Brandon Baxter
East End Gridiron Championship is in its first season, so there are no season records yet — but the weekly lineups are being recorded as it is played.
Wesleyan Squad That Laterals is a name about pitching the ball sideways, yet Brandon Baxter drafted from the 5 spot like someone who wants it flung downfield: Amon-Ra St. Brown, then Drake London. Javonte Williams arrived in round 3 to do the carrying. Brandon made all 16 picks by hand with 0 left to the autodraft, which is about as methodical as a Wesleyan gets.

How the awards are decided
- Coach of the Week
- The best lineup choices of the week: the highest share of the best possible lineup (points scored divided by best-possible points, the Coach Rating already on Power Rankings, to one decimal). Ties on that figure are shared. Counted from 2026, because past lineups can't be rebuilt.
- Top Score
- The highest score of the week, to one decimal. Ties are shared.
- Giant Killer
- The biggest upset of the week, judged only on what was known before the game: where each team stood in the standings (record, then points scored). The winner must have gone in at least half a league’s worth of places below the loser (5 places in a 10-team league), and both teams need two games played, so it starts in Week 3. No projections of any kind.
- Narrow Escape
- The smallest winning margin of the week, to one decimal. Ties are shared.
- Bench Blunder
- The most points left on the bench: the best possible lineup minus the one started, to one decimal. Ties are shared. Counted from 2026.
- Heartbreaker
- The most points scored by a team that lost. Ties are shared.
Only regular-season weeks count. Playoff and consolation games never do.
Bench Blunder and Heartbreaker are the two friendly needles — drawn with a dashed ring, and meant in good humour rather than as a mark against anyone.
In 2026: Top Score in week 7; Giant Killer in week 3; Bench Blunder in weeks 2, 6 and 8.
