Thnaks for the effort SteelyDuck, but I am afraid that any list of receiving TEs that has McGee on it but not Christmas is seriously flawed.

Also wondering how those CB rankings come together, some of those guys play on really weak pass defenses. And how can the Danes have 4 LDEs listed when they have just three of those on the DC at that position?

But still fun to look at and think about nonetheless

wow, Madcows offense has the #2 QB and the #1 WR... maybe i dont suck so much. I mastered passing in the running sim

1st point; the reason for Christmas not being in the list is because it is flawed and completely my fault I accidently had him down as a blocking TE (in know!). I’m sure he’ll appear in the next update.

2nd point; they are based off several things (Tk, TFL, Sfty, etc) but mainly PD’s & Int’s per target although as with all the other positions this is purely based on....

The calculations work by taking all the relevant stats and working out what, on average, that DOT would do per play (per rush in this instance), that way it can work out if every DOT had the same chances (for example if each had 10 rushes) what would happen.

This way it prevents certain spamming of DOTs getting all the plays and obviously then having better stats then those that get a limited amount and not show what they’re really made of (much like how the GLB MVP works), this system gives everyone a chance to shine.


3rd point; all positions are limited to archetypes not roster positions as I’m sure you’ll agree would be impossible for me to keep track of maybe I should change the position names to archetype sets....?

Really curious about your formula, Jarlsson is second in Alpha in passing yards, passing TDs, completion %, fourh in yards per attempt, and yet he only ranks 5th on your list. What else are you including in the formula?

Nevermind, I see that you use a "per relevant snap" in there. Might be hard to do, but you might want to include some kind of "usage rate", taking into account how many of the teams total plays the player is actually involved in. Seems a bit weird that the two Danes's QBs should rank above Targaryen or Jarlsson for instance.

Good idea, I'll look into and see if it's possible without taking up too much time, it's already pretty consuming as it is

Scat backs (HB) – Top 5
1..........Lucky Juke – L.A. Halos – Mightyhalo (http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=1977841)
2..........Lone Wanderer – Alpine – Snakebite99 (http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=1707559)


The #1 guy on this list has 6 receptions while the #2 has 32 receptions



- Also, you might want to reconsider our Blitzer as the #1 ROLB considering we haven't had him on the depth chart since game 1


- And this DE is #2 in zeta d mvp rankings, 6 sacks, 6 ffum and 1 INT (lol) and not even in the top 5

Should probably post this in the OP really, this usually explains anyone’s questions

To specifically answer the HB question;
In any particular game each time he is targeted, chance at a reception based on adjusted stats
Lucky Juke: .68%
Lone Wanderer: .89%

In any particular game each time he is targeted, average yards he is liable to get based on adjusted stats
Lucky Juke: 13.42
Lone Wanderer: 8.37

In any particular game each time he is targeted, average YAC he is liable to get based on adjusted stats
Lucky Juke: 10.20
Lone Wanderer: 1.28

Similar thing for drops, TD’s etc.

Each category is then weighted by importance as well to come up with an overall score.


Hope this goes some way to explaining it. If not the bold part of the quote should help

2..........Mad Kai – Mexican Misfits – MadCow DTD (http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=1839885)

Dot is on Alpine

The info might be somewhere, but why do dots get listed under different positions than they play? E.g our middle linebacker being and outside LB here or the LDE being RDE?

Left Defensive End – Top 5
1..........Clementine O'And – Valhalla Fighting Danes – SrednaD (http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=1798560)
2..........Sorte Slyngel – Valhalla Fighting Danes – kongemeier (http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=1813849)
3..........Clinton Blisand – Valhalla Fighting Danes – MrJones (http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=1808907)
4..........Jacob von And – Valhalla Fighting Danes – SrednaD (http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=1784340)

We got the strength

Nice job.

Since 'therapy question mark' doesnt have an archetype I'll set him as a blitzer in future

Fixed. Sorry the list was from last season and I thought I caught all the trades, obviously not

lol i didnt even see that. I forgot to even look in zeta. hell last season my other G was a top 3 G in alpha and now he isnt rated, but my other G is ranked who sucked last season....oh and lolrob

Thanks for doing these Steely

Curious as to why London has the Leagues

no1 yards - no1 TDs
no4 yards - no3 TDs
no5 yards - no2 TDs

for receiving (all WR's)

yet none are in the top 10 WRs for Zeta alone.....
