Game of the Week: Anthony Battle (142.70) vs Brandon Saunders (106.42)
All-time H2H: Brandon leads series 11-9
Brandon can take solace in locking up the AFL’s wild card playoff spot despite losing this matchup. Anthony, meanwhile, can celebrate his second straight division title on the strength of some stellar performances.
Brandon Aubrey kicked things off for him, literally, with 25.7 points on Thursday night, becoming the first kicker in NFL history to make three field goals of 55 or more yards in a single game. Michael Wilson followed up that performance with a career day Sunday afternoon, gathering 11 catches for 142 and a pair of touchdowns, adding 33 points to Ant’s effort before the Eagles defense shut the door on Monday night.

Free Agent All-Stars vs Tom Brady Award Winner
Every week, we take the best possible lineup made of players who were available on waivers in the AFL at the end of the week and compare it to the top scoring team of the week in our league. Included percentages for the Free Agent All-Star players represent the percentage of FleaFlicker leagues in which each the player was rostered as of data gathering (usually Tuesday morning).
Final Score:
Free Agent All-Stars – 191.77
Eric Meyer – 150.92
YTD Tom Brady Award Winner Record: 5-9
*The Miami Dolphins were the FA All-Stars defense in Week 13
IR Report
In our league, any player can be placed on IR regardless of injury designation. Once on IR, the player cannot be moved, dropped, or traded for a minimum of three weeks.
After Week 1, IR placements are retroactive to the prior week as long as the player was already on the team's roster but was not in the starting lineup during that prior week. This means those players will be eligible to come off IR after just a two-week stay.
Competitive Lineup Penalty Report
This year, we instituted a new rule requiring managers to start a full lineup of active players. A strike system penalizes managers who leave inactive players, or players on bye, in their starting lineup.
Strike 1: No penalty
Strike 2: Fine of $100 FAAB + move to back of all postseason tiebreakers
Strike 3: Repeat Strike 2 penalty + move to back of every round of next year's draft
Strike 4: Dismissal from AFL
Strikes clear in reverse order, two seasons (currently 30 regular season weeks) after the first earned strike.

Chuck Knox Award (Best Coach) William Battle #15 in his career (t-2nd most all-time)
A week after earning the Hue Jackson Award, William bounced by as the only manager to earn points from coaching in Week 13. Though he cost his team 2.50 points by starting Ka'imi Fairbairn at kicker instead of Nick Folk, he made up for that and then some by earning 11.86 points for starting Patrick Mahomes instead of Josh Allen at quarterback.
Hue Jackson Award (Worst Coach) Jeffery McDonald #1 in his career
Jeffery cost his team 6.91 points and a win by failing on both of his coaching risks this week. He cost his team 0.35 points by starting Josh Downs instead of Jaylen Waddle at FLEX. If that had been all, he still would have claimed victory, but he cost his squad another 6.56 points by starting the New Orleans Saints at defense instead of the Los Angeles Chargers.
Honorable Mention: Anthony Battle, playing against Jeffery, was fortunate to have a much stronger roster for the week because he was able to get the win despite costing his team a league-high 16.98 points by failing on both of his coaching risks. He added Taysom Hill instead of Devin Neal off waivers in Week 13, and Neal had a higher projection than Keenan Allen, who started at FLEX for Anthony. Neal outscored Allen by 3.37 points. He lost another 13.61 points by starting Matthew Stafford instead of Dak Prescott at quarterback.
Managers took a combined 9 coaching risks this week (the fewest of any week this season) and were successful on 1. The league's net point differential was -35.85
To date in 2025, the AFL has a .433 success rate on 180 total coaching risks with a -230.36 point differential

All playoff spots are locked up, including seeding.
The consolation ladder is still pretty wide open. Cory Puffett and Jeffery McDonald are locked into the Snyder bracket while Stephen April is locked into the butkus bracket, but every other manager could move between them in this final week.
