhand, to Imran

It's what I get for starting Steve Smith over Amendola.Originally posted by Sparrowhawk View PostIn the end it didn't matter, as I beat Cold Wizard (giving him his first loss of the season
) by more points than even the worst combination would have given me(sitting Gore...suggested by no one, and not even considered by me).Comment

So as of week 4, Philip Rivers is being outperformed by Andy Dalton in DST."I hope I get to punch you in the face one day" - MRT144, Imran Siddiqui

Andy Dalton is a good QB.
This may have happened before and I just don't remember it. I play Deviations in both leagues this coming week.

The Bears defense got me 42.58 in Auction League - enough to take down Jaguar, who got all of 2.73 from the Jets D. I remember checking it out last night before I shut down, with my first thought being, "How do you like your defensive scoring system now, Jag?"Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011

I lose to Ken in both leagues and AFC was because I had wrong running backs. DeAngelo Williams had twelve and my new pickup, Jackie Battle, got 22 which would have won it for me. Roberts also got 23.9 at WR but again on my bench. Too many wrong decisions again.

FYI, the San Diego Chargers list Jackie Battle as their starting RB:
