SML Week 8 Player Of The Week & Power Rankings
The goal is simple. We want to recognize a player of the week each week of the regular season. Everyone always gives praise to the players who are dominating the league with their offensive skills, however we want to give praise to those who dominate the league on defense. Player Of The Week (POTW) is a defensive award. Each week DW will be handing out a POTW Award to the squad/team who allows the fewest points scored on defense against them. Simple right? Shut down your opponent for the week and receive praise from your peers while being honored for your stellar defense with an award. This award will be delivered weekly by Deathwish (DW).
***If there is a tie for the fewest points allowed by a team for the week, the first tiebreaker will be chosen by the team with the largest winning margin over their opponent. If a second tiebreaker is needed the award will go to the team that allowed the fewest total yards on defense.
Season 39 - Week 8
Player Of The Week
Woods
The Cleveland Browns (Woods) won the SML Week 8 POTW Award by defeating the New England Patriots (Matt) 34-13.
Another poor QB performance from Matt lines him up once again on the wrong side of the POTW tracks. 5 picks with QB Lock this week easily gives the POTW Award to Woods. Not a whole lot to report here offensively as it looks like Woods had a short playing field for most of the day with all the turnovers.
Congrats Woods on your first POTW Award of the season!
Matt, this loss puts you in the lead of the losers bracket with 2 total this season.

Week 8 Power Rankings:
Below I have my Prime-Time000 power rankings. The criteria used to create these rankings are as followed: What is your historical success in the SML? Have you had an extended history of winning or just short term success? If you have multiple winning seasons, you’re more likely to have some leeway - that said, if you lose a lot historically, you’re going to have to prove to me that you’re legit!!! I will also consider: How are you doing right now? Have you had any signature wins? How about signature losses? Let's take a look!
1. Ravens: Look, NYT is the best in the league. He has a chance to cement himself against Bomber now.
2. Jaguars: Bomber is doing his thing in the regular season. The new Dan Marino.
3. Broncos: DanHe is winning games, I’m proud of him. Soon - he will fall to the goat.
4. Vikings: Fazz is so nice, I’m surprised he hasn’t gifted someone a win yet… Then again it’s not playoffs yet.
5. Washington: QP is dominating the competition in electric fashion. I’m glad I don’t have to play him in the playoffs unless if we meet in the SB!
6. Dolphins: Pauly bounces back from a losing skid to upset the GOAT!
7. Colts: WASHED!
8. Giants: Rowin cuh, the young stunna doing his thing, happy to see him still in the top ten!
9. Rams: RD is winning a lot of games but he hasn’t been super impressive this season. Maybe a SB loss hangover?
10. Eagles: Wow look who’s back in the top ten!!!! Congrats Hedgeduck or whatever your name is! Now get some wins going!
