Weekly Summary Provided by the Decepticons

 

With three weeks to go in the 2007 PQBFL season, there are essentially three mini-races and two teams not in any race at all.  The Beaudoin Brothers have first place essentially locked up.  Second place is a race between Dugongs and FlyingElvis, although the Dugongs may end up closer to the BB's than FE by seasons end.  The big race (i.e. in or out of the money) for fourth place is between Decepticons and OldNo7, and the race for sixth place is between Wax and UJ.  Spitoons has last place pretty much locked up.

The Beaudoin Brothers had a good week with LT leading the way with 173 total yards and 2 TDs for 25.75 points.  The BBs had good production all around with the kicker Gostkowski and LB DeMeco Ryans being the only starters without double digits.  The BBs first place finish this week was in question until the kicker Gostkowski made a tackle on a kickoff return in 3rd quarter of the NE vs PIT game.  Yeah, the BBs even get tackles from their kicker making tackles, that's how dominating they are this year.

The Dugongs scored a 2nd place finish in week 14 to remain the hottest team in the PQBFL .  Over the past four weeks the Dugongs have scored 29 rank points, 3 more than the BBs (26 rank points) and far ahead of the Decepticons (19 rank points) who have the third most.  The Dugongs came out on top over a very packed field 2nd through 6th place this week with only 10.75 points separating 2nd and 6th place.  Adrian Peterson had an off day with only 3 yards rushing on 14 carries for 1.25 points and the Cowboys defense gave up a big 27 points and 390 yards to the Lions for -1.5 points.  However Chester Taylor picked up the pieces for both the Vikings and the Dugongs while Randy Moss and Matt Hasselbeck turned in big days with 27.75 and 31.25 points, respectively.

WaxOnWaxOff came out of the shuffle in 3rd place to take the a 2-point rank lead over UncleJack for 6th place.  Even though Wax is only battling for 6th place overall, the team deserves a lot of credit considering how injuries have ravaged the team this year.    Even with 0 points from the QB position and almost half the team inactive due to injury Wax still managed a 3rd place with big points from the WR position (B Marshall and L Evans with 27.25 and 18.75, respectively), the Vikings defense beating up on the somewhat surprisingly piss poor 49ers with 23 points and decent production from most other starters.

The Decepticons were the only team with any starters in the MNF Saints vs Falcons game and were able to take advantage with Brees connecting with Colston for 9 receptions and two touchdowns.  Besides Brees and Colston with 28.75 and 24.5 points, Andre Johnson turned in another huge performance with 18 points.  Other than that, the Decepticons sucked and the coach left some points on the board starting the two worst (excluding asshole Tatum Bell ) running backs on the team.   With the big performances from Brees, Colston, and A Johnson Decepticons were able to take a 1-point rank lead over Old for 4th place with three weeks remaining.  The race for 4th place looks to be the most exciting of the mini-races mentioned previously going into the stretch run.

UncleJack ended up only 0.25 points behind Decepticons in the 2nd through 6th place clusterfuck this week .  UJ also left some valuable points on the board, sitting DL Kerney after a disappointing week 13.  Kerney made up for his week 13 performance, however it was on the bench and his 21 points were wasted.  Jamal Lewis, proving to be a great pickup for UJ after the trade with Decepticons last offseason surprising everyone as the 5th leading scoring RB in PQBFL this year , did not disappoint with 23.25 points and Peyton Manning made a fool of J Lewis' old team throwing four long touchdowns against the Ravens in less than three quarters of work.  P Manning and the Colts have quietly looked very impressive over the past few weeks, many would say they have looked even more impressive than the media darling Patriots.

Speaking of the Patriots, FE is banned from the weekly summary this week for their ridiculous diatribe after this weeks' game.

The Spitoons, last year's champ, as usual stunk up the joint with a 7th place in week 14.  This is the 8th time this season Spit has either placed 7th or 8th; at least Spit didn't start anyone injured this week as has been a problem with the coach this year .  B Westbrook (the best RB in the league, it's too bad the Eagles have such a shitty coach and QB) had a sub-par day with 15.75 points.  L Fitz had a good day with a TD and 17.75 points overall.  Incredibly, even with the 7th place finish the Spitoons finished with the highest coaching efficiency (93.7%) in week 14.

On the other hand, Old had a terrible coaching efficiency of 58.7%, although the main reasons for this are only two players who the coach cannot really be blamed for not starting.  Favre outscored C Palmer (who was facing the shitty Rams) by 21.75 points on the bench while rookie Anthony Gonzalez exploded for 2 TDs and 28.5 points on the bench while Dwayne Bowe had just 2 receptions for 3.75 points.  Of the starters, MBIII partied like it was last season with 3 touchdowns and Sean Jones (who the hell is Sean Jones) racked up the defensive stats with 8 tackles/assists, 1 INT, half a sack, and a quarterback hit for 15.5 points.  It was not enough for Old though, as the last place finish  this week means they are 1 rank-point behind Decepticons for 4th place.

 

Note: sometimes the NFL announces stats changes and according to PQBFL rules, the results are not totally official until Sunday 1pm Eastern.
