Chances are, if you are a reader of this site you enjoy football.  Chances are if you enjoy football, you enjoy fantasy football.  Chances are, if you don’t enjoy fantasy football then I just can’t be friends with you.  But I digress…

This will be the first of a weekly feature in which I will recap both the AAC and Cincinnati’s top fantasy performers from the previous week.  I will also make predictions for the upcoming week as well using the following scoring system.  Yes, it’s a Point Per Reception model, sorry if this offends you.

Pass Yards (.05 pts/yard); Pass TD (4 pts); Interception (-2 pts)

Rush Yards (.1 pts/yard); Rush TD (6 pts)

Reception (.5 pts/reception); Rec. Yards (.1 pts per yard); Rec. TD (6 pts)

2 point conversions (2 pts/rush, 2 pts/reception, 1 pt/pass)

Fumble Lost (-1 pt)

Extra Point (1pt); FG 18-39 yards (3 pts); FG 40-49 yards (4 pts); FG 50+ yards (5 pts)

Pts Allowed 0 (20 pts); Pts Allowed 1-15 (10 pts); Pts Allowed 16-30 (5 pts); Pts Allowed 31 + (0 pts)
