I'm using Yahoo default settings. (Normal scoring.) What are you using?

Either way we are getting waaaay off the subject matter.

My point was that I'd sooner start a backup RB against a Vikings run defense than to use a near worthless 2009 Greg Jennings.

He's probably using ESPN's default settings.

Thank you for everyone's opinions. I don't think I'll start Jennings, he has been a disappointment every time I've started him this year. I'm probably gonna go with Forsett or Roy Williams. Forsett looked great last week, and even though he will be against the Vikings defense, I still think he'll be good for 60 yards and a score. Williams has been showing signs of improvement, so there is the possibility of him having a monster game, but I'm skeptical.

eh? No, I'm using Yahoo!

6pt TD
1 pt per 10 receiving yards

Then where are you getting the fractions of points? Normal scoring gives you an even number. Is that giving you the .XX for every yard going into the next 10? I'm not up to doing the math atm.

1 yd = .1 points. We allow down to .01 for accuracy so you get the correct score instead of a rounded score.

Ahh. In normal scoring, or so I thought, you don't get the .XX. You get 1 point for every 10 yards straight up. The yards in between the 10s don't count.

weak sauce!

I highly recommend changing that. One day you will get to witness what I witnessed last year. One of my buddies lost a head to head matchup by exactly .01 points. ::facepalm::

Makes it quite interesting (and much more accurate)!

Yards left over. And, I just realized, ESPN is the same as Yahoo, then.

Still not normal scoring. I'm aware of the fractional point system, but that is not the default system, hence, not normal.

Been commishing the same league for 11 years on Yahoo. I wonder if we picked up the partial points as a default years ago and it is no longer default then. We just carry over the settings from the year before. The only deviations I was aware of was changing safety to 4pt and breaking fumbles into two sections: fumble -.5 fumble lost -1.5 more.

Regardless of scoring format (slightly OT), I still dont' see how jennings is the worst.

Facts are:
-Smith & Johnson were much higher rated than Jennings coming into the season.
-To date, Johnson's point total is worst in every league format and Steve Smith is on par or worst than Jennings in all league formats.

Since they were both slated to be better and do not have more points, they are underachieving more than Jennings. Doesn't matter if it's a bad QB or their left ******** fell off. The yardage and TD totals are what they are and they are not where they were projected.

Bottom line though even though we don't agree on who is worst, at least we can agree all three are big fantasy busts as of week 11

I'm just hoping they all turn it around because I've got all three of them in different leagues!

Gotcha, that makes sense since it's a carry over league and you have the option to keep the settings from prior seasons.

Hopefully Calvin Johnson can have a few big games to close out the fantasy season the next few weeks. I think Steve Smith is getting back on track. Jennings is a phenomenal player, I just have no faith, nor will put any stock into him from what I've seen this season.

Just as an update, this morning, I took out Roy Williams and put in Justin Forsett. Glad I did. 0 for Williams, 14 for Forsett. But, I sit Jennings and he scores 18 ::facepalm::
God, I can NEVER maximize my point total.
Right now, I'm down 5.
He has still playing:
Thomas Jones, Chad Johnson

I have still to play:
Matt Forte, Greg Olsen
Still playing:
Nate Kaeding
