SDMB Fantasy Football DYNASTY League: Year 17

The Game Room
501

So I put all of the player’s scores for every week for the last 17 years on the spreadsheet. This allows us to ask new questions involving player scoring.

For example - what were the top highest scoring players on someone’s bench?

Rank Player Pos Points Manager’s Bench Season Week
1 Drew Brees QB 49.35 Justin Bailey 2015 Wk 8
2 De’Von Achane RB 49.30 SenorBeef 2023 Wk 3
3 Nick Foles QB 48.70 Dale 2013 Wk 9
4 Derrick Henry RB 47.80 Dale 2018 Wk 14
5 Aaron Rodgers QB 47.55 SenorBeef 2019 Wk 7
6 Mitchell Trubisky QB 46.50 Omniscient 2018 Wk 4
7 Eric Decker WR 45.40 Hamlet 2013 Wk 13
8 Russell Wilson QB 45.40 Dale 2019 Wk 3
9 Darren McFadden RB 44.60 Petey 2010 Wk 7
10 Jonas Gray RB 44.10 Stringer 2014 Wk 11

And what if we just limit this to the playoff teams in playoff games?

Rank Player Pos Points Manager’s Bench Season Week
1 Joe Burrow QB 41.85 Hamlet 2021 Wk 16

This is going to be a long post, but I think very interesting.

These are the top 10 players (or defenses) in TOTAL SCORE over the entire history of our league, no matter whose roster they were on, or whether they were starting or benched. These are the all time fantasy points leaders in our league. This is not a total for the NFL player’s career - if they played before 2009, their early years don’t count. And we also only track weeks 1-16 - so I think if they scored in weeks beyond 17 it also doesn’t count. So this is the effective total scored points in our league during our games.

There are a few cases where a player has more teams played for years than years in the league - that’s counting seasons where he was on the roster for at least 2 teams in one year.

I asked how many total points were scored against a manager by a particular NFL players Sort of like that manager’s player nemesis. The top 10 (nfl) players who scored the most points against a particular manager:

Rank Player Nemesis Total Points Games
1 Tom Brady Hamlet 517.25 25 games
2 Aaron Rodgers RNATB 474.30 21 games
3 Aaron Rodgers Dale 472.75 24 games
4 Aaron Rodgers Petey 469.30 24 games
5 Tom Brady Omniscient 452.30 23 games
6 Tom Brady Stringer 434.80 18 games
7 Drew Brees RNATB 406.15 16 games
8 Matthew Stafford Retrovertigo 383.55 20 games
9 Patrick Mahomes Omniscient 378.30 16 games
10 Drew Brees Ellis Dee 362.60 16 games

So… not a surprise. The long lasting, high scoring QBs, who spent most of their careers with one manager beat up on their division rivals. But what if we exclude QBs?

Here’s the non-QB nemesis list — much more interesting:

Totally awesome. If you wouldn’t mind, I’d love an email with that player data spreadsheet.

505

Based on my deeply analytical research, I reached my peak of assholishness in 2013, when, after finishing second thanks to in game injury issues and a stunning game by Joique Bell. I reached an astonishing .875 Beefs (as we all know that is the standard measure of assholishness). I hit .867 Beefs last year when I won my league leading 4th championship.

506

already sent, I sent you a copy of the new one as soon as it was finished. it’s about 8x bigger than the original - which makes sense, the player scores is most of the data.

I think you miscalibrated a bit sir, you reach at least 2.2 beefs regularly.

I would like to point out that the way the table is labelled, it implies that Hamlet is Tom Brady’s nemesis, and not that Tom Brady is Hamlet’s nemesis. And I enjoy that interpretation. The GOAT football player, man completely driven by ambition and greatness… and the thing that he truly thinks about… is Hamlet.

507

Hmmmm. I just got my Beef-o-meter calibrated by a certified technician at the local AssholesRUs. And it was working fine just last week at my local Union of Asshole Monitors (you likely know them by their colloquial nickname “The Beefers”) meeting.

And Tommy is just pissed about me and Gisele.

Ladies and gentlemen. Mitch Trubisky!

Thanks much, I appreciate it. I hadn’t checked and I’m not currently messing with it is because I am so deeply engrossed playing Abiotic Factor that I’m starting to lose track of days.
