NFL Week 2 - QB Fantasy Challenge - 100% SBD Payout

Image Source

Taking inspiration from @hendrix22's Daily Pitching Contest, as well as his PGA Challenge, I thought I would start up a weekly NFL QB Fantasy Contest. The rules are simple:

Choose 4 QBs

• One from Tier 1
• One from Tier 2
• One from Tier 3
• One from Tier 4

Standard Fantasy PPR Scoring

Offense	Point Value
Passing Yards	25 yards per point
Passing Touchdowns	4
Interceptions	-1
Rushing Yards	10 yards per point
Rushing Touchdowns	6
Receptions	.5
Receiving Yards	10 yards per point
Receiving Touchdowns	6
Return Touchdowns	6
2-Point Conversions	2
Fumbles Lost	-2
Offensive Fumble Return TD	6

Payout

• 1st Place wins 60% of the Post Payout
• 2nd Place wins 30% of the Post Payout
• 3rd Place wins 10% of the Post Payout

Tiebreaker

• In case of a tie in fantasy points, there will be a unique tiebreaker each week.
• The person closest to the correct answer of the tiebreaker wins.
• If still tied after the tiebreaker, the person who submitted their picks first will win.
• This week's tiebreaker is:
  Guess the number of passing yards that Aaron Rodgers will shred Atlanta for.

Deadlines

• If you choose a QB playing on Thursday night, your picks must be in before kickoff of that Thursday night game.
• It looks like the only Saturday games are in Week 15, so we can deal with that then.
• All other picks must be in before kickoff of the first games on Sunday.
