Good morning everyone, welcome to the Week 11 Pot Cakes Dynasty League Recap. We will have a little different format. We will look at the games, one good thing, one bad thing, one surprising thing (good or bad). Quick in and out. Dr. Tilt’s picks, the Playoff chances and scenarios for each team, and then finish with the Week 12 power rankings. Sound good? I hope so because playoffs are veins. Let’s look at the recaps
The Game of the Week.
PeePaw played Pistol.
v.
This was a big playoff game, and it did not disappoint. PeePaw loves Davante Adams, he had 20. Miles Sanders only put up 7.6, and is a letdown so far but hopefully is figuring it out. Surprising thing is that the rooks both went off CeeDee added 19 and Justin Jefferson added a sweet 16. Pistol had Travis Kelce put up a jumpman. Allen Lazard underperformed in his return game and should bounce back but it might be too late. Surprising thing for Pistol was the RB play, Hunt only had relevance from a TD and Hines lost his touches to Taylor, which makes sense but was not what had been happening. PeePaw wins 148.15 to 122.15.
Mush’s Mongrels marched on over to Daddy Wombat.
v.
This was one of the few tough games Mush and the Mongrels had on the schedule. Mush had a good 17 out of Diontae Johnson. Mush had a goose egg out of Hollywood Brown. The surprising thing was the lack of competence from Mush playing Kerryon Johnson over Cylde and Dobbins, a move that cost him the week. Daddy Wombat had a solid 25 total out of Mecalf and Claypool. Gurley only had 3 points. The Surprising thing is the lack of depth Daddy Wombat has, their bench is very bare and that may be an issue in the playoffs. Daddy Wombat’s starters are better than everyone else and wins 106.55 to 99.1
Trashman tookon Teach.
v.
Trashman is in full tank. Curtis Samuel went off again, proving to be the guy to play if CMC is not in the game. Jarvis Landry is bad at football and the Browns win, but they do it ugly. The surprising thing is that Trashman is limited in his options. He played Kenny G, but his only option would have been a longshot play at Cam Akers, scored 8.4 points. Tough week, tough year for Trashman. Teach had a big win. Tyreek Hill went off for 9 plus 10. Tee Higgins only had 4 points. The surprising thing is that Teach started Chris Carson, when everyone knew he was out. Teach won 129.65 to 104.7.
Touchdown Guy v. Bruce
v.
Touchdown Guy took on Bruce. TDG made the million dollar move by trading for Adam Thielen, he put up 28.3. Hurst hurt and put up a goose egg. The surprising thing was the move for Kirk Cousins that had himself a day, 34 points. Bruce is bad again. Zeke is back? He added 18 points. Matty Ice was ice cold putting up only 9.5 points. The surprising thing is the Willie Snead start, if you have to start Willie Snead, you are probably going to be in last place. TDG wins 162 to 118.8.
CrossFit is headed on over to Bottom Bunk.
v.
CrossFit and Bottom Bunk went at it this week. CrossFit had a night with Cooper Kupp. Rex Burkhead is hurt just like the rest of CrossFit’s RBs. The surprising thing is how bad CrossFit’s bench is. His entire bench put up 2.65 total points. Going into the playoffs that is not a good look the whole bench thing. Bottom Bunk made the move that is now outlawed. Taysom Hill put up 28.55 points. Darrell Henderson added 1.9 points to the mix and is a big old bust. The surprising thing is how good B.B.’s players are doing on other teams, is B.B. the Adam Gase of the league. The record says otherwise. B.B. wins 152.95 to 118.5.
Batman battled JonnyDIII’s Joyful Demons.
v.
This was a battle for draft positioning. JD3 has both picks, so he wants the picks to be as early as possible. Batman had the big time Bob game, Bob woods added almost 25 points. Juju turned his ankle on a flag and turned in only 3.9 points. The surprising thing is Nelson Agholor, he put up 18. JonnyDIII’s guy Keenan Allen put up 26.5 points. The bad thing is the tight end room, Hooper had 4.8 points and Logan Thomas added 1.8 points. The surprising thing is JD3 playing Mahomes over Herbert, Herbert puts up 40 every time Mahomes plays the Raiders. JonnyDIII won 155.7 to 127.74.
Now we have some picks recap.

Now the Playoff Pictures.
Eliminated: Bruce, JonnyDIII, Batman, Trashman.
Playoff Bound: Daddy Wombat
Everyone else is up in the air.
#1 Daddy Wombat 9-2
D.W. has Bruce then Touchdown Guy. 1 win and he locks up the 1 seed. D.W. would have to lose twice and get outscored by a total of about 80 points to drop out of the 1 seed, CrossFit would have to win out and be +80. Daddy Wombat is a 97% lock for playoffs.
#2 CrossFit 7-4
CrossFit is a win to get in. CrossFit has Trashman then Pistol. I like his odds of beating Trashman and getting in. If CrossFit loses out he would have to be outscored by roughly 100 points, by Bottom Bunk, PeePaw and Touchdown Guy, B.B. would have to win 1, PeePaw win out, and TDG win out. Teach also would have to win, which means Week 12 TDG beats Batman, B.B. beats Pistol, PeePaw beats Teach, Mush beats JD3 and Trashman beats CrossFit. Then week 13, Mush beats Batman or loses but has points over CrossFit which is about a 200 point difference, TDG beats Daddy Wombat, PeePaw beats Trashman, Teach beats B.B. and Teach, B.B., TDG, and PeePaw all outscore CrossFit.A lot has to play out for that, CrossFit has an 80% chance of playoffs.
#3 Teach 7-4
Teach has PeePaw then Bottom Bunk. Teach can win to get in too. If Teach beats PeePaw he’s in. If Teach loses then wins, PeePaw and Touchdown Guy would have to win out, and Bottom Bunk would have to outscore Teach. Mush would also have to win out or win and outscore Teach, which is unlikely. If Teach loses out, meaning Bottom Bunk beats him and PeePaw beats him, PeePaw would either win out to get in, or win the one against Teach and outscore Teach to get in. TDG would then have to win out to force Teach out or win one and outscore Teach to get in. Mush would need to win one. This scenario would eliminate Teach. Teach has a 63% chance of playoffs.
#4 Bottom Bunk 7-4
Bottom Bunk wins out he’s in. B.B. has Pistol then Teach. B.B. is out if TDG or PeePaw go 2-0 and he goes 1-1, and the 1 loss is to Teach. If B.B. beats Teach he’s in, as PeePaw cannot catch him in wins if PeePaw loses to Teach, or if Teach loses to PeePaw, then Teach loses to Bottom Bunk, B.B. is +1. It gets interesting if B.B. loses to Teach in Week 13. B.B. could have lost Week 12 and still get in if PeePaw goes 1-1 and loses the the point advantage, TDG loses out, or Pistol loses week 13 to CrossFit, or Mush loses out. If B.B. wins, then loses, he needs Mush to go 1-1. If Mush goes 2-0 then B.B. just needs either TDG or PeePaw to lose 1. B.B. nightmare scenario is that he beats Pistol, loses to Teach, PeePaw goes 2-0, TDG goes 2-0, and Mush goes 2-0, as far as points go, B.B. would be out. I give B.B. a 50% chance of making the playoffs.
#5 Mush 7-4
Mush should be rooting for Teach this week as that will help his odds a lot. Mush needs to win out. Or Mush can go 1-1 but also would need Touchdown Guy or PeePaw to go 1-1. Mush moves up in rankings if he wins out, and Teach goes 1-1 or Bottom Bunk goes 1-1, or CrossFit goes 1-1. Mush would need, Teach to lose to PeePaw then beat Bottom Bunk. That would solve it for him, CrossFit would have to lose to Trashman or Pistol. Ideally Mush would win out and Pistol would too. That is bump for Mush. Mush also moves up if him and Teach win out. Mush’s worst case scenario is if he goes 1-1, and TDG wins 2, PeePaw wins 2 including 1 over Teach, Teach loses to PeePaw and Beats B.B., and B.B. beats Pistol and loses to Teach. That would kick Mush out despite winning one of two. Mush having such a low point total cannot feel good, at least until he looks at his schedule playing Team 10 and Team 11. Mush has a 45% chance of making the playoffs.
#6 Touchdown Guy 6-5
Touchdown Guy just has to keep pace wins and loses with PeePaw, he has the point advantage by 50. He also has to stay +1 on Pistol. If TDG goes +1 compared to Teach, Bottom Bunk, or Mush, he jumps them in ranking due to points as well. TDG has Batman this week which is a must win as beating Daddy Wombat to end the season will be very difficult. TDG is a 50 point underdog to CrossFit, so CrossFit would have to go -1 to TDG and put up little points. TDG wins out his playoff chances go up, he goes 1-1, then he needs help, 0-2, he needs a lot of help. I have TDG’s chance of making the playoffs at 38%.
#7 PeePaw 6-5
PeePaw is in a good spot because he is in the driver’s seat. He plays Teach, then Trashman. PeePaw is down 50 points to Touchdown Guy and is up 6 points but down a game to Bottom Bunk. PeePaw is in if TDG loses out, PeePaw loses out but scores more, pending Pistol losing 1 game. PeePaw is in if him and TDG go 1-1 but outscores TDG, or PeePaw wins one more than TDG over the next two games. PeePaw is in if he wins one and B.B. loses out. Same applies to Teach, but PeePaw needs to add 4 points. The head to head matchup this week, if PeePaw wins should check two of the boxes for him. If PeePaw win one more game than Mush, PeePaw is in Mush is out. Same applies to CrossFit but the point total is too much and least likely. I give PeePaw a 25% chance of making the playoffs.
#8 Pistol 5-6
Pistol has just a bit of hope remaining. Pistol has to beat Bottom Bunk and then CrossFit. Pistol’s best odds are for PeePaw and Touchdown Guy to lose out. Pistol wins 2, and PeePaw and TDG lose two each, he is in. Pistol is about 75 points behind TDG and 40 behind PeePaw. In the event that PeePaw or TDG go 1-1, he would have to outscore them. The next best scenario is that Pistol wins out and Mush loses out, Pistol having 70 point advantage. That means Mush loses to JonnyDIII and Batman. Pistol could also get in by TDG losing out, Teach losing out, and Pistol outscoring both, Teach has 40 points on Pistol. In that situation PeePaw is in as he beat Teach. Bottom Bunk is also a long shot for Pistol, assuming Pistol beats B.B., B.B. would then have to lose against Teach, this means Teach is in. Pistol would also have to outscore B.B. by 30. And either Mush loses out, PeePaw loses 1 (or more) and is outscored by Pistol, or TDG loses 1 (or more) and is outscored by Pistol. This is the same situation, but if CrossFit loses out, Pistol would have to outscore CrossFit by 150 points. And then he would need PeePaw, TDG, Mush, B.B. or Teach to collapse. Pistol has a 5% chance of making the playoffs.
Well, I hope I got that right, lot of moving parts and doing it all from my head. Let me know if I missed anything, I know I’ll hear about it in the group chat.
Now that that is out of the way, we have the Week 12 Power Rankings.
I’m breaking the rules. Trashman stays at the bottom. I need him to have some fire in his belly to win this week. Mush didn’t score 100 points, but this is the playoff picture, so we will keep this in mind for the 2021 power rankings. Daddy Wombat is untouchable. Two brains are better than one.
That does it for Week 11. I will see you tomorrow for the Week 12 Preview. Should be a quick preview with the holiday weekend, with that in mind I hope you and yours have a better tomorrow.
Let’s Go!
