This tool is really useful. I’m not sure the data is correct.

I play Big 3 scoring and Myles Garrett has 391 points in week 1-18 last year and 377.25 points in week 1-17 last year.

I’ve seen another source share the same stats with what I shared above.

Additionally, the Big 3 IDP scoring graphic at the top says Forced Fumbles are worth 3 but in your write-up it says they’re worth 4. That discrepancy alone doesn’t account for Garrett’s difference point totals though.

That’s super helpful, thank you!

It’s almost certainly that tackles don’t stack.

I was under the impression that everything stacks or nothing stacks (e.g., sack, QB hit, TFL, tackle, and sack yardage). But I realize the discrepancy now.

Thank you again!

Thanks Alex, and yeah, the graphic needs to be fixed. That scoring is correct in the sheet, fwiw.

The difference in scoring likely comes from different stat collectors for fantasy platforms and what we’re using. The big difference here is that fantasy stat collectors are likely double-counting tackles with sacks, where we’re separating the two to keep the data cleaner. That way it’s more reliable to use when using for projections or research. Basically, raw stats vs fantasy points, I’ll use the raw stats when making this a true tool. Can still use your fantasy provider for the fantasy points you’re seeing.

Sorry for the confusion! Hope that makes sense.
