Power Pros Forum

This year marks the tenth season of the MLBPPWORLD Fantasy Football League! Thanks to everyone over the years who have kept this league so fun and competitive despite the lack of a buy-in. The biggest question this year is whether Team Griffith, who became the first repeat champion in 2022-23, will be able to three-peat. Here is a summary of how the league is shaping up:

Past Champions:
2015: GoTwins24
2016: Prediction
2017: ZeroGibson13
2018: AgentP
2019: GoTwins24
2020: Queso James
2021: iPump Plastic
2022: Team Griffith
2023: Team Griffith

Team Storylines:

Team Griffith (jag123jg):
Team Griffith will look to three-peat in 2024 with a core of CeeDee Lamb, Travis Etienne, and Travis Kelce.

Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value (dishnet34):
After a hot start last year, Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value faded out of the postseason. They will look to stay more consistent this year with a core of Jahmyr Gibbs, Joe Mixon, and AJ Brown.

One Man Revolution (GoTwins24):
It was a disappointing end to a fun fantasy season for One Man Revolution as they were crushed in the championship round. They will look to bounce back with a core of Saquon Barkley, Jonathan Taylor, and Cooper Kupp.

Detroit Phantoms (jag123jg):
The last two seasons have been quite unlucky for the Phantoms, as they have missed the playoffs despite strong rosters in each of those years. They will do so with a core of Ja'Marr Chase, Kyren Williams, and Nico Collins.

North Pole Narwhals (AnthonyP):
Last season was an underwhelming first season in the league for the Narwhals, so they will look to improve this year. They are relying on a core of Puka Nacua, Alvin Kamara, and Patrick Mahomes.

Chattini FC (Glassy):
Chattini FC makes their league debut this season, replacing 2021 champion iPump Plastic. Their first core is Breece Hall, Josh Allen, and Garrett Wilson, which is a legitimate trio.

Teiyo Tomozawas (Muffinz):
Last season was the first time the Tomozawas missed the playoffs, and so they will look to return this year. Bijan Robinson, Davante Adams, and Mike Evans will try to get them there.

Nick's No Autopicks (PhilliesFan134):
As the name suggests, Nick's No Autopicks got to pick their team this year, and they are hoping this pays off. They are led by De'Von Achane, Tyreek Hill, and Jalen Hurts.

Mahomes on the Range (Lancer):
Mahomes on the Range had a solid debut season last year, but just missed the playoffs. They will look to rebound with a core of Derrick Henry, Josh Jacobs, and DK Metcalf.

Atomic Pickles (AgentP):
Despite a great regular season last year, the Atomic Pickles lost to the eventual champion in the playoffs, and are looking to prevent a repeat of that this year. They went WR-heavy, going with Justin Jefferson, Drake London, and Isiah Pacheco as their core three.

Goodells Security Team (BBallTeen9500):
Goodells Security Team got off to a rough start in 2023, but managed to improve as they got healthier down the stretch. This year, Kenneth Walker, Amon-Ra St. Brown, and Chris Olave will look to lead them to a better season.

Wesley All Stars (Wesley):
It was a good debut season for Wesley All Stars last year, but they just missed the playoffs. After getting the top pick, they selected Christian McCaffrey, and paired him with the Juniors: Michael Pittman, Jr. and Marvin Harrison, Jr.

Best of luck in 2024! Excited for my eighth season of writing recaps and the tenth season in league history!!

MLBPPWORLD FANTASY WEEK 1 RECAP

One Man Revolution (GoTwins24) 151.38
Detroit Phantoms (DTigers115) 146.4

Summary:
One Man Revolution pulled off a Sunday Night miracle in an incredible bounceback from their championship game loss. On Sunday night, they needed Cooper Kupp to outscore both Kyren Williams and Sam LaPorta- a tough task. But Kupp looked like his 2021 self and did just that. Saquon Barkley was indispensible in the win, scoring 32 Friday night. Chris Godwin, the team's 2019 championship hero, delivered a strong 18-point outing. Jason Sanders, a late kicking pick-up, drilled a game-winning 50-yarder for Miami, which ended up being a decisive moment. The team will need Jonathan Taylor to be better, but he received a good chunk of snaps, so he should be fine. Overall, it was a great start for a team that usually struggles. It was a heartbreaking loss for the Phantoms. Had Jordan Love stayed healthy, they almost certainly would have won. There were several encouraging signs for the Phantoms- mainly Jayden Reed, Rashee Rice, and James Conner. They should be playoff contenders even with the brutal Week 1 loss.

Team Griffith (jag123jg) 108.26
Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value (Dishnet34) 138.66

Summary:
It was a similar script to the beginning of last year for Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value, who defeated Team Griffith by over 30. They did so on the backs of the Cowboys' defense, who scored over 20. But their RB core was also excellent, with Gibbs and Mixon combining for 40. Gibbs and Mixon could be one of the best RB cores in the league, and they showed this potential this week. AJ Brown was also strong. They have a concern at TE after Jake Ferguson's injury, so they may need to turn to the waiver wire. Still, it was another strong start for Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value. The defending champion had a rough Week 1, but they also got off to a slow start in 2023. Their kicker, Brandon Aubrey, was their highest scorer, which is usually a bad sign. A positive was Rhamondre Stevenson, who silenced concerns by scoring 20. Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb did not do much, but that can be attributed to a blowout gamescript. Their biggest concern is at flex, as their flexes combined for less than 10. Jaylen Wright could be an option with De'Von Achane injured, but this is probably the biggest concern for Team Griffith at the moment.

Chattini FC (Glassy) 151.48
North Pole Narwhals (AnthonyP) 96.94

Summary:
It was a statement league debut for Chattini FC, who scored the highest point total in the league this week. Josh Allen was a big reason why Team Griffith won the 2023 title, and he appears to be a fantasy powerhouse once again. Aaron Jones, Brian Robinson and Breece Hall were a strong RB core. If Garrett Wilson and Devonta Smith do better than their combined 20 points in the future, Chattini FC will be the league's strongest team. It's hard to point to a concern outside of Flex 2. For the Narwhals, it was a tough week, especially with Puka Nacua's injury. Nacua will miss at least four weeks, which will be a major blow to the team, as they lack options on the bench. Only two position players, Alvin Kamara and Patrick Mahomes, scored in double digits, and even Mahomes was disappointing by scoring 14. It is early, but there are some concerns for the Narwhals.

Nick's No Autopicks (PhilliesFan134) 135.22
Wesley All Stars (Wesley) 76.38

Summary:
It was an emphatic start to the season for Nick's No Autopicks, who benefitted greatly from Chicago's special teams masterclass. Cairo Santos and Chicago's defense combined for 41 points, which was more than half of Wesley All Star's total. Despite early drama, Tyreek Hill was the team's scoring leader with 22.5. De'Von Achane was great, but suffered an ankle injury. Jameson Williams looks strong off the bench, though, so they can do some maneuvering to replace Achane temporarily if needed. Like many teams, their TE struggled, as Dalton Kincaid scored just 1.5. This is shocking as the Bills don't have many passing threats. Still, Nick's No Autopicks seem primed for a better season than they've had recently. It was a brutal week for Wesley All Stars with Christian McCaffrey out injured and Jordan Mason off their roster. Anthony Richardson and Xavier Worthy were great, but aside from them, there were some real clunkers- including Brandon Aiyuk, Jaleel McLaughlin, Michael Pittman, and Marvin Harrison, Jr. With McCaffrey out, it could be dicey for Wesley All Stars.

Teiyo Tomozawas (MUFFINZ) 145.36
Atomic Pickles (AgentP) 102.56

Summary:
The Tomozawas want to show that last season, their first time missing the playoffs, was a fluke. They did so with a 43-point victory. Jayden Daniels could be a draft steal, as he dropped 28 points. JK Dobbins could also be a steal as he dropped over 20 as well. Aside from the breakouts, Mike Evans was as consistent as usual with 20. Even Kyle Pitts was the best tight end of the week, which is a step-up for him. Davante Adams was the only position player who scored under 10, and if he can overcome poor QB play, the Tomozawas will be scary. The Atomic Pickles fell victim to the 1-seed curse last year, and are off to a tough start this year. Without Jake Moody, it would have been an even bigger disappointment, as their kicker dragged them to the century mark in points. Isiah Pacheco was the highest non-Moody scorer, scoring 14.8. Joe Burrow, Drake London, and Zamir White were terrible, which is a concern for the Pickles after spending significant draft capital on them. It's early, but the Pickles will need some of their higher picks to step up.

Mahomes on the Range (Lancer) 90.32
Goddells Security Team (BBallTeen9500) 77.04

Summary:
Mahomes on the Range won the lowest-scoring game of the week. It was a good start Thursday with Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry combining for 35. Tony Pollard was a pleasant surprise with 16.9, but everyone else underwhelmed. DK Metcalf and Keenan Allen each scored just 4. Jaylen Warren only scored 3, and Evan Engram only put up a single point. Still, it's always good to be 1-0 regardless of the circumstances, and the team should improve going forward. It was a rough start to 2023 for Goddells Security Team, and it was another rough start to 2024 for them. Their RB core of Kenneth Walker and David Montgomery were solid with 32 combined points, but this was sadly almost half of their total. Their pass-catchers were horrendous, with Jerry Jeudy somehow leading the way. Chris Olave, Amon-Ra St. Brown, and Mark Andrews were shockingly bad. Normal performances from any of them could have won this week. At 0-1, Goddells Security Team have to be a bit worried with how this week went.

Best of luck in Week 2!

MLBPPWORLD FANTASY WEEK 2 RECAP

One Man Revolution (GoTwins24) 132.04
North Pole Narwhals (AnthonyP) 130.64

Summary:
One Man Revolution has had a wild start to 2024 with back-to-back primetime miracle wins. This time, they needed 20 combined points from Saquon Barkley and Dallas Goedert to win. It almost did not happen, as Philadelphia started slow. They looked doomed to fall to 1-1 after Barkley came 0.5 yards short of the end zone and dropped a touchdown pass. But Atlanta took a late lead, forced Philly to throw, which led to a game-winning Dallas Goedert reception in the waning moments. It was a second straight stunning victory for One Man Revolution. Kyler Murray, Chris Godwin, and Malik Nabers were indispensible in getting them in position for the miracle win. There was a bit of bad news though, as Cooper Kupp will now miss a month or more with an ankle injury, and Jaylen Waddle lost Tua Tagovailoa, decreasing his value. Still, the team has to feel good about their first 2-0 start since 2017. It was a tough luck loss for the Narwhals, who somehow lost despite 43 points from Alvin Kamara. They can blame Ezekiel Elliot and Tyler Lockett, as they only combined for 6. Patrick Mahomes was also underwhelming with just 12, and DJ Moore was visibly frustrated Sunday night. Calvin Ridley was a bright spot with 22, but it wasn't enough to avoid a tough-luck, late loss.

Team Griffith (jag123jg) 112.92
Detroit Phantoms (DTigers115) 109.64

Summary:
The defending champion won their first game in a nailbiter. Ironically, they did so thanks to defense and special teams, as KC's defense and Brandon Aubrey combined for 30. Their runningback group looks to be decent, as Travis Etienne, Rhamondre Stevenson, and Jordan Mason all hovered around the 15 point mark. CeeDee Lamb also looks like one of the few early picks that is working out across the league. They will need more from Travis Kelce, as their 2022 hero somehow scored just over 1 point as his focus appears to have shifted away from football. Also, their flex position could use some work, as Keon Coleman failed to score a single point Thursday night. Javonte Williams is their best option on the bench, but they may need to look to the wire. Still, they have to be happy to be 1-1. The Phantoms fell to 0-2 in another close heartbreaker. As they pointed out, had they started Gus Edwards over Brandin Cooks, they would have narrowly won. But they can also point to QB play, as Matthew Stafford scored just 6 points. There wasn't much they could do with Jordan Love out, but with Kupp and Nacua injured, they should probably look for new options at QB. The bright spots were Kyren Williams, Nico Collins, and James Conner, who each appear to be strong starting options. Williams may even see a workload increase in the passing game with LA's numerous injuries. Still, at 0-2, it may be time to start worrying for the Phantoms.

Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value (Dishnet34) 69.7
Chattini FC (Glassy) 123.16

Summary:
Chattini FC is off to a great start as they improved to 2-0 in a dominant win. Breece Hall was their top pick, and he looked great this week with 20. He was actually tied with kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn, who also scored 20. DeVonta Smith, Trey McBride, and Brian Robinson were all solid, hovering around 15. Josh Allen, Garrett Wilson, and Aaron Jones were underwhelming, but this was more of a one-off for each of them, especially Josh Allen in a Thursday Night blowout. If they had one weakness, it would be at flex2 with Courtland Sutton struggling, but if Tee Higgins returns from injury, Chattini FC will have a near-complete roster. After a solid Week 1 win, Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value dropped to 1-1 in a nightmare week. It was a bad start from the beginning with AJ Brown being ruled out late. His replacement, Jahan Dotson, was atrocious with just a point. Tank Dell was also shockingly bad, scoring just 1. Isaiah Likely also may have been a one-week wonder, as he fell back to Earth with just 3 this week. The lone bright-spot was Zach Charbonnet, but his value could be handicapped once Kenneth Walker returns. The team will need Joe Mixon and AJ Brown to be healthy to legitimately compete.

Nick's No Autopicks (PhilliesFan134) 114.92
Teiyo Tomozawas (MUFFINZ) 112.64

Summary:
Nick's No Autopicks needed a Monday Night Miracle to win, and they got it. It looked as if they might lose with Jalen Hurts off to a slow start, but a late touchdown sealed the win as Hurts finished with just under 24. De'Von Achane was excellent despite his injury, scoring 23. Deebo Samuel had a strong effort, dropping 14. Jameson Williams was also solid, finishing with 11. The rest of the team struggled, and Tyreek Hill's value may be capped without Tua Tagovailoa. Dalton Kincaid has been a slow starter, and his team will need him to play up to his draft position. With the win, Nick's No Autopicks looks poised for a better season in 2024. It was a brutal loss for the Tomozawas, who thought they might have been able to go 2-0. Davante Adams was their best performer with over 20. JK Dobbins could be one of the steals of the draft as he scored 20. Tampa can be blamed for the loss as Mike Evans and Rachaad White combined for just 7. The Tomozawas will hope this is just an outlier and that Chris Godwin doesn't continue to hog the touches in Tampa. Still, at 1-1 they are in an okay position.

Wesley All Stars (Wesley) 78.76
Goddells Security Team (BaseballTeen9500) 90.86

Summary:
Goodells Security Team won their first game of the year, albeit with some matchup luck. David Montgomery was their leading scorer with 15. However, running-back is a nightmare for them, as they only have two startable players on their roster at RB. With Walker injured, they turned to Kenny McIntosh, who failed to score a single point. They went heavy at WR, but Terry McLaurin and DeAndre Hopkins' struggles may make this a tough bet. Still, Chris Olave and Amon-Ra St. Brown were good enough for them to avoid a catastrophic loss. They will need Kenny Walker to be healthy to have a shot. It's been a disaster for Wesley All Stars. They bet heavily on Christian McCaffrey, but his injury has destroyed their roster. Their RBs, Jaleel Mclaughlin and Justice Hill, combined for a shocking 4 points. Marvin Harrison was a standout for them, but one player scored nearly 30% of their points. Juwan Johnson, Brandon Aiyuk, Michael Pittman, and Xavier Worthy were all terrible. This may already be a lost season for Wesley All Stars, which would be a disappointment after they barely missed the 2023 playoffs.

Atomic Pickles (AgentP) 140.72
Mahomes on the Range (Lancer) 122.58

Summary:
The Atomic Pickles looked like their 2023 regular season team this week, scoring 140. It was a strong team effort, with all position players minus Zamir White scoring in double figures. James Cook set the tone Thursday night with a 28-point outing. Justin Jefferson scored a long touchdown, and Drake London and Zay Flowers bounced back. Brock Bowers looks like the steal of the year at TE, which is especially crucial given most teams' woes at TE this year. If the Pickles receive this level of play all year, they will be tough to beat. Mahomes on the Range suffered from some tough matchup luck, losing despite a solid 122 points. The biggest missed opportunity was Evan Engram, who scored a shockingly bad 0 points. Aside from Engram, basically everyone was solid. Darnell Mooney was a great fill-in for Keenan Allen as he scored a surprising 16. DK Metcalf was the team leader in scoring, and the Lamar-Henry duo was solid despite Baltimore's loss. Even with the loss, it was a decent week for Mahomes on the Range, and they should be in the playoff hunt again.

MLBPPWORLD FANTASY WEEK 3 RECAP

One Man Revolution (GoTwins24) 146.68
Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value (Dishnet34) 114.3

Summary:
Things all seem to be clicking for One Man Revolution, who are off to their best start since 2017. The last two seasons, they started 0-3, but this year has been a reversal. They currently boast the top-scoring RB (Saquon Barkley), the top-scoring WR (Malik Nabers), and top-scoring TE (Dallas Goedert). Additionally, Jonathan Taylor and Chris Godwin have been great, with JT scoring 26 this week and Godwin scoring yet another touchdown. If there was a concern for them, it would be at flex with D'Andre Swift and Jaylen Waddle laboring. However, they can probably just bide their time until Cooper Kupp returns, and Devin Singletary and Diontae Johnson also now appear to be solid starting options. If they can at least split their next two contests, they will be in great shape. It was a tough week for Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value, who are off to one of their toughest starts in a while. Their strength is clearly at the runningback position, with namesake Jahmyr Gibbs and strong pickup Zach Charbonnet combining for 40. However, flex could be improved as Jerome Ford and Carson Steele combined for just 15. Rome Odunze could be a promising option, but Keenan Allen will be returning soon. Had they played some other teams in the league, they would have won, which is impressive without Joe Mixon and AJ Brown. However, those two will need to return to health for them to stay afloat.

Detroit Phantoms (DTigers115) 117.28
North Pole Narwhals (AnthonyP) 92.98

Summary:
After a rough first two weeks, the Phantoms were happy to earn a comfortable win. They were propelled by three players: Kyren Williams, Ja'Marr Chase, and Rashee Rice. These three appear to be locks for strong performances going forward, which will keep the Phantoms around the 110-point mark at least. Jordan Love's injury has cost the team some points, as Derek Carr struggled this week. Also, Brandin Cooks hasn't been the best, scoring just 2 points this week. Sam LaPorta was also injured in the Phantoms' win, so without a backup TE on the roster, the Phantoms may have to turn to a weak-ish waiver wire for TE help. Still, it was a much-needed win for the Phantoms, who now avoid a dreaded 0-3 start. The Narwhals struggled after last week's heartbreaker. This can almost entirely be attributed to Alvin Kamara's drop-off this week. In Week 2, Kamara dropped 40, but he scored just 14 this week- solid but nowhere near 40. Patrick Mahomes has also not lived up to his draft position, scoring just 16 points on multiple turnovers. Ezekiel Elliot was invisible, and Austin Ekeler unfortunately suffered a concussion after looking the best he has since at least 2022. Overall, there weren't many bright spots for the Narwhals, who may not have the upside to overcome a tough 0-3 start.

Chattini FC (Glassy) 135.22
Team Griffith (jag123jg) 106.18

Summary:
The league's newest team keeps rolling, improving to 3-0 in a comfortable win. Josh Allen has historically been as reliable as they come, and this week was no exception with his 30-point outing. Allen helped lead Team Griffith to a title in 2023, but he cost him the win in Week 3. Aaron Jones also had a vintage performance, dropping 23. Breece Hall was also strong with 16, although there could be workload concerns with Braelon Allen starting to potentially emerge. If Garrett Wilson and DeVonta Smith can be just a little stronger, Chattini FC has a near-flawless roster. They are in a great spot early. The defending champion fell to 1-2, mostly because of Rhamondre Stevenson's shockingly bad 0.3 point showing, one of the worst performances in recent memory. Dak Prescott nearly matched Josh Allen's output despite a slow start. However, CeeDee Lamb was unable to get things going, dropping just 6.7. Jordan Mason also dropped off a bit, scoring just 9. Also, Travis Kelce has been a near no-show this season, and he scored just 5 this week. However, most tight ends have been terrible so far, negating a positional disadvantage, but using a high pick on Kelce could turn out to cost Team Griffith. Despite their slow start, they have overcome slow starts before and should still be in contention going forward.

Nick's No Auto-Picks (PhilliesFan134) 73.34
Goodells Security Team (BaseballTeen9500) 117.18

Summary:
Goodells Security Team improved to 2-1 with a stress-free victory. Brock Purdy led the way with over 25 points, but it was a solid team effort overall. Chris Olave and Amon-Ra St. Brown will be a strong WR duo going forward, and they combined for an impressive 34 this week. Terry McLaurin also gave his best performance in a while, scoring 18. If Jayden Daniels continues to play well, McLaurin can give Goodells Security Team a strong WR core. Their worst peformer was Mark Andrews, who had a shocking zero-point display- so bad that the team traded him in a deal that was later reversed. Cole Kmet scored 20 more, so he may be the starter in future weeks. Still, at 2-1, the team is in a better spot than they were in last year. It was a surprisingly poor showing from Nick's No Autopicks, who had a great first two weeks. Their WR1 and WR2 this week were Tyreek Hill and Jameson Williams, each of whom performed poorly. Demarcus Robinson and Cam Akera also struggled. The team's best performer was actually Zack Moss, who scored 18. The team's bench, in positive news, is promising, as multiple players scored over 20 points, and Bucky Irving could be Tampa's new #1 soon. Ultimately, they will hope to get back in the W column next week, as this could have just been a one-off.

Mahomes on the Range (Lancer) 127.18
Teiyo Tomozawas (MUFFINZ) 96.96

Summary:
It was a big win for Mahomes on the Range as they were led by their Baltimore Ravens' duo. Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry were fantastic, combining for for nearly 60 points- which essentially sealed the win. Green Bay's defense was also a great play, feasting off Will Levis to score 25. DK Metcalf was also strong, and Darnell Mooney could be emerging as a solid flex/WR2 play. Aside from these performers, Evan Engram, Jaylen Warren, Tony Pollard, and Josh Jacobs struggled. The concern level varies for each of these players, but if the Ravens continue to perform well, Mahomes in the Range will be in a good spot. It was a tough loss for the Tomozawas, who could not build off their momentum from last week. Tampa's rough game was a major reason for this, as Mike Evans and Rachaad White combined for under 10. Of the two, White is the most concerning, as he may be losing time to Bucky Irving. Actually, Jayden Daniels was the team's only good performer as he scored 28. Bijan Robinson was the only other double-digit performer, but he was disappointing by his standards with 12. The Tomozawas will have to hope for more consistency going forward.

Atomic Pickles (AgentP) 94.66
Wesley All Stars (Wesley) 57.68

Summary:
The Atomic Pickles improved to 2-1, but were the luckiest team of the week. Joe Burrow was superb Monday night with 25, a great sign for the Pickles. James Cook was also great, scoring 16. Drake London and Justin Jefferson also appear to be a dependable WR duo. Aside from these players, though, the rest of the lineup struggled. Rashid Shaheed somehow scored zero, Zay Flowers scored 3.8, and Zamir White scored 3.4. RB2 may be tough for the Pickles with Isiah Pacheco injured, especially with the waiver wire dry. Despite the luck, the Pickles are happy to be 2-1. It has been a brutal year for Wesley All Stars, and their season may already be finished. Their RB core of Ty Chandler and Justice Hill combined for just 7. The Hero RB strategy is always risky if you lose your RB1, and that appears to be what happened to Wesley All Stars. Anthony Richardson was also shockingly bad with just 5 points. The only good performer was Marvin Harrison, Jr., but he scored way less than last week. The All Stars are the lowest ranked team in the league, and it may be a long season for them.

MLBPPWORLD FANTASY WEEK 4 RECAP:

Team Griffith (jag123jg) 127.54
One Man Revolution (GoTwins24) 110.68

Summary:
Team Griffith won the rematch of the 2023-24 championship. They got off to a great start Thursday night, with Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, and Wan'Dale Robinson all either nearing or surpassing their projections. The game was somewhat close in the Noon window, but Team Griffith pulled away in the afternoon window. Jordan Mason has been the late-round gem of the season so far, as he made the difference by scoring 23. Travis Kelce was also better than he has been so far in 2024 with 12 points. The only disappointments for Team Griffith were Rhamondre Stevenson and Travis Etienne. Those two will need their offenses to play better for them to be better options, but if they can do so, they'll be contenders again. One Man Revolution was looking to be in good shape, but cracks are starting to show. They are now dealing with injuries to Cooper Kupp, Malik Nabers, Jonathan Taylor, and minor injuries to Diontae Johnson and Devin Singletary. But it wasn't injuries that cost them this week, it was rather their decision to play Devin Singletary over D'Andre Swift, which cost them 22 points and the game. Kyler Murrary was a pretty signficiant disappointment with 9 points. One Man Revolution seems likely to fall to 3-2, and the good vibes from a 3-0 start may soon be gone.

Detroit Phantoms (DTigers115) 150.36
Chattini FC (Glassy) 86.7

Summary:
After an unlucky 0-2 start, the Phantoms appear to be firing on all cylinders. Jordan Love's return to the lineup has been key for them, as he led the way with 28. In turn, Jayden Reed returned to his Week 1 form by scoring 23.6. Nico Collins, in part because of Tank Dell's injury, dominated with 27 points. These performances put the Phantoms in comfortable position, and Kyren Williams, Ja'Marr Chase, and James Conner were rock-solid. The main negative news was the injury to Rashee Rice. Had Rice stayed healthy, the Phantoms would have crossed the 160-point mark. This will be tough long-term, but the Phantoms should still be in good shape with Jordan Love healthy. Chattini FC lost their first game of the season due to some uncharacteristic performances. The Jets' offensive struggles sunk them, with Breece Hall and Garrett Wilson combining for a mere 6 points. Josh Allen was also shockingly bad with just 7 points. At TE, Mike Gesicki was a worse choice than starting nobody, as he actually lost his team points. Aaron Jones and Brian Robinson could not save their team from falling to 3-1. But with One Man Revolution heavily injured, they should be able to get to 4-1.

Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value (Dishnet34) 87
North Pole Narwhals (AnthonyP) 86.9

Summary:
Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value won in a thriller/Monday Night Miracle. They have their namesake, Jahmyr Gibbs, to thank, as Gibbs dropped 19.8 Monday night. This was enough to beat out the Narwhals by a half of a point. CJ Stroud was also fundamental in the win with a 23.5 point outing. Tre Tucker was also solid, surpassing expectations with a 12.5-point game. But the game was this close due to some terrible outings- mainly from Carson Steele, Rome Odunze, and Quentin Johnson. However, the team has so many injuries that just surviving this week is a positive, and they are now 2-2. The Narwhals are 0-4, but could have easily been 2-2 without some horrible luck on Monday night games. Alvin Kamara was once again the team leader with 21.4. But everyone else was a let-down. Patrick Mahomes has been poor this year, and he continued that trend by scoring just 13. Calvin Ridley, Ezekiel Elliot, and Tyler Lockett have also cooled. DJ Moore also has not had the best chemistry with Caleb Williams. If the Narwhals are going to make a miraculous turnaround, they will need to see major improvements from key contributors.

Mahomes on the Range (Lancer) 154.34
Nick's No Autopicks (PhilliesFan134) 104.22

Summary:
Mahomes on the Range improved to 3-1 and are one of the hottest teams in the league. Derrick Henry was a great pick in the first round, and he delivered a vintage 34-point performance. Lamar Jackson also benefitted from Henry and scored 23. Tony Pollard has also had a bounceback 2024 in a new situation, and he scored 17 Monday night. Also, San Francisco's defense dominated with 27 points against a terrible NE offense. Tucker Kraft also emerged as a potential sleeper at TE, scoring 14 points this week. With Derrick Henry dominating, Mahomes on the Range will be a scary team to face. Nick's No Autopicks has cooled down in the past few weeks. Their top three was strong, with Jalen Hurts, Zack Moss, and Chuba Hubbard all scoring over 15. There may be some concerns, however, with Zack Moss due to Chase Brown's emergence. However, what has hurt them the most has been Miami's sputtering offense. Tyreek Hill and De'Von Achane combined for just 10 points, which is simply not good enough given their draft position. With those two, it may be about biding their time until Tua Tagovailoa returns. The team has a couple interesting offense on the bench, which may be their best chance to bounce back.

Goddells Security Team (BaseballTeen9500) 144.1
Atomic Pickles (AgentP) 95.18

Summary:
Gooddells Security Team is bouncing back from a rough 2023 with a 3-1 start. Kenneth Walker and David Montgomery are an impressive RB core, combining for 45 this week. Also, Chris Olave and Amon-Ra St. Brown are also a solid WR duo, combining for just under 30. If they can get 70 points out of their top 4 RBs and WRs, they will put themselves in a position to win every time. Their flex position was also decent with McLaurin and Jennings combining for just under 25. At 3-1, Goodells Security Team has one of the best all-around rosters in the league and are ready to compete. The Atomic Pickles fell to 2-2 in a disappointing loss. Justin Jefferson and Joe Burrow were their only good performers, as they scored just over 15. Every other position player struggled, especially James Cook (who scored a shocking 5 points), Brock Bowers, and Zay Flowers. Zamir White was also poor with just three. If the Pickles are going to challenge for the playoffs, they will need more consistency from several key players.

Teiyo Tomozawas (MUFFINZ) 112.92
Wesley All Stars (Wesley) 108.98

Summary:
The Tomozawas won a much-needed game, although it was closer than they would have liked. Jayden Daniels has been one of the steals of the draft, and he backed up that reputation with 24 points. Mike Evans also bounced back with 19, and Ladd McConskey has been a sleeper- scoring 15 this week. Evan McPherson has also been solidly consistent, and he scored 13 this week. However, they will need more from their RBs, as none scored over 10, and Kyle Pitts completely ghosted with a goose-egg. Still, they needed to get this one even if it was close. Wesley All Stars fell to a heartbreaking 0-4 in a rough loss. Justin Fields tried to will his team to the win with 31 points, but his heroic effort fell short. Justice Hill also benefitted from garbage time to score 18. The team's RB room is certainly rough, so to lose with 18 points from Justice Hill is far from ideal. Rookies Xavier Worthy and Marvin Harrison, Jr. performed well. Worthy will also see more opportunities with Rashee Rice out. The team is desperate now at 0-4, and may need to get aggressive to secure their first win.

Best of luck in Week 5!

MLBPPWORLD FANTASY WEEK 5 RECAP

One Man Revolution (GoTwins24) 133.8
Chattini FC (Glassy) 130.34

Summary:
One Man Revolution did not expect to win this week, but they somehow pulled off a win despite a depleted roster. They were missing Saquon Barkley, Jonathan Taylor, Dallas Goedert, Malik Nabers, Devin Singletary, and Cooper Kupp. But somehow, they found a way to win with a patchwork roster. Heading into the week, they added Mark Andrews, Chase Brown, Trey Sermon, and Tyrone Tracy to their lineup. Each of them were key additions. Brown, Sermon, and Tracy each scored around 15, and Mark Andrews was the best he has been all season. Kyler Murrary was a rock with 24, including a 50-yard TD, and D'Andre Swift was great for a second straight week. It's been a wild start to the season for One Man Revolution, and they look to continue their recent run of success. It was a tough loss for Chattini, who can chalk up the loss to the Sunday morning game. Aaron Jones left the game injured, and Breece Hall was poor for the second straight week. Had Jones been healthy, they almost certainly would have won. They were still some positives, with Garrett Wilson and Tee Higgins each scoring over 20. Both have struggled so far this year, so this was a positive sign for Chattini. Also, Josh Allen was below his usual standard, scoring just 14. Chattini will need Allen to get going, but a trade for a WR1 could be beneficial for him. Despite the unexpected loss, Chattini is still in a decent spot.

Detroit Phantoms (DTigers115) 134.76
Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value (Dishnet34) 86.64

Summary:
After some rough losses to begin the year, the Phantoms now appear to be one of the league's best. Ja'Marr Chase delivered a vintage dominant performance with a 36-point showing. With 36 points from your WR1, it's going to be difficult to lose. Their RB pairing of Kyren Williams and James Conner also performed well, combining for 28. Jordan Love's return from injury has certainly helped the Phantoms, as he delivered a solid 15, which also helps out Jayden Reed at Flex. It wasn't all great news for the Phantoms, as Nico Collins left the game with an injury. Collins will miss some time, so the Phantoms will be short-handed, but they could do some maneuvering at flex with Rico Dowdle looking decent. Despite the loss of Collins, the Phantoms are rolling into Week 6. For Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value, it was a difficult loss as it was not the most competitive. Brian Thomas shined as the team's leading scorer with a 20-point showing. Aside from Thomas, though, the rest of the team (outside of Stroud) struggled. Tank Dell should see his opportunities increase, but he was muted this week. The team was in a rough spot with injuries to AJ Brown and Joe Mixon, and Jahmyr Gibbs on a bye week. They will need them back to return to competitiveness.

Team Griffith (jag123jg) 125.48
North Pole Narwhals (AnthonyP) 124.14

Summary:
It was a thrilling victory for Team Griffith, who improved to 3-2 by just a tad. Minnesota's defense was a great play, as they gave the team a 20-point outing Sunday morning. Kareem Hunt was also a smart flex play as he scored 18. It was a bold move to play him over Rhamondre Stevenson, but it ended up being a push as they matched each other's point totals. Aside from Hunt and Minnesota's defense, everyone else was pretty much average, but that was all Team Griffith needed to be in a position to win. More importantly, no one was downright terrible, as Jordan Mason was the team's lowest scorer. With the win, Team Griffith is in a solid position to target a three-peat past the bye. The Narwhals lost another heartbreaker. They have to be one of the toughest luck 0-5 teams in history, as they could easily be 3-2 right now. DJ Moore was their standout, and Austin Ekeler, Christian Kirk, and George Kittle were each different. Ultimately, Patrick Mahomes has been the guy hurting the Narwhals the most, as he has not justified his draft position. Alvin Kamara has also been a let-down since his Week 2 dominance. With these players struggling, the Narwhals have gotten their hearts broken.

Atomic Pickles (AgentP) 161.38
Nick's No Autopicks (PhilliesFan134) 68.76

Summary:
The Atomic Pickles were last year's best regular season team, and they appear to be putting up a challenge for that title once again. They were dominant this week, scoring over 160. Joe Burrow was their best performer with a remarkable 33 points. Drake London set the tone Thursday night with a 27-point showing, and the rest of the team followed his lead. Not a single position player scored under 10 points. Brock Bowers neared 20 with a big touchdown. James Cook and Cam Akers also improved after disappointing weeks, and Rashid Shaheed and JSN were strong at flex. With the win, the Pickles seemed prime for a hot stretch. For Nick's No Autopicks, it's been a rough last couple of weeks. Their week got off to a brutal start with Sam Darnold's 4-point showing. Darnold may be regressing after his strong start, but that's not of major consequence for his team with Jalen Hurts returning from bye. But injuries to De'Von Achane and Zack Moss will put the team in a rough spot, but they will need Jameson Williams and Bucky Irving to step up. Ultimately, Tua Tagovailoa's injury has them in a rough spot, as they have multiple shares of the Dolphins' offense. They will need to quickly turn things around.

Wesley All Stars (Wesley) 88.34
Mahomes on the Range (Lancer) 153.52

Summary:
Mahomes on the Range has recently caught fire, mostly due to Green Bay's offensive resurgence. Darnell Mooney and Tucker Kraft were the unsung heroes of the week, combining for nearly 50 points. Derrick Henry and Lamar Jackson were also spectacular in Baltimore's electric offensive showing, combining for nearly 50. These 4 alone would have won the game for their team. But Josh Jacobs was also great, which offset clunkers from Emanuel Wilson and DK Metcalf. With Tony Pollard returning from bye next week, Mahomes on the Range could be primed to be the best team in the league. It has been a disaster of a season for Wesley All Stars, who have been cursed ever since Christian McCaffrey's injury woes. Their RB core is dreadful, with Justice Hill and Jaleel McLaughlin combining for just 13. They do have some interesting pieces at WR, but Marvin Harrison, Jr. and Xaiver Legette ghosted this week. Xavier Worthy was also not as good as expected in Rashee Rice's absence. As it stands, Wesley All Stars are more than likely already eliminated from the playoffs, and will have to focus on playing spoiler.

Teiyo Tomozawas (MUFFINZ) 108.02
Goodells Security Team (BaseballTeen9500) 57.76

Summary:
The Tomozawas won with some matchup luck, but they will be happy to be 3-2. Mike Evans appears to be returning to form, scoring 20 this week. Jayden Daniels has also been one of the surprises of the season, and he continued that this week with 19. Kyle Pitts, and surprisingly, Allen Lazard were also solid options in the passing game. Injuries and bye weeks hurt them this week, as Davante Adams' trade situation will need to be resolved for them to truly be consistent. But it is hard to complain about a 3-2 record, even with multiple teams in the same position. It was a shockingly bad outing from Goodells Security Team, who were hurt by the Lions' and Titans' bye week. Without Montgomery and St. Brown, they were lifeless, and could barely muster more than 50. Braelon Allen disappointed as a replacement and was released. The biggest shocker was Chris Olave, who scored just 2 points. Noah Fant was also poor and released as well. Jauan Jennings ghosted after a string of decent games. The team will hope this is a one-off and that they will return to form when Montgomery, St. Brown, and Hopkins return.

MLBPPWORLD FANTASY WEEK 6 RECAP

One Man Revolution (GoTwins24) 138.16
Wesley All Stars (Wesley) 74.4

Summary:
One Man Revolution keeps rolling despite their injury woes. Chris Godwin, their 2019 championship legend, propelled them this week with 30 points. Tyrone Tracy and Chase Brown have also been good pickups, combining for over 30 points once again this week. D'Andre Swift has also been a massive boost for the team, continuing his good play with 20 this week. These backs offset struggles from Saquon Barkley and Kyler Murray. If the team can get healthy, they will be continue to be a tough team to beat. It's been a rough season for Wesley All Stars, who fell to a terrible 0-6. They only have two healthy running-backs, but both have been extremely poor. They combined for under 4 points this week. Marvin Harrison, Jr. was also a stunning no-show with zero points due to a concussion. Justin Fields was the only one who showed up with a 23-pointer. The team is virtually eliminated from playoff contention, and are just looking to get a win at this point.

Nick's No Autopicks (PhilliesFan134) 124.86
Detroit Phantoms (DTigers115) 110.72

Summary:
It was a good bounce-back win for Nick's No Autopicks after a poor showing last time. It was good for them to get Jalen Hurts back in the lineup, as he scored 21. Chuba Hubbard and Bucky Irving were also a low-key solid RB duo with 30 combined points. However, the emergence of Sean Tucker and Jonathan Brooks' looming return could cap their upside. They will probably need De'Von Achane to return to health after Miami's bye. Jameson Williams and Deebo Samuel were also strong. They now have an interesting dynamic with both Buffalo pass-catchers in Amari Cooper and Dalton Kincaid. At 3-3, it was a crucial win after a poor game last week. The Phantoms cooled after a strong last three weeks. Jordan Love was sharp, scoring 25. Josh Downs was also a good play with 16. However, RB killed them as James Conner and Rico Dowdle combined for just 12. Kyren Williams' bye week may have been the difference in this one. But Nico Collins and Rashee Rice's injuries will be storylines to monitor, as they could possibly cap the Phantoms' upside.

Teiyo Tomozawas (MUFFINZ) 129.56
Team Griffith (jag123jg) 72.72

Summary:
The Tomozawas could be in great position to return to the postseason, avenging their 2022-23 championship loss in a big way. Jayden Daniels has been one of the value picks of the season, and Bijan Robinson could finally be waking up. Both of them scored over 20. JK Dobbins was also great, and Allen Lazard was a pleasant surprise with his Hail Mary catch. They also got a major boost with Davante Adams being traded to the Jets, reuniting him with Aaron Rodgers and making him a more viable option. If Mike Evans can be a more consistent option, they will be in great shape. It was a shocking game from Team Griffith, who scored only 72. This was in big part due to Dallas' strugges, as Prescott and Lamb combined for just 15. It was also a shocker Sunday morning from Travis Etienne, who scored less than zero points. Stefon Diggs was their only player who played well. With Etienne and now Jordan Mason hurt, it could be difficult for them going forward, but they should have Nick Chubb returning next week to potentially minimize that.

Goodells Security Team (BBallTeen9500) 149.4
North Pole Narwhals (AnthonyP) 108.6

Summary:
Goodells Security Team bounced back in a big way, scoring nearly 100 points more this week than they did last week. This was even with less than zero points from Chris Olave. They benefitted from Detroit's big win, as David Montgomery and Amon-Ra St. Brown combined for over 30. Cole Kmet was also the NFC offensive player of the week with over 20 points (including an appearance as a long snapper). Brock Purdy had his performance of the year, and Kenneth Walker and Terry McLaurin were rock solid. Goodells Security Team could be rolling if they keep this up. The Narwhals are one of the unluckiest winless teams ever, as things have just not gone their way this year. Somehow, DJ Moore scored just 4 after looking strong in earlier weeks. Najee Harris looked better, but Alvin Kamara has not been able to repeat his Week 2 dominant performance. George Kittle was strong with 20, but Brock Purdy minimized his impact from the other side. With the playoffs most likely out of reach, the Narwhals are just looking for a win.

Chattini FC (Glassy) 152.3
Mahomes on the Range (Lancer) 123.62

Summary:
Chattini FC won the game of the week in an absolute shootout. Monday night was great for them, as they won in convincing fashion thanks to 60 combined points from Josh Allen, Garrett Wilson, and Breece Hall. However, the Jets' acquisition of Davante Adams may have spolied the vibes around their Jets' duo, but that remains to be seen. Courtland Sutton, Tre McBride, Tee Higgins, and DeVonta Smith were all solid, serving as complimentary pieces. The only one who struggled was Antonio Gibson, but he was a late fill-in for Brian Robinson and Aaron Jones. If Jones and Robinson return to health so, Chattini may have no problem making the playoffs. It was a tough one for Mahomes on the Range, who would have beaten many teams this week. Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry were as good as ever, combining for 43. Keenan Allen also had his best game with 18.6, and Tony Pollard was good again with 16. But aside from these players, no one else really stepped up. Tucker Kraft dropped off after his Week 5 heroics, and DK Metcalf and Darnell Mooney struggled. Overall, though, there aren't many long-lasting concerns for Mahomes on the Range- it was just a tough loss.

Atomic Pickles (AgentP) 113.72
Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value (Dishnet34) 100.98

Summary:
It was a narrow victory for the Pickles, but a victory nonetheless. Ray Davis was one of the pickups of the season so far, scoring 16 and making the difference in the win. Joe Burrow was also solid (not as good as in Week 5 but solid). Zay Flowers was great, although he cooled down in the second half, and Drake London and Brock Bowers were as good as ever. Injuries to James Cook and Tyjae Spears were why the game was as close as it was, but winning without Pacheco and Jefferson is quite impressive for the Pickles, who now occupy the fourth playoff spot. It was a heartbreaking loss for Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value, as they forgot to start Joe Mixon which cost them 25 points and the win. Brian Thomas fell off after his recent hot stretch, and Jake Ferguson did nothing against Detroit. More positively, Tank Dell and AJ Brown looked good. If the team can get Mixon back in the lineup, they should be able to win more, but the mistake may cost them in a league that can be unforgiving at times.

Best of luck in Week 7!

MLBPPWORLD FANTASY WEEK 7 RECAP

One Man Revolution (GoTwins24) 125.3
Nick's No Autopicks (PhilliesFan134) 71.36

Summary:
One Man Revolution improved to 6-1, although the ending was tough. Chris Godwin suffered a likely season-ending injury late Monday night, which put an abrupt end to a great season for him. One Man Revolution was so close to being fully healthy, with Cooper Kupp, Jonathan Taylor, and Jaylen Waddle (via Tua Tagovailoa's return) returning to health. Still, they will take the 6-1 start, their best start since 2017. Saquon Barkley was dominant with 25, and their special teams combined for 32. Mark Andrews has also been better as of late, scoring 18. There were some letdowns- mainly Diontae Johnson and Tyrone Tracy, but it was a solid win overall. Nick's No Autopicks have struggled to find consistency this year, and it was another rough week for them. Tyreek Hill, Deebo Samuel, Jameson Williams, and Juju Smith-Schuster were each terrible, combining for a shockingly bad one point. This handicapped their upside, especially when New York's defense lost them five points. Jalen Hurts and Cate Otton were good, but not good enough to give them a win. They will need to find some consistency to make a playoff push.

Team Griffith (jag123jg) 102.92
Wesley All Stars (Wesley) 50.46

Summary:
Team Griffith won to improve to 4-3, but suffered a major loss along the way. The Team Griffith trade curse continues, as Brandon Aiyuk will now miss the remainder of the season with a torn ACL and MCL. This will be a tough loss for Team Griffith, but they do have some depth options available. Javonte Williams and Kareem Hunt were a strong unconventional RB pair, combining for just about 50 points. This was basically enough to win the game, and everything us was a plus. CeeDee Lamb and Dak Prescott were on bye, but Team Griffith was still able to win comfortably. Still, Aiyuk's loss will be tough to overcome. Wesley All Stars upgraded their RB core, but ironically Justice Hill was the best he has been this season. They started Travis Etienne, but he did not play this week, so they only got 3.5 points from their starters. They have also been hurt by Anthony Richardson and Marvin Harrison, Jr.'s struggles. It's been a year to forget for Wesley All Stars, who are now all but guaranteed to miss the playoffs.

North Pole Narwhals (AnthonyP) 82.08
Teiyo Tomozawas (MUFFINZ) 103.84

Summary:
The Tomoazawas improved to 5-2 with a nice win, although they benefitted from some matchup luck. Rachaad White was huge for them Monday night, dropping 26 points in his best game of the season. Bijan Robinson was also excellent with over 20. Injuries have been bothering them all season, and that continued this week. Both Mike Evans and Jayden Daniels left early with injuries. Had they played full games, the Tomozawas could have pushed for the 115+ point mark. It will be interesting to see how they can replace him, but with 5 wins, they do have a little bit of leeway. It's been a brutal season for the Narwhals, who have lost each of their first seven games. Alvin Kamara and Patrick Mahomes have cost them this season, and they combined for 17. Mahomes would have been a better play than starter Kirk Cousins, unfortunately. Aside from kicker Cameron Dicker, Najee Harris was their best scorer. Ultimately, their key players have not stepped up, which has doomed them to 0-7.

Chattini FC (Glassy) 134.02
Goodells Security Team (BaseballTeen9500) 109.78

Summary:
Chattini FC continued their role with a comfortable win. Josh Allen bounced back which was a good sign. Also, Aaron Jones returned to score just under 20, and the NYJ duo of Garrett Wilson and Breece Hall appear to have found their form and seem to be good for 30+ point combined floors. Tee Higgins was good too with 16. DeVonta Smith was the only major letdown with a poor less than one point. Still, they are in good shape at 5-2. Goodells Security Team lost a tough one to fall to 4-3. They will have their flex position to blame, as Jerry Jeudy and DeAndre Hopkins combined for under 3. With Hopkins in KC, though, their flex position could be in better shape. Brock Purdy, Amon-Ra St. Brown, and even Hunter Henry were good, but David Montgomery's struggles cost them. This was a tough loss for Security Team, but it was always going to be tough to win.

Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value (Dishnet34) 135.24
Mahomes on the Range (Lancer) 122.34

Summary:
Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value got a much needed win on the backs of their RBs. Jahmyr Gibbs and Joe Mixon combined for a stellar 55 points. Also, AJ Brown and Brian Thomas were solid with over 15. This was enough to offset struggles from CJ Stroud, Tank Dell, and Tre Tucker. Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value suffered from injuries early, but with Brown and Mixon back and Jahmyr Gibbs playing well, they could go on a run and reverse their 2023 form. It was a tough luck loss for Mahomes on the Range. Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry are quite easily the best QB-RB duo in the league, as they combined for just under 60. Josh Jacobs and DK Metcalf were also solid, but they fell short thanks to struggles from Mooney, Engram, and Watson. Still, there aren't many takeaways as Mahomes on the Range is still a dangerously good team.

Atomic Pickles (AgentP) 111.74
Detroit Phantoms (DTigers115) 91.9

Summary:
It was the Tank Bigsby show for the Pickles, as he led the team with 23 points. The question now is whether he can deliver similar performances with Etienne in the picture. But it wasn't just Bigsby, as Justin Jefferson, Drake London, and Brock Bowers each looked sharp. The only let-downs were Zay Flowers and JSN, but for Flowers this could have just been a one-off in a blow-out. The Pickles have a huge matchup with 6-1 One Man Reovlution next week. The Phantoms lost a tough one to fall to 3-4. The top half of the lineup was excellent, with Love, Williams, Conner, and Chase scoring over 15. But the rest of the lineup struggled heavily. Sam LaPorta was a whiff it seems, as he scored just 3. Downs and Douglas struggled at flex with under 5, which put the Phantoms in an insurmountable rut. They will need to probably win their next two to feel okay about their chances.

MLBPPWORLD FANTASY WEEK 8 RECAP

One Man Revolution (GoTwins24) 126.68
Atomic Pickles (AgentP) 112.36

Summary:
One Man Revolution continues to roll, as they have won their fourth straight game and are off to their best start since 2017. It was a strong team effort for them, as they once again surpassed the 125-point mark. Kyler Murray was their leader with 22. Jonathan Taylor was strong in his return, and D'Andre Swift scored a 56-yard touchdown that turned out to be the difference in the game. Cooper Kupp was also decent in his return with 13. Jaylen Waddle also returned to fantasy relevance with Tua Tagovailoa returning, but he was still a bit underwhelming with 6.5. Malik Nabers was also a bit subpar with 10, and there could be concerns with his production in a weak offense. Still, One Man Revolution has to be happy with matching their win total from each of the last two seasons in just Week 8. The Atomic Pickles narrowly lost, but are still in a good spot at 5-3. James Cook brought them into the game with 26.8, but it ultimately was not enough to win. Zay Flowers also came on late in the second half of the game, and Justin Jefferson started off strong. However, Joe Burrow was underwhelming, and Brock Bowers and Drake London failed to score more than ten. Tank Bigsby also scored under 10, but that was likely due to a tough matchup against Green Bay. Overall, there's not much to say other than that the Pickles are still in a solid position.

Nick's No Autopicks (PhilliesFan134) 137.34
Team Griffith (jag123jg) 104.38

Summary:
It was a must-win game for Nick's No Autopicks after a rough Week 7, and they answered the call. Jalen Hurts set the tone with an incredible 35-point showing. Hurts showcased his rushing TD upside in this one, which makes him a lock for QB1 status. Cade Otton was also great with 25, and he may be the TE1 in Chris Godwin and Mike Evans' absence. Additionally, De'Von Achane returned to relevance with Tua back in the mix, and Tyreek Hill did better than he has been doing, although he did only score 10. Their flexes were the only real disappointments, but they had more than enough leeway to overcome this. If Nick's No Autopicks can finally find some consistency, they can be a playoff threat, and they have a real chance to do so with Tua healthy in Miami. It was a tough loss for the defending champion, who now sees a return to playoffs in jeopardy. CeeDee Lamb did all he could by scoring 33, but it was not enough to make it a game. Travis Kelce was also better than usual this year with 20, which is a good sign for Team Griffith. But their RBs really struggled this week, and Jordan Mason is now injured. However, they do have some promising options off the bench in Cedric Tillman, Rhamondre Stevenson, and Michael Pittman, and they will hope these players can lead them back to the playoffs.

Wesley All Stars (Wesley) 105.7
North Pole Narwhals (AnthonyP) 114.26

Summary:
In a matchup of winless teams, the Narwhals finally won their first game of 2024. Tua Tagovailoa and Puka Nacua returned to the fold, which immediately strengthened their lineup. Both scored 14. Alvin Kamara and Najee Harris were decent with 15 each, but George Kittle stole the show on National TE Day with 21 points. Calvin Ridley was also great, scoring 17 thanks to a historical first quarter. There were some weak spots, mainly DJ Moore and Tyler Lockett that cost them some upside, but they still won with relative breathing room. It was a brutal loss for Wesley All Stars, who are now desperately seeking their first win. Their RB2 spot has killed them all year, and that continued this week with Justice Hill scoring just 2 points. They acquired Alexander Mattison, who they hope will help solve these RB2 woes. In better news, Marvin Harrison, Jr. was much improved this week, and David Njoku will likely be a TE1 with Deshaun Watson gone. But Michael Pittman cost them a potential win, and they responded by trading him to Team Griffith. At 0-8 and a tough upcoming schedule, Wesley All Stars may have missed their best chance to win a game this year, but there are still five games left.

Teiyo Tomozawas (MUFFINZ) 166.34
Chattini FC (Glassy) 128.14

Summary:
Teiyo Tomozawas continue to roll, and they received some major breakout performances this week. Ladd McConksey was the biggest one with 26 points. Kyle Pitts was also a national TE Day surprise with 23, and his teammate Bijan Robinson also scored 20. Jayden Daniels was a surprise active, and he was as good as he's been all season with 22 points. The only significant disappointment was Davante Adams, as he is still trying to find his footing in New York. At 6-2, the Tomozawas are highly likely to make their third playoff appearance. It was a tough luck loss for Chattini FC, who would have beaten several other teams last week. It was a solid effort all around, as several players neared the 15-20 point range, including Josh Allen, Garrett Wilson, Trey McBride, and DeVonta Smith. However, not having anyone go over 20 cost them. Brian Robinson, Breece Hall, and Aaron Jones also could have been a bit better. But still, they are in decent shape at 5-3.

Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value (Dishnet34) 125.7
Goodells Security Team (Baseballteen9500) 118.22

Summary:
Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value may boast the best RB pairing in the league with Joe Mixon and Jahmyr Gibbs. This week, they combined for 40 points, which put them in a strong position. It turned out that getting healthy may have been just what they needed to make a midseason push. They could have done a bit better, but 125 was all they needed. AJ Brown, Jake Ferguson, and Rome Odunze were a bit underwhelming, but they did just enough to win it. At 4-4, it's been an almost reverse-course from last year as the team seems to be coming on late. It was a tough loss for Goodells Security Team, who lost by less than 10. Brock Purdy did all he could to make it close with 26 Sunday night, but it was not enough. Amon-Ra St. Brown was probably the biggest disappointment, as he somehow scored just 7 points in a weird win for Detroit. David Montgomery and Kenny Walker underwhelmed a bit, combining for just 20. Starting 2 TEs is usually rough, and Cole Kmet did not get featured enough to be a valuable flex. At 4-4, Goodells Security Team is suddenly in a tough spot.

Mahomes on the Range (Lancer) 136.26
Detroit Phantoms (DTigers115) 115.14

Summary:
When the Packers do well, so does Mahomes on the Range. That was the case this week as Tucker Kraft and Josh Jacobs combined for 40. Their Ravens' duo of Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry was also strong despite Baltimore's loss with a combined 38. Somehow Tony Pollard was good despite a blowout loss with 14. Darnell Mooney has arguably been the pickup of the season, as he scored 16 points. The only let-down was Keenan Allen thanks to a 4-point game, but they had more than enough cushion. The Phantoms fell to a tough 3-5 despite a decent showing. Jordan Love's injury cost them as Love only scored 5. This also may have affected Jayden Reed, who also finished with just above 5. This offset strong games from Kyren Williams and James Conner, who combined for 33. Ja'Marr Chase was also decent, and Raheem Mostert was a pleasant surprise. Ultimately, though, it was not enough for them to win. At 3-5, they may need to win out to make the playoffs, so they are at risk of missing the playoffs for the fifth straight year.

MLBPPWORLD FANTASY WEEK 9 RECAP

One Man Revolution (GoTwins24) 114.86
Mahomes on the Range (Lancer) 118.6

Summary:
Despite not switching out DK Metcalf, it was still a narrow victory for Mahomes on the Range. This was largely due to a great Noon window with Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry combining for 50 points, and Darnell Mooney and Tony Pollard combining for 30. Josh Jacobs was also decent in the afternoon window, which set them up for the win. It was a shocking loss for One Man Revolution, who needed just 12 points from Jonathan Taylor and Will Reichard Sunday night, but could not get it. Taylor and Reichard combined for a miserable 8. Saquon Barkley did all he could with 31, but he could not offset disappointing days from Kyler Murray, Jonathan Taylor, D'Andre Swift, and Mark Andrews. One Man Revolution will hope that their cushion holds.

North Pole Narwhals (AnthonyP) 99.78
Nick's No Autopicks (PhilliesFan134) 162.6

Summary:
Nick's No Autopicks appear to be finding some long-sought consistency with their second big win in a row. Miami's offensive improvement has benefitted them, as De'Von Achane and Tyreek Hill combined for 38. DeAndre Hopkins was also spectacular with 24, and Cade Otton excelled with 17. To top it off, Jalen Hurts appears to be returning to 2022-early 2023 form, which could make Nick's No Autopicks lethal. They are still outside of a playoff spot, but that can change. The Narwhals were unable to win a second game in a mediocre performance. Alvin Kamara, Kirk Cousins, and Austin Ekeler were strong, but the rest of the team floundered. Puka Nacua was ejected early, DJ Moore continued to struggle, and Tyler Conklin was non-existent. They will now be looking to 2025 at this point.

Chattini FC (Glassy) 138.08
Wesley All Stars (Wesley) 54.9

Summary:
Chattini keeps on winning, as they won by nearly 100 points. Garrett Wilson led the way with 25 points, silencing fears related to his early season struggles. Courtland Sutton was a surprise strong performer with just under 20, and DeVonta Smith caught a big touchdown to finish with 16. They were a bit weak at RB with Roschon Johnson, Aaron Jones, and Breece Hall struggling, but they had some injury woes, and it also will not matter as much if their WRs can perform well. Overall, Chattini is in strong position to make the playoffs. For Wesley All Stars, there is not much to say other than this season has been a disaster. They are still searching for their first win. It has truly been a Murphy's Law year for them, as their RBs combined for just 5 points. Somehow, Xavier Worthy lost them a point. The only silver lining is that Christian McCaffrey is slated to return soon, and he can singlehandedly win games. But time is running out.

Teiyo Tomozawas (MUFFINZ) 124.66
Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value (Dishnet34) 101.14

Summary:
Teiyo Tomozawas is the hottest team in the league as they have now won 6 in a row. JK Dobbins has been one of the steals of the draft, as he led the team in scoring with 23.5. Jayden Daniels and Bijan Robinson were also strong, finishing with just under 20. Davante Adams seems to be accomodating well to the Jets, as he scored 18.5. The only real letdown was Kyle Pitts, whose inconsistency has been maddening ever since his debut in 2021. The Tomozawas have a good chance to make the postseason, and could even be fighting for the top seed. Jahmyr Gibbs' Positional Value looked to be heating up, but they cooled down a bit this week. No one was necessarily terrible, but no one was necessarily good enough either. Joe Mixon and Tank Dell led the team in scoring, but they only combined for just over 31. Jahmyr Gibbs was also decent with 14. AJ Brown was injured, costing them a higher point total, and Brian Thomas struggled. AJ Brown's injury will be something to watch going forward, but as of now they will be in a rough spot two games out of the playoffs.

Goodells Security Team (BaseballTeen9500) 97.1
Detroit Phantoms (DTigers115) 88.32

Summary:
Goodells Security Team won a key matchup to stay in the playoff race, although there were some concerning trends. No one was really great, but most were passable. Amon-Ra St. Brown and Terry McLaurin scored 15 each, which was key in solidifying the win. Although he turned the ball over multiple times, Jameis Winston scored 10. Kenneth Walker was okay with 12. The only major letdown was Chris Olave due to a major concussion, but his injury and subsequent drop has Goodells Security Team in a rough spot depth-wise. Still, they are above .500 at 5-4. The Phantoms' season may have ended with their loss this week. Matthew Stafford was their best performer with 17, but the rest struggled. Kyren Williams could have been better as he only scored 10. James Conner and Jayden Reed were good with 13 each, and Conner arguably could have scored more. Sam LaPorta has been a fantasy bust in 2024, and he is killing the Phantoms week-after-week. This week, he scored only 3. Jalen Coker was also a poor fill-in with just 4. Now, it appears the Phantoms are unlikely to make the postseason, standing at 3-6 with many teams to jump.

Team Griffith (jag123jg) 109.12
Atomic Pickles (AgentP) 170.22

Summary:
It was a resounding victory for the Pickles, who seem primed for a postseason return. Joe Burrow has been an MVP-type player this year, and he scored nearly 30 this week. Justin Jefferson was strong as well. But the real stand-outs were Zay Flowers and Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who combined for an incredible 60 points. If they can perform at this level each time, the Pickles may have the best flex spot in the league. The Chargers' defense was also a good play with 20. This offset a weak day for them at RB, with James Cook and Tank Bigsby combining for 11. While they are still in a heated playoff race, the Pickles can likely feel good about where they are at. The defending champion may miss out on a chance to three-peat after falling to 4-5. Their KC duo of Kareem Hunt and Travis Kelce were decent, but not good enough to swing the game. Dak Prescott was injured early, capping their potential. At RB, Rhamondre Stevenson was strong, but Nick Chubb floundered in a poor matchup to score just 4. There was not much they could have done to win, but their chances to return to the playoffs took a huge hit.
