In typical fashion, Dave Scott made a strong early season statement by defeating his own son Brian in a matchup that quickly became out of control once the 4 o'clock games were underway. Four 20-point outbursts from the likes of Justin Herbert, Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Michael Thomas, and Ja'Marr Chase propelled Colon Kaepernick into the 140 point territory and helped him claim the title of Week 1's highest scoring team. While Dave appears headed for another dominant regular season, Brian and the Scott Squad will need better performances from their receiving core if they wish to meet lofty preseason expectations.
Mother of Dogs defeats South Park Cows, 92.78 to 71.40
After being ranked no.1 in the way-too-early preseason power rankings, South Park Cows proved once again that their manager Evan Cook is hilariously incompetent with a 70 point dud against the defending champ Mother of Dogs. You know you have a woeful roster when your highest scoring player is your defense. Jonathan Taylor and Kareem Hunt looked great this weekend and provided more than enough scoring output for Ed to come out with the victory. The rest of his roster, however, left a lot to be desired and will need to take things up a notch if they hope to defeat anyone but the scum of the league this season.
whoisblockedbyjames9 defeats Public Enemies, 99.22 to 89.66
Safe to say that Ryan teDuits' entrance into the league did not exactly go according to plan. Considered a "fantasy football connoisseur" by many, teDuits was left to rely on his kicker and defense for most of his scoring this weekend - tough look. Meanwhile, Newman's trio of Burrow, Pittman, and Gibson gave him a respectable, if not overly impressive, Week 1 victory. To his credit, teDuits appeared to be spot-on with his preseason love of Jaboo Winston, providing a little bit of optimism for the rest of the season.
Thing defeats Shoe Leather Express, 100.48 to 90.50
The mighty Thing came out with a solid dub in a grudge match vs. cocky rookie Simon Chandler. Despite some consistent scoring output across the board for the SL Express, a lack of any true groundbreaking performances led to him coming up short vs. former league champion Rump. Rump Thing was able to offset miserable performances from both Cam Akers and Darnell Mooney with terrific efforts from Swift and Kelce, with decent supporting performances from Kirk Cousins and Succop.
SlothBucket defeats Sport Ball, 99.08 to 90.38
Despite the final score, this was most certainly a moral victory for Sport Ball, who managed to put up 90 points with a starting running back tandem of Kenyan Drake and Ty Johnson, the latter of which scored zero points. Josh Allen will be an obvious bright spot for Sock Gavel all season long and might even be enough to help his team contend for a wild card spot. On the flip side, SlothBucket's roster showed real consistency and despite a lackluster game from A-Rob, is off to a promising start.
Yung Yerma defeats Robinhood the Anti-Larf, 140.80 to 97.90
My oh my, did Yung Yerma put on a show this weekend. Contending closely with Dave for the highest scoring team of the week, Jeremy had three players with a scoring output above 25 points - not to mention his defense which put up a clutch 17. Mahomes, Barkley, and Adams will likely be offensive stalwarts all season and have Yung Yerma's team positioned strongly as championship favorites. Harry's squad put up a little bit of a fight but ugly performances from Stafford and Pitts crushed any reasonable hopes for victory.
Chris Larfley defeats Keegs, 90.16 to 88.72
Regardless of victory, Big Burss has very little reason to feel good about the remainder of the season, as a 34 point explosion from Justin Jefferson was the sole reason he came out ahead against Keegs. A trip to the IR for Eli Mitchell and gloomy prospects for Kadarius Toney to see the field in coming weeks have Chris Larfley feeling extra nervous despite starting the season 1-0. An underwhelming showing from Keegs was certainly a disappointment, but players like Kamara and Deebo are bound to see their production spike as the season progresses.
Bigger Burss defeats BermDawgs, 122.82 to 101.74
The surprise of the week has to be Ethan Cook going for the third highest scoring output in his GDFFL debut. Sure, Younghoe Koo and the Bills D will likely experience major regression next week, but the combination of Kyler Murray and Tyreek Hill should carry Bigger Burss throughout the regular season. BermDawgs actually put together a solid performance, proving that Cooper Kupp was a fine selection #2 overall. The loss of Dak to injury, however, is a major blow that could be tough to recover from.
