Welcome to the 2023 edition of 1KYOB!

One Thousand Yards or Bust (1KYOB) is a game that's all about getting as close as you can to 1000 yards each week, via assembling a team of active players from any and all teams in a way which (hopefully!) has their yardage add up to less than or equal to 1000 yards. More than 1000 yards, you bust and you go to the bottom of the rankings for the week. Think of it as somewhere between fantasy football and the casino game of 21! Each week of the regular season corresponds to a week of the 1KYOB season, and the first three weeks of the playoffs correspond to the 1KYOB playoffs. During the regular season I'll sum up everyone's weekly score to keep track of the rankings, which are used to determine the playoff seeding (and any playoff-specific benefits/advantages). Once seeded, the playoffs continue as a series of three strict elimination weeks with only the top 1/3 of the field progressing each week, ultimately leading to a single survivor.....the 1KYOB champion.

If you're a new player and you want to know more, then head down to the 'How do I play 1000 Yards or Bust' section in the second post below. If you're a 1KYOB veteran - welcome back! Head on to the next section.

Notes for returning players

The focus for this year is simplicity and regularity. It's no secret that the scoring has fallen behind schedule in previous years, which naturally hurts the player base's interest in keeping up with the game each week. The complexity of the game has also increased due to more tokens being added, each with their own ruleset and synergy with the other tokens. Most players did not use these tokens so this complexity did not improve the game. So I've made some changes to the rules, and I acknowledge that I need to do a better job of keeping up with the scoring for the game to be interesting.

Firstly, the number of tokens has been reduced. The 'classic' tokens - Rushing defense (Donald), Receiving defense (Professor), QB defense (Watt), and the top-score gamble (Minerals) - all return. The more recent Genius token (normal token refresh) also returns. The remainder - Jennings, Cowardice and Gametime - have been removed.

Secondly, the number of players that make the playoffs will scale with the number of players that we get during the season. In previous seasons it was always the top 27 players, but we've had fewer players than this for at least one season so it makes the regular season feel a bit pointless. The format of the playoffs will be similar, i.e. three elimination rounds coinciding with the Wildcard, Divisional and Conference weeks. The number of players eliminated in each round will also scale with the number of players that make the playoffs.

Thirdly, the value of a particular place will be the same across all weeks, regardless of the number of players that play in each week. Previously, if there were say 20 players in week 1, then first place in week 1 would receive 20 points, second 19, and so on down to 1 for last place. However, if there were only 3 players in week 10, then first place in week 10 would only receive 3 points, no matter how good the player's score was. Due to player attrition during the season, this made later weeks less valuable points-wise and thus submitting an entry became less appealing. It also hurt any players that did end up joining partway through the season as it became harder to catch up to existing players due to there being less points available each week.

So the scoring will be revised to work as follows:
  • The point reward for any place will be the same regardless of the number of players that week. So a 5th place in week 1 with 20 players will be worth the same number of points as a 5th place in week 18 with 10 players.
  • The point reward for each place in the top 10 will scale non-linearly e.g. the point difference between 1st and 2nd will be larger than the point difference between 10th and 11th. This is to further encourage players to push as close as possible to 1000 yards each week.
  • Places 30th and onwards receive no points. It is unlikely that we'll get that many players, so it's expected that all active players will get some points each week even if they bust.

For more info, head down to the 'How do I play 1000 Yards or Bust' section in the second post below.

The MNF Number for 2023

Every entry is required to have one - and only one - player from one of the Monday Night Football teams to be considered a valid entry. This player is referred to as the MNF Number. The name for the mandatory MNF number has changed from season to season and typically refers to the winner of the previous season's Superbowl. Last year it was called the Long Suffering Goofball (or LSG) Number in honour of Matt Stafford, however this year it will be known as...

The Barbecue Enthusiast Number or BBQ for short

He'd be happier if it was rib sauce

Make sure you use BBQ instead of LSG in your entries.

How do I play 1000 Yards or Bust?

The 1KYOB season is structured as follows:
  • 17 regular season weeks, aligning with the regular NFL season; then
  • 3 playoff weeks, corresponding to the Wildcard, Divisional, and Conference weeks.

Every week during the regular season, each player posts list of offensive players and lists whether they wish to count their passing, rushing, or receiving yards for that week's game. The goal is to get as close to 1000 total yards without going over. Only Rushing, Receiving, and Passing yards can be used. The player with the highest total yards <= 1000 is awarded first place for the week, followed by all players that did not exceed 1000 yards in descending order of yards, then followed by all players that exceeded 1000 yards in ascending order of yards. Basically, the further over 1000 yards you go, the worse your score, and not busting always gives a higher score than busting.

At the end of the regular season, the top performing players by overall score will gain entry into the playoffs. The number of players making the playoffs will be based on the total number of players that we get over the course of the season, and over the first two rounds (Wildcard/Divisional) players will be progressively eliminated until we're left with the three finalists. These three will face off in the Conference week and the winner will be crowned the 1KYOB champion!

Apart from gaining entry to the playoffs, players that finish near the top of the table over the course of the regular season will also gain extra tokens to give them a competitive advantage during the playoffs, so it's worth doing better during the regular season to get that edge in the playoffs.

How do I submit an entry?

To submit an entry, post in this thread with the list of players that you want to use for the week. Lists are formatted as such:

DEN - Peyton Manning - Passing Yards
MIN - Adrian Peterson - Rushing Yards
DET - Calvin Johnson - Receiving Yards
BBQ#: PHI - Carson Wentz - Passing Yards (this is your MNF player i.e. BBQ number, see below)

You can use as many players as you like. You don't necessarily have to use the player's native position's stats. Which allows for Matt Ryan's Rushing Yards or a running back's receiving yards. You can use a player more than once but you cannot use the same combination of player and yardage type more than once, e.g. you can list Cam Newton for both Passing and Rushing yards but you can't list Cam Newton for Passing yards twice.

Obviously, players can only be added to a list before their respective games start, so if you wake up halfway through the 1pm games on Sunday and realize you haven't submitted a list yet, you can still cobble one together from the afternoon games and be fine. Once the game of the first player on your list to play starts, your list is FINAL for the week and cannot be edited. If you want to make changes to your list before the games start that's fine, but please alert me to that edit in a separate post.

Every list must have one, and only one, player from Monday Night Football included to be counted. The name for the mandatory MNF number has changed from season to season - this season the MNF number will be called...

The Barbecue Enthusiast Number or BBQ for short

He'd be happier if it was rib sauce

Make sure you use BBQ instead of LSG in your entries.

Lists without a BBQ Number will be disqualified from scoring for the week, and players that include multiple players from the MNF game will only have the one designated as the BBQ Number counted for their score. But, a BBQ Number is the only requirement for a valid score, so if you somehow miss getting an entry in by the end of Sunday, you can always pick the player you think will get the most yards on Monday Night and at least get on the scoring table for the week.

Additionally, your entry can include one or more tokens that have various effects, mostly to protect you from busting! Tokens mostly apply to your BBQ number player, and you start with a limited number at the beginning of the season. Use them wisely! See further down this post for more information on token types, rules, and effects.

How does scoring work?

The highest score of the week without busting is awarded first place for the week. The player with the largest bust (> 1000 yards) - or if nobody busted, then the player with the lowest score - is put in last place. The remaining places are awarded to non-busting players in descending order of score, followed by all busting players in ascending order of score. Unlike previous seasons, the points awarded for each particulare place each week will be the same across all weeks i.e. not dependent on the number of players that week. The points per place are as follows:

  • 1st: 70
  • 2nd: 61
  • 3rd: 53
  • 4th: 46
  • 5th: 40
  • 6th: 35
  • 7th: 30
  • 8th: 26
  • 9th: 23
  • 10th: 20
  • 11th - 29th: 1 point fewer than the previous place i.e. 19, 18, ...
  • 30th and onwards: 0 points

So in a hypothetical week with 5 players A-E scoring 800/995/1005/1050/1200 yards respectively, the following places and points would be awarded:

Player B: 995 yards (1st, 70 points)
Player A: 800 yards (2nd: 61 points)
Player C: 1005 yards (3rd: 53 points)
Player D: 1050 yards (4th: 46 points)
Player E: 1200 yards (5th: 40 points)

So as you can see, the easiest way to succeed in 1KYOB is to A) enter every week (even busting is better than earning no points at all), and B) not bust. Coming short by 200 yards will get you more points than busting by even a single yard. Points are cumulative across the entire 17 week season, so keep playing even if you get off to a bad start! One or two bad weeks won't kill you in the long run.

In addition to the points awarded for each place it is possible to earn bonus points - either via hitting a perfect score of 1000, using the Substantial Minerals token, or by hitting specific targets during special theme weeks. More on these below.

So what happens if someone hits 1000?

Hitting 1000 exactly is extremely rare. Dozens of users submit lists to 1KYOB every week (with many many others doing so infrequently), and perfect scores still happen only once or twice a year, if at all. Therefore, a perfect score entitles you to a bonus of 200 points for that week. And, if you've managed to get a perfect score without getting any busts during the season up to that point, this bonus increases to 300 points. Your stock of tokens will be refreshed as well. So in short, it's really really good to hit 1000 and not constantly play conservatively out of fear of busting because it gives you a huge leg up in the season standings.

Hitting exactly 1000 sounds very unlikely! What happens if I just get really close?

It is true that perfect 1000s are extremely rare, so to liven things up a bit, if you score between 996 - 1000 inclusive then your stock of tokens will be refreshed. Note that the other effects described above will still only apply to perfect scores of 1000.

THEME WEEKS

There are currently three theme weeks planned for this season:
  • MONSTERS OF THE MIDWAY (Halloween)
  • Turkey Bonus Bonanza (Thanksgiving)
  • Santa Droppin' Dimes (Christmas)

There'll be more info on these themes in the coming weeks.

Tokens!

Because 1KYOB is inherently a game about selecting offensive players, tokens were originally created to celebrate the superlative defenders of the NFL as well as introduce another strategic element to the game. Most tokens apply to your BBQ Number player (others have special effects) but you can't cheat and edit them in if you're heading into Monday about to bust: if you haven't declared you're using a token before the first player on your list starts, you're SOL. Each token can only be used once per season unless otherwise noted.

To play a token please either copy and paste the token image or state the name of the token after your BBQ Number.

This year there are five tokens, split into three different categories - Normal, Supplemental, and Special. Each player starts with one of each token. It is not possible to have more than one of any token. You can only use a max of one Normal token per week. You can use as many different Supplemental or Special tokens per week as you wish, provided that you still have them available to use! All tokens are refreshed for the following week if you score between 996 - 1000 for any particular week, and some tokens have special refresh rules in addition to this general rule. All unused tokens expire at the end of the regular season - use them or lose them!

For the playoffs, players that finished at or near the top of the regular season table will be awarded one or more Normal tokens depending on their position to give them a competitive edge during those weeks. So it's worth doing well in the regular season to set yourself up nicely for a deep playoff run!

NORMAL TOKENS

THE ONLY DONALD TOKEN



All other Donalds better step aside
BBCode:
code:
[img]https://i.ibb.co/1d0HBKv/donald-256.png[/img]
Three-time DPotY, one of the best players in football, and a savage disrespecter of the opponent's run game. Nobody will have success running against this Donald.

You may play the Donald Token when your BBQ Number has Rushing Yards specified as the yardage type. If your BBQ Number would bust your score, this token will zero out their score! Can only be used once per season unless refreshed or in certain circumstances, see later.

THE PROFESSOR TOKEN


All wheels, no chair
BBCode:
code:
[img]https://i.ibb.co/njrhtv6/howard-256.png[/img]
Xavien Howard is coming off a season where he accumulated a league-high 10 interceptions as well as an All-Pro nod, making him one of the most disruptive cornerbacks in football. If you've got a high-flying QB that needs their wings clipped, X is your man.

You may play the Professor Token when your BBQ Number has Receiving Yards specified as the yardage type. If your BBQ Number would bust your score, this token will zero out their score! Can only be used once per season unless refreshed or in certain circumstances, see later.

THE BROTHER'S SHADOW TOKEN


Shown here temporarily taking corporeal form after absorbing the essence of another QB
BBCode:
code:
[img]https://i.ibb.co/b3CNQVC/watt-256.jpg[/img]
After leading the league in sacks for the 2020 season and gaining serious consideration for DPotY, Shadow Watt has certainly done enough to separate himself from his future Hall of Fame brother. However, this leaves him adrift and insubstantial - he would much rather attach himself to the opposing team's QB and drag him down into the abyss.

You may play the Brother's Shadow Token when your BBQ Number has Passing Yards specified as the yardage type. If your BBQ Number would bust your score, this token will convert your QB entry to use Rushing instead of Passing yards, as the QB can think of nothing but trying to escape his cursed shadow. If you are already using Rushing yards for your QB entry, this token will zero out their score as the QB remains rooted to the spot in fear. Can only be used once per season unless refreshed or in certain circumstances, see later.

SUPPLEMENTAL TOKENS

THE MERCURIAL GENIUS TOKEN



Remember the good times, not the bad
BBCode:
code:
[img]https://i.imgur.com/ivV4IzN.png[/img]
Note: see the bottom of this post for clarifications on this token.

Marcus Peters is an extremely talented CB who is prone to, uh, 'shifts' in mood that can affect his performance. One week he will smother a #1 wideout so thoroughly that the receiver forgets his own name, the next he's launching flags into the crowd and himself out of the stadium.

You may play the Mercurial Genius token alongside any of the above Normal tokens - it cannot be played by itself. The Normal token acts normally, and if you need it to avoid busting (or if you bust regardless), it will be consumed. However if you do not need the token to avoid busting, the Mercurial Genius token will return the Normal token back to you to be used again in a following week (i.e. it will refresh the token). The Mercurial Genius token itself can be played any number of times during the season, unless...

...your BBQ Number blows up and exceeds the relevant yardage limit (Rushing: 100, Receiving: 100, Passing: 400). Then the Genius will get himself ejected for the rest of the season and your BBQ Number will have a record game! Specifically, their yardage total will be set to the relevant all-time single-game record below:
Rushing: 296 yards (Adrian Peterson, Vikings vs San Diego, 2007)
Receiving: 336 yards (Willie 'Flipper' Anderson, Rams vs Saints, 1989)
Passing: 554 yards (Norm van Brocklin, Rams vs NY Yanks, 1951)

If this happens and you still don't bust (what kind of strange list are you running?!?) then the Normal token will still be returned. The Mercurial Genius token is always consumed after the Genius is ejected.

SPECIAL TOKENS

THE SUBSTANTIAL MINERALS TOKEN


Ignore the fact that the receiver dropped this pass, which hit him SQUARE IN THE NUMBERS jesus christ you clowns let BRADY HAVE ANOTHER LOMBARDI
BBCode:
code:
[img]https://i.ibb.co/tx24NK1/mahomes-256.png[/img]
Sometimes you see a play that takes your breath away. It just shouldn't be possible to throw so accurately while elevated horizontally off the ground. Who would even attempt such a thing? Who would have the physical ability, opportunity, and pure ironclad confidence to pull this off? Someone with the minerals, that's who.

If you declare the Minerals token during a given week, it gets you 35 bonus points for a high score and 70 bonus points for the best score of the week, but if you finish outside the pointy end of the field you get zero, so you better choose your players wisely! In addition, you can use the Minerals token as much as you want if you keep getting the bonus, but if you use the Minerals token and fail to reach a high score, you can't use it again for the entire rest of the season unless your tokens are refreshed by scoring between 996 - 1000 in any week. Not for the faint at heart!

A 'high score' in the Minerals context means a score that is either within the top 10 if 20 or more players are active in the week, or within the top half of the field (rounded down) if less than 20 players are active. For example, if only 10 players are active then to hit on a Minerals token then you have to score in the top 5; if 7 players are active, then it must be top 3.

TOKEN CLARIFICATIONS

I'll try to collate any token clarifications I make during each thread in this area.

Clarification 1: The Genius Token

The Genius token will return the Normal token if you don't need the Normal token to avoid busting. If you do need it (or bust anyway) the Normal token is consumed and not returned. The Genius token itself is always returned unless it gets ejected ie your BBQ number exceeds the yardage limit.

For example:

Pre-Monday yardage total: 920
If Brate goes for 70: no bust, both Hayward and Genius tokens returned
If Brate goes for 100: Hayward token activated, Brate yardage becomes zero, Hayward token not returned, Genius token returned
If Brate goes for 120: Genius ejected, Brate yardage becomes 336, total yardage 1256, bust, Hayward token not returned, Genius token not returned

Pre-Monday yardage total: 600
Brate goes for 70: no bust or ejection, both tokens returned
Brate goes for 120: Genius ejected, Brate yardage becomes 336, total yardage 936, no bust, Hayward token returned, Genius token not returned

Clarification 2: Tiebreakers

Ties are broken as follows:
  • Whichever list has more players
  • If both entries have the same number of players - whichever list was entered first

Clarification 3: Using the same player more than once

You can use the same player more than once but you cannot use the same combination of player and yardage type more than once. So - to use Nick Foles as an example - you can list Nick Foles three times in one entry (for Passing, Rushing and Receiving yards) but you cannot list Nick Foles - Passing more than once. If you use a player more than once they have to be listed on separate lines for each yardage type you want to use:
pre:
PHI - Nick Foles - Passing Yards
PHI - Nick Foles - Rushing Yards
Clarification 4: The Minerals token

If you play the Minerals token but fail to place in the top half of the field that week, your base points for that week will be set to zero. These are the points that you get based on your position for the week.

For example, if there are 10 players in the week, and you finish 5th, your base points are 40 and you get 35 bonus points from the Minerals token. If you finish 6th, your base points are zero and you don't get any bonus points from the Minerals token (you also lose the ability to play the token in future weeks unless you manage to refresh your tokens, see the second post in the thread for more info).

Note that it is still possible to earn bonus points from other sources in that week however - e.g. if you play your Minerals token during the Turkeys theme week, and you finish outside the top half but hit on 4 turkeys, your score for the week is zero (base) + 40 (4 turkeys x 10pts each) = 40 points.

MNF!

Pre-MNF subtotals and remaining yards below. I would say that Okibi and Aggro are most likely to bust this week, followed by Josh Allen stans Beefed Owl and Acebuckeye13.

(Note: The below format is temporary, it will be revised in the coming weeks to be more readable/informative.)

Notes on entries

Nystral posted:

LAR - Matt Stafford - Passing Yards
CHI - Justin Fields - Passing Yards
LAC - Justin Herbert - Passing Yards

BBQ# - DAL - Tony Pollard - Rushing Yards

Tony Pollard already went for 70 yards on Sunday so he's no good to you on MNF. For this week your MNF score will be zero as I didn't post the weekly schedule to clarify which teams were playing.

Leperflesh posted:

GBP - Jordan Love passing yards
CHI - Justin Fields rushing yards
LVR - Jimmy Garoppolo handsomeness yards
LAC - Keenan Allen receiving yards
LAC - Mike Williams receiving yards
DAL - Tony Pollard rushing yards
NYG - Saquon Barkley rushing yards
NYG - Matt Breida rushing yards

BBQ: BUF - Josh Allen passing yards

While Jimmy G is indeed handsome, it is not possible to quantify exactly how handsome he is in yards, so he'll net you zero yards this week.

WEEK 2

Congratulations to Aggro for the best score of Week 1 with 978 yards, followed by Okibi in second with 935 yards and then Beefed Owl in third with 863 yards. Aaron Rodgers going out with an injury without scoring a single yard certainly scuppered Hizawk's and my entries!

Congratulations also to the entire field for not busting at all in Week 1, really sets the tone for the season.

Note that this week there are two MNF games. Your BBQ number player must come from the later of the two games, i.e. CLE @ PIT. You are free to use as many players as you like from the earlier game, i.e. NO @ CAR.

Pre-MNF update below. Note that it doesn't include players from the earlier MNF game.

Kevino07 is hoping that Chubb runs backwards all game, and Acebuckeye13 is flirting with disaster. Everyone else looks to be safe this week, but who knows what will happen!

Week 2 results have been updated. Acebuckeye13 nets both first place this week and first place overall in the standings with a great score of 988, while Kevino07 went a bit too hard and ended up with the first bust of the season with a score of 1096.

WaffleZombie posted:

365 to go with Bryce Young/Chubb is looking promising for me, just have to hope that Bryce doesn't go nuts.

Well, injuring Chubb is one way to ensure you don't bust but I think you went a little overboard

yes that's very hot and i'll deal with it in the morning


The Week 3 post has been updated with the scores for the week. As usual, let me know if you see anything out of order.

Congrats to WaffleZombie on the top score of the week, and welcome to the buster's circle Beefed Owl, Nystral, totally losing my mime and Leperflesh! In nearly any other week a score of 1655 would easily be the worst, but totally losing my mime was eclipsed by Leperflesh with what may be the largest bust we've ever seen here at 1KYOB as nearly every single rushing attack went into overdrive.

WEEK 4

After three weeks the top three - Acebuckeye13, Okibi, and WaffleZombie - are starting to separate from the pack in the standings. However, the next six spots are only separated by 14 points so there's going to be plenty of action over the next couple of weeks!

We're back to one MNF game this week so make sure you take your BBQ number from SEA @ NYG.

Week 4 scores have been updated, let me know if there's anything out of place.

Low scoring week with no busts, although scoring was very tight at the pointy end of the field! Leperflesh comes out on top with a score of 888, followed by totally losing my mime at 878 and then our current overall leader Acebuckeye13 on 869. At the bottom of the table was me because I flubbed my entry :smith: Lot of midfield movement in the overall standings as well as a result of this week.

WEEK 5

Four weeks have passed and Acebuckeye13 has firmly established themselves in the #1 overall spot, opening up an almost 30 point lead over WaffleZombie in second.

Note that JAX @ BUF is in London this week (0930 ET) so take that into account with your entries.

MNF! Kevino07 and Beefed Owl are flying close to the sun this week, while at the other end Wolfy and WaffleZombie look extremely safe. Aggro won't be needing that Professor token unless Davante breaks the single-game record tonight.

Week 5 scores and standings have been updated! Okibi ends up on top this week after Kevino07 and Beefed Owl unfortunately couldn't pull up in time and busted. seiferguy takes second place for 60 points which gave them a huge six-place boost in the overall standings.

Kevino07 posted:

Jordan Love had 2 carries averaging 18.5 yards. I was one carry away from perfection. :ferrari:

WEEK 6


Acebuckeye13 remains on top after last week but there's a lot of churn from position 2 onwards. I'm expecting the midfield action to stay high as the score distribution is still narrow. Get those entries in as a top score this week could catapult you up to the pointy end of the standings!

Note that BAL @ TEN is the early game in London this week so take that into account with your entries. Also note that GB and PIT are on bye.

MNF! I'm actually in a really good spot this week with the Donald and Genius tokens active, as well as Acebuckeye13 and Okibi. Not expecting any busts either this week.

Aggro unfortunately will have their overall score set to zero this week due to using an invalid BBQ number.

Aggro posted:

Sigh, mixed up the SNF game and the MNF game.

I’m out then — too many weeks with dumb mistakes leading to terrible scores.

To clarify, the yardage total will be set to zero but you can still earn points this week - I mixed up SNF/MNF as well back in week 4 and came in last place, which was still worth 15 pts :unsmith:

Week 6 has been updated, and this week brings us a leadership change in the overall scoring as Okibi rides CeeDee Lamb to a top score of 994! This is also the best score of the season so far. Our former frontrunner Acebuckeye13 slips ever so slightly to second place, and WaffleZombie leapfrogs seiferguy to claim the third place overall.

After seiferguy there's the now-expected turbulence in the midfield as I continue my meteoric rise out of the basement, rising a further four spots into seventh place after being in 13th two weeks ago. This has unfortunately come at the cost of bobjr and Nystral sliding five and three spots respectively. With a spread of a mere 16 points covering positions five through ten we certainly expect to see more churn in Week 7.

MNF! Kevino07, Arnold Layne and Nystral are all well-placed for a great finish this week. Acebuckeye13 has the Shadow safety blanket in the pocket, and totally losing my mime could sneak into the top three with a great game from Kirk. Meanwhile, at the other end of the scale is me holding what feels like an utterly pointless Shadow token - at least the Genius token will likely return it for later use!

I have no such token! I used it last week, and I definitely busted.

You're right, it's an artifact from last week, thanks for the pickup

Week 7 has been updated with the scores for the week and the overall standings.

After missing last week bobjr showed that they didn't get rusty as they topped the table this week with a score of 979, rising four places in the overall standings. Arnold Layne and Kevino07 round out the top three, with those hefty points helping each gain two places overall. At the other end of the scoreboard lie Acebuckeye13 and totally losing my mime, both busting by just over 70 points - totally losing my mind must have wished that Cousins didn't bounce back quite so hard from his shoddy 181-yard performance in week 6.

As we near the midpoint of the season we can see the overall standings starting to stratify. Okibi, Acebuckeye13, and WaffleZombie keep their hold on the top three positions for now but bobjr is rapidly closing the gap. Positions 7 through 14 are still frothing, with all players there able to leap up the standings with a great week.

MONSTERS Theme week rules

The basics are:

  • If you are putting in a theme entry, mark it with MONSTERS OF THE GRIDIRON
  • Your entry list can include up to 15 Monsters in addition to your BBQ#. No other players can be used.
  • A Monster is entered in one of two ways (please use either type 1 OR type 2 entries, don't mix them!):
    • Any horror movie/show/book monster with the name entered directly (this is a type 1 entry):
      pre:
      <team> - <Monster> - Rushing Yards
      
      e.g.
      pre:
      DAL - Jason Voorhees - Rushing Yards
      
    • OR, the monster name followed by the player that you want to use in brackets (this is a type 2 entry):
      pre:
      <team> - <Monster> (<Player_Name>) - Rushing Yards
      
      e.g.
      pre:
      DAL - Jason Voorhees (Jason Witten) - Rushing Yards
      
  • The yardage type will always be Rushing for a Monster
  • Your Monster cannot be on a team that is playing on Monday, but otherwise you can use whatever team you like
  • Monsters will be processed in the following way:
    • For type 1 entries, the Monsters will be run through the fuzzy name matcher to resolve them into a QB/RB on the team you specify - the QB/RB with the lowest Levenshtein distance to your Monster will be used (here's a handy calculator that should approximate how the DB does player matching, but I won't guarantee that it will behave exactly the same). You have some freedom with the capitalization of the monster name, if you want to adjust for a specific match
    • For type 2 entries, the player you specify will be used directly
  • Your BBQ# number should be entered as follows (no yardage type is required):
    pre:
    BBQ#: MNF - The Victims
    
  • You cannot use any tokens with a MONSTERS entry

When you enter a MONSTERS entry for the week, the two MNF QBs (the Victims) try to evade your Monsters as they skitter, skulk, scramble, slink and slither after them! If your total Monster yardage is greater than the lower-scoring MNF QB (wrt passing yards), he is eaten and you will get 20 bonus points if you use type 2 entries (40 points for type 1)! If your total Monster yardage is higher than both QBs combined, then they are both eaten and you get 40 bonus points if you use type 2 entries (80 points for type 1 - note it does not stack with the first bonus). If either QB escapes, their passing yardage is added to your Monster yardage. Regardless of how many QBs get eaten by your Monsters, if you bust for the week you get zero bonus points!

Some great MONSTERS entries here, nice work all! I ran out of time for a proper entry so just winging in a regular version to get on the scoresheet this week:

LAC - Justin Herbert - Passing yards
CHI - Tyson Bagent - Passing yards
LAC - Keenan Allen - Receiving yards

BBQ#: DET - Jared Goff - Passing yards

Scoring will take a bit longer this week due to the theme - they should be up by Wednesday.

Quick reminder for anyone who hasn't put in an entry this week - if you get something in before MNF kicks off you'll get on the scoreboard and earn some points!
