That’s what I have. Last column with boosters. So it looks like 3rookie will win the booster. And Whiskey and MountainHawk are at risk. Whiskey needs 25 to survive and 75 to avoid using his booster.
In the interest of clarity: Until this discussion came on, I would’ve been scoring Marks TD as a TD - I believe that’s how we’ve dealt with it in the past. The intent of the rule:
is that all credited TDs count that are scored when the offense is on the field at the start of the play (versus special teams). I’m pretty sure we’ve given credit for TDs where there’s been a fumble at/near the endzone and recovered by another offensive player, but (a) we don’t have the full history to confirm that anymore, and (b) I’m not going to do the research to verify it.
So I ask y’all, especially the grizzled veterans of this game - am I mis-remembering things?
I don’t remember any specific cases something like this occurred.
I always felt we went by the box score.
If the play isn’t listed under Passing / Rushing / Receiving it wasn’t included
If we included this you would be obligated to go through the play by play for additional yardage on fumble advances. Or make it incumbent on the player to check for themself. This stands out because he scored and people followed the specific game.
I vote to not count the 67 points. It would be a tough precedent for the future
It certainly was unintentional, as Stroud was clearly concerned and was not faking a QB sneak.
Had the ball not touched the ground, it would have been a Marks rushing TD. That seems trivial. Also, I would have to believe this game has credited fumble recovery TDs in the past.
But what about an offensive player playing defense and somehow scoring a TD? Where are the by-laws?
I think it would be at most 61.
And you prove the point that reading play-by-play makes assessing the points not as clean and straightforward as the scoring in this fame normally is.
I think this gets to UA?'s line about “when the offense is on the field.” Which, i believe was originally intended to address punt/kick return scores.
However, this does remind me of when julian Edelman scored on TD on kickoff coverage on a fumble return. I was starting him in a yahoo FFB league and got no points for the play and ended up losing by under 6 points. I was quite salty about that loss.
I expect Waddle will make it a moot point. If I was running it I probably wouldn’t count it just because I’d want to keep it simple to run and just pull from the box score, but I don’t think my vote should matter given I’d be out if it counts.
I think you two are talking past each other a bit.
Nearly all fantasy football scorinh includes the category “offensive touchdown” as a catch all for this type of play. So, as EC said, it is credited in all standard scoring leagues as a TD for Marks.
But, you are also correct, that it is not listed in the box score under rushing, receiving or passing, which are the categories that UA? laid out in the OP.
