I fucking won!?!?
Yeah... it was damn close. I'd put in one guy's numbers and Sam would take over, or TKO, and then you again... Ellington and Joique falling off plus Romo coming on gave it to you.

Okay, Joe mentioned things were slow, so I'll go ahead and get this going again.

As a reminder, Treff won last year by an eyelash over Sam and TKO.

Rank your top 24 QBs and top 36 RBs (standard scoring with 6-pt passing TDs).

Simplifying the points for our game - you get the average weekly FF points of every player you rank, minus the difference between him and whoever actually holds that position.

Example: Forte ended up 4th last year with 14.44 pts per week.
  • If you had him 4th (like Ram did) you'd get the full 14.44
  • If you ranked him too high - say 1st (like TKO did), you'd take away the difference between Forte (14.44) and the actual top RB Murray (17.63). That difference is 3.21, so TKO would have ended up with 11.23 for Forte (14.44-3.21).
  • If you ranked him too low, say 7th (like Milk did), you'd take away the difference between Forte (14.44) and actual #7 Charles (12.31). That difference is 2.13, so Milk would have ended up with 12.31 for Forte (14.44-2.13).
("Per week" means week a player's team plays, regardless of whether he takes the field.)

Note that this especially helps good picks on sleepers. Treff got unfairly dinged for picking Ingram last year because Ingram overperformed (tied for 14th when Treff had him at 34); in this system Treff would have gotten some credit.

Deadline for submissions is August 1.
I'd be interested, I take it any of us can enter a submission, err how do I do that?

Well I gotta thank Foles, RGIII, and Murray for performing as I expected. ..should have trusted my gut and had the 2 QB's even lower though.

Under the new system, believe it or not, you would not have been last, Foot.

Yeah, he had CJ at 9 and Gerhart at 1. Those two really hurt him. I can't talk though - I had Ball at #1.

All you need to do is send/post Wil your rankings of the QB and RB. The thing to remember with this "game" is that you need to list them how they finish 2015. So your list may be a little different than a pre-season ranking list. (Some rank the same way - how they see the players finishing. But some rank players based on value.)

By the way, please be sure to differentiate your Murrays, Bells and Johnsons. (You'd hate to end up with the wrong Johnson.)
