Evan's Jacobs Jewel

Week 12: Fancy Football VI

Crowning the Champion

Week 12 of Fancy Football was nothing short of exhilarating as Evan Devoe dazzled, clinching the crown with a commanding 189.1 points. His glorious victory was powered by an inspired selection of Josh Jacobs, who erupted for an outstanding 51.3 points. This clever choice overshadowed his lukewarm investment in Mark Andrews, who failed to meet expectations. Evan's strategic acumen and daring picks not only earned him the top spot but also broke his losing streak, propelling him up the league standings.

Almost There

Lars Rikardsen claimed the second spot with 151.7 points, a fine effort aided by the glowing performance of Josh Jacobs. Though his lineup took a tumble with Trey McBride, who underwhelmed this week, Lars managed to get back on the winning track. Bryan Daley rounded out the top three, finishing razor-close to Lars at 151.1 points thanks to a brilliant play on Garrett Wilson. Despite an ill-fated bet on Davante Adams, Bryan showcased resilience with a well-rounded lineup.

Hits and Misses

Plenty of eyes were on Jeff Wilson Jr., the most popular pick this week. However, he fell short of heavy expectations, while less-picked stars like Miles Sanders and Trevor Lawrence proved to be goldmines for those who took the risk. On the flip side, fantasy mainstays saw their shares dwindle, with James Robinson and Alec Pierce yielding zero points, serving as costly selections for some.

League Movement

This week's drama saw Chris Chmielewski snatch the season lead, extending his winning streak to three weeks, while Jake Chrystal moved up a notch to second with another strong finish. Former leader Ed Ulreich struggled to regain form, now in third, trailing the frontrunners amid a rare two-week slide. Meanwhile, Evan Devoe's magnificent Week 12 jumped him into the middle of the pack, showing significant momentum as the league approaches the home stretch.
