Burrow Buried Everybody: Week 8 Is Oren's Fucking World
oren dropped 179.88 and 13 TDs, Spencer dropped a 95.72 turd, and Max keeps setting the all-time standard for mediocrity.
Spencer put up 95.72 points, dead last in a 12-team league and a full 33.7 below the 129.43 league average. He started Tyler Loop (2.6) like a man who'd never seen a football game, then left 15.92 points rotting on the bench. He lost to Zach by 30.78, and Zach's QB Lamar Jackson scored a flat zero. Spencer got boat-raced by a team with a goose egg at quarterback. That's 2-6, a 3-game skid, and 0% playoff odds. Two-time champ, now a fucking crime scene.
๐ Weekly awards
oren posted a league-best 179.88, nearly 50 over the league average. Joe Burrow went nuclear for 39.48 and Ja'Marr Chase added 31.1. Disgusting. Pull the plug on the rest of us.
Lewis scored just 123.9, only 8th best this week, and still beat Max for an upset. Zay Flowers gave him a donut and it didn't matter. Fall-ass-backwards into a W3 streak.
Coby dropped 136.58, 4th best on the week, and still lost to oren. That score beats the league average by 7 and gets you nothing. Sit down, 2-6.
jonah benched Tyler Allgeier (36.1) and started Jeremiyah Love (2.3). That's a 33.8-point swing straight into the toilet. He won anyway, so the fantasy gods are clearly drunk.
jonah edged evan 131.76โ121.06, a 10.7-point margin. Not exactly a nail-biter, but it's the closest game we had. Slow week for drama. Evan started Tre Tucker (0) over DeMario Douglas (16.6) and lost by exactly the margin he'd have covered.
Ethan hung 149.38 on dylan's 102.80 for a 46.58-point beatdown. Dylan started Chris Godwin Jr., who scored 0.0. Fuck.

๐ธ The Wire
No trades this week. Every one of you pussies is too scared to make a deal.
- Max was the busiest manager with 16 moves, including a bid of 5 on Antonio Williams. Sixteen moves and he's still 3-5 on a 4-game skid. All that activity, zero results.
- dylan bid 2 on kicker Chase McLaughlin. Dude's 2-6 and his big move was a kicker. Rearranging deck chairs.
