We use the cookies to extract (read-only) data about your fantasy league.

We only offer recap videos right now as per the next FAQ.

Glad that you asked. Recap videos attribute why you won or lost your matchup, what your opponent and you could've vs should've done differently, and what the impact is on the rest of the league. Similarly, there is some summary of the most relevant matchups to you as per the standings. An attribution report from equity fund portfolio management attributes whether sector/ country allocation effect or selection effect is why a fund out-/underperformed an index. These recaps are like that -- they don't just tell you what you know from checking in on your phone many times throughout Sunday's games as if it's a horse race getting summarized by an announcer. They should inform you what you would know if you checked many pages of your fantasy football platform's site on Tuesday morning. There's also some juvenile humor mixed in to try to keep it lighter. Among the things we are very curious about is getting the ratio of serious statements and silly comments about right because we don't want it to be distracting. If you are reading FAQs this far down, you are the ideal person to keep this in mind and relay your feedback. Thank you in advance!

It’s not actually about environmental consciousness. It refers to future matchups of individual players, which will make more sense when our offering includes previews that advise you to add specific players for specific reasons multiple weeks out (e.g., a D/ST has the best matchup in two+ weeks when your opponent that week and you will each need to stream a defense). If you are like us, you spend a lot of the regular season eyeballing your players' and free agents' matchups for W16-17 looking for that green indication of favorability, and the best you can have on the eve of a matchup is having all green matchups in the column to the right of the players in your starting lineup when you’re viewing your roster. Hopefully, that makes more sense than environmental consciousness, which also is great.

This question clearly isn’t for a potential user about to sign up and add a league; it’s buried as the last FAQ for someone interested in what Green Fantasy Football does. But, here we go.

At a high level, fantasy football is a social game that uses real-life data. A fantasy league typically includes a 14-week regular season for 10-16 fantasy teams (run by real people – friends, family members, colleagues) followed by a single elimination playoff (most commonly three weeks for six teams with two first round byes as an example). In any given regular season week in a fantasy league, each team has an opponent (e.g., 5-7 matchups with two of the 10-16 teams). In any of these weeks, a team’s objective is to outscore (more on this later) its opponent in order to win its matchup. There are standings in the regular season tracking seeding, and playoffs are single elimination where the league’s champion that season survives its single elimination postseason matchups.

A single matchup’s scoring is determined by fantasy points accrued by designated NFL players on each team’s roster. (These are real-life NFL players, but they do not know or care about this specific fantasy team.) A fantasy team starts certain NFL players based on restrictions on the players’ position in real football. In a given week, these real-life NFL players accrue real-life statistics (e.g., a wide receiver in a specific week might have 5 receptions for 50 yards and 1 touchdown, no passing/ rushing yards/ touchdowns, no two-point conversions) in their actual NFL games. Each league has a scoring system for how these real-life stats translate into fantasy points (e.g., it could include .5 fantasy points per reception, .1 fantasy points per receiving or rushing yard, 6 fantasy points per receiving or rushing touchdown = 13.5 fantasy points in that “5-50-1” example from before).

There are also roster restrictions based on league rules. The fantasy season kicks off with a draft – typically the most fun part of the football season – because there is only one instance of an NFL player in a fantasy league's universe. Drafts are the initial way in which fantasy teams in a fantasy league compete for filling out their rosters with NFL players (e.g., a turn-based or bidding system for selecting the NFL players). Undrafted NFL players who were eligible to be drafted go into a large free agency pool after drafts. Teams then can trade players amongst themselves, but they mostly will add NFL players from the free agency pool (and drop players from their existing roster). The portion of players drafted and even rostered mid-season tends to be a small portion of the NFL players with potential for fantasy impact, and real-life football is volatile over the course of an NFL season with a lot of unforeseen development. The bulk of post draft fantasy football action is about these additions of players from the free agency pool at the cost of dropping players from the existing roster into the free agency pool in order to make the required room for the incoming player. It is a bizarrely emotional process to fake drop a real-life player who doesn’t know or care about your fantasy team. However, in any active league (one worth playing in), the eventual champion will have done a pretty good job with active management of their roster over the course of what feels like a very long season with the addition of helpful free agents before competitors could add those same real-life players to their fake football team’s roster instead.

That’s pretty much it. There’re some more details, but you have the gist.
