Week of the upsets and the lowest scoring week of the season. We had three of the ten worst scores of the season this week, and the worst scoring win with TGIFs 99.9. Nibblonians picked up the win and are setup pretty nicely for a playoff spot if they can keep it up. Unfortunately they’ll need to go up against Octo (#1) and Shitty (#3) the next few weeks, but after that get to face Shenanihads (#12) and Atoms (#11). Wholelottasmoke has dropped in points for four straight weeks and have to be pretty stoked that Pumaskulls also took the L, otherwise they would have dropped to third in the division. Mega Shark continues to dominate, averaging 167 points over the last four weeks and facing an extremely soft schedule.

Mega Shark joins the Giant Octopus tier while Surfers join Shitty in the unlucky tier. The green group is all +75% to make the playoffs while Shitty and Surfers are the next teams mostly likely to sneak in. Boomers, TGIF, and Atoms all remain in the mix, while Shenanihads can look to spoil Shitty, Atoms, or Fluffy’s chances of making playoffs – all teams that pretty much have to win every game from here out.

Another week, another set of records being broken.

• Worst season of all time? Shenanihads lose again and are now 0-8
• Worst performance of all time? In a year where teams are averaging 140 points, Atoms posted a score of 52 – a score that hasn’t been seen since 2010-2012 era Bo Knows, where averages were around 90 points.
• Most unlucky team of all time? Third in points and a 60-28 record against the field, Shittysauruses took another loss and are now 2-6. Go check out GarbageTime and see all the ways Shittysauruses could be at 7-1 if she were in other teams shoes.

After averaging 130 points from weeks 2-6, Surfers have now posted back to back weeks of 168+ points, without their star player. Pumaskulls bounced back huge this week posting their second highest score of the season and 63 points more than the previous week. They’ve now won their last five games and are only one game out of first place. Wholelottasmoke posted their worst score of the season, but still have a favorable schedule and are tied for division lead.

The trip to the opposing division went well for the Mayo Boys who went 11-7. On the receiving end were the Northern Pikes, where Shenanihads and Nibblonians both went winless.

Every week is wild and this week was no exception. We saw the top score of all time (193.9) as well as the worst score of the season (77.7). Mega Shark put up back to back 179 point weeks and has taken the number two position in overall points. Boomers made a late week trade to bolster their starting line-up and ended up posting their highest score of the season. Hopefully they can capitalize on their soft schedule over the next few weeks as they face Nibblonians and Pumaskulls.

Shenanihads lost their top RB this week and posted their lowest score of the season. Atoms decided to one-up the Shenanihads this week by forgoing a tight-end and scoring nearly half the points of the league’s average. The highest over-performing team faced the worst-under performing team this week and the results were predictable. Wholelottasmoke pulled off a win with only 127.3 and hold a 6-1 record despite their 56% win percentage against the field. Pumaskulls must have been hanging out with smoke recently, as they pulled off the lowest scoring win of the season with only 108 points.

A big bounce back week for Mega Shark, who posted their highest score of the season and the second highest score of all season. Nibblonians posted their lowest score of the season and have dropped in points for three straight weeks. Pumaskulls are picking up the pace with three straight wins, and now have the fourth highest total points for the season. They should make it four straight wins with their next matchup against the hapless Shenanihads, but face a underrated Shittysaurus team in week 8. The Shittysauruses lost a heartbreaker last week, but easily got the win this week. They’re due for some positive win regression, with 74% wins against the field, but a 2-4 record. Wholelottasmoke is the highest over-performing team, and pulled out another win this week to become one of two 5-1 teams. They’ll be tested over the next two weeks as they face the Shittysuaurus and Bunnies. There have been nine scores under 110 points this season, and Shenanihads own four of them. Things aren’t looking up as they have to take on the Pumaskulls and Giant Octopus over the next three weeks.

Linebackers continue to be the main source of points for most in the league, averaging 12 points a game. Safeties took over as the top producer this week averaging 12.4 points, while corner backs continue to be the worst: 7.6 points. Overall the point discrepancy between teams is the smallest for IDP of any position. The top IDP team is the Atoms (strategy working? lol) with an average of 14 points, while the worst IDP team (Shenanihads) are still scoring 7.1. Compare that to running backs: the top running back team is Giant Octopus with an average of 21 points, while the Shenanihads (lol) are barely mustering 8.9 points a week from the position.

The tiers look mostly the same from last week. Two tiers with just one team, Octo with the highest Wins/Points, and Shenanhiads on the opposite. In the middle there are three tiers, the good points/wins, the bad points/wins, and Pumaskulls and Shittysauruses who are the underperformers right now.

Another maybe-not-as-exciting week with a lot of blowouts. Some teams really got it going like the Atoms, some team took it to the next level like the Pumaskulls, and some teams completely fell off like Mega Shark and Surfers. The MotW started exciting but died down as the afternoon games played out. Nibblonians pulled off the win as the Bunnies fell flat, five of their starters scoring less than ten points. A lot of eyes were on Shellbyville and Atoms Monday night, and although Atoms put up his highest score of the season, the Shittysauruses were finally able to eek out a win (for now). Shittysauruses have been on fire since pretty much the second week and are now second in points and hold an impressive 41-14 against the field. They’ve still got some ground to cover in the division but their luck may have finally turned around. The Pumaskulls finally lived up to their billing as a top wide receiver team, averaging 25 points from their starters and putting up the 5th highest point total for the season.
