11/09/12: Updated with Week Seven rankings and season-to-date leaderboard.

Okay, it's like this: I cheated. I cheated on football with baseball last week into this weekend, so this is a bare-bones post with no results until I can use to bye to catch up on everything. For the record, I regret nothing. There's no fun like second-hand excitement watching another SF team bulldoze its way to ultimate glory. Plus, I learned that baseball isn't as boring as I once foolishly assumed. Congrats to all the Giants fans on NN!

I plan on using the upcoming bye week to throw together a bigger results post with some mid-season stats and thoughts, but the juicy number crunching will have to wait until then.

To those who could (or couldn't) care less about baseball, I'll get right to it: the rules are simple. Guess Alex Smith's passing stat line for the upcoming game (49ers at Cardinals) using the following format in the comments below.

Attempts:
Completions:
Yards:
TDs:
INTs:
Sacks:
Rushing Yards (Optional):
Rushing TDs (Optional):

Feel free to revise your numbers all the way up to game time. I'll use only the most recent guess. If you want to update your numbers, please reply to your original comment with the revised guess.

NOTE: Although I'm not currently scoring rushing stats (yards and TDs), I'm considering doing something with them at some point. For now, if you'd like to add rushing stats to your guess, please do. I'll highlight the person with the closest rushing predictions in the results column.

Scoring:

The scoring is based on a 6-point system, with each of the following metrics accounting for a point: Attempts, Completion % (calculated from Cmp/Att numbers), Yards, TDs, INTs, and Sacks. It's a bit dry, but for the curious, here is how each of the metrics are scored:

Attempts: 1 - Min(1, Abs(ActualAtt - AttGuessed) / 12)

Completion %: 1 - Min(1, Abs(ActualComp% - (CompGuessed/AttGuessed * 100)) / 15)

Yards: 1 - Min(1, Abs(ActualYards - YardsGuessed) / 100)

TDs: 1 - Min(1, Abs(ActualTDs - TDsGuessed) / 3)

INTs: 1 - Min(1, Abs(ActualINTs - INTsGuessed) / 3)

Sacks: 1 - Min(1, Abs(ActualSacks - SacksGuessed) / 5)

The six scoring categories are added up to produce a composite score. The maximum that can be scored is 6 points; the minimum is 0. I'll keep a running leaderboard throughout the season, along with posting the weekly results.
