Fantasy Football Tuesday: Week 6

It is almost at the halfway point in the regular season of the JustUs Geeks Fantasy League.  Week 6 just finished and there are about 7 weeks left (it's a 13 week regular season).  At the unofficial halfway point, I am leading the league.  I started out Week 1 in third place overall and moved my way up to first place overall in Week 2 and have held there since.  Week 6 saw a rematch of Week 1 matchup between the Hub City All Stars and Starfleet.  It is the second of three regular season matchups within the Autobots division.  After a little bit of worrying about the Monday Night game, it ended up being a blowout.  Out of five wins, three have been blowouts, including two straight weeks and three of the last four weeks.  So my record is 5-1 and leading the league in points scored (1014.90) and given up the fewest points (747.90).  Here's the recap for Week 6:

Hub City All Stars Beats the Pants Off Starfleet and Remains Unbeaten in Head-to-Head Play

  • Hub City All Stars (5-1) 165.70
  • Starfleet (3-3) 102.08
Hub City All Stars humiliates Starfleet after another blowout, this time by a final score of 165.70 - 102.08. Tom Brady put up 53.80 points and was a force. It was much more than his 21.54 points in the last matchup with Starfleet. Hub City All Stars won 150.04 - 103.22 in Week 1, and now has a 55.22-point average margin of victory over Starfleet.
Hub City All Stars Smooth Moves
  • The 53.80 points scored by Tom Brady was the second-highest QB score of the week and is the ninth-highest QB score in the league this season.
  • With 21.40 points, Mike Wallace ranked ninth in the league in scoring among WRs this week.
  • The 15.30 points by James Jones topped a projected 8.03, extending his overachievement streak to three weeks.
  • The Seattle Seahawks Defense has now overachieved in five straight games after scoring 13.00 points against a projected 6.64.
  • In scoring 17.80 points, Eric Decker put up his largest point total of the year.
Starfleet Regret Tracker
  • Starfleet needed more points from the QB position, where Hub City All Stars beat them 53.80 - 9.68.
  • The 6.10 points scored by Reggie Bush was a season-low for both scoring and for his performance against projections. He reached only 40.0% of his 15.26 projected points this week.
  • With 3.10 points, Miles Austin had his lowest output of the season and tallied just 25.4% of his 12.21 projected points, his lowest percentage of the year.
  • It was a season-low 2.10 points for Dwayne Bowe this week. It was also a season-low for his performance versus projections, reaching only 22.2% of a projected point total of 9.46.
  • 8 of the 11 starters scored less than their projected points.
What If
  • Hub City All Stars would be 5-1 if they played Starfleet every week.
  • Hub City All Stars would have beaten five other teams besides Starfleet this week.
  • Had they played each other last week, Hub City All Stars would have defeated Starfleet 185.72 - 123.78.
  • Hub City All Stars would be 3-1 if they played the same schedule as Starfleet.
  • If Hub City All Stars had played every team in the league each week, they would be 33-9.
  • Starfleet would have been beaten by every other team in the league this week.
  • Starfleet would be 2-2 if they played the same schedule as Hub City All Stars.
  • Starfleet would be 15-27 if they played every team every week.
