I was just going to mention this.

Gm 1 - Driver vs Jones -6 points
Gm 2 - Packers D vs Peppers -1 point

Those are some close games. I was extremely disappointed that the Jets put up that many points against Miami, leaving me with 1 point for my team D.

I just realized I'm playing you in both leagues. Amazing...LOL!

Yea the QB bonus' are a little whack, should only be a 5 point bonus for 300 yards and you'd think interceptions would be more or at least the same deduction as fumbles. Sucks I got suck with Garrard and Kolb.

The bonuses are not just for quarterbacks, running backs and wide receivers have the exact same bonuses, just scaled for their position. It's not my fault if you have a quarterback who can't throw, a running back who can't run, or a receiver who doesn't get the yardage.

Rushing TDs are also six, as are receiving and defensive touchdowns. Quarterbacks are shown no special preference over any other position in my league. I have Aaron Rodgers, yet I got shredded by Chris Johnson when I played FlaccoFlicker.

If it's such a huge annoyance, I'll edit the bonuses after this week.

[FlaccoFlicker]

me and Pu got a good game going in one of the leagues.Basically deadlocked with one player remaining Driver for me Cutler for him

[XxSizzleXx]

I don't understand why so many people shoot for the blame right away on here? I wasn't blaming anyone I was just stating the bonus's are just eye popping. You state the bonus' are the same but how often is a HB or WR going to put up 250 and 350 yards lol.

Your QB hasn't even played yet either so CJ will obviously have more points than Rodgers since he hasn't started yet.

[Clutch Ravens]

Honestly, I love the bonus point system the way it is now.

It works and makes Elite Quarterbacks incredibly valuable.

Then again, I'm biased 'cause I have Rivers.

Yeah we do. It'll well be close. I really wish Keller would've picked up just 2 yards in the second half last night, it would have given him the 5 point bonus and have me in the lead tonight.

I have Cutler against you tonight, you have Driver.
I have Rodgers against Wacko tonight, he has Finley.

I hoping for a shoot out and ER20 will like this one, all the shoot out passes goes to Jones on GB.

Rivers continually puts up 400+ passing yards, that's 15 extra bonus points. And that's a norm for him. He's a good QB to have in this league.

Okay. I said the bonuses were scaled for their position. Meaning, the bonuses are NOT 200-300-400 for running backs or receivers. Backs and Receivers are 100-150-200. So there is nothing to "lol" about there. Apparently you did not read everything I said, especially how it's scaled down. If you have an elite player, whether it be quarterback, running back, or wide receiver, the bonus points benefit you. It benefits you if your wide receiver is the only "good" receiver on the team. Let's also not forget it's PPR, so receiving running backs (and also receivers) get more points per game than in a "normal" league.

Overlooked that part?

Also, I was thinking of my ESPN with FF about CJ. Regardless though, I do not need you explaining to me that CJ would have more points considering Rodgers hasn't even played yet. I'm not new to fantasy football, even if I were, that's a pretty easy and obvious thing to realize.

[XxSizzleXx]

Naw I got it all, thanks. I was just agreeing and going with the fact that it is a QB driven league.

A WR or RB putting up 100 yards really isn't as common as a QB throwing for 200 yards, if that's what your saying.

And all I was saying is that it's not like quarterbacks are the only players getting bonuses, seeing as running backs and receivers get boosts to their points with PPR. I'm tired of it, after GB/CHI is over I'm removing the 200 yard bonus.

The point is, if you have an elite player, you get more points due to their output.

Although I do not appreciate you acting like I'm an idiot and not able to realize that CJ has more points than Rodgers seeing as Aaron has yet to play.

[XxSizzleXx]

My bad if I offended you, sorry.

Cmon Driver reel me in a couple TD's tonight. I need him to have a big game after Masons disappointing game vs CLE.

[AwakenTheDemon]

I sat Driver in my ESPN league, I just have a feeling he won't have a big game. I'm hoping I don't regret it =X

Man our game is intense. So close. It keeps switching who's leading.

I hate Clark for not catching that TD.

[PuRock]

FF I only need 39 yards from Cutler to get the 5 point bonus. C'Mon Cutler!

The funny thing is if Rogers throws a TD to Driver. I will probably beat Wacko in the ESPN league.

[PuRock]

Well that run by Rodgers takes care of Wacko. Now I just need Cutler to score a td.

[FlaccoFlicker]

ahh Cutler got his 5 point bonus lol he is right at 200...Driver needs a TD

I thought he was 1 yard shy. I was about to break something here. If he threw a TD that would've gave me a huge lead. Now Driver will probably take the lead back for you.

But exactly 200 yards. This is right here is why I love the Bonus.

[FlaccoFlicker]

ive never done a ppr and bonus league so alot of this is wierd do receivers get bomuses too?

[FlaccoFlicker]

aaaand thats my game lol good game PU!

In this league yes. It's at 100. Driver needs 39 I believe.

But that fumble was not good.

I wouldn't give up yet. Green Bay has 3 TO and the 2 min warning. If they can get the ball back, Driver might get some desperation middle passes.

If he gets two catches for 39 yards. You've won. Because Cutler won't be throwing anymore.

Yeah I noticed Wallace got me some extra points with his 100 but I doubt the Pack get the ball back

They will. Though they might lose a timeout because of the challenge.
