Welcome to the official MFL week 4 recap thread, this week in the MFL saw the last of the undefeated teams (MadMan Gamers) fall, Mark's team got penetrated big time by Go Blue Girl this week losing by 73 pts, Free Justin Blackmon (Jerry) changed their name to Free Bill Simmons, and Danny's losing streak continues this week courtesy of Girl Graves. This week saw only 1 game decided by 10 pts or less while the other 5 games were decided by 20 pts or more, also this week saw both the lowest (35 pts) and highest (127 pts) scores posted so far this year.
Go Blue Girl (Joanna) vs. Backfield Penetration (Monster Mark)
Aaron Rodgers, whose 36.88 points were the second-highest point total by a player this week, carried Go Blue Girl past BackfieldPenetration 108.38 to 35.00. While BackfieldPenetration (1-3) is only a game back of Go Blue Girl (2-2), it has a lot to do with luck because total points tells a different story, 405.16 to 246.56. BackfieldPenetration definitely shouldn't plan a trip to Vegas. Their luck couldn't get any worse as they are on a three-game losing streak. On top of the loss, BackfieldPenetration had several starters score zero points.
Free Bill Simmons (Jerry) vs. The Bastaaaards (Duncan)
Free Bill Simmons got the highest score of the season and crushed The Bastaaards 127.92 to 72.32. While The Bastaaards (1-3) is only a game back of Free Bill Simmons (2-2), it has a lot to do with luck because total points tells a different story, 419.42 to 313.36. There is the good, the bad, the ugly, and then there is this. The 55.60-point margin of victory is the second-highest in the league this season. Adding insult to injury, The Bastaaards had several starters score zero points.
Rock Terror (CA Bain) vs. Dark's Dragons
Rock Terror benefited from the third-highest point total of the week (33.08 points) by Philip Rivers, on the way to their third consecutive win when they smashed Dark's Dragons 112.78 to 75.18. Rock Terror is making magic happen for their team, as they have the fourth-highest overall point total in the league this season by averaging 96.95 points per matchup. Dark's Dragons stays in 10th place with a 1-3 record. Rock Terror is in second place, having now beaten The Fighting Kittens (85.36 to 80.94) and BackfieldPenetration (92.04 to 62.80).
The Fighting Kittens (Smoke/SmokeTNT) vs. The Taint(Brett)
The Fighting Kittens took advantage of 28.80 points from Jamaal Charles and 27.50 from DeMarco Murray, thrashing The Taint 91.90 to 63.26. The beatdown gave The Fighting Kittens two blowout wins on the season. Following a 96.16 to 70.14 win against Of Hogs and Hokies, The Taint saw their scoring shrink this week. The Taint (2-2, 357.94 points) drops to eighth place while The Fighting Kittens (3-1, 363.92 points) remains in fifth place.
Grave Robbers (Girl Graves) vs. Of Hogs and Hokies (Danny Trioxin)
Grave Robbers is probably a huge fan of Andrew Luck right now, after he put up the second-highest point total by a player this season with 38.62 points, leading to a 79.02 to 59.12 victory over Of Hogs and Hokies. The winless 2008 Lions aren't role models, but no one tell that to Of Hogs and Hokies. They have yet to crack the win column this year. Matthew Stafford led Of Hogs and Hokies with 30.52 points while Brandon Marshall racked up 7.90. Both teams left points off the scoreboard in this one, as Grave Robbers started one player with zero points and Of Hogs and Hokies also served up one. Grave Robbers (3-1, 367.80 points) falls to fourth place and Of Hogs and Hokies (0-4, 258.52 points) stays in last place.
Free Josh Gordon (Dusty) vs. MadMan Gamers (tav7623/madman gamer)
Free Josh Gordon registered the second-highest point total this week and erased a 15.62-point deficit on Sunday night. They beat MadMan Gamers 122.80 to 113.22. While both sides played quite well, Free Josh Gordon put up 26.7% more points than projected (96.94) to pick up the win. Matt Ryan led MadMan Gamers with 28.12 points while Frank Gore racked up 23.40. Free Josh Gordon (3-1, 378.82 points) climbs into third place while MadMan Gamers (3-1, 425.42 points) stays in first place.
