Level with the opponent
Solid ink is a week won, halftone a week lost, and the gold chip under week sixteen is the championship. The axis is not broken: week 1, a 61-point win, is the largest margin either way in the regular season, and no win came by under five points. Margins run across all 16 weeks, playoffs included. The rail under the week numbers carries the result: filled disc a win, hollow a loss, gold the championship week, and an ink ring the highest score in the league that week. The ring is a regular-season measure, so the playoff weeks carry none. The Aaron it Out! posted the league's highest score three times, and Reggie's two times.

Ed M.'s second title came out of a season that never settled. Aaron it Out! finished 8-6 and second on points; Dave Su.'s Reggie's went 12-2 and had beaten them by 23 in week five. The Aaron it Out! roster kept changing hands all autumn, Lamar Jackson leading it in four weeks, Aaron Rodgers in four more, Davante Adams twice, Adam Thielen twice, Darren Waller and Aaron Jones and Austin Ekeler and Justin Tucker once apiece. Ten different men led that team in scoring across sixteen weeks. Nobody carried it and everybody carried it.

The final was won in one evening. Aaron it Out! led by 24 after Saturday, then lost it: down 17 after the one o'clock window, down 7 after four. Then Sunday night arrived and Davante Adams scored 32, Aaron Rodgers 28 and Aaron Jones 11, seventy-one points against ten from Derrick Henry, and a seven-point deficit became a fifty-four point lead in three hours. Dave Su. had Josh Allen left on Monday and Josh Allen went for 36, one of the great losing performances in this archive, and it finished 125 to 118. Adams was worth 113 across the season, Henry 109. They were the two best players in the game and they were on opposite sides of six points.

PAR against replacement, ink above the line and halftone below, thickness is raw fantasy points, and a gap is a week he did not start; benched, injured and not-yet-acquired are three stories drawn identically and the footnote says so. The newsprint band is the playoff weeks and the gold dot is the final. Replacement is the mean of every started player at that position, league-wide, that week; in playoff weeks, when only the surviving teams field a lineup, it is carried from that season's regular-season mean instead.
