LAS VEGAS (AFLWA) – It wasn't hard to figure out who the best player in Week 15 was.

MacPherson

Accounting for 11 touchdowns, Grand Rapids quarterback James MacPherson was named the Arena Football League Writers Association's Player of the Week for the second time this season (Week 4). MacPherson completed all but eight of his 43 pass attempts for 388 yards and 10 touchdowns in the Rampage's 84-65 rout of Colorado. He also ran in for a score and had a near-perfect passer rating of 133.8.

His first touchdown toss came less than 2 minutes into the game that gave Grand Rapids a 7-0 lead. His last came with 37 seconds remaining that put away the Crush. MacPherson accounted for five touchdowns in the second quarter alone to put the Rampage ahead 44-24 at halftime.

His favorite targets were Cole Magner (13 receptions for 111 yards and three touchdowns) and Chris Johnson (11-132-3).
