Week 3: Contenders, Pretenders, and Tacos of the League

Week 3 proved to be the revealing of the contenders, pretenders, and “Tacos” of the league. 3 teams entered the week still without a win, while 3 teams began the week undefeated. Lets dive in to the match results of Week 3

The Game of the Week turned into a boat race as SkeeeYee! destroyed Remember the Titan 166.92-119.52. Caleb Williams finally lived up to his nickname “Superman” as he led the squad with a 40.12 point performance. The Minnesota defense also played a significant role as they posted 35.00 points. SkeeeYee! stands as the lone undefeated team in the league. Remember the Titan falls back below .500 heading into their week 4 matchup against Joe Buckyourself. They are hopeful they can land some players on the waiver wire to fill the shoes of James Connor as he sits out for the rest of the year with a season ending injury. 

The next matchup was another blowout victory from Team Hunt420 as they smacked around the winless RUB ME OUT IM STIFF (really got to change that name). All the right moves were made by the formidable squad as they overachieved their weekly projection by 3.04 points and achieved an accuracy of 96.1% of their MAX PF. The sound manager will continue to rally his team as they begin to pick up momentum going into Week 4.  As for RUB ME OUT STIFF, they will need to swap the gas station pills for adderall so they can get some focus before they get to a point of no return. Some moves whether that’s through trades or free agency will need to be made to stop the free fall.

From one struggling team to another, Team BigBlack74 suffered a heartbreaker as they fell short to the Swifties. Lamar Jackson sacks at the end of his game proved to be the deciding factor for the matchup as it gave the Swifties just enough to edge out Team BigBlack74. Ashton Jeanty continues to let his team down with only 7.80 points this week. The decline continues for this struggling back. This team will go as far as Jeanty goes, so they’re praying they can turn it around Week 4. It is rumored that they are looking to move away from Skinny Batman aka DeVonta Smith, but no trade has been confirmed.  As for the Swifties, they’re above .500 and starting to catch their stride as they face Toxic Tevin’s Eleven next week. 

Speaking of Toxic Tevin’s Eleven, they took care of business against another winless team, Team Sanders32. Toxic Tevin’s Eleven top picks coupled with Jake Ferguson’s monster game was enough to claim a victory. CeeDee Lamb’s injury was the turning point of this matchup which resulted in yet another loss for the struggling Team Sanders32. It is unprecedented to see a high scoring team be winless through 3 weeks, but here we are. They may acquire some pieces through free agency or via trades, but nothing is confirmed as they continue to keep all talks in house. 

One high scoring team that isn’t struggling, Njigbas With Attitude, was coming off a massive blowout loss from the previous week. They continued their high scoring ways and made light work of the once undefeated squad, Team Chenzzzzo. Team Chenzzzo put up a valiant effort with big performances from Dalton Kincaid, but it just wasn’t enough against the highest scoring team in the league. Both teams are one game above .500 and appear as the top contenders of the league. They will look to continue their playoff push going into Week 4.

The once undefeated team, Team ColeWorldNoRelation was embarrassed by Joe Buckyourself by 47.86. Sonic and Knuckles combined for a total of 61.30 points. Team ColeWorldNoRelation had no answer to the dynamic duo. Keeping Pittman on the bench and starting the Ravens defense backfired against them. Let’s hope the manager of Team ColeWorldNoRelation adjusts or he may end up going back to being the Taco of the league. Both teams are trending in two different directions heading into their respective week 4 matchup.

Week 3 was another one for the books. Teams that struggled continued their ways and the cream of the crop has rose to the top. Keep setting your roster and using the waiver wire to improve your team. Good luck to all. See you in Week 4.
