Week 2 Headlines
Two weeks in, Nicholas W. Cookserio (2-0, power rank 1st) and Cook'n Rice (2-0) sit alone atop the standings, each riding 2-straight winning streaks while everyone else has at least one loss. Chase Jam is the week's biggest riser, jumping 3 spots to 4th in the power rankings after their upset over I Love Brock & Roll, who were favored by 11.08 and now sit 1-1 with an 0-1 mark against the spread. Treywentworth took the opposite ride, tumbling 3 spots to 5th despite a 1-1 record. At the bottom, Bake2803 and Thomas the TD Engine are both winless at 0-2 and mired in 2-game losing streaks, with Thomas the TD Engine's all-play record sitting at a rough 0-18. Upsets were the theme of the week, as Hampton Inn also knocked off Bake2803 despite being underdogs by 20.53.
Chase Jam cashed the closest game of the week, while Brock & Roll's bench regrets wrote themselves.
Chase Jam rode a monster CeeDee Lamb explosion, a typically efficient Patrick Mahomes outing, and Ja'Marr Chase chipping in to post the league's highest score of the week, 166.78, and squeak out the closest matchup on the board by 9.92. I Love Brock & Roll got a huge day from Amon-Ra St. Brown, but that wasn't enough to overcome a lineup mystery: Jared Goff sat the bench with 29.78 points, and starting him instead of Jalen Hurts would have flipped this one. NolanGrush was favored by 11.08 heading in, but Chase Jam covered in style, snatching the win and climbing from 7th to 4th in the standings. Both squads sit at 1-1, but only one of them is smiling about their bench decisions tonight.
Jaxon Smith-Njigba's 42.50 turned a coin-flip spread into a laugher, and Super SkatteBros are left counting the wreckage.
Nicholas W. Cookserio didn't just win, he sent Super SkatteBros to the scrap yard, torching the board behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba's monster 42.50 outing, with DeVonta Smith and Chris Olave piling on 27.70 and 22.60 for good measure. Super SkatteBros, meanwhile, got a genuinely nice game from Jahmyr Gibbs at 23.30 and solid support from Tee Higgins and D'Andre Swift, but it was never going to be enough against that receiver trio going nuclear. This one was picked as a near-coin-flip, with Super SkatteBros favored by 1.53, but Nicholas W. Cookserio blew that spread to pieces en route to a 63.12-point beatdown. The win keeps Nicholas W. Cookserio perched at 1st with a 2-0 record, while Super SkatteBros slide to 6th at 1-1, sliding down from 5th a week ago.
Team Blows didn't need Kelce to blow the doors off — Treywentworth's bench regrets were just the cherry on top.
Josh Allen went off for 40.82 and Tetairoa McMillan chipped in 15.10, but Treywentworth still fell 28.84 points short as Team Blows rode Dak Prescott's 29.76 and Jonathan Taylor's 29.20 to a comfortable 135.16 to 106.32 win. Treywentworth also left Tyler Shough's 22.38 on the bench, though even starting him couldn't have flipped this one. Meanwhile gsmyers25 didn't even need Travis Kelce's 25.10 off the pine to cover the 4.98-point spread. Team Blows climbs from 9th to 7th while Treywentworth slides from 2nd to 5th, both now sitting at 1-1.
Bake2803 got Dart-ed by their own lineup card while Hampton Inn cashed the cover in style.
Hampton Inn checked in and checked out with a win, riding Davante Adams' massive 39.50 outing to cover a spread that had Bake2803 favored by 20.53. Bake2803's Kenneth Walker and Jaylen Waddle put up solid numbers, but it wasn't enough as the loss dropped them to 0-2 and all the way to 9th in the standings. The real gut-punch, though, was Brock Purdy sitting on Bake2803's bench for 28.48 points while Jaxson Dart mustered just 0.80 — starting Purdy instead of Dart would have flipped this one. Meanwhile, NateN08 didn't even need Dalton Schultz or rookie Denzel Boston, both of whom watched from the bench and combined for a quietly impressive stat line that never touched the scoreboard.
Cook'n Rice didn't just win — they made Thomas the TD Engine look like it's still stuck at the station.
Cook'n Rice cooked up a statement win behind Matthew Stafford's 27.98 and Dalton Kincaid's 22.50, steamrolling Thomas the TD Engine by a whopping 71.62 points in the week's most lopsided affair. TreVeyon Henderson's 13.60 was the lone bright spot that actually counted for claytonmauldin's squad, while Terrance Ferguson and Jonah Coleman lit up the box score from the taxi squad — nice flashes for the future, but zero help in the loss column. ColtonHower didn't even need his full arsenal, leaving Tre Tucker's 22.90 on the bench, though frankly with a margin like this, starting him couldn't have changed a thing. Cook'n Rice not only covered the massive 35.39-point spread, they buried it, climbing to 2-0 and 2nd in the standings, while Thomas the TD Engine sinks to 0-2 and stays parked at the bottom with the league's lowest score.
