The fantasy points accumulated by each player during one (1) weekly scoring period will be multiplied by the number of consecutive weeks in which the player has been on your roster assuming such player’s team progresses through the playoffs. A player can earn bonus point multipliers of 2x, 3x or 4x for a given week based on the number of weeks they were on the fantasy team roster. For example: A user selects Tom Brady, NE in the Wild Card round. Brady earns 15 fantasy points in the first weekly scoring period therefore the participant is awarded 15 points for the first weekly scoring period. If NE advances to the Divisional Playoffs and the participant selects to keep Brady on his/ her roster for the second consecutive weekly scoring period, and Brady earns 20 fantasy points in his Divisional Playoff game, the participant will earn 40 points for the second consecutive weekly scoring period (20 x 2 = 40). Those 40 points will be added to the 15 points earned in the first weekly scoring period for a two-week total of 55 points (15 + 40 = 55). In addition, a user can select Tom Brady, NE in the Wild Card round even if the New England Patriots have a bye into the Divisional Round. In this case, the user would not earn any points for the Wild Card round, but would then be eligible to earn “double points” in the Divisional round, since Brady was on the team’s roster for 2 weekly scoring periods.
Scoring Notes
• Negative Scoring: Note that it is possible for a player to earn negative points in a single week. Some scoring categories result in negative points and if positive scoring does not offset the negative earned points by a player, they will end the week with negative points. For offensive players, the negative point categories are interceptions and fumbles lost, as well as negative yards accumulated in the passing, receiving or rushing yards categories. For Defense/Special Teams, the negative point categories are allowing 28-34 points or allowing 35+ points.
• Offensive Scoring (QB, RB, WR, TE, K): Scoring will be calculated according to the following example: If a QB throws for 200 passing yards, 2 TDs – rushes for 20 yards, 1 touchdown – and has 25 yards receiving, his point total for the round would be: 2 passing touchdowns = 8 points, 1 rushing touchdown = 6 points, 200yds Passing = 8 points, 20yds Rushing = 2 points, 25yds receiving = 2 points; or 26 total points for the round. Please note that, if you have an active QB and an active WR who play for the same NFL team, and your QB throws a touchdown pass to your WR, then you are credited with two touchdowns on the play and you receive 6 points for the receiving touchdown and 4 points for the passing touchdown (10 points total).
• Kicking scores: Kicking statistics (field goal, extra point) can be scored by any individual offensive player, notably your Kicker (K). A team Defense/Special Teams unit (D/ST) will not earn points for field goals or extra points.
• Defensive / Special Team scores (Touchdowns, Fumble Recoveries, Interceptions, Safeties or Sacks): Your defense is awarded points when any one of its members generates either a touchdown, interception, fumble recovery, safety or sack. Your defense also is awarded points for a kickoff or punt return that results in a touchdown. For instance, if your active defense is the Chiefs, and Tyreek Hill returns a punt for a touchdown, your defense (the Chiefs) gets 6 points. But in that same situation, a team using Hill as an active RB would NOT be awarded 6 points for that touchdown.
• Defensive Points Allowed: Only points allowed by a team defense or special teams unit will count towards the defensive points allowed category. Note that points a defense scores off the offensive turnovers of your team defense do NOT count towards points allowed. For example, consider the situation if you are starting the Chiefs Team Defense against the Texans and Alex Smith throws an interception to J.J. Watt, who returns it for a touchdown. Although the Texans scored 6 points on the play, the Chiefs Team Defense did not surrender the touchdown and thus they are not penalized for giving up points. However, any points given up while the special teams unit for the Chiefs are on the field (including a field goal or extra point) do count in this total.
• Team Defensive 2-point Returns: A defender returns an interception or recovers and returns a fumble during a 2-point conversion attempt by the opposing team.
• Defensive Touchdowns: Defensive touchdowns are any touchdowns scored by the defensive team. This includes fumble returns and interception returns.
• Special Teams Touchdowns: Special Teams Touchdowns are touchdowns scored by punt returns, kickoff returns or returns of a blocked Field Goal kick or punt.
• Rounding will NOT be used when calculating points from statistics. For example, 49 yards rushing will result in 4 points. Points will only be scored in integers.
