What is going on? TC, the man that started off 0-8 last season is 2-0 after beating the Rhodes bros in back-to-back weeks. Curtis, after drafting Tyreek Hill 12 spots ahead of his expert consensus rank, and 9 spots ahead of his average draft position, who didn’t even have a first round draft pick, and started the season with the absolute worst pre-season power rank, is 2-0, with Tyreek sitting at the #4 spot in most points. And Jack, who started the pre-season power-ranked #14 has put up the most points in the league back-to-back weeks, or at least would have had the Bears DST not gone off against the Seahawks last night and snatched top scoring team of the week for Drew’s benefit.
Head coach of the Children of Jackos, the winningest coach of all-time in the IFL is 0-2 for the first time in history. Only 2 in 14 teams have ever made the playoffs after starting 0-2 (14% odds).
And then there’s Ewoldt, who after starting off the season with a pre-season power ranking of #1, is 2-0, living up to the hype.
So how’d we get here? In our game of the week, #9 power-ranked Barry Manilow’s Big Finishers manhandled Curtis’s Dropped Bar of Soap 157 - 111. The current heavyweight champ didn’t hold back any punches, slinging Cousins, Adams, Thomas and John Brown for a combined 104 points. Nick, the IFL Superbowl I Champ, just couldn’t keep up.
The IFL STARS are proving just that, with phenoms Tyreek Hill, Will Fuller, and Chris Thompson each putting up 20+, Curtis’s boys put up 140 against Brat10, and his respectable 121 point performance.
TC has now beat both Rhodes brothers in back to back weeks, and his game against Joe this week was an absolute belt-whipping. Diggs lead the charge with 36 pts, and Watson, Powell, and Kamara combining for 60, the Stranger Bros were devastated, with 4 players scoring less than 5 pts, getting creamed by TC 64 - 143.
Our first ever Bounty Brawl game went the way of Chris and his squad Hooked on a Thielen, in big part thanks to his namesake, and Adam Thielen’s 31 point performance. Chris will carry the $20 Bounty into his next game against TC.
The Cul-de-Sack has a historically awful week, while Dirty Doc n the Boys go huge and take the top spot.
Division Overall W-L:
CdS: 58-62
DD&B: 75-45

Best marks of the week go to Anton and Chris, with Anton being the only person to correctly pick Allen Robinson as the top scoring Monday Night player.
Week 3 here we come.
