Movers & Shakers QFL3 Week 5

Important milestones abound in QFL3. The Morons are proudly the only remaining undefeated team in the QFL nation, and Paul got his first win to ensure no team is winless. Also, commish Radeck informed the league that he’ll be completely removed and out of the country until next Saturday, entrusting the league to Seth and Rishi. Who will save us now?

#1 Balti-Morons — (5-0; 73.66 avg. points) For the first time this season Foster didn’t put up a monster game. In fact, all 3 RBs failed to eclipse double digits, but the Morons were helped by a solid game by newly acquired Eli Manning and quality CHI defense (The only thing quality about that game…)

#2 Qutane — (3-2; 80.32 avg. points) Radeck may have picked the best week to leave the country. Why? Because this team is the proud owner of the PIT defense. The point total after PIT demolishes CLE may be enough to carry this team outright. It’s needed since Schuab and MJD have struggled, and Finley is out for a long while.

#3 Qtopia — (3-2; 75.48 avg. points) Whoa. Almost made it to 100 pts, and would’ve been only the 2nd team this year to get there. Romo seemingly has another shootout on his hands vs. MIN, but how many more sacks until Romo gets hurt and forces this team to get a real backup QB?

#4 Raging Alcoholics – (3-2; 73.57 avg. points) Dan started the best players on his roster but still lost. Of note, best players is not some hokey phrase in this instance. The 9 bench players put up a combined .06 points. Granted, the bench was full of bye weeks and injuries, but it’s something special. Can RA defeat the undefeated this week?

#5 Vote Quimby – (3-2; 71.47 avg. points) Make it 3 wins in a row. If my prediction holds true, Eric is going to need the most out of his players this week going against Radeck and that PIT defense. Will the rare (Has it ever been run in QFL3?) 3RB/2TE set prove explosive?

#6 Golden Smoot – (3-2; 72.89 avg. points) Starting a healthy McCoy over Mike Bell would’ve been smarter, but it still wouldn’t have been enough. Who would’ve thought the ARZ defense would put up 29 points!? Good thing Richman has 3QBs, because Palmer is looking like a bust.

#7 Revenge of the Cox – (3-2; 67.41 avg. points) What looked to be a tough week due to injuries and bye weeks just a while ago (Kolb #2 in Philly, Moss & Brady on bye) turned out to be no biggie. Kolb actually starts with Vick out, and the Moss trade keeps him active for the week. Well, it wouldn’t have mattered, even without Kolb and Moss Chase would’ve still won.

#8 Quickly Eliminated – (2-3; 72.02 avg. points) MNF was a nail biter, and Tom went from winning to losing after not getting enough out of LT to fend of Paul.

#9 Ron Mexiq – (2-3; 69.82 avg. points) Dan refused to pick up a bye week kicker. Did he have the foresight to know that he’d get blown out and it wouldn’t matter?

#10 The Russing Russians – (1-4; 64.66 avg. points) It should’ve been a lot closer last week, but none of the WR/TEs came to play. A solid game from Rice, but not many points from anybody else. Hot defensive pickup STL proved ugly with negative points.

#11 Goonie Goo Goo – (1-4; 66.21 avg. points) Finally gets win #1. But what was with starting LeGarrette Blount? With Johnson potentially down this week, Holmes coming off suspension couldn’t have happened at a better time. If Lynch can do anything out in SEA it’ll greatly help this team.

#12 Al Toon All Stars – (1-4; 56.95 avg. points) The struggles of GB and Rodgers have really hurt this team. No player eclipsed 10 points last week, on the way to a league low 40 point performance. With DeAngelo Williams on bye, and Pierre Thomas hurt, Mike doesn’t have an active RB to play this week.
