Week 15 Match-Up Build-Up

PLAYOFFS!

1. Perpetual Dynasty (11-3) VS 4. Advantageous Morgans (7-6-1)
     Two of the best teams all year will throw down in the first round of the playoffs. The Morgans are Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. They stumbled out of the gates starting (0-2). They then won 6 out of 8 games largely because of some beneficial trades. Now they crawl into the playoffs with only 1 win in their last 4 tries. However, that one victory came last week when they scored the most points in the league. It is the perfect time to gain some momentum. They will have to continue that momentum if they want to play for a championship. Standing in their way is Perpetual Dynasty. PD has won eight straight games. They scored the most points in regular season league history. They swept their division. Their 11-3 record is the same record they achieved last year. Few forget what happened in the playoffs last year. PD had not scored below 143 points in three straight games before the first round. Then disaster struck, they scored 106 points in a losing effort to The Real McCoy. The loss crippled PD emotionally. They now have a chance at redemption. Is history doomed to repeat?

2. La Flama Blanca (8-6) VS 3. Weeden and Weep (8-6)
     A rivalry rematch from a week ago is just the sort of playoff match-up managers yearn for. W&W went from last place to the playoffs in one season. Their remarkable turn around was unexpected, unexplained, and unforgettable. They may have used all of their energy just to reach this point. Adrian Peterson is doubtful, Tom Brady is without Gronk, and Josh Gordon can not be expected to maintain this insane pace. We will see how much W&W has left in the tank. La Flama is getting healthier. His team reminds many managers of The Real McCoy from a season ago. La Flama got his chance to compete in the playoffs, now he has an opportunity to accomplish much more. What he is probably most thankful for in this holiday season is the fact that he gets to play W&W in the first round rather than PD or the Morgans. However, Weeden plays the role of underdog quite well. La Flama will not take him or Josh Gordon lightly.
