Week 10: Wash-up

Week 10 is in the books and I think we all know how Zim did from her previous post. 40 points to Lynch will give you the World Conquering feeling I suppose. I highly recommend watching Lynch's highlights package, he is just amazing to watch, the way he bulldozes over defences, like a bulldozer bulldozering over defensive rubble. Check it.

Endless (125) def The General (59)

Huge win to Endless this week, with Dez Bryant leading the way (27). Four other players over 15 and no one under 10, except for the TE who was on a bye. Solid performances all round, not relying on any one player to stand up; copying Zim's recent teams and the way Breesus has played 'em all year. It makes The General's loss look worse than it otherwise might: no players over 13 and the QB was woeful. In his game Cutler was even worse than 7, he threw a couple of late TDs when the game was well and truly over to boost his stats, and those of a few other players. The Bears were down 42-0 at half time and lost 55-14. They have now lost two-games in a row by over 50 points. The first time that has happened to any NFL since 1923. I sense a coaching change on the near horizon.

Marcy (101) def Farnsworth's (40)

Mammoth win for Marcy that snaps her losing streak and more importantly moves her off the bottom of the standings. The Vampire Queen gave Newton another shot which I suspect will be his last. Another awful performance from him, salvaged, like Cutler, with some TDs in garbage time. Not that Tannehill or Eli did any better, so maybe Newton gets another run? Jimmy Graham and Eddie Lacy were both good performers, but look at that defence, Eagles 31 points. Remember, that was against Newton. Like the General, nothing went right for the Farnsworth who sink to last place. Flacco was miserable in a good win, rookie WR sensation Watkins failed, two players didn't score because of injury.

Breesus (112) def Agent P (70)

The King of the Drews is back in the winners circle and totally ensconced on the top of the standing with a good performance from his starters. No real stand-out players, just good scores from enough to get the job done. Brees (18), Murray (13), Cobb (11), baby-Benjamin (19)... etc. Crazy scores on the other side, with Agent P dropping her second in a row. Kaepernick won the game for the 49ers, against Drew Brees, but his stats are horrible, 12 points. Blergh! We need Rivers back... oh wait, that -2. Ugh! Agent P must be ruing the 60 points left on the bench, 25 to Matthews who had a great receiving day from Sanchez (loved seeing Sanch play well), and a whopping 25 points from the Cardinals defence. By my calculation replacing the three benchers with the three worst replacement starters and Agent P wins by a point.

Zim (136) def Bradylessbrothers (81)

How fickle is this game? The last two games Big Ben Roethlisberger throws 12 TDs and posts a crapload of fantasy points against good teams. Week 10 he plays the awful Jets and puts up a miserly 13 points in an awful loss. WTF? Meanwhile the injured Romo goes to London and racks up 21 points. Two injured players for BB did not help his chances, but it would have taken a minor miracle to beat out Zim this week. Six players over 10, including a 40, 27 and only 13 from the QB. And next week she gets the Gronk and Gostkowski back from their bye. Love the team. Zim moves into outright second place with the Lighties and Agent P both losing.

Doof (125) def Illuminators (87)

In three years the Mighty Doof's Playinators have an 8-2 records against the Lighties. Thought that was worth mentioning now, rather than in the Preview. Five players over 10 points, including 36 thanks to Aaron Rodgers having another day out against the Bears (6TDs to half time and then benched not long into the 3rd quarter). Great to see my man Megatron back from injury and putting up a few points. For the Lighties, Peyton again performed, 29 points and then benched for the 4th quarter with the game in the bag. Robinson ran well for the Jags, and the Lighties, but again not good production from the rest of the starters. With a better loss than Agent P, the Illuminators move into 3rd place and the Road to the Championship (tm) continues for Doof, clawing into 7th place.
