Week 6 Recap

🏆 Rondy Royal Rumble – Week 6 Recap

🧟‍♂️ nWo4LIFE vs. Team Cady

This was a desperation bowl. A must-win. A fantasy duel between two franchises teetering on the edge of becoming “just playing for the bonuses.”

DJ, ever the optimist, rolled out yet another experimental RB lineup — that’s three straight weeks of different RB combos, like a mad scientist mixing questionable potions.

Unfortunately, this week’s mixture once again resulted in a small explosion and a larger disappointment.

Rob, meanwhile, took the more traditional approach: wait until Monday night and unleash hell. With a 32-point mountain to climb, Jayden Daniels, Bijan Robinson, and Drake London each just shrugged and said, “I got this.” Bijan and London each cleared the 32-point hurdle solo — Daniels just iced the corpse.

Rob climbs back to 3-3. DJ slinks to 2-4, still swiping on waiver wire RBs like he’s looking for true love.

🚫 X Gon’ Gibbs It To Ya vs. Man DIESEL

The less said, the better... but we’ll say a little anyway.

What’s happened to Jason’s team?  His QB, Patrick Mahomes, accounted for 36% of his total points. To put that stat into perspective,  Mahomes was also the only player in his lineup to break in to double digits.   The other 9 players in his lineup averaged just 6.3 points.   His Defense was his 6^th highest scoring player. It’s a miracle he made it to 89 points.

Chad had this one wrapped up way before the Monday night games. Lucky for him, because Josh Allen looked lost out there.

Chad looking strong at 4-2, in 2^nd place. Jason’s starting to do the electric slide, falling to 6^th with a 2-4 record.

⚔️Any Given Sundae vs The BIG Show

Playoff vibes. No mercy. Two heavyweights collide

This one mattered. Two playoff-caliber squads. One scoreboard. One kicker named Dicker.

Adam showed up locked and loaded. Jalen Hurts, Jonathan Taylor, Ja'Marr Chase, BTJ, and even Trey McBride dropped 20+ each. And then, of course, Dicker the Kicker went full beast mode with 17

Chris wasn’t about to get steamrolled, though. Josh Jacobs and JSN went scorched earth with 30+ point bombs, dragging The BIG Show back into the fight. By Monday, it was anyone’s game. Chris needed 37 from the Bills trio: James Cook, Khalil Shakir, and Matt Prater.

But Buffalo had other plans. Terrible ones. Cook was held to a simmer. Shakir disappeared. And Prater needed binoculars to find field goal range.

Adam climbs to 4-2, locking down 3rd. Chris falls to 3-3, clinging to a playoff spot like it's the last donut at the draft party.

🪦Tua-Tang Clan vs Tua 3, 4 Concussions

Oh boy….Andy’s RB room exploded. Achane, Dowdle, and Skattebo  each dropped 30+ — a triple nuclear event. Matt was cooked before Sunday dinner.

...or so we thought.

 The rest of Andy’s team did not live up to the moment. His quarterback scored less than 1 point. His kicker was his 5th highest scorer. But by Monday night, ESPN gave Andy a 99% win probability, it seemed it was a lock.

Andy left the door open Monday night with WR Rome Odunze coughing up just 5 points. Enter: D’Andre Swift. The hope. The dream. The RB2 turned savior. 25 points from Swift was more than Matt could’ve dreamt of.  But that’s more of a knock against Matt’s dull imagination than a praise of Swift’s performance.

BUT WAIT — plot twist. In a move that will surprise absolutely no one, Matt forgot to remove Quentin Johnston from his lineup, who was ruled out 90 minutes before kickoff. QJ sat there like a decorative plant, soaking up starter energy while producing nothing.

Matt had four eligible bench players. Any one of them = win. Instead, he let chaos reign. And for that? The Farley Rule has been invoked. A $10 fine has been applied to Matt's league dues.

Andy survives, gifted a win and a 5-1 record. Matt collapses to 1-5, still holding the basement keys. This game will haunt him like a ghost with spreadsheets.

💸 Bonus Round

💯 Weekly High Score 

Adam wins this week with a modest 163 points, the 2^nd lowest total to win so far, but his 2^nd time winning this bonus in 2025.

🧼 Biggest Blowout

No change here

🏃 A Win’s a Win 

We’ve got a new sheriff in Mediocre Town. Chad wins with just 114 points, thanks to Jason’s unholy 89-point outing.He now leads the “Win Ugly” leaderboard — wear it with pride, king.

☠️ Survivor Pool Watch 

Heading into Week 6, five teams were within 20 points for lowest combined score. But Jason bellyflopped so hard (not even cracking 100), the decision was easy. Jason is officially eliminated from Survivor. Please collect your emotional support beer.

📉 Final Thoughts

If Week 6 taught us anything, it's this:

• You don’t need stars, you need starters.

• Waiver wire gold doesn’t mean a thing if you bench it.

• Matt can almost win with an incomplete lineup, which means anything is possible. And terrifying.

  
  

Set your lineups. Check your injuries. Bench your ghosts. Week 7’s coming for your soul.
