BOSSES LEAD THE LEAGUE
...and gut wrench the Nighthawks.

Week Ten is traditionally when we start to see teams guaranteeing themselves a play off berth, or begin facing elimination. We've got two shocks, one at the top and bottom of the league ladder. What is going on with English teams?

Thanksgiving is coming, someone's going to get stuffed and cooked, and it could happen both ends of the ladder.

Let's go around the grounds right after the second most important message you'll hear this Veteran's day.

DONATE TO SUBSIM...AND NOMINATE SUBSIM FANTASY FOOTBALL FOR BEST OF SUBSIM.

Thursday night. It's always a crap shoot on Thursday night - starting the week a couple of days ahead of anyone else. Unless you're the Drunk Monkeys and the Boss team is starting. This game was over Thursday night as Ja'marr Chase (WR) set a league individual record score of 61.40 points. Combined with Lamar Jackson (QB) they combined for over 100 points - before the Drunk Monkeys even walked on to the field. This was a landslide victory for the Bossses who suddenly look like the #1 overall seed in the post season. Can anyone stop them? Not the Drunk Monkeys this week as they collapse 164 - 76.

Can the Nighthawks catch the Bosses? Not this week. Our Match of the Day at Wembley had the Nighthawks hosting the Taipans on their longest away game of the year. The long haul flight didn't affect Chuba Hubbard (RB) who opened the scoring for the Taipans with a solid 30 points. While the receiving corp for the Taipans failed to score a touchdown, so too did the Nighthawks wide receivers fail to score, leaving the touchdowns to Taylor's boyfriend, Travis Kielce (TE). This has implications for both teams, but the most significant is the loss by the Nighthawks. What has happened to the Nighthawks as they loose 136 - 89.

In Carolina this week, the Black Cats hosted the Banter Brigade, who welcome the return of Christian McCaffrey (RB). Easing back into the game to make a full team compliment, we'll expected bigger scores in the next week, but a respectful 16 points on return from injury. With McCaffrey back in the game, the Cats Jalen Hurts (QB) capitalized and threw for 2 touchdowns while running another 2 touchdowns in. This one was not close int he end as the Black Cats extinguish the Banter Brigade 142 - 104.

Final game of the week was the Wasted Potential hosting the Who Dat Nation Rises. This was expected to be an easy win for the Waste based on the underperformance of the Nation lately, but not this week - the Nation came to rise. The Waste were stifled by a late inactivation of Cooper Cup (WR) leaving the door open for the Nation to steal one of the biggest wins of the year. At 4-5 the Nation have not yet been eliminated - but they're getting close. Monday night would decide this game with the Waste getting Cooper Cup (WR) back from injury, and the Nation with Nacua (WR) and Williams (RB). In the two on one battle the Waste were able to just hold on for a win. Wasted Potential gets up over the Nation 103 - 94.

With the unexpected come unexpected league results. Let's take this apart division by division so we get clarity, and we'll start with the Sub Simmers division.

The Boss team lead the league and the division at 8-2. A win gets the Black Cat to 5-5, while four games back from the Bosses at 4-5 are the Helmand Nighthawks and the Who Dat Nation. Who had the Nighthawks at the bottom of the division other bingo card.

Over in the Surface Skimmers division the Wasted Potential and the Australian Taipans are at 7-3 with the Waste holding the tie breaker. A long way back are the Drunk Monkeys 3-7 and the Banter Brigade 2-8.

Next week we have two (2) great matchups but we're going to stay in England with the Helmand Nighthawks hosting the Boss Brigade in the local derby. The Bosses can confirm a playoff position with a win while the Nighthawks are facing elimination with a loss. Nighthawks need the win just to stay in contention for the Championship bracket.

Each week the Associated Subsim Writers (ASW) will nominated their Most Valuable Torpedo (MVT) of the week, the single player who proved decisive in their team's performance.

Thursday night was a wild night and it was hard with the record score, but there was another player in that game that was outstanding.For the effort of 290 yards, 4 touchdownsand a 2 point conversion, for a total of 40.90 points, the Week ten MVT goes to Lamar Jackson of the Boss Team.
