Year in Review: The Top 5 Regular Season LWNN Games of 2018 - #3

3. Mooseknuckles def. 15’s 138-122 (Wk 11)
Week 11 makes a second straight appearance, but with the Monday Night air war that was Chiefs-Rams it is no surprise. While Coaches Tad and Trey were battling up the stairs from the basement, Coaches Sayer and Jordon were on the roof of the house in a fight for the top of the Left Side. The Knucks had a sizeable lead heading into the weeks finale, and with Tyreek and Gurley the Based Todd still to play it looked like a sure W. TG3 mustering only 8 points left the door open though and back to back Mahomes to Kelce TDs cut the lead to single digits going into the 4th. Another 24 points from Woods and Greg the Leg made it interesting, but the Knucks were able to hold on and tie the division lead up at 6-5. This 260 point firework show set up for a division battle over the last 2 weeks, resulting in Coach Carney working hard to obtain his always ultimate goal - 2nd.

2019 LWNN Power Rankings - Week 2

Image
This was a crapfest, let’s be honest. After Week 1 brought us Monday Night madness and Game of the Year candidates, Week 2 followed up with blowouts and ratings duds. The week was not without impact however, as the undefeateds and only-defeateds were both cut in half, leaving 2 2-0’s and 2 0-2’s. Let’s see if the media is buying or selling hype after a pair of weeks. 8. Johnny Cool Guys (-3) LWNN Gameday was in the house, but the Cool Guys apparently were not. As far as regular season games go, the Johnnys have now lost 6 straight going back to last year (9 including POS game) and are winless since Week 9 of last season. The Cool Guys now have to regroup and face the other 0-2 squad. All of a sudden, this is desperation time. We know Johnny values team discipline, but he won’t want to bench AB for this one. Next: vs Knuckles 7. MFF Sixteens (- -) The Sixteens lost 5 games in route to a 2018 League With No Name Championship in 2018, when they won the League With No Name Champio...

LWNN Power Rankings - Week 1

Image
Week 1 of the 2019 season has come and gone. There were surprises all around, and the return to our classic division openers returned some quality ratings. 3 of the 4 wins involved comebacks and lead changes on Monday Night, showing once again that Commissioner Walton is a savvy schedule maker and business guru. Now that Week 2 is just 2 days away, it’s time for the first updated power rankings of the season! Take them all as fact! Reminder of the preseason rankings: 1. Tad 2. Trey 3. Hunter 4. Tanner 5. Sayer 6. Andrew 7. Dillon 8. Donald 8. Phat Cats (-1) The Cats actually had a pretty solid showing, reaching triple digits on the scoreboard and posting a top 5 scoring week in the League. Over half of that came from 2018 League With No Name Champion Dalvin Cook (23pts) and Dak Prescott (33). Unfortunately for the Cats, the rest of the skill players either crapped out or died. A decent outing for week 1, but until everyone else starts contributing, #DaksOut...

2. Bend it Like Beckham def. 15’s 100-97 (Wk 3) More proof that the 2018 15’s could only be beaten with ties on the road, or spectacular performances. Realistically, this game should’ve been a blowout in favor of the eventual champs, but Coach Tanner had some magic up his sleeve in week 3. Despite having a ragtag lineup that included LatMur filling in for the already injured 2nd round pick Dalvin Cook, Gio Bernard covering for Joe Mixon, and Marvin Jones being forced to start, MFF was in decent position to get a win and push to 2-1 on the season. However, an already struggling Zeke fumbled at the 25 yard line in the 4th quarter on what looked to be a possible touchdown run, and the door was left open for Drew Brees and co. to steal a game. Brees dove across the endzone in Atlanta to tie the game with 1:15 to go, forcing an overtime period in which he and Michael Thomas would put up another 10 fantasy points, including ANOTHER Drew Brees touchdown, as he selfishly scored on a 1st dow...
