## Outputs

| Key | Label | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| total | Fantasy points | Passing + rushing + receiving + other points. |
| passing | Passing | Passing yards ÷ yards per point + passing TDs × points + interceptions × points. |
| rushing | Rushing | Rushing yards ÷ yards per point + rushing TDs × points. |

| standard | Standard total | The total with 0 points per reception. |
| half | Half PPR total | The total with 0.5 points per reception. |
| ppr | PPR total | The total with 1 point per reception. |

## Method

Points = passing yards ÷ 25 + 4 × passing TDs − 1 × interceptions + (rushing yards + receiving yards) ÷ 10 + 6 × (rushing + receiving TDs) + points per reception × receptions + 2 × 2-point conversions − 2 × fumbles lost, with the league’s own numbers when typed.

## Assumptions

- The default settings are Yahoo’s default league: half a point per reception and fractional yardage points.
- Standard scoring gives 0 points per reception, half PPR 0.5, PPR 1; the other settings stay the same.
- Whole increments give a whole point for each full increment only, rounded toward zero for negative yards.
- Return touchdowns, bonuses and defense or kicker points are not counted.

## FAQ

### How are fantasy football points calculated?

With default scoring, 1 point per 25 passing yards, 4 per touchdown pass, −1 per interception, 1 point per 10 rushing or receiving yards, 6 per rushing or receiving touchdown, 2 per 2-point conversion and −2 per fumble lost, plus any points per reception.

### What is the difference between standard, half PPR and PPR?

Only the points per reception: 0 in standard, 0.5 in half PPR and 1 in PPR (points per reception). A running back with 4 catches scores 2 more points in half PPR and 4 more in PPR than in standard.

### How many points is a 300-yard, 3-touchdown game for a quarterback?

With 1 interception and 20 rushing yards: 300 ÷ 25 = 12, plus 3 × 4 = 12, minus 1, plus 20 ÷ 10 = 2, for 25 points.

### What are fractional yardage points?

Each yard counts: 87 receiving yards at 10 yards a point are 8.7 points. With whole increments, only each full 10 yards counts, so 87 yards are 8 points. Yahoo’s default league uses fractional points.

### Does my league score interceptions as −1 or −2?

It depends on the league: Yahoo’s default is −1, and many leagues use −2. Turn on Change the scoring settings and type your league’s number.

### Are return touchdowns, kickers and defenses counted?

No. The page scores passing, rushing, receiving, 2-point conversions and fumbles lost for one offensive player.
