Coach Terry Muth cost their team dearly with a key coaching mistake. Meanwhile, Coach Pat landy crushed it when filing out the lineup card. Other interesting news such as Philadelphia Griffins’ first loss of the season, in this week’s recap.
Zack Moss and Miami Muffdivers put an end to Orange Co. Beach Dudes’ three game streak
Orange Co. Beach Dudes came into this week’s match-up on a three-game win streak, but Miami Muffdivers put an end to that. Miami Muffdivers destroyed Orange Co. Beach Dudes, winning 91.5 to 50.5. With the win and those 91.5 points, Miami Muffdivers now sits at the top of every component in the CBS power rankings.
Miami Muffdivers have now finished off four straight opponents after this win, which gives them a 4 – 0 record. The loss drops Orange Co. Beach Dudes’ record to 3 – 2.
Coach Pat landy didn’t rely on his All-Stars to pull this one out, instead getting contributions from unexpected quarters. Zack Moss scored 28 points, Joe Burrow got 18, and Chris Boswell dropped 9. Moss’ 28 points topped all but three players this week. He racked up an incredible 195 total yards on Sunday, 56 of which came from this huge TD run.
Meanwhile, there were plenty of chefs cooking up this week’s loss for Orange Co. Beach Dudes. They had seven underperformers, with Nico Collins (1.5 points) being the worst. Collins’ 1.5 points made him the worst starter on his team for the 1st time this season.
Coach Landy certainly deserved the win, given his lineup decisions. He went with Zack Moss over the higher ranked Jaylen Warren.
This great decision gave Miami Muffdivers a nice 24.5 point bonus, which just made the final result that much more embarrassing. It also earned Coach Landy ‘Coach of the Week’ honors, as he gave his squad more extra points than anyone else in the league.
Dallas Armadillos and Puka Nacua somehow, someway walked away with a win this week
This was expected to be a close game, and the predictions ended up being right. In the only close game this week, Dallas Armadillos just barely got past Happy Valley Violence, winning 57.5 to 55.5. Big time luck for Dallas Armadillos in this contest, as they would have lost against all but one other team.
The loss drops Happy Valley Violence to 0 – 5, and sinks them to the bottom of our internal power rankings. The win brings Dallas Armadillos to 3 – 1.
They were led by the trio of Puka Nacua, A.J. Brown, and Patrick Mahomes, who combined for 69% of their team’s points. That makes it three straight games of overperforming expectations for Brown.
Meanwhile, Tony Pollard and Brian Robinson Jr. were both working off the same playbook this week, dropping only 2 points for Happy Valley Violence. Underperforming is the new normal for Pollard, who has gone four straight games without hitting his projected point total.
Although Happy Valley Violence lost this game, on the bright side, Dallas Armadillos were the hardest test they will face for a while. Their next two games are against sub .500 teams, starting with Big Oregon Bang next week. Happy Valley Violence will get to face Big Oregon Bang while that squad is in the middle of a four game losing streak.
Meanwhile, Dallas Armadillos will collide with Orange Co. Beach Dudes.
Josh Allen produces 24 points to lead New Chester Thorobreds in victory
After losing three straight games, Coach Terry Muth’s squad figured: ‘Why not another?’ Keystone Longfellows got beat by New Chester Thorobreds, 82.5 to 71. The 71 points that Keystone Longfellows scored were the most they scored this year, just one week after setting their season low.
The loss drops Keystone Longfellows to the last spot in the Paterno division at 1 – 4. The win brings New Chester Thorobreds to 2 – 3.
New Chester Thorobreds didn’t have any huge performances this week, but also didn’t have anybody who really dropped the ball. Josh Allen paced the team by beating the average quarterback by 10.3 points, while Tyler Allgeier (4.3 points worse than the average running back) was the worst on the team. Allen’s 24 point performance this week moves him up to being the best quarterback in the league this season. The Bills’ loss in London sure can’t be blamed on him, who had no problem taking and completing deep shots.
Coach Muth saw some familiar names among their bad players this week. DeVonta Smith, Latavius Murray, and Cordarrelle Patterson continued to disappoint, combining for 1.5 points. It’s yet another disappointing day for Smith, who has now underperformed the experts’ predictions in three straight games. Despite two teammates with 100-yard games, he didn’t get much attention: he finished with one reception on five targets for five yards.
The outcome of this one would have been different if Coach Muth had gotten all of their lineup picks right. They started Jameson Williams instead of Jordan Addison, despite the experts’ prediction that Addison should have played.
This terrible decision took a 11 point chunk out of Keystone Longfellows’ final score. If Coach Muth had left Williams on the bench and also started Kyle Pitts, Keystone Longfellows would have won the game.
Ja’Marr Chase says, “YES!”
Frelinghuysen Froglickers made sure that they didn’t become the 5th straight team to lose to Philadelphia Griffins, winning 79.5 to 66.
The win brings Frelinghuysen Froglickers’ winning streak to four games, and gives them a record of 4 – 1. The loss is the first of the season for Philadelphia Griffins, dropping their record to 4 – 1.
Frelinghuysen Froglickers stumbled big time right from the get-go. Lamar Jackson and Jahan Dotson both did poorly, together coming up with only 6.5 points. Jackson’s performance this week ended a three game streak of beating the experts’ projections.
Frelinghuysen Froglickers also had to deal with a poor effort from Derrick Henry (7.7 points below expected). Meanwhile, Philadelphia Griffins were at least doing decent. De’Von Achane took the lead, scoring 18.5 points. New York had no answer to Achane as he was almost untouched on this massive 76-yard score.
Going into late Sunday, our projections gave Frelinghuysen Froglickers only a 18.2% chance of winning. Coach David Zilberfarb’s squad blew those projections out of the water. Ja’Marr Chase did 30.2 points better than he was expected to, which was enough to give Frelinghuysen Froglickers an unlikely victory.
Tyreek Hill helps give Chicago Mud an easy win this week
Chicago Mud (4 – 1) sent Big Oregon Bang (1 – 4) crying home to mommy after a thorough 88 to 64.5 spanking. Both squads keep their momentum (or in the case of Big Oregon Bang, “momentum”) going as a result of this match. Chicago Mud have now won three games in a row. This loss brings Big Oregon Bang’s losing streak to four in a row.
Tyreek Hill has been the key player throughout Chicago Mud’s winning streak, and came through again this week. The Cheetah joined up with George Kittle to score 54% of Chicago Mud’s points. Hill’s performance early on Sunday took him from the 4th best player to the 2nd best player in the league. He was nothing more than a blur once he got some room to run.
Coach Wayne rupert put Isaiah Hodgins into the Big Oregon Bang lineup for the first time this week, but Hodgins might want to keep his bench warming pants clean. Hodgins and Romeo Doubs combined to notch 1.5 points for Big Oregon Bang. That continues a theme for Hodgins, who is yet to top the average wide receiver’s point total in any week so far.
Although only one wound up with a victory, both coaches made good decisions this week. . Coach Feldman went with George Kittle over the higher ranked Courtland Sutton.
This decision netted Coach Feldman an extra 22 points, which only added to Chicago Mud’s domination. After his decisions this week, Coach Feldman’s lineup moves are now a net-plus for the year.
As for Coach Rupert, he followed the experts’ advice for each position and ended up with a perfect lineup. This is the first time all season that Coach Rupert has pulled that off.
Connecticut Wildcats gets a one week break from a bleak season
Connecticut Wildcats failed to show up for last week’s contest, but turned things way around this week. They got past Boxboro Blowfish without much trouble, winning 92 to 75.5. The 92 points Connecticut Wildcats scored set the high mark for the league this week.
The win is the first of the season for Connecticut Wildcats, making their record 1 – 4. The loss drops Boxboro Blowfish’s record to 1 – 2 -1.
Connecticut Wildcats relied heavily on Breece Hall, who dropped 23.5 points. Hall’s performance this week ended a three game streak of failing to hit his projections. He turned on the jets (pun intended) for this incredible 72-yard touchdown.
Meanwhile, Boxboro Blowfish had plenty of duds in the loss. Nick Westbrook-Ikhine was the worst of a four man group of underperformers, notching only 0.5 points. Coach Doug Weaver found out why he was available on the waiver wire this week.
Next week will see Connecticut Wildcats taking on the 2 – 3 New Chester Thorobreds. The contest will see some top shelf QB play, as Justin Herbert meets up with Josh Allen.
As for Boxboro Blowfish, they will match up with Mercer Mustangs next week. Coach Weaver are getting Mercer Mustangs at the right time, as they will limp into next week’s game having posted less than 60 points each of the last one weeks.
