What are PF and PA in fantasy football?
PF (Points For) is the total points your team has scored, and PA (Points Against) is the total your opponents have scored against you.
PF measures how strong your lineup has been, while PA measures how tough your opponents' weekly scores have been — together they reveal how much of your record is skill versus luck.
A team that's 5-5 but leads the league in PF has been unlucky, often losing close, high-scoring weeks; a team that's 7-3 with low PF has likely faced weak opponents (low PA). Many leagues use PF as the tiebreaker for playoff seeding precisely because it reflects roster strength better than record alone.
Comparing PF and PA to your win-loss record is the quickest way to gauge whether you're genuinely good, genuinely unlucky, or just riding a soft schedule — useful context before making panic trades.
