Headhunters 4: The Sinister Six

## Introduction

The boys were 2 bad for Bad Boys 2 and now we are down to just a few. It's the Sinister Six!

## In Memorium: Bad Boys II - The Soundtrack

Everybody has bad days. In week 12, part of the reason why Bad Boys had such a bad day is because two of his players had such good days. Up against the Houston Texans, Tyreek Hill and Tua Tagovailoa essentially took the day to rest and relax and enjoy a hot dog on the sidelines.

Dalvin Cook, meanwhile, looked like he filled up on turkey before the game and was put down for an afternoon nap by the Patriots D-line, leaving primetime Kirk Cousins to air it out under the bright lights for seemingly the first time in his career. With Jefferson feasting, Cook couldn't cook.

Elsewhere, injuries and stout defenses burned KVR. Travis Etienne left early and could have returned but the Jaguars coaching staff decided "Fuck You" instead. Alvin Kamara had his second sub-9 point game in three weeks. And Mark Andrews, the longer the season goes on, looks less and less like a guy who deserves to be uttered in the same breath as Travis Kelce.

If KVR had started his optimal lineup (Pacheco for Cook, Allen for Alvin , and Pickens for Etienne) he would have finished with 209.26 and lost by 1.37, a much more painful defeat. So it's almost better this way. You go out with your guys. Although there is some poetic justice here.

After all, Bad Boys seemed bent on helping Wildcat all season long. First he gave him a QB for Tyreek Hill (great trade). Then, in the final hour, he traded away Stefon Diggs for Austin Ekeler and kept Wildcat alive. And now it's Wildcat who is one of the favorites to win this whole thing, while Bad Boys and all his efforts goes home around the same time as last season.

Still, as much as Bad Boys and Commish are rivals on the fantasy football field and on basically every other field, he is one of the most dedicated, hard working, scheming managers the league will ever see. And if I had to choose between that and a person who never sets his lineup, I'll take the schemer every time. Until next time...

2. Austin Ekeler
3. DeAndre Hopkins
4. Alvin Kamara
5. Dalvin Cook

## Week Twelve Bidding Results

* The Nate and Chan clan were runners-up in every bid war this week, but might come out as winners in the process.
* The oversized bid for Josh Allen by Jared Allen seems to be a product of paranoia and an overstuffed pocket. McBungalow played it safe with mid-sized bid and now has advantage over the league down the stretch in funds.
* For $5, Godwin came up huge for Wildcat as now the no-QB rolls with another top-two finish.

## Rulers of the Kingdom

2022 first place finishers:

Hasta logs back-to-back 1sts and is peaking at just the right time. He put up the best score since week 8.

## Dungeon Dwellers

2022 teams that finished second-to-last, narrowly avoiding elimination:

Out of Luck notches his fourth second-to-last place finish in week 11 but still breaks 200 and two other teams were within 2.5 points of him. Very close finish. This is his seventh 2nd-to-last place finish in the last two seasons, which leads the league. Last season one team finished 2nd-to-last four time and that was RemDawg Forever, who ended up in the championship game.

## Single Season Scoring Records

As teams get eliminated, their single season performance will appear here.

Bad boys surpasses their previous single-season record and cracks the top-15 (for now).

## All-Time Combined Points Scored

Same as above: eliminated teams will have their 2022 season added to the total. It defies logic, but it looks like Out of Luck is going to finish his fourth season as one of the top-scoring teams in Headhunters history. I don't get how he continues to survive, season after season, but he just does. Being average pays off I guess.
