I always hated minus points for missed field goals. Like you said, the guy could miss a 60 yarder or get it blocked and that's the kicker's fault?


Do you get negative points for INTs? What if the receiver drops a pass and it's picked off? QB still gets docked points and nothing happens to the WR.

If you are giving positive points for anything there needs to be repercussions for the negatives (INT, fumble, miss FG etc)

Agreed Gyno. You have to have negative points.

And it just skews the scoring for QBs. So yeah, Dalton may be top 20, but he will still be in the correct order of QBs. TDs are a bit more of a premium as 6, but the scoring will average out for QBs. They will score more points but they are all on the same scoring system, so the ratios will remain in tact.
