SEASON 12 TOP 10 PLAYERS

by J Mack

As we gear up for S13, and the awards ceremony for S12 is right around the corner. Let’s look back on S12 one more time and recognize 10 of the best players in the league. This list was put together by 8 of the 10 owners and they listed their 10 best players from 1-10. If they were listed 1 they got 10 points, 2 they were given 9 so forth and so on. Surprisingly only ONE person made all 8 list. Let’s look at 10 of the best individual seasons from S12. 

Before 10 here are the players who just miss the cut:

(Players who got more than 1 vote)

10. RB Ulf Jakobsson (15)

1,507 RUSH YDS 5 TDS

32 REC 219 YDS 5 TDS 

Coming in at #10 is a highly decorated veteran who has had a first ballot HOF career, Ulf posted a career high in rushing yards and attempts and lead the league in rushing yards. 

9. RB Tyler Jones (16)

1,475 RUSH YDS 7 TDS

46 REC 505 YDS 3 TDS 

At #9 we have a rookie who made big splashes game in and game out. Jones led the league in total scrimmage yards for RBS with 1,978 yards.

8. RB Doc Boone (22)

1,357 RUSH YDS 10 TDS

41 REC 501 YDS 1 TD

Doc is your favorite RB favorite RB, he’s an every down back who has a knack for always making the right play and tied for the most total TDs for RB’s with 11, and is truly deserving for the #8 spot.

7. TE Vic Dotson (26)

85 REC 1,421 YDS 8 TDS

1 KR TD

What hasn’t been said about Vic that Vic hasn’t said himself. He may be the best pound for pound player in the league and his production supports that statement, he even showed off a little this season and added a KR touchdown to his stat line.

6. QB Action Jackson Jr. (29)

130 PASSER RATING 4,147 PASS YDS 38 TDS 3 INTS

115 RUSH YDS  

At 6, we have the player many just call Action. He led the league in passer rating and just a side note just to show how dominant he has been these past two seasons he has a total of 73 TDS and only 8 ints.

5. QB Hank Falco (31)

125 PASSER RATING 4,702 PASS YDS 34 TDS 5 INTS

60 RUSHING YDS 1 TD

#5 on the list, is the comeback kid Mr. Falco. He led the league in passing yards while coming in with the 8th most attempts and was 1st in completion with over 70%. 

4. QB Jax James (34)

124 PASSER RATING 4,092 PASS YDS 41 TDS 7 INTS

180 RUSH YDS 4 TDS

At 4, was the engineer of the 3rd highest scoring offense of all time with 35.4 PPG and broke the record for most total TDS with 45 for a season. Jax did this with throwing the 2nd fewest attempts for a QB this season. 

3. QB Tyler Detherage (35)

124 PASSER RATING 4,168 PASS YDS 42 TDS 10 INTS 

64 RUSH YARDS 1 TD 

At 3, is the QB many regards as the best QB in the league, he set the record for most TD passes with 42, 3rd in the league in passing yards, and 2nd in completion percentage. Another big-time season for Tyler Detherage. 

2. LB TJ Blackmon (36)

 86 TACKLES 31 TFL 20.5 SACKS 1 FF 1 FR 1 SAFETY

The only defensive player to make the list and if it wasn’t for the historical season that number 1 had, Blackmon may have been voted the best player in the league this season, he led the league with over 20 sacks and wreck game plans all by himself.

1. WR Kai Kohko (69)

 69 REC 2,148 YDS 24 TDS

Well, well, well. A former OPOY just cemented himself as a first ballot HOF when his time comes. He broke the record for most receiving yards and receiving touchdowns in a season and the true highlight of the season is when he had 9 rec 495 yards and 7 touchdowns outing. Truly deserving of the #1 spot
