Good morning everyone, welcome to the Pot Cakes Dynasty League Week 13 Recap. What a weekend. We put one game as the GOTW and teased a second one. Both hit. Shoutout to the Commissioner for this schedule. I receive a lot of negative comments about how bad the league is run/structured and just general mean things about our commissioner, but this week, tip of the cap. Let’s get into our GOTW, games, Professor Pickum and a closer look at the playoff shake up.
Game of the week.
v.
Batman v. PeePaw
This one delivered. Batman had a 10 point lead heading into Monday night. Batman didn’t see much out of Carr but he went further than Herbert and PeePaw. Batman’s Swift only got 3 compared to his Lions replacement in Monty who put up 12 for PeePaw. Achane went off in his return for 24 and Charbs had a great week with 16, giving the edge to Batman again. Kyren added another 19 for Batman. In the NFC East matchup, Batman had 20 with DeVonta Smith and PeePaw had 27 from Lamb. Batman also saw 14 from Olave and 11 from Diontae Johnson. Batman did not celebrate early like one of his wide receivers as he knew it would be a fight till the end. Hollywood did not show up for Batman this week, providing 0 points in a whole football game. PeePaw had help from Aiyuk with 13 and 10 from Rice. It would all come down to Ridley and Monday night. As this is being typed, Kirk just went down with an injury, Ridley then received two touches. We will circle back to see if Ridley can get it done for PeePaw. Ahhhh, not great for Ridley, a 41 yard bomb was called back on him which would have won PeePaw the week. Batma wins 118.1 to 114.26.
v.
Teach v. JonnyDIII’s Joyful Demons
Teach looking for the sweep and JD3 is trying to lock up the top seed. Monday night would settle this one as well. Teach entered Monday night with a 1 point advantage. Teach saw 66 from Tua/Tyreek/Waddle. That is a solid chunk. Teach then saw B-Rob and Rhomandre leave the game early with injuries that will likely be more than just the one game. Tony Pollard had 16. That is all that really stood out for Teach with Kirk and Mixon to go. Kirk, as mentioned above went down with an injury and is uncertain to return. JD3 had 0 from McLaurin in a whole football game. Mahomes stunk. Sing sunk. But, Nico put up 30, Pittman had 22 and D-Hop had 16. JD3 had Chase and Etienne to go for Monday night. The odds were slightly in JD3’s favor for Monday night, without Kirk, the odds should be leaning more JD3. Etienne already put one in the endzone. It is going to still be a close one. We will check back in after the game. Well Mixon put up two tuds and Chase and Etienne did as well. Mixon pout up 27 from Teach and the Etienne Chase combo had 42. JD3 got the win 144.05 to 133. JD3 is in the drivers seat for the 1 seed.
v.
Mush’s Mongrels v. CrossFit
Ummm, not sure what the league low is, but it is Mush. CrossFit used up a lot of points for this matchup, knowing that a couple wins, a JD3 loss and 10 points would have CrossFit as the 1 seed. CrossFit would get the points, TBD on the JD3 loss. Dak had 10, Deebo had his first good game with 36, CMC 21, St. Brown 12 and Mostert had 12 as well. CrossFit wins 150.95 to 27.3.
v.
Bruce v. Trashman
Bruce is a coward, Bruce started JT who was ruled out well in advance, what Bruce is doing is criminal, he is not a man of integrity. Trashman barely doubled him up. Trashman saw 25 from LaPorta, 24 from Christian Watson and 20 from Pacheco. Trashman wins 125.4 to 49.7.
v.
Touchdown Guy v. Daddy Wombat
Touchdown Guy, like CrossFit is in the same boat. Needs about 70 points, a JD3 loss and two wins. Well he cut the points down big time, a JD3 loss is TBD. TDG saw 34 from Stafford, 26 from Mike Evans, 25 from D-Train, 23 from James Conner, 22 from Puca, 14 from Taysum Hill and 13 from Cooper Kupp. Lead dog. If TDG was lead dog, that’s not a good sign for D.W. D.W. saw 34 from Metcalf on Thursday, 32 from Hurts, 26 from Kamara and 20 from the Piece JSN combo. It would not be enough. TDG wins 176.55 to 126.7. TDG stays in the mix for the 1 seed or at least a bye, guaranteed the 3 seed. D.W. is officially eliminated from the playoffs.
v.
Pistol v. Bottom Bunk
Pistol needed a win to lock up a playoff spot. The person I want to play if I need a win is B.B. Pistol didn’t do much, but it was enough. Pistol saw 15 from A.J. Brown and another 15 from Sutton. Jerome Ford had 13 and Stroud had a down week for Pistol with 22. B.B. had a couple people hit double digits. Baker, Pickens, Jameson Williams and Fergie. It doesn’t matter how many points they had because it was not enough. Pistol wins 100.3 to 81.3.
That does it for the matchups, now we get into the picks.

Good morning class, we have out 10th answer sheet for Professor Pickum.
The week after Thanksgiving. We’re fat (editor’s not, speak for yourself). We’re winning (editor’s note, speak for yourself). One of these probably needs to change but I hope it’s not the winning.
Seattle @ Dallas -8.5
- Nope.
San Francisco -2.5 @ Philadelphia
- BANG!
Detroit -4.5 @ New Orleans
- BANG!
Professor Pickum was 2-1 on the week and is 21-11.
I wanted to take a look at the Playoff picture but it will give away too much for tomorrow. That does it for this week. We will have a juicy preview tomorrow. There is a lot on the line, really only 1 spot up for grabs still. Hopefully you have had better luck with the playoffs than one team we are going to talk about tomorrow. Until then I hope you and yours have a better tomorrow.
Let’s Go!
