Week 3 Preview

GAME OF THE WEEK

Fightin' Bitin' Beavers (2-1) @ Rednecks (2-0-1)

Fresh off of 2 consecutive wins, the Beavers travel to meet the undefeated Rednecks. The Rednecks have been something of an escape-artist the last few weeks, mostly winning because the other team really didn’t do much. This is the week it catches up as A.P. chocks up a monster day for Steve.

Prediction: Beavers make it 3 in a row.

Beavers 31 – Rednecks 23

Murrysville Drow (1-2) @ Bill's Team (1-2)

Aaron Rodgers and company visit Bill’s Team with rookie QB Newton at the helm. Both teams have had their ups and down, with Rogers the only consistent performer for Doug, while Chris Johnson continues to be a no-show for Bill.  Drow actually had a decent week last week and I like Matthews to contribute to this game, while Newton still worries me for Bill.

Prediction:  Drow gets back on track.

Drow 28 – Bill 20

N.Y. Hamburglers (0-3) @ Export Flannel (1-1-1)

The struggling Hamburglers come to town and face an improving Flannel squad.  Jamie’s RB issues persist while Eli got it going last week for Clay. Look for more of the same from Manning and more choice matchups for Flannel, while the Hamburglers still struggle without a good RB and defense that cannot seem to get it going.

Prediction:  Flannel in a rout.

Flannel 40 – Hamburglers 10

 

Roger's Ramjets (2-1) @ Capo Di Tutti Capi (1 -2)

The Ramjet’s bring the league leading offense to Capo, led by Brees. Chris’s team has actually been pretty good; they have just had the misfortune of running into a hot team. On Roger’s side, they have had 2 very good games with 1 bad one in the middle. I think Roger stays on this rollercoaster and has a down week while Brees goes nuts this week.

Prediction: Capo takes it.

Capo 35 – Ramjets 27

Iron City Lagers (2-1) @ Old No. 7 (1-2)

The whiskey bottle welcomes the Detroit Lagers this week. Both teams have been inconsistent, with Tim’s team getting the better end of the matchups to date. On paper, it appears to be an easier skid for the Lagers, but I got a feeling the matchups are a little closer than they may appears. Look for Stafford and Johnson to get their numbers, but for Jason’s team to get the better numbers behind an unexpected strong game from Michael Turner and Seabass will knock in 2 from over 50.

Prediction: I’ll take 7 at home.

Bottle 27 – Lagers 22

Mighty Midtowne Mimes (1-2) @ Malleus Maleficarum (3– 0)

Tom Brady and Malleus’s league-leading defense await Philip Rivers and the rest of the inconsistent Mimes. Haydn has been pretty unstoppable behind a record setting pace from Brady, while Darin’s Mimes have been up and down so far. Even though Payton Hillis is back from his strep throat, it will not be nearly enough as even MJD gets in on the offensive explosion this week for Malleus.

Prediction: Malleus remains undefeated.

Malleus 42 – Mimes 18
