Smashup Sports utilizes a form of scoring players based off of the standard scoring method. There are a few variations compared with the standard scoring so please review the following information carefully. Keep in mind that Smashup Sports does NOT incorporate PPR or half-PPR scoring.

All data for player statistics are gathered through our third party data provider and all scoring calculations are based off of this data. Smashup Sports is not responsible for the accuracy, nor for any corrections, changes, and updates to the data that is provided.

QB/RB/WR/TE

For all players with a QB, RB, WR, or TE designation, scoring is calculated in the following way.

  • PASSING

    • Every passing yard = 0.04pts

    • Every passing TD = 4pts

    • Every passing 2pt conversion = 2pts

  • RUSHING

    • Every rushing yard = 0.1pts

    • Every rushing TD = 6pts

    • Every rushing 2pt conversion = 2pts

  • RECEIVING

    • Every receiving yard = 0.1pts

    • Every receiving TD = 6pts

    • Every receiving 2pt conversion = 2pts

  • MISC

    • Passing interception = -2pts

    • Fumbles lost = -2pts

Scenario 1

Jalen Hurts (QB) has the following statline: Threw for 267yds, 3 TDs, but had 1 interception. He also ran the ball for 112 yds and 1 TD.

Score = 267 * 0.04 (passing yds) + 3 * 4 (passing tds) + 1 * -2 (interception) + 112 * 0.1 (rushing yards) + 1 * 6 (rushing TD) = 37.88pts

Scenario 2

Christian McCaffrey (RB) has the following statline: 156 yards rushing with 2 rushing TDs, 2 lost fumbles, 67 yds receiving with 1 receiving TD.

Score = 156 * 0.1 (rushing yds) + 2 * 6 (rushing tds) + 2 * -2 (fumbles) + 67 * 0.1 (receiving yds) + 1 * 6 (receiving tds) = 36.3pts

Scenario 3

Cordarrelle Patterson (RB) is an all purpose player and the Falcons like to utilize him all over the field. Here is his statline: 89yds rushing, 56yds receiving with 1 receiving TD, 45yds passing with 1 passing TD.

Score = 89 * 0.1 (rushing yds) + 56 * 0.1 (receiving yds) + 1 * 6 (receiving TD) + 45 * 0.04 (passing yds) + 4 * 1 (passing TD) = 26.3pts

K

For all players with a K designation, scoring is calculated in the following way.

  • Every FG made (0-39yds): 3pts

  • Every FG made (40-49yds): 4pts

  • Every FG made (50+): 5pts

  • Every FG missed: -1pt

  • Every extra point made: 1pt

  • Every extra point missed: -1pt

Scenario 1

Jake Elliott (K) goes 2 for 2 on extra points and 3 for 4 on field goals, making field goals of 29yds, 31yds, and 46yds, but misses one at 48yds.

Score: 2 * 1 (extra point) + 2 * 3 (FG between 0-39yds) + 1 * 4 (FG between 40-49yds) + 1 * -1 (missed FG) = 11pts

Scenario 2

Brett Maher (K) goes 1 for 3 on extra points and 1 for 3 on FGs making a field goal at 35yds but missing a 29yd and 51yd field goals.

Score: 1 * 1 (extra point) + 2 * -1 (missed extra point) + 1 * 3 (FD between 0-39yds) + 2 * -1 (missed FGs) = 0pts (scores can be 0 or even negative)

DEF

For all players with a DEF designation, scoring is calculated in the following way. Points allowed refers to defense points allowed, which is not necessarily equal to total points allowed. Defense points allowed counts only points scored by the opposition for which the defense and/or special teams was on the field.

  • 0 points allowed- 5pts

  • 1-6 points allowed – 4pts

  • 7-13 points allowed – 3pts

  • 14-17 points allowed – 1pt

  • 28-34 points allowed - -1pts

  • 35-45 points allowed - -3pts

  • 46+ points allowed - -5pts

  • < 100 yds allowed – 5pts

  • 100-199 yds allowed – 3pts

  • 200-299 yds allowed – 2pts

  • 350-399 yds allowed - -1pt

  • 400-449 yds allowed - -3pts

  • 450-499 yds allowed - -5pts

  • >= 500 yds allowed - -6pts

  • Touchdowns scored – 6pts

  • Interception – 2pts

  • Fumble Recovered – 2pts

  • Blocked Punt, FG, Extra Point – 2pts

  • Sack – 1pt

  • Safeties – 2pts

Scenario 1

Philadelphia (the defense you have) played Dallas. The defense had 7 sacks, 2 interceptions, and 1 fumble recovered. They also blocked a punt and took a kickoff return for a touchdown. Dallas ended up having 246 total yards and scored 13 points.

Score: 7 * 1 (sacks) + 2 * 2 (interceptions) + 1 * 2 (fumble) + 1 * 2 (blocked punt) + 1 * 6 (Kickoff return for a touchdown) + 2pts (for the 246 yards) + 3pts (for the 13 points scored against) = 26pts

Scenario 2

The New York Giants (the defense you have) played San Francisco. The defense had 2 sacks and a punt return for a touchdown. San Francisco ended up with 465 yards and scored 36 points.

Score: 2 * 1 (sacks) + 1 * 6 (punt return touchdown) + -5 (465 yards bucket) + -3 (36 points bucket) = 0pts

Scenario 3

New England (the defense you have) played Las Vegas. New England defense dominated the game with 5 sacks, 1 interception (that was returned for a touchdown), 2 fumbles recovered – one of those returned for a touchdown as well. They also caused a safety. Las Vegas ended up with 196 yards and only scored 3 points.

Score: 5 * 1 (sacks) + 1 * 2 (interception) + 1 * 6 (interception returned for TD) + 2 * 2 (fumbles recovered) + 1 * 6 (fumble returned for TD) + 1 * 2 (safety) + 3pts (196 yard bracket) + 4pts (3pt scored against bracket) = 32pts
