==The Path to 100 Losses==
Losing 100 games doesn't happen overnight. For Glory Bowl 1 Champion Papa's Posse, it happened over the course of many long, sad nights over the last twelve years.

Papa's worst two-season stretch was from 2012-2013, when he went 6-20 in his title defense. This was also the time in which he had one of his two seven-game losing streaks. The other came in 2019 which can be argued was his worst three-season stretch. He lost eight or more games in each and is at risk of extending the streak to four such seasons in 2022 if he cannot string together wins. 2022 is also the closest he has come to managing a playoff berth since his franchise best 9-4 record in 2018.

You are always hurt by the ones you love most, which is why it makes sense that his worst record comes against Commish (6-14). But Papa has 10 or more regular season losses against a whopping 6 teams, with RIPDab threatening to make it a 7th. That would leave just Stupid Idiots, who he has only matched up against 9 times, and Sweet Dee (8-6) as teams who have not notched double digit regular season wins against him.

==Power Rankings-Week 10==
The playoff race is heating up! 
===1(1). Duck Punchers===
It wasn't what you would exactly call a pretty win, but it was a win. While a lot about this team is week-to-week, one thing that appears solid is the RB group of Walker, Pierce, and Etienne. Shockingly, one thing that seems to have been tougher than expected this season is getting production out of the QB position. Justin Herbert has been a little bit of a disappointment and it could be a hole this Duck needs to plug for the postseason run. 
===2(3). The Stupid Idiots ===
Holy fucking shit, Justin Fields. The guy put up 80 points vs. the Dolphins...and LOST! Forget that outside of Tyreek Hill, the rest of the Idiots basically played like shit. Idiots has been on a scoring spree of late and is probably the hottest team in the league (though I need to see one more week of balling out before I overthrow first place Duck Punchers in these rankings). 
===3(2). The Shotti Bunch===
Similar to Duck, Shotti had his hands full in his week 9 matchup. It took the combined effort of Jackson, Tucker, and Baltimore Defense all getting within striking distance of their projections to pull off the late Monday Night Football comeback vs. Pain Train. After pumping up Hopkins in last week's writeup, he came back down to Earth with just 13 points and now Kyler may be out week 10 so we'll see how that factors in to his performance. 
=== 4(5). Pain Train===
Couldn't pull off the upset this week and now has to face off against 7-2 Duck in week 10. But there are some signs of life here, like Jeff Wilson Jr. looking like the guy in Miami and Jonathan Taylor expected back for the Colts. Pain Train just really needs to stop chasing names. What are we doing with Cam Akers in a starting lineup? 
===5(4). RIPDab===
Played a great game. Bravo. Anybody can put up 250 against Mattness, they have like the worst defense in the league (little joke about how unlucky I am). No, but seriously, good performance from RIPDab thanks to an incredible Joe Mixon game. 77 points from Mixon is almost more impressive than the 80 from Justin Fields, except everyone assumed Fields sucks so that gets a small bump. Still, insane day. But they won't get that every week and they appear to have lost their QB for week 10. Good thing he still has Kupp and Goedert! 
===6(6). Papa's Posse===
Disappointing fall back to the planet for everyone's favorite underdog. Luckily it can be traced back to Sutton/McCaffrey on the bye and some weak games from stars Mike Evans and DJ Moore. Swapping to Cousins at least shows that Papa is good to start the hot hand, a trait he'll need to master with the low floor flex guys he has streaming this year. 
===7(8). ma ma momma said===
Good job, you beat Pat again. Try beating someone with a winning record and then we'll talk! 
===8(7). Sweet Dee ===
The more things change, the more they stay the same. 
===9(9). Multiverse of Mattness===
It's frustrating being me, you know? Losing sucks. And being good and still losing sucks even more. I almost wish my team would be an absolute trash heap, but it's not. 
===10(10). Paddock 9===
This guy has so many useless runningbacks. What is he hoping happens? Every single bell cow in the league gets hurt all at once and suddenly Paddock 9 has amassed an army? I honestly don't get handcuffs except in a select few situations (like Pollard for Zeke or Elijah Mitchell for CMC who P9 actually has). Talented guys who have fantasy value on their own who would become league winners in the case of an injury. But I legit do not get people stashing shitty runningbacks simply because they back up stars. Just use that spot for actual good players. 
==Matchup of the week==
Let's run it back with Pain Train. He's been in some heaters this season. Up against the first place Duck Punchers, who will surely unleash Amon-Ra the Fantasy Sun Gawd. Could be a fantastic high-scoring affair in week 10. Stay tuned!
