Play Crypto Sports: W6 Results & Scores

Run-DJC claimed 1st place in the Main Event—congrats! A big chunk of his points (~75) came from key performances by Love, Henry, and Bijan, with a monster week from the Lions defense to seal the deal. Mboy Menaces had a strong showing too, racking up 70+ points from Henry, Mixon, and Kittle, but was held back by underwhelming games from Saquon and Cousins. Another big story here is #3 Smokin Aces, who managed a solid 3rd place finish despite a goose egg from TE D. Goedert.

PandasMonkey comfortably secured 1st place in the NoCap contest, thanks to a powerhouse lineup with six players scoring 20+ points. Footballaz came in 2nd with a more balanced roster, but the difference was clear—only one of his players managed to hit the 20-point mark, which gave PandasMonkey the edge.

Garbage Time had a monster week, finishing 1st place in the Sunday Special without a single player scoring under double digits in fantasy points. Those kinds of weeks are always fun to keep looking at. Even his lowest scorer, the Steelers D, still put up 13+ points. Croswell River Dogs had a similar performance, but the key difference was that Garbage Time had 4 players with 20+ points, while Croswell only had 1. That was the difference.

This might be the closest contest we’ve ever seen! Actually, no need to say "might"—we ended with a TIE for 1st place between n1stunnor and DakInABox! The gap between 1st and 10th place was only 4 points, which is insane and funny. The winning teams featured the Eagles, Buccaneers, Steelers, and Chargers. Run-DJC nearly grabbed another win, finishing just 1 point behind in 3rd place. He also had the Eagles and Buccaneers, but got 18 points from the Lions and only 5 from the Falcons.

New Contests Are Up!

  • Main Event - W7

  • No Cap - W7

  • Sunday Special - W7

  • Let’s Play Catch [this is 4 WR’s]

NOTE: Lineup locks are the same as usual — 15 minutes before the kickoff of the first batch of games on Sunday. HOWEVER, it's important to note that Week 7 includes the Jaguars and Pats at 9:30AM EST, so if you're submitting a lineup last minute, you won't be able to select any players from that game or, of course, the TNF game as well, which is Denver @ New Orleans.
