The first quarter of the season came to an end this past week, and boy was it a week to behold. (Reminder: the Dog League is a custom fantasy football league run on NFL.com)
Leaping Girl
It was certainly the dawn of a new day in the Dog League for Leaping Girl last week, as Emma finally collected her first win of the season. Big days from Drew Brees, DeAndre Hopkins and Seahawks defense carried her to her first win over the Ridiculous Rascals, but it was not without its drawbacks. Namely, the injuries to running backs Ty Montgomery and Dalvin Cook. Emma will certainly have some big decisions to make going forward.
Week 4 Scoring(won against Ridiculous Rascals 98.62-86.98)
QB Drew Brees(19.02 points)
RB LeSean McCoy(10.8 points)
RB Ty Montgomery(2.8 points)
WR Dez Bryant(9.8 points)
WR DeAndre Hopkins(16.7 points)
TE Delanie Walker(5.1 points)
RB Dalvin Cook(11.4 points)
K Justin Tucker(3 points)
DEF Seattle Seahawks(20 points)
Tailwaggerz
Another big week from Tailwaggerz saw the near impossible take place, as they became the first team to topple the mighty Tug of War, continuing a two game winning streak. Points came from everywhere this week, with multiple players scoring in double digits, with the highlight being the performance of Le'Veon Bell. In fact, only two players(Zach Ertz and Stefon Diggs) finished in single digits, a sign of just how good this team was.
Week 4 Scoring(won against Tug of War 143.58-121.96)
QB Tom Brady(20.48 points)
RB Le'Veon Bell(30.6 points)
RB C.J. Anderson(11.2 points)
WR Jordy Nelson(19.5 points)
WR Stefon Diggs(9.8 points)
TE Zach Ertz(8.1 points)
WR Michael Thomas(14.9 points)
K Stephen Gostkowski(14 points)
DEF Jacksonville Jaguars(15 points)
Ridiculous Rascals
While the final score may have been close for the Ridiculous Rascals, the truth is that most of the team failed to get out of the starting blocks. In the inverse of Tailwaggerz, only two players got out of single digits, those being fellow Cowboys Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott. The bench doesn't really look promising either, and despite winning their first two games, the Rascals look to be in some big trouble.
Week 4 Scoring(lost to Leaping Girl 86.98-98.62)
QB Dak Prescott(22.58 points)
RB Melvin Gordon(2.9 points)
RB Ezekiel Elliott(25.9 points)
WR Odell Beckham(9 points)
WR Brandin Cooks(4.2 points)
TE Rob Gronkowski(8 points)
RB Jay Ajayi(5.4 points)
K Matt Bryant(5 points)
DEF Philadelphia Eagles(4 points)
Tug of War
The winning had to end eventually for Tug of War, and they fought all the way to the end. Losing receiver Julio Jones early on didn't help, and neither did an indifferent performance from Antonio Brown. On the flip side, running backs Todd Gurley and Leonard Fournette carried the load, combining for almost 50 points. In the end, it just wasn't to be for Tug of War.
Week 4 Scoring(lost to Tailwaggerz 121.96-143.58)
QB Aaron Rodgers(23.06 points)
RB Todd Gurley(27.5 points)
RB Kareem Hunt(12.1 points)
WR Julio Jones(3 points)
WR Antonio Brown(3.4 points)
TE Travis Kelce(17.4 points)
RB Leonard Fournette(20.5 points)
K Dan Bailey(6 points)
DEF Kansas City Chiefs(9 points)
All good things must come to an end, and there are no more undefeated teams in the Dog League. What's next for these teams? Check out the Week 5 preview, releasing tomorrow.
