Should we do recaps?
RECAPS!
Team Provost pops Pedro Pickles, 137-95.5
Provost improves to 7-2, and hands Pickles a loss he really wanted to avoid. Provost had 20 point weeks from Aaron Rodgers, Keenan Allen and Will Fuller to lead him to the Tidwell. There really was nothing Pickles could do this week, with bye weeks for Kareem Hunt and Travis Fulgham, and a Kenny Golladay injury. He's not out of it, by any stretch.
Interesting note: when Pedro Pickles breaks 100 points this year, he breaks 100 points. In the 5 games he's broken 100, he's had 149, 181, 125, 151.5 and 126 points. When he doesn't break 100, he's got 93, 89.5, 82.5 and 95.5. That 98.5 point difference between top score and bottom score is the most in the league this year.
Released Dix On Boobies tops The Jeff Fisher Effect, 135-108
It's now FIVE straight wins for Boobies (heh) who, until this year, had never won more than three in a row. He's tied for second, and I think is pretty happy Dalvin Cook is back. Honestly, his team looks good, especially now that Michael Thomas is back. Meanwhile, it's just not The Effect's year. His team his OK (I guess, which is easy for me to say) but he's not catching any breaks, and has no RBs.
Regress To The Mean drops Death Valley Driver, 109-99
RTTM did just enough to get it done here, which is made somewhat more impressive by his opponent who started Josh Allen (32.5 points) and Davante Adams (29 points). Lucky for RTTM, DVD had basically nothing otherwise. He mentioned it in the GroupMe, but it looks like DVD's hopes of a three-peat are a pipe dream now.
Iron Ryan chops Hamilton Rod and Gun, 104.5-101.5
I-Ry was able to overcome David Johnson's early concussion, thanks in large part to Kyler Murray's 37.5 points. DK Metcalf didn't hurt him either. HRG can thank Tyreek for keeping him in it, and the Jets D for injuring Damien Harris and holding him to 7 points on Monday night. Going into the Monday Night game, I-Ry was up 104.5-94.5, and Harris had a projection of 9.9 points.
Utah Falco stops Hardcore Sucks, 81.5-76.5
Remember the end of last week's Notes, when I mentioned this game and then said "Eh, who cares?" Yeah, the sentiment is the same now.
Money Makes The Heart Grow Fonder?
Team Provost earned his second Tidwell is the year, and 6th all-time.
Looking Ahead to Week 10
- Team Provost is 8-4 all-time against Boobies (heh). This is one is probably the matchup of the week.
- RTTM is 8-5 all-time against HRG, who needs a win to keep pace for the playoffs.
- Utah Falco is over .500 all time (7-6) against Pickles. These two teams also have the same 4-5 records this season, but are headed in COMPLETELY opposite directions.
- DVD owns a 6-5 record all-time against The Effect. Because it makes me feel better, remember they met in the championship game in consecutive years.
- Hardcore leads the all-time series with I-Ry 6-4. I-Ry is sitting in the 4th playoff spot right now, and would like to win to stay involved. I-Ry's last 3 weeks: won by 3, lost by 4, won by 3.
Starting in Week 11, I'll start analyzing rest of season stuff, and how important some of the matchups are going forward. It's about the only thing I can do to make myself feel good about this league. Other than buy some more swag with our logo on it.
