Don't know if this is correct place for this, but Landry was counted a -2 on a lost fumble on a kickoff return...it was not a scrimmage play and the deducted points should be returned to Landry.
We count fumbles (lost) the same way whether it's an offensive scrimmage play or on ST. It's something we hope to have a separate category in the future to decipher between, but we don't now and have always scored it this way.
Here's a thread from earlier in the season that explains it in detail and hope it helps:
They do count there as the player did fumble on the play, even though it was a ST play. It's a limitation on how we calculate fumbles -- you're correct and have a valid argument that it shouldn't, and in the future we should specialize special teams fumbles and fumbles and it's something we'll continue to work on.
Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do there on our end right now, but in the future hope to have a separate fumble category.
Your league can rule individually if they see fit to not charge the player with the fumble, but we do.
Thanks...it hasn't come up (or been noticed in our league until now). Not getting the position player's ST points if he scores but getting the deduction for the turnover definately needs to be fixed...
