Evan Ash started the season well, but has a tough Week 2 test against an equally-good division rival. |
It’s a rare occurrence in a head-to-head league for the six
winners to also be the league’s six leading scorers, but that is just what we
had in the AFL this week.
Congratulations to the Balt/Atl Engineers, managed by the Football Freaks’ #1 fan, Evan Ash. His
group scored a league-leading 149.9 points. Peyton Manning set the tone
for his team with 47.6 points on Thursday night. Though his opponent was one of
two losing teams to top 100 points, there was no coming back from that
record-setting evening.
All six designated “home” teams won their matchups despite home-field advantage not being used in our league. They averaged 129
points while their opponents averaged 94.2 points, with the lowest score being
82.2.
Looking ahead to week 2, there will be three games featuring
undefeated teams facing off and three games featuring winless teams. Evan Ash
and Cory Puffett face off in a battle of 1-0 division rivals who have the two highest
point totals so far.

changed to the names of their owners):

facing an opponent with three such players, Danny H. rode a balanced output to
a 107.5-95.1 victory over Brandon S.
