*ISFL Week 1 Matchups - platanocat - 01-26-2021 GOOOOD EVENING ISFL PLAYERS! We have an exciting season about to start what with our shiny new sim, fresh call-ups, and spicy hot strats. I'm going to try my hand again at doing my TPE roster match ups for each week again. It's been a while but I think I have a better handle on it this time. So let's get under way! ISFL WEEK 1 Yellowknife Wraiths at Chicago Butchers Quarterback: Yellowknife: 1252 TPE Chicago: 1236 TPE Running Back: Yellowknife: 1547 TPE Chicago: 2108 TPE Wide Receiver: Yellowknife: 2683 TPE Chicago: 1653 TPE Tight End: Yellowknife: 932 TPE Chicago: 973 TPE Offensive Line: Yellowknife: 1997 TPE Chicago: 4011 TPE Defensive End: Yellowknife: 1447 TPE Chicago: 986 TPE Defensive Tackle: Yellowknife: 1476 TPE Chicago: 2507 TPE Linebacker: Yellowknife: 2288 TPE Chicago: 2636 TPE Cornerback: Yellowknife: 2168 TPE Chicago: 3217 TPE Safety: Yellowknife: 1902 TPE Chicago: 1948 TPE Kicker/Punter: Yellowknife: 628 TPE Chicago: 885 TPE TOTALS: Yellowknife: 18,320 TPE Chicago: 22,160 TPE TPE ADVANTAGE: Chicago +3840 TPE Comments: Yellowknife blew away the competition last season, making it all the way to and eventually winning the Ultimus Championship. They must have some serious strategies under the hood to make it look so easy. It seems like defending champions always struggle at least a little bit in the following season. Their very first matchup is against a stacked Chicago roster. Just anecdotally, I took a peek at S27 Season Predictions and most people had Yellowknife as the champions again. I will say though, Chicago had the second most picks to take the championship this year. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sarasota Sailfish at Colorado Yeti Quarterback: Sarasota: 846 TPE Colorado: 929 TPE Running Back: Sarasota: 2187 TPE Colorado: 1504 TPE Wide Receiver: Sarasota: 2475 TPE Colorado: 2607 TPE Tight End: Sarasota: 1510 TPE Colorado: 335 TPE Offensive Line: Sarasota: 690 TPE Colorado: 2422 TPE Defensive End: Sarasota: 2026 TPE Colorado: 2196 TPE Defensive Tackle: Sarasota: 1056 TPE Colorado: 724 TPE Linebacker: Sarasota: 2218 TPE Colorado: 2576 TPE Cornerback: Sarasota: 1577 TPE Colorado: 1787 TPE Safety: Sarasota: 2816 TPE Colorado: 1450 TPE Kicker/Punter: Sarasota: 887 TPE Colorado: 607 TPE TOTALS: Sarasota: 18,288 TPE Colorado: 17,137 TPE TPE ADVANTAGE: Sarasota +1151 TPE Comments: This matchup will be one of the closer ones this week. Colorado has the home field advantage while Sarasota is sporting a small but not very important lead in overall TPE. Sarasota was the third most picked S27 Ultimus winner by my eye. They’re going to have to set the example early on and prove that they can win tough matchups even in their week 1 debut. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Berlin Fire Salamanders at Baltimore Hawks Quarterback: Berlin: 1224 TPE Baltimore: 1297 TPE Running Back: Berlin: 1310 TPE Baltimore: 1642 TPE Wide Receiver: Berlin: 2169 TPE Baltimore: 1808 TPE Tight End: Berlin: 993 TPE Baltimore: 1091 TPE Offensive Line: Berlin: 1873 TPE Baltimore: 587 TPE Defensive End: Berlin: 1105 TPE Baltimore: 1573 TPE Defensive Tackle: Berlin: 1686 TPE Baltimore: 547 TPE Linebacker: Berlin: 1904 TPE Baltimore: 1615 TPE Cornerback: Berlin: 3045 TPE Baltimore: 2226 TPE Safety: Berlin: 930 TPE Baltimore: 1277 TPE Kicker/Punter: Berlin: 543 TPE Baltimore: 421 TPE TOTALS: Berlin: 16,782 TPE Baltimore: 14,084 TPE TPE ADVANTAGE: Berlin +2698 TPE Comments: With a GM stepping down, cap issues, and roster attrition, Baltimore dialed in early as this season’s worst odds to win the championship. Berlin on the other hand spent the offseason stacking their roster, adding those sweet teeps, and are out to prove that they don’t suck as much as their first two season records suggest. I expect Berlin to win this matchup almost uncontested. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Honolulu Hahalua at Philadelphia Liberty Quarterback: Honolulu: 917 TPE Philadelphia: 860 TPE Running Back: Honolulu: 1761 TPE Philadelphia: 1926 TPE Wide Receiver: Honolulu: 1393 TPE Philadelphia: 1631 TPE Tight End: Honolulu: 589 TPE Philadelphia: 1099 TPE Offensive Line: Honolulu: 427 TPE Philadelphia: 1131 TPE Defensive End: Honolulu: 2314 TPE Philadelphia: 1375 TPE Defensive Tackle: Honolulu: 826 TPE Philadelphia: 687 TPE Linebacker: Honolulu: 2146 TPE Philadelphia: 2156 TPE Cornerback: Honolulu: 2125 TPE Philadelphia: 1573 TPE Safety: Honolulu: 2369 TPE Philadelphia: 1642 TPE Kicker/Punter: Honolulu: 1043 TPE Philadelphia: 611 TPE TOTALS: Honolulu: 15,910 TPE Philadelphia: 14,691 TPE TPE ADVANTAGE: Honolulu +1219 Comments: Honolulu and Philadelphia are both competing for that number two spot at worst possible odds to take home the trophy. Their overall TPE totals suggest the same. Honolulu has the not insignificant lead over Philadelphia while Philly owns the home field. This will be another close one and Venus Powers might not be able to carry Honolulu like in the past. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New Orleans Second Line at New York Silverbacks Quarterback: New Orleans: 1177 TPE New York: 929 TPE Running Back: New Orleans: 1321 TPE New York: 1526 TPE Wide Receiver: New Orleans: 2448 TPE New York: 2436 TPE Tight End: New Orleans: 796 TPE New York: 373 TPE Offensive Line: New Orleans: 1288 TPE New York: 977 TPE Defensive End: New Orleans: 1284 TPE New York: 1037 TPE Defensive Tackle: New Orleans: 1901 TPE New York: 1965 TPE Linebacker: New Orleans: 1998 TPE New York: 2158 TPE Cornerback: New Orleans: 2732 TPE New York: 1846 TPE Safety: New Orleans: 1465 TPE New York: 2270 TPE Kicker/Punter: New Orleans: 317 TPE New York: 876 TPE TOTALS: New Orleans: 16,727 TPE New York: 16,393 TPE TPE ADVANTAGE: New Orleans +334 TPE Comments: The New New York team will face New Orleans in a new sim with new line ups, new strategies, new something new new. Both teams managed to make it to the second round of playoffs last season with New Orleans actually making it to the championship. Their TPE totals are almost identical this season, and I know New York is out for blood. We have the home field and sure as hell want to stick it to NOLA. Let’s see if the Gorilla Gang can get it done. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Austin Copperheads at Orange County Otters Quarterback: Austin: 673 TPE Orange County: 1152 TPE Running Back: Austin: 1458 TPE Orange County: 615 TPE Wide Receiver: Austin: 2783 TPE Orange County: 1615 TPE Tight End: Austin: 674 TPE Orange County: 2008 TPE Offensive Line: Austin: 832 TPE Orange County: 2563 TPE Defensive End: Austin: 2412 TPE Orange County: 1567 TPE Defensive Tackle: Austin: 1097 TPE Orange County: 1999 TPE Linebacker: Austin: 3074 TPE Orange County: 2205 TPE Cornerback: Austin: 1834 TPE Orange County: 1883 TPE Safety: Austin: 1621 TPE Orange County: 3814 TPE Kicker/Punter: Austin: 246 TPE Orange County: 161 TPE TOTALS: Austin: 16,704 TPE Orange County: 19,582 TPE TPE ADVANTAGE: Orange County +2878 Comments: Hot of the latest scandal news, Orange County is going to want to prove they are in fact a really great team. Meanwhile Austin has a few devout season predicters that are confident the Copperheads will make the playoffs this season. They’re going to have a rough start playing on Orange County turf against the type of TPE advantage as huge as this one. Orange County will probably be able to pad the fantasy stats this week. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- San Jose Sabercats at Arizona Outlaws Quarterback: San Jose: 1170 TPE Arizona: 836 TPE Running Back: San Jose: 2189 TPE Arizona: 2074 TPE Wide Receiver: San Jose: 2160 TPE Arizona: 2990 TPE Tight End: San Jose: 503 TPE Arizona: 862 TPE Offensive Line: San Jose: 0 Arizona: 2070 TPE Defensive End: San Jose: 1368 TPE Arizona: 1421 TPE Defensive Tackle: San Jose: 1998 TPE Arizona: 2023 TPE Linebacker: San Jose: 2577 TPE Arizona: 2615 TPE Cornerback: San Jose: 2011 TPE Arizona: 2424 TPE Safety: San Jose: 1680 TPE Arizona: 1905 TPE Kicker/Punter: San Jose: 1162 TPE Arizona: 414 TPE TOTALS: San Jose: 16,818 TPE Arizona: 19,634 TPE TPE ADVANTAGE: Arizona +2816 TPE Comments: Just like Austin and Orange County, this is a perquisite to another slaughter. Arizona has all the advantage both on the field and on the TPE sheets. Last season a couple of San Jose players made comments that I never picked them for predictions. I don’t intend on changing that this week. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for reading <3 RE: ISFL Week 1 Matchups - zeagle1 - 01-26-2021 give this man a bonus
