Month: October 2022

Going into Sunday night’s final game, CarlP already had 536 points for the week, with Kim right behind him with 522. How’s that for being scary???

Carl‘s team was led by Burrow, Smith, Ekeler, Jacobs, Walker, Benjamin, Adams, Smith-Schuster, Kelce and Myers.

Kim’s Week 7 lineup featured Burrow, Smith, Chubb, Jacobs, Walker, Benjamin, Chase, Hopkins and Tucker.

Honorable mention to Kerry, who posted a 516, but finishes just outside the money spots, with a lineup of Mahomes, G. Smith, Ekeler, Jacobs, Walker, Mostert, M. Williams, Hopkins, Kelce, Myers and the Cowboys D.

This is CarlP’s first weekly win since Week 13 of the 2018 season, and Kim‘s second payday of 2022. Congrats to CarlP and Kim on their monstrous strong showings in Week 7.

This week marked the first time an owner scored 500+ points since Eric posted a 529 in Week 8 of the 2018 campaign. The all-time highest score ever recorded in this league was 594 set by former owner Roger, back in 2007.
