Just in time for Halloween, rookie owner CraigW scared up a monster lineup led by Watson, Cook, Coleman, L. Murray, Kupp, Diggs, Chark, Kelce, Gonzalez and the Patriots D . That was good enough for a 495 the highest score so far this season, but barely enough to win this week.

I took second, with a team featuring Wilson, Cousins, Cook, A. Jones, Coleman, Murray, Hopkins, Diggs, Kelce, Gonzalez and the Steelers D.

This is CraigW’s first weekly win ever, and my first payday since the 2018 campaign. . Congrats to CraigW on the strong showing this week.

Honorable mention goes to a total of nine owners who topped 400 points in Week 8.

The Leader Board:

Week 8 leader board features our two former league champs TroyA and Kerry still sitting one-two. I climb to third, while the father/son tandem of Tommy and CraigW site fourth and fifth, and Jack moves up into sixth place.

TroyA	1833
Kerry	1812
JohnK	1800
Tommy	1792
CraigW	1762

Trent, SteveB, Eric and Major, round out the Top 10. The top four spots are separated by a mere 41 points.

Week 9 starts Thursday: 
San Francisco at Arizona

Week 9 Byes:   Atlanta, New Orleans, LA Rams, Cincinnati

Good luck to all in Week 9.

Veteran owner Eric successfully navigated the pitfalls of a low-scoring week to prevail, with a 315, thanks to a lineup led by Minshew, Fournette, Jones, L. Murray, Thomas, Sutton, Tucker and the Patriots D.

Runner up was Trent, who posted a 306 thanks to a team featuring Cook, Jones, L. Murray, Hopkins, Gonzalez and the Patriots D.

This is Eric‘s first weekly win since Week 9 of last season, and Trent‘s first pay day since Week 5 a year ago. Congrats to Eric and Trent on the strong showing this week.

Honorable mention to rookie owners Dalton (303) and Nigel (302). Prior to MNF, Nigel was the only owner to score more than 300 points this week. Dalton also played Cardinals RB Chase Edmonds (59) as a wildcard. Edmonds outscored everyone else in play to earn the elusive 100-point bonus. (That bonus is reflected in Dalton‘s score in the overall standings.)

The Leader Board:

Week 7 shook up the early leader board, as former league champs TroyA and Kerry flip flop positions in the top two spots, followed by Tommy, Clayton, Trent and CraigW. It’s a tight race in the early going, and worth noting that Tommy, Trent and CraigW are a father and sons rivalry. Somewhere Tom‘s dad Roger ( a longtime owner in this league) is smiling.

TroyA	1420
Kerry	1405
CraigW	1386
SteveB	1383
Tommy	1370

And we’re back.

Week 1 is in the books, and once the early Monday Night Football game ended, most of our lineups started looking very healthy for their 2019 debut.

Rising above it all, SteveB leaned on two Eagles to post a 425. His lineup was led by Wentz, McCaffery, Carson, Ekeler, M. Thomas, Landry, and D. Jackson.

Michael was able to post a 412, thanks to a team led by Mahomes, Stafford, Kamara, Ingram, Hyde, Smith-Schuster, Hilton, Sutton, Kelce and Gostkowski.

It’s Steve‘s first weekly win of the season, but second in a row, having won Week 17 of the 2018 campaign. Michael earns his first payday since Week 12 of last year. Congrats to Steve and Michael on their strong season opener.

Honorable mention to Heather, who also topped 400 points in Week 1.

New Kids on the Block:
We have four rookie owners this season: CraigW, Chaz, Dalton and Nigel. All four of them had spectacular debuts, each scoring north of 300 points in their debut. Way to go gentlemen.
