#2 - Playing Riddickulously 6-3 (Last: 2) (This Week: O'Brees Wan Kenobi)
Playing Riddickulously pulled out a ridiculous come from behind victory against Silly Nannies in Week 9, keeping him at the #2 spot after what could have been a critical loss as the regular season in winding down. In Zac's 144-129 victory over Silly Nannies, Playing Riddickulously leaned on a huge Monday night game by recently acquired Russell Wilson (26 points) which was back up by his opponent Tyrod Taylor (25 points).

Twice now, Juan Too Many has pulled out single digit victories, and did so this week in a 178-169 win over O'Brees Wan Kenobi.

In addition, Aaron Rodgers (25 points) chipped in his share of points, which was the deciding factor in this weeks narrow victory. Looking for his 4th straight win, Juan Too Many will face off with Favre Dollar Footlong in Week 10's Rivalry Matchup.

Meanwhile, David Johnson (BYE), DeAndre Hopkins (BYE) and Rob Gronkowski (BYE) all missed out on the action this week leaving Gronkemon Go scrambling for points.

The race remains tight among the leagues top 6 teams, and the top spot is only a few wins away from Rudy Was Offsides. In Week 9, Luke welcomed back both Antonio Brown (21 points) and LeVeon Bell (12 points) but it was the 3TD performance of Latavius Murray (31 points) that left Team Prime in the dust in their key matchup. With Murray on a BYE in Week 10, Rudy Was Offsides will look to answer the call against Ballz Deep! in what could be the most pivotal matchup in the regular season for both teams.
#6 ↓ O'Brees Wan Kenobi 5-4 (Last: 5) (This Week: Playing Riddickulously)
O'Brees Wan Kenobi finished the weekend with a close, but disappointing loss against an over-achieving Juan Too Many team. With a chance to regain a spot atop the league standings, O'Brees Wan Kenobi fell short instead and now finds himself in an uphill battle for a playoff position. In his 178-169 loss to Juan Too Many, Juan was done in by a meager performance by Derek Carr (7 points) and a few missing pieces in Carlos Hyde (shoulder) and Lamar Miller (BYE). Week 10, will be the deciding factor for the rest of O'Brees Wan Kenobi's season. It is a must win situation against a talented Playing Riddickulously team.
#7 ↑ Favre Dollar Footlong 4-5 (Last: 9) (This Week: Juan Too Many)
Favre Dollar Footlong pulled off one of the biggest upsets of the regular season when he defeated Gronkemon Go in Week 9. The 190-122 put Nathan right back into the mix of the playoff race as he now is just 1.5 games back from the 6th and final playoff spot. Thanks to Mark Ingram (30 points) and a huge performance from Dak Prescott (23 points) Favre Dollar Footlong was able to cruise to victory over a struggling Gronkemon Go team. Week 10 will ultimately determine Favre Dollar Footlong's fate as he faces rival Juan Too Many. A win will propel him into the playoff chatter, while a loss will surely knock him into the consolation bracket.
#8 ↓ Silly Nannies 4-5 (Last: 6) (This Week: Team Prime)
In Week 9, Silly Nannies lost his grip on a win, and ended up falling to Playing Riddickulously by a score of 144-129 proving to be a crushing defeat, and severely hurting Silly Nannies chances of making the King of the Shack Playoffs. While many key players such as Jordan Reed (BYE) and Larry Fitzgerald (BYE) were missing in Week 9, it was the shocking performances of Jonathan Stewart (4 points) and Terrance West (3 points) that caused Silly Nannies to stumble against Playing Riddickulously. Jake will have to overcome Team Prime in the Week 10 rivalry matchup if he wants any chance of turning this season into something good.
#9 ↓ Team Prime 3-6 (Last: 8) (This Week: Silly Nannies)
While Team Prime is not out of the playoff hunt yet, he certainly is on the outside looking in. With a 3-6 record and another tough matchup ahead of him, it is survive and advance mode for Tyler the rest of the way. A 163-205 debacle against Rudy Was Offsides was due in large part to the lack of quarterbacks available to Team Prime. Add in the non-factor play of both Marvin Jones (1 point) and Christine Michael (6 points) and you come out with a brutal mismatch in points between Tyler and Luke. Week 10 will put Team Prime against Silly Nannies, both teams need a win, but only one will get it. It is do or die for Team Prime...go..get..it!
#10 Hernandez Hitmen 2-7 (Last: 10) (This Week: Gronkemon Go)
It will take a miracle for Hernandez Hitmen to win 3 games this season. Goodluck!
