In the tightest leaderboard we've ever seen outside of Week 1, there's a knot at the top with Keyser_Soze and thewhyteboar sharing the seat at the head of the table!  With most of the leaderboard still in one week striking distance of the top as the first 3rd of the regular season begins to wrap up, it's still anyone's game.
