- Goal Line Stops
- Penalty Yards
- Customizable Points Allowed Options
- Successful Onside Kicks
- Touchbacks for Kickers
- Dropped passes
-

I agree that SO goals should NOT count in other stat categories but SHOULD be their own category. I think it adds another interesting category for head to head leagues. One more stat where you can draft specifically to fill that void.

Of the many bad ideas brought forth by the NHL in recent years, the shootout is the worst. Get rid of the shootout altogether, I say.

Goalie points and PIMs should count in head to head leagues too!
-
Chris commented
Yes this should be an option. If you don't like shootouts in hockey then you don't have to select it!

The scoring tool allows you to give whatever you want for points, really? Don't be so stupid, learn how to use the tools. Gees !!

I think they should allow commissioners to set their own fractional points if wanted for all scoring. Like 0.10 per yard which would be 1 point for 10 yards. I want to set sacks to 0.5 and completions to 0.25

It's a good idea - point of clarification, though... I'd like to see all FG's up to 39 yards stay at 3 points, then start the fractional scoring at 40 yard field goals. I don't like the idea of a 25-yard field goal only being worth 2.5 points.

This is a great idea. Makes sense from a logical standpoint Makes sense from a competition standpoint. The math isn't difficult. I think this is a no-brainier.

Matt commented
This is a stupid idea. So a 32 yr FG is 3.2? I'd rather make all FGs 3 points.
-
Will commented
Good idea - this (as well as fractional DST scoring) should be an option, and probably default if a league uses fractional scoring for other positions.

Combine them into a +/- and I like

Great idea, but it needs to be updated in real time. Right now our league stats are off by 20-30% until the next day because we use 1st down scoring. Yahoo please update 1st downs in real time like the rest of the stats. Thanks!
If you agree with me, please upvote this issue:

i'm not really a fan of adding such subjective stats to the list, however there is no excuse why there can't be a separate goal, assists, and points category for defensman. As it is right now, in all the scoring formats, defenseman are pretty much irrelevant.

I agree.
In my yearly league we give 3 bonus for goalie assist and 4 for goalie goals.
It's rare but we like having it.

This should only apply to FGs over 30 yards. 3 pts is still the minimum score for a FG. It's so simple and was suggested to Yahoo for at least 4 years. Why does it take so long to get this done?

I would also like to add shoot out goals as an optional category to our pool. We recently decided to switch over from another stat website to yahoo. Can you quickly make this change for our pool?

this is a horrible idea. punting is terrible. i'd sooner see kickers removed than add punters.

for defensive players CBs are not justified. add catches allowed, targets against for every ___ targets, reception yards allowed, and pass rushers credit QB hits/hurries per ____ seconds, goal line stops, game winning stops per player or team defensive... and finally penalty yards... and NO LIMIT TO STAT CATEGORIES please. Trying to get leagues that have actual value of players.

in addition to punting, i would add inside 20, inside 10, hang time 3.5+ seconds, successful onside kicks, 50/60/70 yard punts, touch backs. add 60+yard FG, game winning field goal, (or losing) points for being on a winning team (or losing) for player or head coach

add OL and with categories sacks allowed, tackle 4 loss allowed, pancakes, QB hurries pre 4 seconds, QB hits allowed pre 4 seconds, Passing yards per every 100 offensive yards, rushing yards per every 100 yards, points for certain amount of offensive points scored. Could be individual OL or team OL format.
