This is a weird fantasy season. We have FIVE teams that are 5-3, which means one of those teams (currently Hamilton Rod and Gun) would be out of the playoff picture. You could argue that despite 4-4 and 3-5 teams being as close as they are, they are nowhere near as talented, and our playoff field will consist of 4 of that current Top 5. And now....
REKAPITULIEREN!
Hardcore Sacks rides Jones, Kupp to 161-111.5 victory over Utah Falco
So, London was good to the Rams offense, or at least to Jared Goff and Cooper Kupp. (Also could have been a bad Bengals defense.) Honestly, when a team has two players over 30 points, it's tough to beat him, as long as the rest of his roster doesn't just completely lay down. Falco had Christian McCaffrey do his usual thing, but didn't enough from anyone else.
Released Dix On Boobies gets 20+ from his skill spots, topples Death Valley Driver 144.5-123
Matthew Stafford, Dalvin Cook, James Connor, Julio Jones and Kenny Golladay basically carried the day for Boobies (heh). It didn't even matter that Gerald Everett did nothing (in case you were wondering, I didn't count the TE as a "skill" spot). DVD posted a great score that would have beaten anyone else (other than Hardcore) but sometimes, that's how the cookie crumbles.
Hamilton Rod and Gun finally starts scoring points again, tops Iron Ryan 117.5-91.5
Tevin Coleman. Oh man. I thought Carolina's run D was supposed to be decent. They were not. Over 100 yards and FOUR touchdowns for Coleman. My goodness. Also, JuJu made a few plays, which he hasn't really done much this year (thank you, Dolphins D). I-Ry had just a single player break 20 points (Julian Edelman), and wasn't able to keep up.
Pedro Pickles pops Team Provost, 113.5-94.5
Oh, Provost. Mike Evans is a stud. Marvin Jones got lucky last week. And Provost attempted to ride the luck train, instead of sticking with the stud. Which resulted in a point differential of 33.5 points. Ouch. Pickles meanwhile got 32.5 from Latavius Murray (thanks to Alvin Kamara being out again) which would up being most of the difference in this one.
Hooked On A Thielen rides A-Rod to victory of The Jeff Fisher Effect, 96-87
Into Sunday Night Football, this game was wide open. Then Travis Kelce and Aaron Rodgers slammed that door shut. JFE's run of facing underperforming teams continued, but yet again his mediocre roster couldn't capitalize. Aaron Rodgers is the only one who broke the 20-point barrier in this one. HOTA might feel a little lucky to escape with a victory with such a low point total.
Good To The Last Money
Hardcore Sacks is this week's Tidwell winner, his second of the season, tying him with HRG and HOTA for the most. Who ends up with the most? We'll find out...
But we still have six more weeks to find out!
On to Week 9!

Week 7, or The Weirdness Continues
What a weird week of fantasy football. I feel like I've been saying that every week, but it's pretty true. Every week provides a weird quirk, a weird injury, or a guy getting 4 receiving touchdowns against the Vikings defense.
Team Provost starts Marvin Jones, takes down Hamilton Rod and Gun, 127-84.5
Provost basically was held hostage into starting Marvin Jones this week, thanks to roster mismanagement and 2 other WRs on bye. But it worked out for him. Dude didn't even get to 100 yards receiving, despite 10 catches and STILL caught 4 TDs. Provost also was helped by the absolute ineptitude of the Jets goal line defense, allowing Sony Michel 3 TDs. Those 7 TDs from 2 players was definitely more than some entire rosters had this week (looking at you, Iron Ryan). HRG looks pretty vulnerable, thanks to his many Cowboys starters, and a kicker on an absolutely terrible offense.
Hardcore Sacks sits a 3-TD player, still pulls out win over Hooked on a Thielen, 124-82.5
When David Johnson is listed as active, you play him. There's no doubt about that. I mean, how can you know Kliff Kingsbury is going to lie straight to the faces of everyone and just not play the man. Luckily for Hardcore, Chase Edmonds 34 points weren't needed to topple HOTA, since he only had one player with single digit points in his lineup. HOTA was not as lucky; he got 22 points from Lamar Jackson, 16 from Lenny Fournette and not much else. Other than 43 from Aaron Rodgers on his bench. He'll be glad Nick Chubb is back from his bye this week.
Released Dix On Boobies overcomes Damien Williams, tips over Utah Falco 114-68
Yes, that headline is a reference to Falco's truck from The Replacements. (didn't want that to go unnoticed.) A combination of injuries and bye weeks really doomed UF here. Only Tom Brady scored any points on his bench. And he should have used Brady, because Matt Ryan actually cost him points. Not that it would have mattered, because Matthew Stafford threw for damn near 400 yards and 4 TDs against the defense that Boobies (heh) started. Thankfully, he also has Dalvin Cook who is laying waste to whatever defense is put in front of him.
The Jeff Fisher Effect takes advantage of opponents low score, tops Pedro Pickles 107.5-75
It's the third straight time JFE has faced an opponent who scored in the 70s, and the second time he was able to grab a victory. The point differential for JFE is just insane (see more, later on). Darren Waller was a baller, Stefon Diggs was good, and everyone else kind of held up their end of the bargain. He certainly was helped by injuries to Patrick Mahomes and Will Fuller, and Devonta Freeman forgetting he's tiny and trying to punch Aaron Donald and getting ejected. Those 3 players combined for 9.5 fantasy points, and it was basically over.
Death Valley Driver wins Banville Bowl, softens Iron Ryan 96-59
I-Ry has teh second fewest points scored in the league, yet still manages to have a winning record. His team just did nothing this week, posting the lowest point total in the league this season. Dak Prescott was his only player in double figures. Meanwhile, DVD continues to hold the trump card in the Patriots defense, which this week made the game look more like a battle and less like a pillow fight.
Rock the Tidwell
Team Provost earned the Tidwell this week, his first of the season.
This is Point-less
So, The Jeff Fisher Effect has 635 points scored this year, almost 30 fewer than the next lowest (Iron Ryan) and 189 less than top point-getter Hooked on a Thielen. The Effect ALSO has the fewest points against on the season, at 615. The second lowest points against? Also Iron Ryan with 689.
So, as bad an "offense" as The Effect has been able to muster, his "defense" has been very good. Fewest points scored in the league and STILL has a +20 point differential (Iron Ryan actually has a -25 point differential, yet a better record).
Your points leader, Hooked on a Thielen also has a negative point differential (-12.5). But the first-place Death Valley Driver has a +97.5 differential.
Such a weird season.
Will Week 8 be weird? Probably, but we won't know until we play it.
Until next time, America.

Week 6, or The Later Than Usual Ones
From last week's 6-team 3-2 mess, to this week: FOUR teams at 4-2, four more at 2-4 and two at 3-3. It's a weird set of standings, and it's kind of a weird year in fantasy football. I'm back to the "regular" format this week so...
RECAPS!
Death Valley Driver takes home Tidwell, takes down Utah Falco 161-100.5
Man, that Patriots defense is just killing people. They're averaging TWICE what the Bears defense averaged last year, and they've helped DVD to his 4-2 record. And this week, thanks to 2 TDs from Tyreek Hill, it didn't hurt DVD that he played Darius Slayton, who no one has ever heard of before this week, including NY Giants coaches. Utah Falco is 2-4, but has the 4th most points, thanks in large part to Christian McCaffrey. He's had some bad luck in his opponents, who have scored the most points against him.
Hooked On A Thielen smacks Released Dix On Boobies, 126-102.5
Lamar Jackson reminded the league he's still a thing, and that basically made the difference in this one. All the other position scores were pretty close, but Matthew Stafford wasn't good enough on Monday night (not entirely his fault; more on that later). Both these teams are right where they ought to be in terms of points and record.
Pedro Pickles sacks Hardcore Sacks, 107.5-73.5
It's REALLY tough to win when you have a player go down with an injury before scoring any points (kind of a theme this week) and when your QB throws for 78 yards in an entire game (Sam Darnold threw for 92 on one play this week against the Cowboys). A theme for Hardcore has been bench points this year, but even that wouldn't have saved him this week. Not to take anything away from Pickles, who finally had some luck break his way this week.
Iron Ryan defeats Team Provost 91.5-87
The amount of luck that has gone into this fantasy football season is somewhat astonishing. Despite scoring the second FEWEST points, I-Ry is sitting in possession of a playoff spot. It's somewhat impressive. It does help when you've also allowed the second fewest points against. George Kittle and Dak Prescott did most of his damage this week. I'm also not sure how Philip Rivers and Dak scored as many points as they did, with as bad as their teams looked in their respective losses. Garbage time is a helluva thing, I guess.
Hamilton Rod and Gun tops The Jeff Fisher Effect, 73-65
Oh holy shit. There's not much to say about this matchup. Literally all day Sunday, it looked like this:
It's the second time in three weeks JFE had an opponent put up a putrid score and fail to win. The Effect has the fewest points scored, and it's not close (527.5, next lowest is 612) but also the fewest points against. It's not helping, he's 2-4. HRG is 4-2, is third and scoring and this week might be considered an anomaly, except that it's the second time in three weeks he failed to make it to 75 points. To sum up: HRG is gonna be fine. JFE is in deep trouble.

Week 5, or a Hardcore 50th Win
Congratulations to Hardcore Sacks on his 50th all-time win! He topped Hamilton Rod & Gun this week, 164.5-104. It's Hardcore's first Tidwell of the season, and could have been an even bigger week, considering he left Aaron Jones (45.5 points) and Josh Jacobs (28.5 points) on his bench, who would have outscored the RBs he started. HRG got a big week from Amari Cooper, but it wasn't enough. He's currently tied to a LOT of Cowboys (which no one is really shocked by).
HRG's 104 points would have been enough to beat The Jeff Fisher Effect, who is 2-3 and has scored the fewest points in the league. "Allowing" the fewest points against helps (I guess he's playing good defense?). JFE was lucky Wayne Gallman got concussed, and Mike Evans only ran around on the field for the Buccaneers, but you don't get points for routes run. (Interesting scoring idea though.) JFE failed to top 90 points for the third time in 5 games, but escaped with the win 89-70.5. His team is junk.
Iron Ryan beat JFE last week only scoring 70 points. This week, he vastly improved his scoring but didn't manage to continue the luck; he lost this week to Utah Falco, 125.5-117. Falco continues to get enormous production out of Christian McCaffrey, and serviceable performances from the rest of his team. I-Ry might have won if he'd played DJ Chark (doo doo) and his 33 points.
Meanwhile, Released Dix On Boobies, who drafted DJ Chark LAST year, topped Pedro Pickles this week, 117.5-98. Pickles had the top scorer in the matchup in Michael Thomas (36.5 points) but Boobies (heh) didn't have the glaring donut put up by Sammy Watkins. Pickles instead kept Will Fuller (49 points!) on his bench.
Speaking of leaving big points on his bench, Death Valley Driver didn't play Deshaun Watson, the guy who threw to Will Fuller, but he still managed to escape with the win over Hooked On A Thielen, 115.5-113. HOTA left his namesake on the bench again, and it burned him.
So with all this, we have SIX teams sitting at 3-2. And looking at points, I-Ry is 9th overall in points for, but is 3-2. Pickles, currently our only 1-4 team, has 20 more points than I-Ry, and 71! more than Fisher Effect, yet trails each of them in the standings. It's a bit of tough luck that will probably even itself out as the season goes along.
I mean, there's no way the Commish keeps winning putting up so few points. It just can't happen.
Odds (pulled out of thin air, not actual math even a little) of finishing as The Worst this year:
The Jeff Fisher Effect - 1-2
Iron Ryan - 1-1
Pedro Pickles - 2-1
Everyone else - no bet, because it ain't happening
We move on to Week 6...

Week 4, or Some Teams Should Give Up
It was the lowest total scoring week of the year in STPS, and there are a few teams who should probably be legitimately concerned about their season to this point.
Hooked On A Thielen goes off, takes down Utah Falco, 147-129
Tough luck week for Falco, who would have beaten anyone else this week but HOTA. That's the way the cookie crumbles sometimes though (not the only weird matchup like that this week). HOTA didn't play his namesake (smart move: Thielen got 1 point) but maybe should rename his team involving Nick Chubb and his 38.5 points.
Death Valley Driver topples Pedro Pickles, 117.5-87
DVD didn't seem to care about Mecole Hardman losing a point for him this week. Or that Deshaun Watson laid a stinker. After Davante Adams put up a big week on Thursday night, that's all he really needed. A week after riding Mark Ingram to a huge point total, Ingram disappointed for Pedro Pickles this week. Even Patrick Mahomes "underperformed."
Hardcore Sacks, uh, hardcore sacks Team Provost, 115-109.5
With Wayne Gallman doing his best Saquon imitation, it looked like Provost was going to walk away with this matchup. And then Jared Goff and Cooper Kupp brought Hardcore back, giving him the birthday comeback win. Provost had the bad luck of Marlon Mack getting injured mid-game, or we might be singing a different tune.
Released Dix On Boobies pops Hamilton Rod and Gun, 100-69.5
HRG was by far our highest scoring team going into Week 4, and put up the second lowest score of the week (The Commish apparently felt bad and decided to take that mantle for the week; more on that next). His usual studs just didn't have studly weeks: Keenan Allen had a long TD called back on penalty and Zeke and the Cowboys offense looked like the white stuff that accumulates in the corners of your mouth when you're really thirsty. Boobies (heh) had a solid day from his team, including big ones from Kenny Golladay and James Conner.
Iron Ryan tops Jeff Fisher Effect in pillow fight, 70-67.5
I cannot tell you how hard I was rooting for a tie in this matchup. Honestly, neither of these teams deserved to win this game. Why do I say that? Combine their scores, and they still don't beat HOTA this week. This was just a god awful showing by both teams. JFE's top scorers were his kicker and his defense. NONE of his skill players scored in double digits. I-Ry basically rode his two RBs (fittingly enough) to this victory; they combined for 31.5 of his 70 points. Honestly, these two teams should each think about giving up the season. Wait...Iron Ryan is 3-1?? Sometimes, that's the way the cookie crumbles.
Make Money, Money, Make Money, Monaaaay
Hooked on a Thielen tops the league this week for his second Tidwell of the season. Through 4 weeks, we have only 2 Tidwell winners. Not surprisingly, they are in first and second place.
Interesting Stuff through 4 weeks
So here's some weird/fun/interesting things through the first 4 weeks of the season:
Hooked On A Thielen goes off, takes down Utah Falco, 147-129
Tough luck week for Falco, who would have beaten anyone else this week but HOTA. That's the way the cookie crumbles sometimes though (not the only weird matchup like that this week).

Hooked on a Thielen tops the league this week for his second Tidwell of the season. Through 4 weeks, we have only 2 Tidwell winners. Not surprisingly, they are in first and second place.
Interesting Stuff through 4 weeks
So here's some weird/fun/interesting things through the first 4 weeks of the season:
- Who has the most points against on the season? Yeah, that would be Hooked On A Thielen, who's 3-1 (it helps that he's score the second most). Fewest points against? That would be Iron Ryan, also 3-1. We know HRG has scored the most points. The fewest? Your Commish, JFE (who also happens to have the second fewest points against). HRG has the third fewest points against.
- So to summarize: your fewest points against are I-Ry (3-1), JFE (1-3) and HRG (3-1).
- In the last two weeks, DVD is 1-1. He lost in Week 3 by 30.5 points, and then won in Week 4 by 30.5. So he's technically "even" over the last two weeks.
- We've had three separate instances this season where a team has scored 109.5 points. Prior to this year, there were only five total instances of 109.5 points.
Something That Irrationally Excites Me
You guys know I've been tracking stats for the entire history of the league. We currently have two owners sitting at 49 all-time wins: Tim and Kevin. And the part that excites me? THEY PLAY EACH OTHER IN WEEK 5! Winner is the first in STPS history to 50 wins.
And so, I bring back....The KevMeme.
And we're on to Week 5!
