    Allow the option to create a weekly head to head categories league for fantasy football, like you can in all of the other fantasy sports yahoo offers.

    I love the rotisserie scoring system, and I think that it would be awesome to play a Fantasy Football rotisserie league.

  • Jimmy Football commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes I would mark this as critical to the upcoming season. More flexible scoring for defenses points allowed especially! (Have ability to make all points allowed the same value or just simply add more tiers.

    ESPN has additional tiers but sleeper allows for a total points allowed metric. This way the points subtracted for points allowed are all the same and wouldn’t be as severe as the arbitrary tiers!

    Leagues should have 10 teams instead of 12, too many dead teams with dead players in the COVID era.
    Weekly adds needs to be 6, 4 isn't enough with injuries and COVID
    When Yahoo does 2 weeks instead of one, can't have adds at 4 or my proposed 6, injuries' and COVID make it near impossible to field a team at times.
    Goalie minimums should be 180 minutes not 3 games, a goalie playing for 2 minutes isn't playing a whole game and shouldn't count as a whole game

    +1 for Takeaways

    Please please please please give us penalty yards for pass interference. Way too many times players in my league feel cheated when their WR should have had a 40 yard catch but it was negated by blatant PI. This would be a godsend.

    penalties drawn as a category?

  • Phillip Hood commented  ·   ·  Report

    This would make all field goals 3 points (or add for longer FG) but special teams would accrue the points.

    Scoring: YAC and AIR YARDS

    We'd like to see a YAC scoring option for receptions and Air Yards for QBs (instead of passing yards on a 1 yard shovel pass that goes 99 yards)

    +1 for a Shootout Goals category

  • Anonymous commented  ·   ·  Report

    ESPN does it. Come on, Yahoo, try to keep up with the competition!

  • Richard McMakin commented  ·   ·  Report

    Give us another FG category of 60+ yard makes and misses (60 is the new 50). 60-yarders are rare, but are huge plays.

  • Jeff Hedstrom commented  ·   ·  Report

    I'd like to see 4th down stops for defensive scoring, as well as forcing a 3 & out.

  • Mark Dudley commented  ·   ·  Report

    Let’s add penalty yards as an option. For example, your receiver draws a pass interference call. Allow for the wide receiver (and qb) to get those penalty yards at a point value of your choosing. And then on the flip side of your player gets called for taunting or offsides or holding or false start or illegal motion or whatever the call against your player is. Make those penalty yards either plus or minus depending on the penalty. Some would help your player and some would count against your player. Depending on the nature of the penalty. Or just pass interference calls allow the receiver that drew that penalty to get the yardage counted towards his player’s stats. At a point per penalty yards of your choosing. Like maybe only a half a point per pentalty yard. Whereas your league may could have a different point rate for regular yardage

    Not sure if the NHL or anybody tracks this, but I think shot assists would be a cool stat. You would get points for a pass that leads to a shot on net.

    Suggestion . Points for defense knocking down a pass (.25 or .50) points

  • Mike Caputo commented  ·   ·  Report

    My league enjoys yards and points allowed by the defense scoring, as it gives a better indication of how the defense played. However, the ranges for yards and points allowed are too large, especially yards allowed. If yahoo offered custom yards allowed, each league could alter what they think is appropriates scoring for yards/points allowed. If we do not have the option to alter the setting, then please make the yards allowed 50 yard increments and not 100 yard.
