I think these notepads are getting longer and longer, but the ratings are up so open wide and get ready for content! Ryan ran out of Monday night magic and came up just short against Jacob to fall to 6-6. Ryan could’ve put Kyler Murray in over Geno Smith to capture the win, or slotted Garrett Wilson in over Courtland Sutton (duh!) and won comfortably. It was also frustrating to see Jonathan Taylor start to walk in for a 2nd TD before Matt Ryan fumbled the exchange. So many what ifs for us teams that don’t make it. This was a classic Jensen season though. Big opening week followed by getting blown out twice. Then I win two really exciting games to make it to 3-2, but one of my top draft picks then blows his knee out. Fast forward through terrible performances in October to a super low scoring win that saves the hopes of the season. Then the team gets super hot and starts dropping 100 points every week, only to fall 1 point short and miss the playoffs. From here on out, if anyone else ever does this, it shall be called “pulling a Jensen”. Let’s dive into this juicy meat on the playoff bones. What we already knew was that Jacob has clinched his division, and Sean has clinched a playoff spot. Sean still has the advantage on the #1 seed thanks to a strength of victory (SoV) tiebreaker. Sean currently has an SoV of 58 while Jacob has a 46, which is a large enough margin for Sean to clinch the tiebreaker against Jacob. Sean has not yet clinched his division though. Here are the division leaders’ playoff scenarios. Sean wins #1 seed with 2 wins. Sean wins #1 seed with 1 win AND 1 loss from Jacob. Sean wins #1 seed with 2 losses from Jacob AND 1 loss from Erik. Jacob wins #1 seed with 2 wins AND 1 loss from Sean. Jacob wins #1 seed with 1 win AND 2 losses from Sean Jacob wins #1 seed with 2 losses from Sean AND 1 loss from Erik. The only way that Sean loses the division is if he loses his last two games and Erik wins his last two games, otherwise he will be the #1 or #2 seed. Jacob is guaranteed to be the #1 or #2 seed. Erik benefits from the elimination or the commissioner by being the 3rd team to clinch a playoff spot. His 9-3 record extends his record of “best start by a defending champion”, and it is good enough to guarantee he finishes ahead of Ryan and Aaron. Erik joins Terrance as the only defending champions to make the playoffs the following year (Terrance has done it twice). Here are the playoff scenarios for Erik: Erik wins #1 seed with 2 wins AND 2 losses from Sean AND 2 losses from Jacob. Erik wins #2 seed with 2 wins AND 2 losses from Sean AND at least 1 win from Jacob. Erik can clinch finishing no lower than the #3 seed with a win over Schweg this weekend. If Erik loses to Schweg this weekend, it will guarantee that the Schwegler brothers will be the wildcard teams. They will have split the season series and will both have a 4-3 divisional record. One team could win and the other could lose in Week 14 to decide the #3 and #4 seeds, or if the end up tied, it would mean their divisional records would be tied. Erik has an SoV of 38 while Schweg has an SoV of 36 (with an implied 37 if we are assuming Schweg wins in Week 13). Wins by Aaron, Jake or Terrance will improve Erik’s SoV score, while wins by Jacob will improve Schweg’s SoV score. Schweg has already been eliminated from the division title race, so he is trying to lock down a wildcard seed with a win in either week 13 or 14. The top 4 we have had for the last month continue to win and the playoffs look mostly secure for those top 4. But wait…there is another… Aaron is not dead yet at 6-6 and there is one scenario where he can remove Schweg from the playoff picture. Aaron has to win his last 2 games against Jacob and Chase, and Schweg has to lose his last 2 games against Erik and Sean. That’s 4 games that have to go a certain way for Aaron to sneak into the playoff picture. Now back into the usual Notepad stuff— Sean is still our points leader on the season, but his pace has fallen down to 1,511 points, good enough for 5th most in league history. After one week of having the fewest points scored against, Jacob passes the baton right back to Sean who is having 83.9ppg scored against him. That pace is 1,174, which would be the 5th fewest. Averaging 75.9ppg, Chase is on pace to have the 3rd lowest scoring season in league history. Schweg is getting hit with healthy 98.6ºppg, which isn’t too bad because the pace does not crack the top 10. Jacob becomes the 13th team to record a 6-game winning streak. Four other teams won 6 in a row, and four teams have won 7 in a row. Chase and Erik both won 8 games in a row (across different seasons), while Aaron recorded a 14-game and a 9-game winning streak in 2012 and 2013. If you are wondering how Aaron is our league leader in wins and winning percentage, remember that he went 24-4 during a 28-game stretch back in the day. Aaron becomes the first owner to win 100 games! He has a regular season record of 92-73-1, a playoff record of 6-4, and a consolation record of 2-2. The Schwegtopia division leads interdivisional play with a 21-8 record. For the first time all season, Jarrett is our lowest scorer of the week. Only the big 3 (Sean, Jacob, Erik) have avoided being the lowest weekly scorer. Prior to last week, we had never seen consecutive weeks where there was a 1-point margin of victory in any game in the league. Then for the first time, we had back to back weeks with a 1-point margin, and Jarrett just happened to be on the losing end of both of them. We now have 3 straight weeks of a 1-point victory, and now it’s Jacob who gets back-to-back 1-point victories. Jacob now leads the league with 5 career 1-point victories. Jacob’s win over Ryan was the 5th 1-point victory where both teams scored over 100 points, and Ryan has been on the losing end of 2 of those games. Ryan is now tied with Aaron for the 2nd most 100+ point losses. Ryan has a record of 40-13 when scoring at least 100 points. That 75.4% win percentage is the 2nd lowest in the league behind Jarrett’s 70.0% win pct. For the first time since the 2012 and 2013 seasons, we have at least 3 teams with at least 9 wins. 2013 was the only season that had 3 teams with 10 wins. This season has the potential to yield 3 teams with 11 wins. For the 2nd time this season, Jacob leads the league in scoring. For those who saw Derrick Henry catch a pass and run 69 yards before fumbling, you would know that he was so close to scoring a TD but instead fumbled it and it was recovered by Treylon Burks for a TD. If Henry had scored that TD, Chase would’ve beaten Schweg and the playoff picture would be much different. Justin Tucker’s 67-yard FG attempt would’ve given Chase the win as well had he converted. Terrance now has a record of 2-3 when he has a player score at least 40 points. Josh Jacobs 41 point game marks the 25th 40+ game in league history. Teams are 21-4 when a player scores at least 40 points, with Terrance making up for 3 of those losses. The other was when Aaron had the Seattle D/ST score 41 points in 2012 but he still lost, 151-135. All of the teams with the better record in each matchup won this week. Jarrett becomes the 7th team in league history to lose at least 11 games in one season. Only one team has lost 12 games and that was Erik in 2018, whose team name was “Hail Mary Jane,” finished just 1-12-1. One more win would keep FreiermuthKnuckleth out of being the worst team in league history. Aaron has now won 6 of the last 7 games against Jake and leads the series 15-9-1. The 15 wins are tied for 3rd most for any owner vs another. After the series was tied up at 6-6 in 2019, Schweg has now won 5 straight games against Chase to lead the series 11-6. Erik has defeated Terrance in 5 consecutive games, and is averaging 124.4ppg in those games. Erik used to have a record of 1-8-1 against Terrance which was the most lopsided rivalry at the time. Now Erik is 6-8-1 in a much more balanced rivalry. The bass is louder than the drums! Sean snaps a 5-game losing streak against Jarrett and beats him for the first time since Week 9, 2018. It was in that game that Jarrett failed to score 100 points which ended his record streak of 7 consecutive games of scoring 100 points or more. Sean would win that game and score over 100 points and would go on to break Jarrett’s record the following week with an 8th straight 100+ point game. Neither team ended up making the playoffs that year despite Sean scoring the 2nd most points in league history and Jarrett finishing with the 6th most. Through the first 7 weeks, teams were 19-2 when scoring at least 100 points (90.5% win pct). Since then, teams are 14-5 (73.7% win pct). After a week of falling behind, Ryan re-passes Jarrett to move back into 5th place for average points per game from the RB position. Jacob passes Aaron to move into 5th place for average points per game from the K position. A fun nugget to remember is Jake’s record against Ryan, Schweg & Sean in comparison to Jake’s record vs the rest of the league. Jake is 44-15 against those 3 owners and 50-67-2 against the rest of the league. Ever since winning his 3rd Robbie Bowl, Terrance is now 10-26-1 over the last 3 seasons. Jarrett has not clinched last place yet, and he gets to play the two 3-9 teams to close out the season: Chase & Terrance. If he wins both of those games and Chase loses to Aaron in Week 14, Jarrett could snake his way out of last place. Jake has now failed to score 100 points in 11 consecutive games. That is the 5th longest streak in league history. Schweg goes 3-1 in the month of November and remains the king of November with a 61.8% win pct. That drops down to 48.5% for Schweg in the month of December. Jacob has won his 3rd division title, which is tied with Ryan and Sean for 2nd most. Aaron has won 4 division titles, but Sean could also end up winning is division and moving up to 4 as well. Jacob will be in the playoffs for the 8th time in his 11 year career. The 8 playoff appearances are the most by any team in league history, breaking the tie he held with Terrance. Sean will be making his 5th playoff appearance while Erik will be making his 4th playoff appearance (all of which have come in the past 6 years). Both of these teams have now made the playoffs in 3 consecutive seasons, which is tied for 2nd most. Chase has now missed the playoffs in 6 consecutive seasons which is tied for the 2nd longest playoff drought in league history. Schweg will be looking for his 3rd playoff appearance, and will try to prevent Aaron from making his 6th trip to the playoffs. Week 13 Preview Erik (9-3) vs Schweg (8-4) The Schwegler Bowl is always one of the best games of our season, regardless of team records and implications. Schweg has a chance to punch his ticket to the playoffs with a win, while his younger brother has an opportunity to keep him from qualifying while staying in the division race. The most famous Schwegler matchup took place in Week 14 of our inaugural 2011 season. Schweg just needed to win to make the playoffs but lost to Erik 157-143. The 300 combined points still stands today as the most combined points in a single game. Erik leads the series 13-9, and won their lone playoff matchup in Robbie Bowl VII. Game Rating: 17 Jacob (10-2) vs Aaron (6-6) This classic, brotherly rivalry has been one of the best rivalries in the league for year. They have met twice in the semifinals, and Jacob won both of those matchups to advance to Robbie Bowl II and Robbie Bowl V. Aaron won the 3rd place game against Jacob in 2018. Aaron leads the all-time series 11-10-1. Game Rating: 16 Sean (10-2) vs Jake (4-8) Jake has won 4 straight games against Sean and leads the aforementioned series 12-4. The 75% win pct is tied for the 2nd most lopsided rivalry in the league. These teams have met 3 times in the playoffs and Jake has won all 3 games. That includes a victory in Robbie Bowl I, and semifinal victories in each of the last 2 seasons. Game Rating: 14 Ryan (6-6) vs Terrance (3-9) Ryan may have been eliminated from playoff contention, but he is still trying to get his 7th win to avoid a losing season. Ryan has never had a losing season in the history of the league, as he has finished 7-7 or 8-6 in all 11 seasons. Terrance leads the series 10-8 and has won all 3 of their playoff matchups which propelled Terrance to each of his 3 championships. That included a semifinal win in 2014, and back to back wins in Robbie Bowl VIII and Robbie Bowl IX. Game Rating: 9 Chase (3-9) vs Jarrett (1-11) One of these two teams will finish in last place. Terrance already beat both of these teams so he would win any tiebreaker and will not be the first person to finish in last place in back to back seasons. If Chase wins, Jarrett will clinch last place. Chase leads the series 10-9. Game Rating: 4

I may be a little biased, but the headline from Week 11 has to be the incredible and improbable victory that I pulled out on the Sunday and Monday night games and the implications that game had on the playoff picture. First of all, Travis Kelce is a monster, and for the 2nd time this season, he has pulled out a win for me in a primetime game. Kelce’s 29 points in Week 11 were the 4th most ever from the TE position. Secondly, Sean still maintains the #1 seed but it’s by way of a strength of victory tiebreaker. Jacob and Sean split their interdivisional series, so strength of victory could be the deciding factor for the top seed. It is looking highly likely that Sean will maintain that tiebreaker in the event these two teams end up tied. Thirdly, Jacob and Sean become the 3rd and 4th teams to start the season 9-2. We have never seen a 10-1 or better team. The two previous teams to start the season 9-2 were Sean’s 2012 team, “Cruz Control,” and Aaron’s 2013 team, “Two Dollar Pistols.” Both teams went on to win the championship. Sean had already clinched a playoff spot last week thanks to his division record of 6-1. Even if he were to lose out, the schedule makes it so the other teams in his division will not all be able to pass him. Two of the teams could, but Sean would win any tiebreaker against Erik, Schweg or Ryan by either his head-to-head record, or his division record, or if a team still is tied with Sean, his strength of victory will be high enough to break any tie. Now we have a second playoff team with Jacob officially clinching the Vaidenville Division. His 9-2 record means he can finish 9-5 at worst, while Aaron could be 8-6 at best. Erik’s 8-3 start is the best start by any defending champion. Through Week 11, here are the results of each defending champion. You’ll see how only 2 defending champions have ever made the playoffs and they were both Terrance. 2012: Jake (4-6-1) - finished 9th 2013: Sean (1-10) - finished 9th 2014: Aaron (5-6) - finished 7th 2015: Terrance (5-6) - finished 3rd 2016: Jacob (3-8) - finished 10th 2017: Jake (6-5) - finished 5th 2018: Erik (1-10) - finished 10th 2019: Terrance (5-6) - finished 1st 2020: Terrance (5-6) - finished 8th 2021: Aaron (6-5) - finished 6th 2022: Erik (8-3) Erik is currently the #3 seed, but he was swept by Sean meaning he would have to win 2 more games than Sean in the final two weeks to overtake him for the division. The elder Schwegler holds on to the #4 seed despite a loss to put him at 7-4. Ryan sits right behind him at 6-5, but thanks to a season sweep, he essentially has a 2-game lead over both Ryan and Aaron going into the final 3 weeks. There have been 30 teams to start their season 7-4 or better, and every single one of them has made the playoffs. It would be pretty embarrassing to be the first 7-4 team to miss the playoffs. With a win over the league’s top team, Ryan’s season might have been saved, but he still has an uphill battle to crack the top 4. The schedule of the last 3 weeks is also very interesting with many of these teams having to play each other. We will take a look at the upcoming schedule a little later. Aaron gets 45 points in Mexico City to snap his 4 game losing streak and remain in the playoff picture. He can’t win his division. He can’t pass Sean, and he lost against Erik so he would lose a tiebreaker, which means he must overtake both Schweg and Ryan in the final 3 weeks. He lost the season series to Ryan, so he would need to pass him outright, but he would win a tiebreaker over Schweg. If Aaron wins out, he could even afford to let Schweg win one more game and still make the playoffs as long as Ryan lost two of his last three. Jake has now scored fewer than 80 points in 4 consecutive games, which is the longest streak of his career. That is tied for the 3rd longest streak for scoring less than 80 points in a game. There are four teams tied with a 5-game streak of sub-80 scoring, and Jarrett’s record setting lowest scoring team from 2017 went 9 consecutive weeks without hitting 80 points. Something interest that came out of this data was out of the 15 different streaks of at four games scoring below 80 points, 5 of those teams ended up making the playoffs. The last 4 wins for Ryan have been very close, with the margins of victory being 4, 1, 3 and 4. Sean is still our season points leader averaging 109.9 points per game which is on pace for 1,539 points which is only good enough for 4th most all time. He will need to finish with 1,547 points to have the 1st, 2nd and 3rd highest scoring seasons in league history. At the other end of the spectrum, Chase is averaging just 74.8 points per game which puts him on pace for 1,047 points which would be the 2nd fewest ever. For the first time this season, Schweg is now the team who has the most points scored against him, with an average of 99.5 points against every week. It seems like a lot but that pace wouldn’t even crack the top 10. Also a newcomer to the points list, Jacob is now on top for fewest points scored against. Maybe he’s 9-2 partly because he’s only having 83.4 points scored against him per game. That pace of 1,168 points against would be the 5th fewest in league history. The 135 points that Aaron scored were the 3rd most in any game this season, and it was tied for the 2nd most points that Aaron has ever scored in a game. Jarrett has now lost back-to-back games by 1 point. This was the first time in league history that we had back-to-back weeks where the even was a 1-point margin of victory, unless you count Jake’s 1-point in Robbie Bowl VI and the “following” week 1 of the 2017 season. The fact that the first time this happened also included Jarrett being the loser of both games seems highly improbable and unfortunate. Jarrett has been so close in most of his games too, losing 8 games by 17 or fewer points. This was Jarrett’s 4th career loss by 1-point, tying Chase for the most such losses. Tyler Bass records the 7th 20+ point game from a kicker in league history. Brett Maher also scored 20 points, but was dropped by Schweg before gametime. Aaron records his 99th win, and will be looking to become the first owner with 100 wins by defeating Jake in Week 12. Ryan has now tied Jake for the 2nd-most wins in league history with 94. No team has ever finished undefeated within their division, but there have been three teams that finished 7-1. Aaron in 2013 (finished 1st), Schweg in 2017 (finished 2nd), and Erik in 2021 (finished 1st) all went 7-1 in their division. Sean got his first division loss, but will play Schweg in Week 14 to try to get to 7-1. Jacob remains undefeated with two more division games left. He plays Aaron in Week 13 and Jake in Week 14. In a repeat of Robbie Bowl XI from last season, Erik defeats Jake once again to complete the season sweep. Erik has been dominant over Jake lately. Amidst Erik’s 1-12-1 disaster season of 2018, Erik managed to tie Jake in Week 13, ending Jake’s chances of making the playoffs. Erik is 8-1 against Jake since then. Schweg overtakes Jarrett and how has had the most career points scored against him with an average of 94.70 points scored against him each game. Ryan passes Chase to move into 2nd place for highest average points per game from the QB position. Jarrett passes Terrance to move into 4th place for highest average points per game from the WR position. Ryan passes Sean to move into 3rd place for highest average points per game from the TE position. Jake has started a league-high 32 different players across all positions, while Erik has started a league-low 21 different players. Jake has failed to score 100 points in 10 consecutive games, which is tied for the 5th longest streak in league history. Final 3 Weeks Hardly a week ago, our playoff picture looked clear and simple. Things got a little bit more interesting in Week 11. As mentioned earlier, Sean is our top seed and in control of his destiny. His final games are against Jarrett, Jake and Schweg. Jacob is our #2 seed and finishes the season against Ryan, Aaron and Jake. Erik is our #3 and he plays Terrance, Schweg and Ryan. Schweg is #4 and plays Chase, Erik and Sean. Ryan is #5 and plays Jacob, Terrance and Erik. Aaron is #6 and plays Jake, Jacob and Chase. Jake has officially been eliminated from playoff contention sitting in 7th place with a 4-7 record, and the other teams below him (Terrance, Chase & Jarrett) are also eliminated. We don’t need to pick apart the division leaders’ schedules the rest of the year, but seeds 3-6 can get very interesting. Erik plays two teams chasing him which gives him the ability to solidify his playoff status by defeating them, but also opens the door to a possibility where Erik falls out of playoff contention if he loses those games. Schweg is in control of his playoff destiny and has a favorable matchup against Chase in Week 12. After that, his games are against Erik and Sean, and the two teams chasing him (Ryan and Aaron) will be hoping to see Schweg drop some Ls. Ryan is hoping to get wins against Jacob and Terrance to get to 8-5, which would likely give him a win-and-get-in scenario in Week 14 against Erik. This season has been very odd, and it is within the realm of possibility that a team could finish 9-5 and still miss the playoffs which would be a first in league history. 83% of 6-loss teams end up making the playoffs. Aaron’s opponents are irrelevant to his specific playoff picture, which means he will be screen watching several games hoping for some luck to go his way. It would start with Erik losing to Terrance, Schweg losing to Chase and Ryan losing to Jacob in Week 14. Week 12 Preview Jacob (9-2) vs Ryan (6-5) Ryan leads the all-time series 9-8. Game Rating: 15 Erik (8-3) vs Terrance (3-8) Terrance leads the all-time series 8-5-1, but Erik has won 4 consecutive games by scoring 131, 110, 104 and 163 points in those games. Game Rating: 11 Sean (9-2) vs Jarrett (1-10) Jarrett leads the all-time series 12-8 in the Battle of the Rhythm Section game. Jarrett has won 5 straight against Sean and 11 of the last 12. Game Rating: 11 Schweg (7-4) vs Chase (3-8) Schweg leads the all-time series 10-6 and has won 4 consecutive games against Chase. Game Rating: 10 Aaron (5-6) vs Jake (4-7) Aaron leads the all-time series 14-9-1 and has won 5 of the last 6 matchups, including a win over Jake in Robbie Bowl X. Game Rating: 9

Week 10 was the 3rd lowest scoring week of 2022, with an average score of 84.6 points. Teams scoring 100 points or more are 28-5 this season. That 84.8% win percentage is only good enough for 7th best in league history. The average score for all games in 2022 is 91.85 points, which puts the league on pace for a total of 12,859 points. That would be the 4th-fewest points ever scored in a season, and the fewest scored since 2017. The four teams that have never won a Robbie Bowl are Chase, Jarrett, Schweg and Ryan. Their total losses in league history are between -$778 and -$862. Right now we are on pace to have 269 adds/drops throughout the regular season. That would be the fewest since 2017, and tied for 2nd fewest ever. Sean remains our points leader and is on pace for 1,551 points, which would be good for 2nd most all-time. For the 2nd time in league history and the 2nd time for Sean, he has started a season 9-1. The championship team Cruz Control from 2012 started 9-1 before losing their 2nd game. If Sean can win this week, it will be the best start for any team in league history. Four weeks ago, the Vaiden brothers were tied at 4-2. Since then, Jacob has won 4 straight games and Aaron has lost 4 straight games. The 75 points scored by Erik were the fewest he’s had in any game this season, and the fewest he’s had since Week 10 of 2020. In each of the last two weeks, Terrance has gotten more points from Justin Fields (41 and 38) than he got from his QB in Weeks 1-5 combined (34). Aaron falls to 11-13 in his series against Ryan, and has lost 11 of their last 14 matchups. Jacob becomes the 4th owner in the league to reach 90 wins. With Terrance losing this week, Jacob now has the fewest losses of any owner (75). Jacob also surpasses Jake to move into 2nd place for career winning percentage (54.5%). In their last 4 games against each other, Jacob has narrowly escaped victory over Chase in 3 very low scoring battles. Jacob won their 2021 games 71-69 and 73-69, and has now won this season 111-74 and 76-44. The average score for those games is 83-64. Jacob now leads the series 10-6. After a disappointing game in which he scored just 44 points, Chase has the fewest points scored this season and is on pace to score 1,047 points which would be the 2nd fewest in league history. For the 8th time in league history, a team had 3 players score 0 or fewer points. Chase got 3 zeros from Chase Claypool, Taysom Hill & Jerry Jeudy. Over the last 4 weeks, the average score for Aaron is 92-113. He is averaging 99.3 points in the last 3 weeks but has not found good luck with his opponents. The 120 combined points scored in the Chase-Jacob game was the fewest of the season, and tied for the 7th fewest in league history. Ryan got 21 points from Jonathan Taylor and 19 points from D’Onta Foreman which were the 2nd and 3rd most RB point totals of his entire season. Taylor scored 23 points in Week 1, and Ryan only had one other RB (Deon Jackson) score over 15 points all season. Jake’s 1-point victory over Jarrett was the 2nd 1-point victory this season, and the 23rd game decided by a single point in league history. This was Jake’s 4th career game in which he won by 1 point, which is tied with Terrance for the most. Schweg is now tied with his brother for 2nd most career games with 100 points or more (71). Terrance leads the league with 74. There were 3 games in Week 10 that were decided by 5 points or less. Jake has now scored less than 100 points in 9 consecutive weeks. Sean passes Schweg to move into 3rd place for highest average points per game from the D/ST. Ryan passes Chase to move out of last place for average points per game from WRs. Schweg has now won 3 consecutive games. He is the only owner this season to have two separate 3-game winning streaks. Schweg was the highest scorer of the week in Week 10. He has been the leading score in two of the last three weeks. Playoff Picture Sean currently holds the #1 seed with a 9-1 record, and a 6-0 divisional record. He has already swept Erik and has one win against Schweg, which essentially gives him a 3-game lead with just 4 games to play. Sean has now officially clinched the first playoff spot of 2022, and can clinch the division with a win and losses from Schweg and Erik. Jacob currently holds the #2 seed with an 8-2 record, and a 5-0 divisional record. Jacob already has wins over his closest division mates Aaron and Jake. One more win from Jacob or one loss each from Aaron and Jake would seal the division for Jacob. Jacob can clinch a playoff spot this week with a win and a loss from Ryan. The wildcard spots are being held down by the Schwegler brothers. Erik won the week 1 matchup and holds the tiebreaker for now, giving him the edge as the #3 seed. They play again in Week 13. Out of the 23 teams to start the season with 3 or fewer losses through Week 10, every single one has made the playoffs. Schweg and Erik are the 24th and 25th teams. There are no clinching scenarios for the Schweglers in Week 10. Entrenched in the middle of the league harder than ever, Ryan sits at 5-5 with a 1-4 divisional record. He is two games behind each of the Schweglers, and has already been swept by Schweg, and has lost once to Erik and will face him in Week 14, so he is basically three games out of the playoff picture with four weeks to go. His win over Aaron gives him the season sweep of his interdivisional opponent. His tiebreakers over the 4-6 teams Aaron and Jake essentially give him a 2-game lead on 5th place. Ryan is trying to win at least two more games to continue his record streak of never finishing the regular season with a losing record. In the 11-year history, Ryan has six 7-7 finishes and five 8-6 finishes. Aaron sits in 6th place thanks to a tiebreaker win over Jake. They cannot afford to lose a single game and need a lot to go their way, but there is still a chance. Jake is currently in 7th place and the Snake Chalice has not yet been claimed. Erik will have a chance to win the Chalice for the 4th time in the 6 years we’ve had it by defeating Jake in Week 11. There have been two 4-6 teams that ended up making the playoffs. Chase sits in 8th place at 3-7, and has already been eliminated from contention within the division. He also cannot pass Sean or Erik for a wildcard spot, but he does play Schweg again next week in Week 12. If Chase wins out and Schweg loses out and they end up tied at 7-7, and we assume that Aaron, Jake and Ryan all get no more than 6 wins, there is a chance that Chase could win a strength of victory tiebreaker to make the playoffs. Amazing, but it is still possible for Chase. Terrance (2-8) and Jarrett (1-9 have officially been eliminated from playoff contention. Both teams have missed the playoffs in 3 consecutive seasons. Terrance is looking to avoid being last place in back-to-back seasons, and Jarrett will try to avoid getting his 3rd last place season. Week 11 Preview Sean (9-1) vs Ryan (5-5) Sean leads the all-time series 8-7 and has won 2 games in a row. Sean already defeated Ryan in Week 2 this season. Game Rating: 14 Erik (7-3) vs Jake (4-6) Erik leads the all-time series 13-9-1 which includes last year’s victory over Jake in Robbie Bowl XI. Erik already defeated Jake in Week 5 this season. Game Rating: 11 Schweg (7-3) vs Aaron (4-6) Schweg leads the all-time series 12-7 and has won 5 of the last 6 matchups. Game Rating: 11 Jacob (8-2) vs Jarrett (1-9) Jacob leads the all-time series 10-9, and the teams have alternated wins for 7 consecutive games. These two teams met in the 2014 semifinals when Jacob defeated Jarrett 67-42 in the lowest scoring game in league history, and again in the 2019 3rd Place game which Jarrett won. Jacob already defeated Jarrett in Week 1, so if the streak continues, it would be Jarrett’s turn to win. Game Rating: 9 Chase (3-7) vs Terrance (2-8) Chase leads the all-time series 10-8. Their last game was in Week 9 of 2021 which Chase won, but prior to that, Terrance had won 5 straight games against Chase. These two teams met in the 2016 3rd Place game and Chase rolled to a 125-74 victory. Game Rating: 5
