Week 6 -7 Recap
Standings
Don’t let those rankings fool you - everyone still has at least a 1% chance of making the playoffs (I’m looking at you Tuesday!!). Also, while Ryan is technically in 2nd, he only has a 78% chance of making the playoffs, while Erik (currently 7th) has an 85% shot. Yay for strength of schedule.
Team of the Week
Toomey Smalls. The reigning champ has notched W’s over Uncle Crab Crab and Team Ship Show. She has the absolutely lethal combination of the Bucs Defense, Josh Allen, Mike Williams, and this guy.
Ryan felt that stiff arm so much that he wanted to dig into the data on how Shannon got both King Henry and Josh Allen.
| Round | Shannon | Ryan | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Derrick Henry | Davante Adams | ||
| 2 | Mike Evans | Joe Mixon | ||
| 3 | Josh Allen | Darren Waller |
It was right there for you Ryan. Looks like the 👑 will just keep stealing victories away from you and the Ravens for now.
Player of the Week
Ja’Marr Chase, owned by Grow a Pair and Go For 2. There’s only one player ever whose rookie year has been better than Ja’Marr. That player was Randy Moss. He put up 26.2 points in Week 7 and is averaging 16 points per game. When Megan needed a W against Ju, Ja’Marr delivered - actual footage of Megan’s victory dance above.
He is the number two WR this season behind Cooper Kupp (who is also tracking ahead of Randy Moss for the best fantasy performance by a WR ever).
Matchup of the Week
This one was Julian vs Megan. It was an epic battle of Ja’Marr Chase and some stuff vs Kyler Murray and some stuff. Unfortunately for Julian, Megan’s team had the stuff. Not much, but 66 points is enough when your opponent only scores 53.
Bench En Fuego
This week, I’m giving the league a break, in favor of the first true Dumpster Fire of the year. That honor goes to the Seattle Seahawks, who are so bad that you can buy tickets to their game, at home, against Jacksonville for $19. Trevor Lawrence can’t even get a buzz cut at Rudy’s for that price. It’s not the lowest of the week, but still - you can buy a Seahawks ticket for the same price as 2 Quarter Pounders or 1 Pumpkin Spice Latte.
I gave Megan a preview of this fun fact and her response was “Gross, that’s not even worth getting a babysitter”.
