Welcome to the official MFL Week 6 recap thread, this week in the MFL saw dominating performances from Duncan and Dusty which was enough to allow Dusty to claim first place from Girl Girl Grave, Free Bill Simmons once again change their name (now Free Todd Gurley, and Danny's fantasy football woes continue. This week 4 of the 6 games were decided by 20 pts or less while the other 2 were decided by 20 pts or more.

Rock Terror (5-1, 607.34 points) remains in third place while The Taint (2-4, 576.94 points) stays in eighth place.
Free Todd Gurley (Jerry) vs. Backfield Penetration (Monster Mark)
Free Todd Gurley earned their third win in as many matchups when they beat BackfieldPenetration 86.44 to 77.94. They were led by Jay Cutler with 24.34 points and Giovani Bernard who had 21.70. Free Todd Gurley has been racing to the top like a rocket during their win streak. They've moved from eighth place to fourth since Week 4.

BackfieldPenetration goes to 1-5 and holds steady in 11th place. Free Todd Gurley has recently knocked over The Bastaaards (127.92 to 72.32) and MadMan Gamers (110.06 to 108.94).
Free Josh Gordon (Dusty) vs. Go Blue Girl (Joanna)
Fantasy football owners will accept any point margin to keep a win streak alive, but if you are able to win in a commanding fashion, it makes the streak all the more sweet. That is what Free Josh Gordon accomplished this week when they put up the second-highest point total this season, and won their third straight win, stomping Go Blue Girl 137.02 to 90.26. Since the streak started in Week 4, Free Josh Gordon has climbed from sixth place to claim the top spot in the league. They're doing it by scoring a lot of points and they own the highest overall point total in the league, averaging 104.43 points per matchup. Go Blue Girl slides to ninth place with a 2-4 record. Free Josh Gordon has recently run over MadMan Gamers (122.80 to 113.22) and BackfieldPenetration (110.74 to 60.10).
MadMan Gamers (tav7623/MadMan Gamer) vs. Of Hogs and Hokies (Danny Trioxin)
Yuck. In a game that wasn't fun for anyone to watch, MadMan Gamers (4-2, 611.90 points) found a way to beat Of Hogs and Hokies 77.54 to 65.64, despite scoring just the 10th-highest point total in the league this week. MadMan Gamers should feel pretty lucky, winning with just 76.0% of their 101.98 per-game average. As the saying goes, however, luck is when preparation meets opportunity. Luck hasn't always been on their side, though. They've also had the misfortune of two tough losses this season, losing even though they scored near the top of the league in points. This was a rough one for Of Hogs and Hokies (0-6, 406.30 points) to take as, in addition to losing, they also finished dead last in the league in points.
