Week 4 Wrap-Up – 2018

Another wild week in the books. This week had less close match-ups than the previous weeks, and featured the biggest blowout of the season (100 points!). It also had our two highest scores of the season (184.5 and 181.6 points), and our two lowest of the season (84.3 and 94.3 points). A lot of teams ended up in the middle and the average score for the season continues to hover around 141 points. The average winning score this season? 154.5. The average losing scoring? 126.9.

There were a lot of bounce back teams this week. Surfers, Pumaskulls, and Nibblonians all took a big step from their average week 3 performances. Others teams like TGIF and Smoke came crashing back to earth. Shenanihads would have beat four teams this week, bringing their wins agains the field for the season up to 5-39. Giant Octopus on the other hand has recorded back to back high scores and has a 40-4 against the field. The system is now calling The Northern Pikes the power division, with 3 teams breaking the 600 point total. They also have the only teams who haven’t broke the 500 point total so the division seems a little polar. The Mayo boys however, have a pretty decent average amongst all the teams, although Mega Shark took a commanding lead this week with their 181.6 point performance.

This week we saw a huge gap in QB power, the Shenanihads scoring ZERO and the Nibblonians scoring 39 points. Defensive ends scored big this week with an average of 17.6 points, while cornerbacks in the league only scored 4.5. Five cornerbacks have been started this season with an average of 5.18 points, so beware when chasing CB points. Some teams are killing it with their drafted players – Shittysauruses have scored 573 out of their 614 total points from players out of the draft – while injury struck teams like the Boomers have barely scored 50% of their points out of drafted players. The Boomers have more than made up for this in free agency, where they’ve scored 200 points out of players from the waiver wire.
