The Championship Game

There was once a dream that was TPD. It was so fragile you could only whisper it. Anything more than a whisper and it would vanish. 

In 2016, TPD rose from the ashes of his layered past and soared to heights previously unknown. The theme of that season rang loud and true all year, as the weight of its purpose carried his franchise through thick and thin, and now TPD prepares for the final crescendo. For the 3rd straight year, TPD has traversed the labyrinth that is the MFFL, through poor circumstance and turmoil, and has come out clean on the other side, playing for it all in the 2025 MFFL Championship. The dream was realized in the form of a magical 3peat not soon forgotten. Such unimaginable dreams parade the thoughts of TPD once more. TPD is tired of finishing 2nd, which he has done three out of the last four years. He reaches once for golden coronation. The poor circumstances of old and of this season prove only one thing. That history is about to repeat itself.

TPD's run to the final duel was orchestrated by last week's remarkable comeback win on Monday Night Football. The catalyst for the victory was TPD's elite game day managing. A skill he has put on full display time and time again. It gives him confidence this week. He will look to the elite moves of old. Nobody makes decisions like TPD. He can make GOAT decisions in the most important moments. For the championship, TPD will unleash the full power of his strength. What was once achieved, then etched in stone, and finally cast in gold, will come again. TPD will shine on. He has walked there and seen the light. It is memory precious and pure. If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule. 

The starting lineup will look much different than a week ago, again. More on Joe Burrow later. TPD has decisions to make at WR. All 5 of TPD's WRs are jockeying for just 2 starting spots. Nico will likely be benched in a tough match-up. London should have a bounce back on Monday night, giving TPD one hell of a final bullet in the chamber. Evans has a dream match-up at Miami. Wilson and BTJ are in smash spots, but with less certain roles. TPD knows explosions are coming from that position group. He just has to make the right choices. BTJ exploding in the ship, after such a poor year, would be the ultimate TPD irony and beast managing. The RBs are also strong entering the all important finale. Cook has been TPD's best player. He will carry him to the promise land, as was fore-told. Hampton may be thrust back into a lead back role. A position he smashed in earlier in the season. Taylor is likely saving his best performance for last. There is certainly more left in the tank. McBride will explode after his first down performance of the season a week ago. Going up against the Bengals, there is no telling how many points he could score. 

The playoff run has felt like a dream. TPD has had a calm confidence about him for weeks. He knows what this team is about to do. Soon the league will find out. He is an embattled dreamer. Coursing through his veins is nostalgia and reverence. He has seen it all. Grinding all his life in this league. It is the grind that propels him now. No matter the circumstance, he will not give up. He is too hardened. You know of what I speak. It is the NASTY. At TPD's side for so long, it will never betray him. It will attack its opponent with reckless abandon. The time is now. For what is dead may never die, but rises again harder and stronger. If you got beef then bring the ruckus, TPD ain't no-one to mess with. You down with TPD? Yeah, you know me. 

Player Profile: Joe Burrow

TPD and Burrow have had a complicated relationship. TPD has seen Burrow at his best and worst, and has been unafraid to challenge the emotional warrior. Burrow has in turn burdened TPD with rage inducing performances. Simply put, when Burrow starts, he bombs, but when on TPD's bench, he smashes. But all that changes this week. For everything both of these dreamers have been through, this week they draw swords together. They will put the past behind them and accomplish something truly special, together. Now is the hour. Draw ranks and banners. Sound the TPD horn in the deep one last time. Now for rath, and for ruin, and the red dawn. NASTYYYYYY!

Week 16 Press Release (Semi-Final Edition)

 The Peaking Dynasty vs ShowMeYourTDs

Date: December 21, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: Tight Grip Palace

Starting Lineup:

QB: Jacoby Brissett

WR: Drake London

WR: Nico Collins

RB: Jonathan Taylor

RB: James Cook III

TE: Trey McBride

FLEX: Mike Evans

K: Chase McLaughlin

DEF: New Orleans

Through it all, TPD fights. His fight was displayed a week ago, when against all odds, he smashed his way into the final four. The team had bad match-ups everywhere, and TPD threw down 170 points. This, when his QB accounted for a single point. All the positioning, the waiting, and game day managing, led to that moment. TPD put the entire league on notice. And now, the match-ups are clearer. TPD has multiple options at his disposal. Get your popcorn ready. 

The lineup for this week could look completely different than a week ago. QB, WR, Flex, and Def could all have different players. Joe Burrow will almost certainly hit the bench, after such a disinterested and pathetic performance in the quarterfinal. TPD has a decision to make between Brissett and Purdy, both of whom are in smash spots. London could return to the lineup this week. TPD will have to weigh whether or not to start him in his first game back from injury. If MHJ returns for the Cardinals, Wilson will almost certainly be put on TPD's bench. Nico is ready to roll, while Evans could be a true game changer in TPD's flex. McBride is out for history, after cooking the best defense in the league a week ago. TPD hopes Taylor will finally have a smash game, after so many average performances down the stretch. Cook carried TPD a week ago. He's been unleashed since hitting TPD's roster. Ballers from last week, Kittle, Henderson, and Thomas, could all be on the bench this week. It is an insane amount of depth, considering how late in the year it is. The one question is going to be, will TPD make the right lineup decisions.

The NASTY is always making the right decisions, and making quick disposals his it's opponents. What a glorious afternoon it was a week ago. TPD will now have to travel on the road for another feast. Everything has been building for this moment. TPD is peaking at the perfect moment. You know what they awoke in the darkness...shadow and flame.

Player Profile: Mike Evans

Evans could not have played better in a game returning from injury. He played so well, it will be tough to keep him out of TPD's lineup. He is a winner. He has won championships for TPD in the past, and defeated him in the ship a year ago. The future Hall of Famer is the keystone. He unlocks the potential of TPD's roster. He will be the light when all other's go out. It is time. NASTY. 

Week 15 Press Release (Quarterfinal Edition)

 The Peaking Dynasty vs Imposing Monstrosity

Date: December 14, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: TPD Field House

Starting Lineup:

QB: Joe Burrow

WR: Nico Collins

WR: Michael Wilson

RB: Jonathan Taylor

RB: James Cook

TE: Trey McBride

FLEX: George Kittle

K: Chase McLaughlin

DEF: Jacksonville

The playoffs have arrived. This is what we have all been waiting for. There is no better time of year. TPD is always grateful to playing meaningful football this late in the season. The top overall point scorer by a mile, TPD unfortunately did not get a 1st rd bye. Due once again to his horrible luck. He lost three straight to end the season, as each of his opponents scored well over 130 ppg. He finished with the 2nd hardest schedule in the league. There is simply no end in sight to this franchise horrible circumstances. Here is a list of TPD's strength of schedule over the last 6 years: 2nd toughest, 5th toughest, 4th toughest, 1st toughest, 1st toughest, 3rd toughest. Words cannot describe how unlucky he is. TPD must put the past behind him. He has been here before, and he has climbed the mountain. For what is dead may never die, but rises harder and stronger. If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?

As if the fantasy gods were laughing at TPD, this week he has multiple brutal match-ups on the schedule. TPD will have to decide between Burrow and Purdy, as Burrow's game will have frigid temperatures. Burrow will likely get the nod, in what is expected to be a shootout against Lamar Jackson. Had TPD started Burrow a week ago, he would have secured a bye. It was a mistake that could have massive consequences. Nico and Wilson will continue to start, due to London's injury. Wilson has a brutal match-up though. Evans could be thrown into the flex, but TPD will likely play it safe and avoid a Thursday player. Taylor lost his QB, and now has a terrifying match-up on the road. Unfortunately for TPD, all his other RBs have terrible matchups too. There is nowhere to turn, and TPD will have to roll with JT in a likely disappointing spot. Cook needs to rebound after a tough game a week ago. TPD may start both his elite TEs, as he looks for an edge. But McBride plays Houston, just like Wilson. After breaking it down, TPD supposes it always had to be this way. Nothing in this league is easy for him. He faces challenges few could even fathom, and he beats them. Time and time again you try to hold him down, but he cannot be restrained. TPD will show no mercy. No matter the odds stacked against him, he will fight to the last. 

The NASTY is with him. The NASTY is eager for a home playoff game. This is what it lives for. You may strike it down. You may rub dirt in its face. But you will not defeat it. It is memory, precious and pure. It shines on. Propelling this embattled dreamer, on a wave of nostalgia and reverence. TPD walked amongst the stars and grasped greatness. He was then etched in stone, and finally cast in golden coronation. TPD once again reaches for heights once known, to grasp glorious achievement. 

Player Profile: George Kittle

Kittle gets the nod this week because the team needs to look to him for guidance. TPD needs to fight all odds like Kittle. He needs to play with joyful youthfulness. He needs to fight for every inch. Kittle is the leader this week, either in the starting lineup or not. We look to him for the way. If you got beef then bring the ruckus, TPD ain't no-one to mess with. 

Week 14 Press Release

 The Peaking Dynasty vs La Flama Blanca

Date: December 7, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: Busch Field

Starting Lineup:

QB: Joe Burrow

WR: Drake London

WR: Brian Thomas Jr

RB: Jonathan Taylor

RB: James Cook

TE: Trey McBride

FLEX: Michael Wilson

K: Chase McLaughlin

DEF: Tampa Bay

TPD clinched the playoffs a week ago, even in a losing effort. Stop me if this sounds familiar, TPD played well but his opponent exploded. Year after year after year. TPD has scored over 300 more points than each of the two teams ahead of him in the standings. Once again his team is great, and poor circumstance holds him back. TPD has been putting starting lineups together with duct tape the last month. But still he dominates. With the playoffs on the horizon, the team is finally getting healthy. It couldn't happen at a better time. TPD hopes to save his best weeks for the playoffs. A win this week could secure the top overall seed for the playoffs, giving him a bye next week. 

Burrow, Daniels, London, Evans, Hampton. The list of injured TPD players is plentiful. But guess what, they are all practicing this week. There is a chance they all play, but London and Evans look truly questionable. Either way, TPD expects them all to be back next week. How sweet it is. Burrow will get the nod this week, but Daniels had a full practice today. What a devastating QB duo to have entering the playoffs. TPD will play the match-ups. Even if London and Evans are out, TPD can still rely on Michael Wilson, who will once again be a PPR hack due to another MHJ injury. Taylor and Cook will continue to be the lifeblood of the team, while McBride will continue to be the best TE in fantasy, giving TPD a massive edge at that position the rest of the way. 

Always having a massive edge is the NASTY from Dynasty. Week after week this beast shows up, even without its full allotment of players. It kicks it into a different gear come playoff time. You can feel it in the air and smell it in the earth. 

Player Profile: Joe Burrow

TPD has been waiting for this moment. Burrow represents league winning upside. And considering TPD got him off waivers, it is all the more sweeter. Both him and Evans could be waiver wire gems. Burrow's defense is so bad, that he can't not score fantasy points. Even if they are winning, no lead is big enough, leading to aggressive play calling. TPD has coached the hell out of this team this year. And Burrow helping TPD to a title would be proof of that. The time is near. 

Playoff Bound!

 

Week 13 Press Release

 The Peaking Dynasty vs Imposing Monstrosity

Date: November 30, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: Tape Measure Field

Starting Lineup:

QB: Justin Herbert

WR: Nico Collins

WR: Michael Wilson

RB: Jonathan Taylor

RB: James Cook III

TE: Trey McBride

FLEX: TreVeyon Henderson

K: Chase McLaughlin

DEF: Miami

TPD lost last week but remains in first place. The team played well enough to win, but TPD's opponent played great. TPD rarely wins games in such circumstances, due to his historically terrible luck. This week is Thanksgiving and the squad will look to bounce back. Injuries remain a huge part of the equation, but TPD hopes the boys will get healthy at the perfect time. Everyone is gearing up for the playoffs, and TPD knows it is more important to peak then, than now. 

Burrow is back, but Herbert will get the start in a better match-up. If Daniels returns next week, then TPD will have a ton of firepower at QB down stretch, and he'll be able to play them based on who has the best match-up. Taylor slowed a week ago, but TPD is fine with it. Save your best for later in the year Taylor. London remains out. TPD will need a healthy London, in order to be at full strength. But that may not happen the rest of the season, especially with Penix out. Cook, McBride, and Kittle all ate a week ago, they continue to perform for this squad. Henderson slowed, and may be bumped out of the lineup if BTJ is good to go. The squad isn't peaking. Which is good. The peaking will come later. 

Always peaking is the NASTY. It knows the score. Come playoff time, it will roar. 

Player Profile: Michael Wilson

Wilson has been unbelievable since MHJ got hurt. Even when MHJ returns, Wilson has shown too much chemistry with Brissett to be benched. Look for him to continue his dominate late season surge. He may be relied upon more if London remains out. Smash again Wilson. 

Week 12 Press Release

 The Peaking Dynasty vs Chicken Noodle Coop

Date: November 23, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: TPD Field House

Starting Lineup:

QB: Joe Burrow

WR: Nico Collins

WR: Brian Thomas Jr

RB: Jonathan Taylor

RB: James Cook III

TE: Trey McBride

FLEX: TreVeyon Henderson

K: Chase McLaughlin

DEF: Baltimore

TPD oh TPD. How do you do it. Another week, another dominate victory. He scored 170 last week, a week after toping 190+. Since week 3, he has not scored below 130. He is averaging 159 ppg during that stretch. The main worry continues to be maintaining this momentum for the potential playoffs, as well as keeping his thin WR core healthy. Even still, this has been one of the best seasons in fantasy history. TPD will make sure it is worth remembering. 

What's even more impressive is how well TPD has played considering the injuries and bye weeks he has endured the last few weeks. This week is no different. He hopes Burrow returns from injury, but it is no sure thing. If he does, then TPD will have once again made a league winning waiver pickup at the most opportune time. With London hurt, TPD will rely on Nico and BTJ, assuming BTJ plays. Taylor is back from bye, and Cook put together a good performance last week. Henderson is feasting, while McBride and Kittle continue to be the best TE's in all of fantasy. One more win could secure a playoff spot. TPD has to keep the boys focused. We will repeat, no #1 seed has ever won the MFFL. If TPD secures the top spot, he will do everything in his power to break that trend. 

Always doing everything in its power is the NASTY from Dynasty. This year has been special. The dominance displayed is of such a NASTY variety. It simply sends adrenaline coursing through your veins. Its is the one. Shine on. If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule. 

Player Profile: Brian Thomas Jr

BTJ has had a sophomore slump. He is also recovering from injury. If he is unable to go, TPD will turn to someone else. The player profile is a sign to the team. A sign that no matter what happens TPD does give in or breakdown. Now is the time for BTJ to flip the script. Become the player he was drafted to be. Winning late in the year is all about getting hot at the right time. BTJ fits that mold. He has everything in front of him. Take it. 

Week 11 Press Release

 The Peaking Dynasty vs The Dingos Ate Your Babies

Date: November 16, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: TPD Field House

Starting Lineup:

QB: Justin Herbert

WR: Drake London

WR: Nico Collins

RB: James Cook III

RB: TreVeyon Henderson

TE: Trey McBride

FLEX: George Kittle

K: Chase McLaughlin

DEF: Baltimore

TPD has done it again. He scored 195 points a week ago. Every season this franchise puts up numbers other teams could only dream of producing. He enters week 11 in 1st place and far and away the points leader. The team is peaking you could say. As is the fear with any manager with a dominate squad, TPD hopes the boys keep enough in the tank for a potential playoff run. But right now, this team's dominance has to be celebrated. TPD has now crossed the 190 point barrier 8 times in his career. In the entire history of the MFFL, only one other time has a team crossed the 190 barrier. Just once. Nine teams have done it a combined once. TPD has done it eight times. 

The starting lineup will miss Jonathan Taylor, but the potential league MVP has earned a bye week. Henderson should fill in nicely as he will once again be the lead back, this time on Thursday against a soft Jets D. Cook needs to start playing better, but TPD know how well he tends to play once the wether turns in buffalo, and they start running more. London and Nico are starting to play like the players they were drafted to be, and McBride and Kittle may be the two best TEs in fantasy right now. TPD picked up Joe Burrow, who may be back from injury sooner than expected, but not this week. TPD has to capture this momentum and store some for latter in the year. No #1 seed has never won the MFFL, and TPD currently holds the top spot. 

Always at the top is the NASTY. Can it still be hungry after such a feast a week ago? Yes, yes it can. This is what it does. It is a freight train. No team performs to the level that TPD does year in and year out, and he has the NASTY to thank for that. It is the driver, the destroyer of worlds, and the heart beat. It shines on. It was walked amongst the stars and seen the world fall away. 

Player Profile: Justin Herbert

Herbert has been an unbelievable waiver wire pick up this season. He has hidden the loss of a slumping and injured Jayden Daniels all year. He will do so once more before his bye next week. The loss of his tackles has hurt him in recent weeks, and TPD will monitor the situation down the final stretch of the season. But for this week, Herbert knows the directive. Dominate. Continue the momentum. 

Week 10 Press Release

 The Peaking Dynasty vs La Flama Blanca

Date: November 9, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: TPD Field House

Starting Lineup:

QB: Justin Herbert

WR: Drake London

WR: Nico Collins

RB: Jonathan Taylor

RB: James Cook III

TE: Trey McBride

FLEX: TreVeyon Henderson

K: Chase McLaughlin

DEF: Carolina

Keep rolling rolling rolling. TPD continued his winning ways a week ago, once again amassing a large point total in a decisive victory. He is (6-3), 2nd in the standings, and far and away 1st in total points. TPD has been fortunate to have seemingly at least one smash performance every week, which makes up for any player on a down week. Now that the trade deadline has passed, this is the team TPD will take to the top. It is time to buckle up for some exciting 2nd half ball. 

Jayden Daniels getting hurt again for sure sucks. But Herbert has been operating as TPD's starter for weeks now. London exploded a week ago and reminded every one of his immense upside. The RBs will look to bounce back this week, and they will. McBride has been cruising with Brissett under center, and Brissett was just announced as the starter ROS. Look out. 

You should always look out for the NASTY. It has been unhinged this season. Now it enters its favorite time of year. This is when TPD teams typically separate from the pack, but that movement may have come early this season due to the NASTY's energy. It comes for you!

Player Profile: TreVeyon Henderson

This Buckeye great hopes to win titles in back2bck seasons. One in CFB and one in The MFFL. This is the week he separates. this is the week the rookie takes over the backfield. His time has come and TPD is about to reap all the benefits. Shine on Henderson. 

Week 9 Press Release

 The Peaking Dynasty vs The Real McCoy

Date: November 2, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: Jerry World

Starting Lineup:

QB: Jayden Daniels

WR: Drake London

WR: Nico Collins

RB: Jonathan Taylor

RB: James Cook

TE: Trey McBride

FLEX: Kimani Vidal

K: Jason Myers

DEF: Los Angeles

The Team played great a week ago. Even with injuries a byes a plenty. TPD is smashing. He has more than 100 total points than the next closest team. 

Player Profile: Kimani Vidal

Vidal showed a week ago what he could do. TPD will rely upon him once more. 

Week 8 Press Release

 The Peaking Dynasty vs Chicken Noodle Coop

Date: October 26, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: The Hen Den

Starting Lineup:

QB: Justin Herbert

WR: Drake London

WR: Nico Collins

RB: Jonathan Taylor

RB: James Cook III

TE: George Kittle

FLEX: Kimani Vidal

K: Chase McLaughlin

DEF: Atalanta

TPD lost a heartbreaker a week ago, 144-142. Both Daniels and Nico got hurt mid game, and a poor lineup decision led to the loss. Once again, it is hard to fathom the horrible luck it takes week after week to keep this franchise down. TPD watches in horror as each bounce of the ball goes against him, in the flukiest ways possible. Such horrible circumstance would send lesser managers out of the game entirely. But TPD endures. The players give him hope, and he will not let his team down. TPD is by far the highest scoring team in the league, but only has a (4-3) record. Sound familiar? Here we go again, again. 

The massive acquisition this week is James Cook III. More on him later. The rest of the lineup is a bit wounded entering week 8. Both Daniels and Nico will be out, and a few others are on bye. TPD also has to start multiple players on Thursday. That typically spells disaster for him. But every so often, when the wind directions of the season are unknown, a Thursday explosion from multiple player gives the ship its heading. It will happen again this Thursday. The season shifts now. This is not TPD at his optimal lineup, but so what. The boys will do their thing. Even if the record doesn't show it, this group is elite. 

Always elite is the NASTY. What more can this beast do week to week. It fights til its last breath, often fighting through gashes and mashes, until every last drop of blood is spent. What it needs is nurturing and healing. And it will get it. We owe everything to its will. 

Player Profile: James Cook III

James has been balling this year. After his new contract, he has solidified himself atop the Bills depth chart. Two bad games and coming off bye mean he is ready to explode. TPD had Cook last year, before trading him to acquire Gibbs. Now he is back, and ready to stand guard for the long haul. TPD needed an explosive player on an explosive offense, and he got one. TPD now has two stallions at RB, like he did before Hampton's injury. Look out. TPD is putting the finishing touches on this roster before the trade deadline. And the results will be NASTY. Go for broke Cook. 

Week 7 Press Release

 The Peaking Dynasty vs ShowMeYourTDs

Date: October 19, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: TPD Field House

Starting Lineup:

QB: Jayden Daniels

WR: Drake London

WR: Nico Collins

RB: Jonathan Taylor

RB: Breece Hall

TE: Trey McBride

FLEX: Brian Thomas Jr.

K: Chase Mclaughlin

DEF: Green Bay

TPD is rolling. He sits 2nd in overall standings and 1st in points scored. Over his last four games he has scored over 140 three times. Last week's game came down to Monday night, and Daniels and London balled out. This week will be the first time London, Nico, and Thomas are all in the lineup at the same time. TPD's yearly acquisitions of the best WRs appears to have happened yet again. But this year the squad looks stronger earlier, due to the strength at RB, QB and TE. The lineup is locked and loaded for another huge game in week 7. 

Daniels continues to wait for the return of McLaurin, but he showed last week how dominate he can be, even in a sloppy game. The WRs are rounding into form, showing their elite potential. Taylor continues to beast, while TPD is hoping for a bounce back game from Breece. McBride will do his thing as always. There is not much to say about a squad performing this well. The hope is that it continues, but otherwise, I have no notes. 

Always keeping score though is the NASTY. It's been freakish this season, tormenting fellow league members. And now it's back home baby. This epic battle raging monster strikes fear in the hearts of all who oppose. It will devour once more. 

Player Profile: Nico Collins

Collins, like BTJ, has yet to have his smash week. Coming off bye, TPD feels the time is now. Collins will go scorched earth the rest of the way. He knows his role as a TPD WR. He stands on the shoulder's of giants. The standard is the standard for TPD WRs, and he will carry the torch well. Time for an explosive performance on Monday night. He will carry TPD to victory like London did a week ago.  

Week 6 Press Release

 The Peaking Dynasty vs Imposing Monstrosity

Date: October 12, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: TPD Field House

Starting Lineup:

QB: Jayden Daniels

WR: Drake London

WR: Brian Thomas

RB: Jonathan Taylor

RB: Breece Hall

TE: Trey McBride

FLEX: TreVeyon Henderson

K: Chase McLaughlin

DEF: Las Vegas

TPD took down the last unbeaten team a week ago. Once again the boys came to play and put together great performances. Heading into week 6, TPD has to deal with an injury to Omarion Hampton, but otherwise is ready to rock. It is rivalry week #1 across the MFFL. TPD aims to continue his ascent to the top of the mountain. 

Both Daniels and Herbert are dealing with injuries to key contributors on their offense. TPD is likely to roll with Daniels, as Herbert's o-line has been too banged up to trust. It will be a game time decision though. Nico goes on bye, but London returns. TPD is still waiting for the Thomas breakout, but last week showed signs of promise. Breece Hall jumps to the #2 RB spot. TPD traded for Henderson this week, and he now has 4 rookie RBs on the roster. After trading Bucky and Chase Brown away last year, before they hit their prime, TPD is ready to wait on rookie RBs this year. They become league winners down the stretch. Henderson will have his best game of his season on Sunday. McBride may be without out Murray, but it won't matter. TPD's waiver wire pickups and lineup decisions have been on point this year. Points from the defense and K have saved a few of weeks. It is the type of skill that separates him from the pack.

Always separating is the NASTY. It knew what to do with an unbeaten foe a week ago. Now it comes home for a game against its rival. The stage is set, and the NASTY will devour all. Soon it will be too late for any to challenge TPD's right to rule. The winds of change carry an embattled dreamer, etched in golden coronation. 

Player Profile: Jonathan Taylor

We told you what Taylor was about to do this season. It's simply what this man does any time he is on TPD. He is back to being the top down at RB, and Sunday will once again be a smash week. Taylor is once again on an MVP/2,000 yard pace. The same thing he did for TPD back in 2021. My how the turns have tabled. Taylor is working to join the TPD Hall of Fame. A NASTY performance awaits. 

Week 5 Press Release

 The Peaking Dynasty vs ShowMeYourTDs

Date: October 5, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: Tight Grip Palace

Starting Lineup:

QB: Justin Herbert

WR: Nico Collins

WR: Brian Thomas Jr

RB: Jonathan Taylor

RB: Omarion Hampton

TE: Trey McBride

FLEX: Breece Hall

K: Chase McLaughlin

DEF: New Orleans

TPD lost a week ago, but everything that has happened since puts the loss in the rearview. TPD did something incredible on Tuesday. He made 5 trades. Yes, 5. He was on a bender. Many of the players he traded for, were gone again mere hours after being acquired. this is what he does, but even this sent shockwaves through the league. When the dust settled, TPD was basically left with three players for his efforts, Collins, Hall, Harvey. It's an exciting haul as each player represents potentially elite production. This week is their first chance to show their metal. 

At QB TPD has both Daniels and Herbert in the holster. Herbert will likely get the nod due to the match-up, and because Daniels may not have McLaurin. London is on bye, so newly acquired Nico immediately vaults to the WR1 spot. Thomas will have to start performing if TPD is to keep trusting him. Taylor and Hampton remain elite producers, and Hall looks to make waves in TPD's flex. McBride will continue his thing. The lineup played great last week even in a loss. The squad will continue to evolve, but this version looks like a team near its full potential. When TPD is through, the roster will be lethal, like every team before them has been. 

Always lethal is the NASTY. It has yet to win on the road, but all that changes on Sunday. New weapons are at its disposal. Time to have some fun. The NASTY is eager to prove a point on Sunday, given the fact that it will do battle against an undefeated team. Time to show who's the real one because there ain't no such things as half way cooked. 

Player Profile: Breece Hall

Hall has a huge opportunity following the injury to Allen. He is set to explode against a putrid Dallas defense. His assertion to the top of the RB ranks could be swift. this offense will run the ball heavily. Everything is now in place for him to smash. All that's left to do is take it. 

Week 4 Press Release

 The Peaking Dynasty vs Njokus On You

Date: September 28, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: NJOY Stadium

Starting Lineup:

QB: Justin Herbert

WR: Drake London

WR: Brian Thomas Jr

RB: Jonathan Taylor

RB: Omarion Hampton

TE: Trey McBride

FLEX: Ricky Pearsall

K: Chase McLaughlin

DEF: Pittsburgh

TPD made a statement in week 3. he once again scored a massive point Total. Something he has done more than any other team in the league. His 185 points mark the 10th time since the league's inception that he has crossed the 180 point barrier. The next closest team has done that merely 4 times. It speaks to his dominance and gamey managing, because more than 50 of those points came from two players picked off of waivers the night before. The power, skill, and savviness is too much to grasp. No other manager can pull off what TPD consistently does season to season. He now sits 2nd in the overall standings, and 1st in points scored. TPD hopes to keep it rolling in week 4.

He is still waiting on the return of Daniels, but Herbert is more than capable of leading this team. Herbert being yet another waiver pick up from TPD this year. TPD is still waiting on his WRs to get it going. London and Thomas simply haven't performed well, but TPD will leave the light on for them. Taylor and Hampton may now be the best starting RB duo in the league, following Harris' injury. The skies the limit for each of them. TPD is getting some serious 2021 vibes out of Taylor. That year Taylor dominated the league for TPD, and was a critical member of perhaps the best team ever drafted. McBride plays on Thursday, but should continue to show why he is the best TE in fantasy. TPD's unconventional 3rd round pick, for his standards, has been terrific to start this year. The flex will likely be Pearsall, who is a beast, but Worthy may sneak in if Pearsall's injury is something to monitor. 

Always monitoring is the NASTY. It ate in massive quantities last week, as it always does at home. But heading out on the road this week will be a challenge. The NASTY is up for it though. It continues to strike fear in the hearts of all who oppose it. It follows one rule, to destroy the likes of MFFL men. 

Player Profile: Omarion Hampton

Everyone was writing Hampton off after just two games. Oh how foolish that was. Hampton exploded in week 3, after Harris went down. Now this is his team. His skills were on full display a week ago. TPD may have one of those coveted game changing rookies for the rest of the season. Hampton's value will only go up from here. A special season awaits, and how sweet it is for TPD to be reaping all the benefits. 

Week 3 Press Release

 The Peaking Dynasty vs El Pollo Loco

Date: September 21, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: TPD Field House

Starting Lineup:

QB: Justin Herbert

WR: Drake London

WR: Brian Thomas Jr.

RB: Jonathan Taylor

RB: Omarion Hampton

TE: Trey McBride

FLEX: Xavier Worthy

K: Cam Little

DEF: Seattle

TPD secured his first victory in week 2. He knew the Field House's home cooking would do the trick. Trades were made once again, as TPD molds this team to the standards set by giants before them. Big performances are coming. This young team still has something to prove. But when they do, TPD will either stick with the ascension, or look to make big splashes. Either way, no one will be able to stop what's coming. 

The starting lineup is likely without Daniels this week. But TPD had already started Herbert a week ago, so not much will change. Drake is the star new addition, and he will explode onto the scene wearing the TPD colors. BTJ and Hampton will prove the doubters wrong, and Taylor will continue to perform at an elite level. No manager has gotten more ut of Taylor over the years. He just bleeds TPD through and through. McBride has been good, but the greatness is till to be shown. Worthy will silence the doubters too, as he proves his toughness in week 3. 

Always tough is the NASTY. Home cooking is sweet. Back at the Field House is week 3, there is only one outcome. Its roar is a mighty symbol of the greatness of old. A myth, still alive, feasting to this day. the legends remain alive and well. 

Player Profile: Drake London

London is ascending this year. While it hasn't happened yet, there is no doubt this early season slump will be a thing of the past very soon. The situation is perfect for him, and he has every opportunity to become a top 5 WR this year. What better place to mold him into a freak than TPD headquarters. The time is now. A NASTY performance awaits. 

Week 2 Press Release

 The Peaking Dynasty vs Unstopa-Bo

Date: September 14, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: TPD Field House

Starting Lineup:

QB: Jayden Daniels

WR: Brian Thomas Jr.

WR: Terry McLaurin

RB: Jonathan Taylor

RB: Omarion Hampton

TE: Trey McBride

FLEX: George Pickens

K: Cam Little

DEF: San Francisco

TPD lost a heartbreaker in week one. If not for Worthy getting hurt on the third play of the game, he would have won. It was a devastating start to his season, but one that falls in line with the horrible luck TPD has experienced in this league for so long. It is the devil he knows, and he will defeat it. 

Even though the season is young, TPD never rests after a defeat. He made a massive trade today, shipping off CMC after a huge week one performance. While it is risky, TPD felt the time was right. The amount of stress TPD had, monitoring CMC last week, was enough stress for an entire fantasy season. The haul in return more than made up for his departure. TPD now has depth at RB, and adds another quality WR, one who stacks with his star QB. More trades will be made of course, and the week 2 lineup is anything but settled. But overall TPD feels he has set himself up well for the long haul of the season. 

Always set up well is the NASTY. While it came close to being satisfied a week ago, now back home, it will feast and rest in a magnificent way. The road TPD travels is a wild one, but it is his nature. He will discover of what use is the road. 

Player Profile: Trey McBride

McBride played well in week one, but in week two he will explode. TPD hasn't had this difference maker type at TE in many years. Assuming everything comes together around him, McBride will be the separator. This week will prove it. One NASTY performance awaits. 

Week 1 Press Release (2025)

 "If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule."

The Peaking Dynasty vs The Dingos Ate Your Babies

Date: September 7, 2025

Time: 1:00pm

Place: Central Park Field

Starting Lineup:

QB: Jayden Daniels

WR: Brian Thomas Jr

WR: Xavier Worthy

RB: Christian McCaffrey

RB: Aaron Jones

TE: Trey McBride

FLEX: Jaylen Waddle

K: Chris Boswell

DEF: San Francisco

The 2025 season begins where it ended a year ago. Back2back years TPD has finished 2nd place, each time to the team he plays in week one. Drafting this year was difficult given the slot he was in. But four trades since the draft have helped shape this roster. Stars at multiple positions give TPD plenty of wiggle room to craft the perfect lineup, as he so often does. A win in week one proves this year will be different. TPD will make it back to the top. It has been far too long since he last held glorious achievement. None will prevent his ascension. 

Getting Jayden Daniels in the 4th round was something dreams are made of. You could not ask for a more exciting player to have on your fantasy team. Like TPD's ascension, Daniels will rise above the rest. An MVP 2nd season is his destiny, and TPD will reap all the benefits. Having an elite TE is new for TPD. McBride was a surprise selection, but the value was too enticing. Look for him to be a true difference maker for this team all season. CMC is back after a failed trade for him a year ago. This future hall of famer has more in the tank, and TPD will squeeze every last drop out of him. Brian Thomas is already a star, and soon everyone will know it. TPD has decisions to make at #2 RB and #2 WR. Pickens is exciting, but may be benched in favor of a more trusted ppr commodity in Waddle. It will be a game time decision. Warren presents huge upside, but the veteran jones will likely to get the nod in week 1. 

Always getting the nod is the NASTY. Spawned from the fires of a dynasty, the NASTY carries the weight of us all little one. It has powered TPD to three 2nd place finishes in the last four years. An impressive accomplishment, but not nearly enough to satisfy this beast's urges. Come Sunday, the NASTY will roar once more. It is memory, precious and pure. It shines on. Carrying the weight of an embattled dreamer. Drenched in golden coronation, it calls to all. You down with TPD? Yeah, you know me. For what is dead may never die, but rises again harder and stronger. TPD 2025, 

"I knew that whenever I got there he would be there, and then I woke up."

Player Profile: Jayden Daniels

TPD typically starts the profiles off in week one with his QB. This year is no different, but Daniels is different. He is the new mold. Any who doubt him are fools. Why challenge what your eyes already detail as truths. He will prove on Sunday that he is the fantasy difference maker. TPD's memories of this season will be etched in stone, and Daniels artistry will be his catalyst and vessel. Quake with fear you mortal fools. TPD is back baby! 2025 style!
