Matt K Wins Blackout

In a week of unexpected booms and busts Matt Kristaly from Hialeah, FL and his team Matt K win Week 2 of the Blackout with 204.25 points.

Week 3 of the Blackout is live now!!

Compared to the field Matt navigated this week well scoring 67% of the available points. Only three of his selections appeared on more than 20% of rosters and six of his players appeared on fewer than 5% including Davante Adams and Alvin Kamara who were only selected by 2% of managers. Here is Matt’s winning roster:

By comparison the most popular roster only scored 47% of the maximum points. Seven of the most selected players failed to crack double digits and only the quarterbacks topped 20. Brandon Aubrey was the only top scorer to also be highly selected. Chase Brown and Kyren Willams both underperformed. Nico Collins, Brian Thomas and Ladd McConkey all did better than last week but let down managers who selected them for the Blackout. Here is a look at the Wisdom of the Crowd score for week 2:

The perfect roster put up a big number this week, 307 points, but they were not easy to come by. Only Aubrey was selected by more than 15% of managers and eight top scorers appeared on less than 5% of entries. Russell Wilson wasn’t selected at all and Troy Franklin was selected just once.

Last week’s winner, THE SHIEKS, made some bold picks but fell flat, finishing 526th to drop to 337th overall. Matt K was deep in the weeds in Week 1 with the 796th place roster but climbs all the way to 30th with his win. Tetairoa McMillan and Wife tops the overall rankings behind a 4th place finish this week and 65th in Week 1. Here is a look at the Top 25 overall through two weeks:
