Who Is Leading The NFFC After Week 13?

[Greg Ambrosius]

Congrats to Silas Dain for winning Week 13 in the NFFC Gridiron League. He becomes the seventh different owner to win a weekly prize through our first 13 weeks of competition. Pretty cool. Bryan Steimetz leads the way with three wins and he leads in total points through Week 13. KJ Duke is second, followed by Mark Moyer. Good luck all during the last three weeks of the season.

I think this is the highest percentage of teams in the history of the NFFC Classic that has won both the h2h title and the Total Points title after the regular season. This year we had 12 of 18 teams (67%) win both ends of the league crowns to walk away with the $7,000 first place prize and the title after the regular season is done. That means that only six Classic league titles are still up for grabs. Good job everyone.

Here are some interesting facts about the NFFC Classic in 2014:

** 12 of 18 leagues had one team with best h2h record and most total points (67%).
** Teams that didn't finish first in total points finished 2nd (one team), 3rd (two teams), 4th (two teams) and 6th (one team).
** 7 of 18 leagues finished with h2h ties. They included six leagues with two teams tied for first and one league with three teams tied for first.
** League champions right now came from nine different draft spots. League champs drafted from the No. 5 spot (2 teams), No. 7 (1), No. 8 (2 teams), No. 9 (2 teams), No. 10 (1), No. 11 (1), No. 12 (1), No. 13 (1) and No. 14 (1).
** Teams that are in league playoffs drafted from the following spots: No. 1 (1), No. 3 (1), No. 4 (1), No. 6 (1), No. 7 (1), No. 8 (1), No. 12 (2 teams), No. 13 (1), and No. 14 (3 teams).

Here are your Classic League champs and winners of $7,000, and those leagues still up for grabs:

I believe last year there was a message board post of the roster breakdowns for the primetime championship round (e.g. how many teams had Aaron Rodgers, how many had Drew Brees, etc.). That sure would be interesting to see! Any industrious souls out there?

Congrats to Robert Zarzycki for becoming only the second owner in NFFC Primetime history to lead his team to a perfect season. His team went 13-0, joining Jack Haan who did this in 2012. Z-Man's team finished 10th in the Primetime in total points as well:
10. Zmen4 Primetime Online Aug. 27 7 ET 13-0-0 2035.50 12 Robert Zarzycki

In the Rotowire Fantasy Football Online Championship, two teams went undefeated at 13-0. They included Austin Martin and Andrew Miller. Here's where they finished in the overall points standings:

3. OLC1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Online Championship Aug 31 10:00 pm Lg.10294 13-0-0 2189.60 9 Austin Martin
101. DA Football Online Championship Aug 15 10:00 pm Lg.9860 13-0-0 1995.00 8 Andrew Miller

Congratulations to all 3 owners for their perfect seasons and best of luck in the Championship Round of those playoffs.

There are 19 league titles still up for grabs in the NFFC Primetime right now. Out of our 39 NFFC Primetime leagues, 20 teams (just 51%) had the best h2h record and most total points. That means 20 owners have already earned the $6,500 league prize for this contest. Here are some interesting facts and then the listings of each league winner and the teams still battling for league titles:

** 20 of 39 owners won the $6,500 league prize by having best h2h record and most total points in their league (51%)

** Of those owners who had best h2h record but didn't have most total points, they finished 2nd in their league in points (7 teams), 3rd (5 teams), 4th (2 teams), 5th (1 team), 7th (3 teams) and 11th (1 team).

** There were 12 ties in the h2h competition among the 39 leagues. Seven leagues had two teams tied for best h2h record, three leagues had three teams tied with best h2h record and two leagues had four teams tied with best h2h record.

** Every single draft spot produced a league champion to this point, which is pretty cool. Here's a look at where the 20 current league champs drafted from:

No. 1 - 1 league champion
No. 2 - 1 league champion
No. 3 - 1 league champion
No. 4 - 1 league champion
No. 5 - 4 league champions
No. 6 - 1 league champion
No. 7 - 2 league champions
No. 8 - 2 league champions
No. 9 - 2 league champions
No. 10 - 1 league champion

Congrats to Glenn Lowy for winning $40,000 in the NFFC Platinum League. Glenneration X won the H2H title and $20,000 with a 9-4 record as he won this week in a big matchup. His team won their last four games to finish 9-4. Glenneration X also won the $20,000 for most points as he edged the team of David Hubbard/Nelson Sousa/Derek Pierson by 65.05 points. Congrats to Glenn.

The four teams that qualified for the NFFC Platinum's Championship Round were Glenn Lowy, David Hubbard, Stephen Stith and Peter Berall. We pay the Top 3 teams here, so good luck all. And there is a prize in the Consolation Round, so good luck to those eight teams competing there as well.

Here's a look at the Top 4 teams:

Las Vegas Sept. 6, League 2: 9-4, 11th in points (Matthew Bayley best h2h, James Milkowski most points)

Best record with 11th most pts..has this ever been done before in NFFC? Bayley must have some kinda voodoo doll 4 whoever he faces...Yikes!

[Glenneration X]

Thanks Greg, Wayne, and Frank. I really appreciate the kind words.

Looking at the loaded squads Nelson/Dave/Derek, Peter, and Stephen have assembled that I'll be facing off against during the next 3 weeks, I feel real fortunate to have already cashed. It'll be a war to walk away with another dime against these teams.

Good luck Guys. I'm sure it'll be a tense but extremely exciting next few weekends.
