The Pecking Order Week 16, 2025
Dark Magicians Storm to #1 With 165-Point Explosion
League sources tell me Dark Magicians have seized the top spot with a dominant 3-0 performance over the last few weeks and a league-leading 151.9 PPG. Boom. Meanwhile, Fire Ready has hit rock bottom — losers of seven straight with a 26.7% all-play record and season PPG under 85.
The order on the map
-
Dark Magicians dropped 165.06 this week — the highest score in the league — and they're rolling at 3-0 over the last three with a 67.5% all-play win rate. Money is nice, but championships are better, and this team is chasing one.

Vitside is locked and loaded with a 69.8% all-play clip and a 3-game winning streak, averaging 119.1 PPG over the last three weeks to slide into the #2 slot.

Gridiron Geeks are streaking with three straight wins and 118.2 PPG over the last three weeks, but their 58.0% all-play record suggests they're still vulnerable.

Mariachi Ninjas posted 130.1 PPG over the last three — the most explosive output outside Dark Magicians — but they left 47.05 on the bench this week and sit just 49.8% all-play.

-
Da Dangsters own the third-best all-play record at 71.0%, but league sources tell me their 95.7 PPG over the last three weeks is a red flag; elite all-play teams need league-average scoring.

Wascawy Wabbits are hovering around the playoff line with a 65.9% all-play record and a 2-2 record over the last three weeks split, but their season PPG of 119.3 keeps them competitive.
65.9% all-play 100.7 PPG, last three weeks

Computer Jocks drew the matchup of the week against Dark Magicians in Week 17, but I'm told their 58.8% all-play and 2-1 record over the last three weeks leaves them vulnerable to the #1 team.
58.8% all-play 111.2 PPG, last three weeks
-
Bring The Pain have won four straight — the longest active win streak in the league — and they're ascending fast despite a 1-2 performance over the last few weeks.
61.6% all-play 106.6 PPG, last three weeks
-
The Dream are 3-0 over the last three, but their 49.4% all-play record and 98.5 season PPG tell you this team is riding variance, not elite talent.
49.4% all-play 109.5 PPG, last three weeks
-
Midwestside's 46.3% all-play and 106.6 PPG over the last three weeks put them squarely in the rebuild zone; this franchise needs a major course correction.

Pigskins caught lightning in a bottle with a 3-0 performance over the last few weeks, but their 43.1% all-play and sub-96 season PPG suggest they're overperforming.
43.1% all-play 101.0 PPG, last three weeks
-
Music City has imploded — just 34.9% all-play, a 2-game losing streak, and 97.7 PPG over the last three. I'm told the rot is setting in fast.
34.9% all-play 97.7 PPG, last three weeks
-
Cowboy Up are falling apart: 33.7% all-play, 3-game losing streak, and 94.4 PPG over the last three weeks. This team is headed for a lottery pick.
33.7% all-play 94.4 PPG, last three weeks
-
Dead Cap has lost three straight and owns a horrific 28.6% all-play record; league sources tell me this team's 88.0 season PPG has them in full-tank mode.
28.6% all-play 97.8 PPG, last three weeks
-
Mavericks are in free fall — 0-3 over the last three weeks, 34.9% all-play, and just 82.1 PPG. Boom. This is a franchise in serious trouble.
34.9% all-play 82.1 PPG, last three weeks
-
Fire Ready have dropped seven in a row — the longest active losing streak in the league — with a league-worst 26.7% all-play and 84.6 PPG over the last three weeks. It's time to blow it up.
