Oriol scored 160.4, the high of the week, and left 35.7 more on the bench. Three Bengals scored 108.3 between them for three different teams, and all three won. The commissioner won his sixth straight with the seventh-best score in the league, which is printed here first so nobody has to bring it up.
The seventh-best score of the week won, because Joe scored the tenth. Parker Washington started and scored 3.6 while DeMario Douglas scored 16.6 on the bench, a 13-point gap, and Bijan Robinson missed his projection by 12.5. Six straight wins, a losing record against the field, and the man who wrote the report is not allowed to call that skill.
Better than half the league, and the closest game of the week, by 16.1. Tony Pollard scored 28.7 and the Jaguars D/ST 20 on an 8.4 projection. The opponent had two starters on zero and still found 37.5 from one receiver. The rookie is 1-7 and scored more than the team in second place.
Five passing touchdowns and a rushing one, 39.5 on a 22.9 projection, in a 70-point win, the widest of the week. Patrick Mahomes scored 25.4 on the bench and it did not matter, because it was the right call. A second straight perfect lineup: last week 100% lost by 47.4, this week 100% won by 70. Up a seed to fourth.
Lamar Jackson scored 0 on a 22.2 projection, the biggest bust of the week, and Zay Flowers 0 on 20.1. Tee Higgins scored 37.5 on 15.5, the biggest overperformance in the league, and Bhayshul Tuten 29.9. The lowest manager rating of the week, 80.9%, with Harold Fannin Jr.'s 23.4 on the bench, and the second-best score anyway. Up a seed to seventh, on the right side of the line.
Last week Jordan Love scored 17 on the bench. This week he started and scored 21.5, Michael Wilson added 26.8 on a 12.7 projection, and nothing on the bench would have done better. The opponent was the autodraft bot, which started DeVonta Smith, questionable and projected 0, for the second week running, and got 0 for the second week running. It is consistent. Up a seed to ninth.
Projected for 106.5. Aaron Rodgers scored 4.9, DK Metcalf 1.6, Emanuel Wilson 0 and the Jets D/ST 1. The best lineup available was 68.5, so this one was not the bench. The defending champion has lost three straight and is 2-6, eleventh, with six weeks to find the 2011 version.
Jonah Coleman scored 20.4 on the bench while Jonathan Taylor started and scored 6.7, a 13.7-point gap. Spencer Shrader scored 1 on a 10.4 projection and Tre Tucker 0. Six wins to open the season, two losses since, and down two seeds from first to third on points.
The highest projection in the league for the second straight week. Last week it came in at 114.9 and lost. This week Puka Nacua scored 25, Jahmyr Gibbs 24.8 and Braelon Allen 23.3, a 95.8% lineup, and the only real miss was Will Reichard's 1. 4-4, sixth. Four finals, no rings, and for one week the paper and the scoreboard agreed.
Dalton Kincaid scored 18.6 on the bench while Hunter Henry started and scored 6, a 12.6-point gap. Bam Knight started, questionable and projected 0, and scored 0.8. Josh Allen scored 26.6 and the Steelers D/ST 19. None of it would have caught 160.4. Two straight losses, down a seed to fifth.
Saquon Barkley scored 12.4 on the bench while Ty Johnson started and scored 5.3. CeeDee Lamb scored 12.8 on a 20.1 projection. Dak Prescott's 19.8 was the best on the roster, and the best lineup available was 88.4, against Yael's 120.7. Down a seed to tenth at 3-5.
Oriol scored the most points of the week, beat all eleven other lineups, and still rated 81.8%, because the best lineup he owned would have scored 196.1.
Ja'Marr Chase scored 31.3, Brock Bowers 28.2 on two touchdowns, and D'Andre Swift 27.9 on three. Up two seeds to first, ahead of Uriel and Joe at 6-2 on points, and first in the power rankings. One ring, 2018, and the best roster in the league to go after a second.
Top 7 make the playoffs. Ties broken by total points scored.
