WEEK TEN: Recap

For the moment, it appears the mighty have finally fallen- or at least, been staggered. New York's Finest was down a point to the Mighty Sasquatch before Tuesday morning adjustments increased that margin to nearly five. If Thursday's final adjustments maintain the difference, the defending champions' undefeated season is no more.

We'll examine each team in depth this week with some POWER RANKINGS!

Lightning Round:
Phoenix (8-2) has their lowest output of the season but still crushes Hill Valley (5-5) who scored the least of any team, any week, this season.

HCM City (4-6) ain't dead yet, stomping out the Islanders (6-4) and herding them back to the pack: 6 teams are now separated by 1 game, fighting for 4 spots over 3 weeks.

Toronto (6-4) wins again and is showing they're no pushover, cementing their lead over Pawnee (5-5) and controlling their own destiny.

Saskatoon (5-5) upsets New York (9-1) and can get their head above water for the first time in two months with another win.

The Moose Call (4-6) is faint, but discernible after crushing Deputy (4-6) who needed a win badly. Both teams will try to win out and hope for a miracle.

South Park (5-5) is taking care of business in crunch time. The lost season for the (2-8) Savannah Petes continues.

Liberal (4-6) finally gets a good bounce, and keeps the (3-7) Drivers' five game slide going downhill.

OPotW: RB Jeremy Langford, South Park (39.8pts)
In the final deal of the year, and the Cows' first deal in history, the team's acquisition paid immediate dividends, leading the league in scoring in week ten, beating out Adrian Peterson by a step. Langford had 182 total yards in his South Park debut, on twenty carries and seven catches. He scored a TD of both varieties, moved the chains seven times, and busted off an 83 yard game breaker. As long as Langford is touching the ball, he figures to be a game changing asset down the stretch.

DPotW: LB Bobby Wagner, Phoenix (21.6pts)
When Phoenix traded Langford there were some skeptics, and when Langford took home OPotW there was some doubt, and when the Uprising played RB Christine Michael in the spot Langford would have been perfect for, and he managed just over one point, there was a backlash. So Bobby Wagner, the get for Langford, responded by leading rostered IDPs in points this week. (Full disclosure, upon stat corrections, Uprising teammate Reshad Jones' 21.85 pts technically deserved DPotW honors, but this is a better story.) 11 total tackles, a batted ball, and a loose ball taken 22 yards to the house salvaged first impressions, but it will be what happens in the next six weeks that determines who won the trade.

PUotW: QB Kirk Cousins, Saskatoon (29.46pts)
The Sasquatch had a seemingly insurmountable task at hand against the 9-0 defending champions, and were going to have to do it without long time franchise Quarterback Matt Ryan. Problem? Nope. Kirk Cousins came in and played to annihilate, throwing for a line of 20-25, 324 yards, and four touchdowns. Peyton Manning he is not- and that's a good thing these days. With the deadline past, and Ryan set to return from bye, Cousins may not be long for the Sasquatch, but he'll be a folk hero forever in the great white north.
