Jimmy · Kalamazoo, MI · Detroit Lions fan · First year in the league
A league rookie and a diehard Lions and Michigan man. His Wolverines just lost to Iowa, and Michigan basketball took last year's national title over Elliot's Arizona Wildcats — so he's already made enemies in high places.
League titles: 0 — rookie season
By the numbers: 99.2 points per game (Week 1: 89.9, Week 2: 108.6), a +18.7 trend, season high of 108.6 and a floor of 89.9. The arrow is pointing sideways.
At 2-1, Amon-Ra Doggin are one of the league's last unbeatens. The parade route is being planned. The parade will be one guy in a jersey honking a horn, but still.
Opponents have managed just 330.8 points against them — the stingiest mark in the league. Either brilliant management or the kind of luck that runs out in October.
Riding a W-2 streak into this week. Momentum is real, say people who have never watched fantasy football.
The difference-makers: Matthew Stafford, Christian McCaffrey, Kenneth Walker III, Rome Odunze. If two of them hit on the same Sunday, Amon-Ra Doggin can beat anyone in this league. If none do — well, the game log tells that story.
