Week one is over and there were quite a few surprises to kick off the season. The upset of the week goes to the Netthuania Fighting Mennonites who pulled off a huge upset over the perennial powerhouse Takawokonia Plankers. Even if Brady didn't go down with an injury chances are slim that they could have matched the firepower of the Mennonite Menace. Keep in mind the Nites combined record in the PIFF is 13-30-1 over the last three seasons; it looks like these two teams are heading in different directions.
Brawl of the week: The only matchup between teams with 1-0 records next week is the Sparrow Island Maties, who lost the PIFF championship last year. Versus the Scotslandi Kilters who failed to make it to the championship playoffs by one game. The winner of this game will at least be in the top five teams after week two, and since less than 30% of the teams make it to the championship playoffs every win against a winning team is huge.
Team to raise the sails: Pirataly Vampirates. The Vampirates scored a league high 33 points and still had some players in the bench that could have been used for an even better score. Historically the Vampirates have been fading, and last year posted a dismal 3-12 record. However Roethlesburger and Gore look like they are stepping up this year.
Davey Jones Team: The Takawokonia Plankers had an abysmal first week. Their all-star QB Brady got hurt and will be out the whole year. Chad Ocho Cinco got a total of 0 points. And Steven Jackson only got 3 points. The Plankers, who are always a favorites to compete for the PIFF Championship, have fallen completely flat out of the gate and lost only their 6th regular season game ever.
