While I know DSFL records are often overshadowed by ISFL ones, I feel that there is one which will stand for many seasons to come (never say never though). In season 24 of the DSFL, Kansas City Coyotes tackle Clay Stallworth broke two DSFL records; most pancakes in a game with 13 and most pancakes in a season with 71. Given the sometimes large skill gaps between players in the DSFL, I could see the single-game pancake record being broken. However, Stallwroth's 71 pancakes in a season record is one I do not expect to be broken any time soon.
One reason this record will last is due to the composition of the Kansas City offensive line last season. The season 24 coyotes had zero bot players on their offensive line, a feat which might be a record on it's own. Human offensive line players have advantages over bots in that the tackle positions can be heavier (which aids in blocking), as well as the fact that they generally earn more TPE per update than GM bots would. This led to the group having a higher than average TPE as compared to other offensive lines across the DSFL, and in turn most likely increased pancake blocks.
Another reason I feel that his record will never be broken is due simply to the sheer luck involved. Not to discredit Clay Stallworth and his player build, but he may have come out on the better end of of many blocking calculations the sim does. Each play there is a chance of a pancake block occurring, and Stallworth simply seemed to come out on top more than half the time. One final reason is simply the distance between him and the next person, which is 2 pancake blocks. Meaning, for someone to break it, they would need to get 3 more than second place. To me, this just does not seem feasible in any reasonable amount of time.
