Silent Division logjam; Band Aids lead in ST

Spread Beaters rally to beat WTNE and force a three-way tie for first; Matt Pringle's team is a game back of the leaders

Russell Wilson was back to his old, scrambling-like-a-madman self on Monday Night, helping the Spread Beaters rally past WTNE.

This is going to be short and sweet until I have more time later today. There's a three-way tie for first in the Silent Division as the Beaters upset WTNE, the Rangers lost and the Invaiders shockingly defeated the Recliners. All three teams are now 6-4 and tied for the lead. The Beaters, who used yet another quarterback (Russell Wilson) to rally on Monday night past WTNE, are a game back at 5-5. Only the Recliners are seemingly out of it at 3-7.

Over in the ST division, the Band Aids tried to bolster their roster late on Saturday with a trade with their opposition, the Tirades. And then watched as the trade was not approved by game time on Sunday (so long, Brandon Aiyuk's 11 points and 8 more from Gus Edwards). No need to worry, Bob, your team still plowed through the hapless Tirades with the highest score of the week and improved to a league-best 7-2.

The Saddles remain a game back at 6-3 after handling the upstart Gerbils, who looked in position for an upset early on Sunday. The Packers lurk two games back at 5-5 after disposing of the Rangers.

BAND AIDS 129, TIRADES 93: There have not been many games this season when the Tirades have come close to the century mark, and this was a poor time to accomplish that feat as the Band Aids got double-figures scoring from almost everyone on their roster en rout to a victory that saw them improve their season record to 7-2. Recently aquired QB Josh Dobbs of Minnesota led the way with 24 points and keeper WR Amon-Ra St. Brown added 21. Only TE Mark Andrews (4) and kicker Matt Gay (6) didn't score 10 or more (they they did combine for 10). QB Brock Purdy led the Tirades with 24.

SPREAD BEATERS 109, WTNE 102: Brian Robinson (we know, who?) scored 20, TE T.J. Hockenson had 19 and the aforementioned Wilson had 18 on Monday night to rally the Spread Beaters to the victory. QB Justin Herbert led WTNE with 27.

PACKERS 109, RANGERS 86: WR Mike Evans and the 49ers defense both scored 20 and WR Ja'Marr Chase had 19 as the Packers and commissioner Jeff won the battle of the Lamberts. John's Rangers were led by WR Keenan Allen with 29.

INVAIDERS 102, RECLINERS 57: Cee Dee Lamb led a balanced scoring attach with 28 points and no other teammate managed more than 13 but the Invaiders nonetheless cruised to a win over the hapless Recliners, who would have barely scored anything had it not been for QB C. J. Stroud, who had 20.

SADDLES 96, GERBILS 92: Blayze Hanson's Saddles are in ride-or-die mode with QB Dak Prescott, and this was a "ride" week as Prescott scored 38 points to lead the way past the upstart Gerbils, who are still looking for their second win of the season. Only RB Jonathan Taylor (12) and K Evan McPherson (13) scored more than 10 points for the Saddles, who improved to 6-3. QB Joe Burrow's 19 points led the Gerbils, who also got 17 from TE Gorge Kittle. Go Niners.
