Fantasy on NFL.com features head-to-head scoring, where each team is matched up against another team within a league each week.
Scoring Corrections
Occasionally, the official statistics from a given game are reviewed by the NFL and changed to more accurately reflect what happened on the field of play. Under these circumstances, the scoring changes to those plays affects the point totals of fantasy players involved. For example, if your team Defense is initially listed as having recorded a sack in a game, but, after further review, it is determined that the play was actually just a tackle behind the line of scrimmage, then your team would no longer get the fantasy points initially awarded for that sack. Those points would be removed from your point total for the week when the scoring correction is processed. You can see the latest scoring corrections by clicking on the Players tab at the top of the page and clicking "Stat Corrections."
In the event of a scoring change, the results of a fantasy matchup, and, thus, standings and seeding, may change. We will not then change the outcome manually to reflect a previous, inaccurate result.

How Bonuses Work
For bonuses involving TD yardage, points are cumulative. For example, if bonuses for a 40+ yard touchdown and a 50+ yard touchdown are both turned on and a player scores a 55+ yard touchdown, the player will receive both bonuses. Please edit your settings accordingly.
In contrast, bonuses for total yardage are not cumulative. For example, if your league has a bonus for 100-199 yards receiving and a bonus for 200+ yards receiving and a player finishes a game with 250 yards receiving, they will only receive the bonus for 200+ yards as their total does not fall between 100-199.
Ties
NFL-Managed leagues and leagues with default settings allow ties to be counted in team records should two opponents end a matchup with the same score.
If you do not want matchup ties to be possible, go to "Edit League Settings" in the MANAGE tab and select "No." You can then select one of the one following single game tie-breaker options:
- Bench Points
- QB Points
- RB Points
- WR Points
- TE Points
- Defense Points
- K Points
Note: You may also select one of these options and use the "Edit Team Week Points" feature in the game to customize further.
