A couple days late, but here is the breakdown of Super Performances for TBFL action in Week Three….a special milestone is reached, and some extra stats for the Chris Thomas 5 Star Pick 3 Contest….
Money Inc. Quarterback Drew Brees makes his first appearance on this list, beating out The Dreamiest Quarterback In The Universe for the award by a single point….He managed 370 passing yards with 3 TDs and 2 successful 2-pt Conversions against the woeful Whales defense….
Money Inc. doubles up this week as their Running Back Darren McFadden takes his second straight award for the position….171 yards on the ground with 2 trips to the endzone again prove that this back is worthy of his Franchise Tag….
Another week, and another Wide Receiver of the Week award goes to Runs N Throses….Wes Welker takes down his second award this year in an outstanding 16 catch effort….he more than doubled up the century mark in yardage while going for pay dirt twice in a season high 50 point effort….
As more proof that kickers are a complete crap shoot, we have our third award winner, from a third different team in three weeks….unfortunately for the Grandmasters, Neil Rackers 4 FGs and 3 XPs made him the second highest scorer on the team in their Tits & Ammo Night loss to Armed N Dangerous….which begs the question….’Why was he not distracted by all those women?’
Playground Legends MVP so far this year has been their dominating Baltimore Ravens Defensive unit….5 Sacks, 2 Turnovers and a defensive score sealed their 6 Point victory over Bay Area Thrashers in their battle for control of the Storm Division and gets them their second Defense of the Week award on the year….
For the season, Runs N Throses leads with 5 POTW awards followed by Money Inc with 3, and Playground Legends with 2….
Team of the Week
How do you beat perfection?….That is the question every TBFL owner has on their lips right now as Runs N Throses takes down their second straight Team of the Week award with a 100% efficiency rating….The 171 point dismantling of the X-Factor defense ties for the third highest score in league history and becomes RnT’s 100th Overall Victory in the TBFL….They are the first team to reach that Milestone, although a few more have a shot to be there by years end:
Team | Wins | RegSea/Playoff |
Runs N Throses | 100 | (95/5) |
Bubba Army | 96 | (89/7) |
UO Grandmasters | 91 | (83/8) |
Bay Area Thrashers | 90 | (81/9) |
The amazing performance pushes their All-Play record after three weeks to 32-1, just a FG away from the Warriors in Week One from total domination….
Chump of the Week
The fall from grace for the Fudgie Whales is apparently not over yet, as they claim this award for the second straight week….Their point totals continue to fall as only 3 players manged better than single digits in their 67 point outing….throwing out the 171 point elephant outlier from the Week 3 totals, average scoring was down for the week to 103 points, still nearly 150% higher than their current output….
5 Star Bonus Section
