If an offensive player from the same team as my starting Team Defense fumbles or throws an interception that leads to a touchdown, does that count against my Team Defense points allowed?
No, points that a defense scores against the offensive turnovers of your Team Defense team do NOT count against your Team Defense points allowed. For example, for the situation when you are starting the Bengals Team Defense against the Ravens, let’s say Carson Palmer throws an interception to Ed Reed who returns it for a touchdown. Although the Ravens scored 6 points on the play, the Bengals Team Defense did not surrender the touchdown and thus they are not penalized for giving up points. However, any points given up while the special teams for the Bengals are on the field (including a field goal or extra point) do count in this total.
