Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Friday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Mateo Rodriguez Has Career-Day on Friday
Starting off the list is Graham's Mateo Rodriguez, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. On Friday Rodriguez picked up a sack and made 14 total tackles, good enough to set a new career-high in total tackles in the process.
This season, Rodriguez has averaged 6.9 total tackles per game and for the season has 7 sacks. He is looking even better than he did last year: after 12 games last season, he had one sack.
Gamescore: 25.50
Another Game with at Least Five Total Tackles from Davin Magga
Davin Magga continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his 14th-straight game with at least five total tackles. He picked up two sacks and made seven total tackles (3.0 for loss).
Magga must have Graham's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Magga picked up a sack and made 13 total tackles (2.0 for loss) the last time he and the Steers duked it out back in November.
Gamescore: 23.75
Tyler Kirk's Big Game Leads Brock over Graham
Tyler Kirk continued his hot streak on Friday by dropping his 13th-straight game with at least six total tackles. He picked up a sack and made 13 total tackles (2.0 for loss).
On the year, Kirk has averaged 11.2 total tackles per game and for the season has 7 sacks. He is looking even better than he did last year: after 13 games last season, he was only averaging 4.69 total tackles per game.

Ryder Taylor Crosses Big Stat Threshold
The second Graham player making an appearance here is Ryder Taylor, and for good reason. He forced one fumble and made nine total tackles (2.0 for loss). Thanks to that strong showing, he's now averaging 5.1 total tackles per game.
For the season, Taylor has averaged 5.1 total tackles per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had one forced fumble. This year he is already up to four.
