Match-Up Build-Up Week 10 (Rivalry Week #2)

A massive rivalry week docket is headlined by 1v2 and 3v4 match-ups. It's make or break for everyone in the MFFL.


1. The Perpetual Dynasty (8-1) vs Imposing Monstrosity (6-3)
The two best and most consistent teams so far this season lock horns in rivalry week to settle the score.
TPD continues to pile up wins. Last week they survived even while scoring well below the rest of the winning teams. Their very soft schedule this season has helped their current streak and has been a massive reverse in fortune compared to season's past. Still, they are 3rd in total points and have been the most consistent team all season. This week will be a tall task however, with Watson, Hopkins, and Fournette all on bye. Three teams behind them in the standings are only two games back in the rankings, meaning a loss would only put them a game up on the competition, even with their unbelievable record. Things can get crazy real quick in the MFFL and TPD will look to manage the hell out of their roster this week and secure a surprise victory. Helping them is the fact that their gameday managing this season has remained strong just like in season's past.
Stros is dominating people. Wilson, Evans, Hill, McCaffrey are juggernauts right now. It is tough to find a weakness on this roster. A win this week could signal their claim to be considered the top dog in the league currently. It is by far their best season in franchise history, and they are unquestioned title contenders.
Even with TPD doing TPD things, Stros rolls into this match-up as pretty large favorites. TPD will have to pull a rabbit out of a hat or hope Stros finally slows down. Either way this is a huge game in the MFFL and these top two teams will look to put on a show.

2. GrabbingThemTDs (6-3) vs Unstopa-Bo (6-3)
TDs changed their name in the offseason to signal a new found direction of their franchise. They will no longer request a glimpse, instead they reach for the full monty. They have remained true to their word and put together perhaps the best season in franchise history. They are heating up at the right moment, scoring over 140 in two consecutive games. They must of had a good draft because they have only made 5 moves all season, the lowest mark in the league. They are chasing TPD in the East, but are well ahead of the other east combatants. Squaring off against Bo, in unquestionably the most fierce and smack talk driven rivalry, they will look to put together a strong performance and further cement their claim to a playoff spot.
UB is heating up as well but lost a close game last week to fall slightly in the rankings. They have relied on whole team efforts all season long and have yet to show a dip in production. This team always comes to play when they see TDs in front of them. Another Chipotle bowl could be in order for this week, double meat of course.

To have any chance at the playoffs, it looks like The Morgans, Tavon, and McCoy all have to win this week. One team will likely be eliminated as McCoy plays Tavon. Loco and LFB are in better position than all three of those teams but still need crucial victories to keep pace with the top 4. Things will get settled on Sunday and as stated earlier, it is make or break time.
