    But yeah i fully support 1yd= 0.1 points. I hope Yahoo seriously considers this for 2016

  • TONY YACULLO commented  ·   ·  Report

    60+ yds would be included, cause you'd still be getting 1yd= 0.1. For example 63 yd FG would be 6.3

  • [Deleted User] commented  ·   ·  Report

    Can we just do .1 pts for every yard over 30, that way it's still a minimum of 3, and 60+ yard FGs are included too

  • Michael commented  ·   ·  Report

    I would also like to give bonus points for a GAME WINNING FG.

  • Michael commented  ·   ·  Report

    Is it possible to add Punters to Yahoo Line ups? My league would like to expand the kicking game.

  • Ryan McNamara commented  ·   ·  Report

    I've been wondering about this exact issue for years. I think it is extremely important. A 40 yard field goal is way different than a 49 yard field goal and should be treated that way.

    At least give us the option to have decimals for kickers or not. Many of the third party fantasy football sites use this (FleaFlicker). I don't see why it is so difficult to implement.

    As a Yahoo Fantasy user since 2006 at the age of 12, I think these types of ideas are necessary for Yahoo to implement to stay at the top of the industry.

    Just got here via yahoo! chat, I totally agree with this if your WR RB get their actual yardage so should K. They should allow to chose 1 point per 10 yards. Then have separate for missed FG as some leagues will chose not to use that. I would not want to penalize a K for having missed a 55yd FG cause they need to tie/win a game. You shouldn't penalize a kicker for such a difficult kick.

  • Anson Oda commented  ·   ·  Report

    i put all 3 votes, but as long as you can do fractional negative pts for misses too.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    Hey Anonymous -- Your equation doesn't start with zero.
    Perhaps you meant to say starting with the zero yard line?
    I would call it the goal line.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    I'd prefer a base value starting with zero.
    Please consider 2 points + .1 point for each yard away from the goal line from which the ball was hiked.

    I don't mind adding coaches...you could award points based on wins (its like choosing a team defence) AND challenges won.

  • Chris Brothers commented  ·   ·  Report

    I've been saying this for years. If anyone hits 30 yards or lower they should get a standard 3 points but anything more should be partial points. Even if it's over 50 yards. 59 yard fg gives you 5.9 pts.

  • Chris Brothers commented  ·   ·  Report

    We already have partial point scoring for running and receiving yards so why not field goals. Anything 30 and under should get a standard 3 pts but for example if you hit a 49 yarder you should get 4.9 or better yet a 59 yarder should be 5.9 points.

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    The idea of adding Punters is good.
    I'm not voting for this item because I don't really see how adding Coaches would help the game.

  • Peter Buchanan commented  ·   ·  Report

    Commisioners should have the option to count them. For all the people who oppose goalie stats, just don't include them in your league. But it's silly that yahoo! doesn't even allow it as an option.
