Congrats to Top Scorer...TMW
WINNER’S CIRCLE! - So nice to be among a winning group, with winning ways, winning teams, winning players! You make DFFL a shining example for all those who yearn to understand the makeup of a platinum dynasty fantasy league in these trying fantasy production times! Congratulations to:
(TMW⭐⭐⭐🦶🛡️), (KED⭐⭐⭐⭐🦶🛡️), (TIU⭐⭐🛡️🛡️), (JWW⭐⭐⭐), (UGG⭐⭐🦶🛡️), and (NUT🦶) in order of points scored (Look, Ma, you made it NUT!).
DEATH BY THOUSANDS CUTS - So sad for those loser teams who are one week closer to rebuilding their loser ways, abandoning loser players, and even changing their loser names than they even realize #loo-oo-oo-sers. Better luck next week for:
(RAF⭐), (CAB), (PTS⭐🦶), (MTT⭐), (DNF⭐), and (DMM⭐) in order of losing points scored in sad, sad losses (time for nuclear option, DMM?).
(KEY: 🛡️-Top 5 Defense/ST, 🦶-Top 5 Kicker, ⭐-Top 5 Player Q/R/W/T) AWARDS - Need a new tire from that blowout?

2022: PTS (1), UGG (2), TIU (1), TMW (2)
Historical: DNF 246.5
Low-ered Ex-pect-aaa-tions! - When your best not only isn’t good enough, it just plain sucks!
- DMM (1) not only “wins” this award, but managed to get the lowest score of the season thus far at 82.50 points; possibly in the lowest 5 scores in DFFL history (I’ll have to check).
2022: TMW (1), JWW (1), PTS (1), MTT (1), NUT (1), DMM (1)
Historical: OIE 66.04 (MTT before MTT) This ain’t horseshoes or hand grenades.
- RAF (2) with 142.62 gets this participation award, achieving the highest score for a losing team for the second week in a row!
2022: CAB (1) , PTS (1), DMM (1), TIU (1), RAF (2)
Historical: JWW 200.88 Better lucky?
- NUT (2) posted the lowest score in a win this week, beating DMM with a score of 125.92.
2022: UGG (1), RAF (1), DMM (1), MTT (1), NUT (2)
Historical: CAB 102.7 Ford, Chevy, or Ram?
- Best pickup or start / sit decision (s)…UGG gets this award for trading away (essentially, sitting) Lamar Jackson and keeping and starting Joe “Cool” Burrow who scored a whopping, and season best for Burrow, 44.50 points! Had he kept LaJax and started him, UGG would have lost this week.
2022: NUT (1), JWW (3), UGG (2)
Historical: EJT 58.25 “FitzMagic” (EJT was prior KAK?? PTS??) Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda.
- UGG (1) gets this award, mostly as a result of there not being a ton of material this week. He achieves this by leaving two Homers on his bench in favor of two gomers from outside Foxboro (shameful!). Had he started New England’s platinum Defense and TE Hunter Henry over Eagles and Everett he woulda added almost another 20 points to his score and made this game much less of a squeaker.
2022: DMM (1), TMW (1) , JWW (1), MTT (1), PTS (1), TIU (1), NUT (1), UGG (1)
Titanic Deck Chairs (Making “Bold” moves in spite of “assured” disaster…but I’m unsinkable!?!) Maiden award for those of us who feel the need to make transactions, only to realize it helps/helped us not. This will likely only go to losers with losing records each week, but even winners can achieve this award if the move is #SMH enough.
- RAF (2) gets this award for a second week and a row! Thinking he had a shot to make it across the Fantasy Ocean with no issues at all, he traded his 2023 1st for Joe Mixon. So sure of his unsinkability this week, he started 2 Packers wideouts, and didn’t even bat an eye. “God, himself, couldn’t sink this ship!” He belted, heading into Sunday’s matchup with TIU. Then, as he rounded the coast of Fantasy Relevancy on Monday Night, he struck a Mike Williams iceberg, and…well…glub, glub, glub..
2022: PTS (1), CAB (1), RAF (2)
