Week 3 Is Upon Us

Week 3 has arrived. The NFL season is off to a bit of a slow start, but the weeks are still flying. It seems lots of NFL teams are still working on finding their groove. Our Steemit Fantasy leagues don't have that problem. We have been off to a hot start, and only rolling on. Let's check out week 3's upcoming matchups.

Week 3 Matchups


Team Bacchist vs The Bandits

Our first matchup of week 3 is a redemption story. The coach of formally Crypto Patriots has gone AWOL, and as a result has been relieved of his command. Coach Bacchist offered up his expertise to take over an 0-2 franchise. His players seem eager to play and why not, they have been on the bench for over two weeks now. I think they are hungry, and coming for blood. If The Bandits want a chance at snatching away a win, they will have to do better than 0 points from their TE.

Prediction: Team Bacchist 133.33 vs The Bandits 127.20

Stinging Mesquito vs Let Bit Coin Be Bitcoin

The second matchup of week 3 has two powerhouse franchise fighting it out with their 2-0 records. Both teams will be relying heavy on their superstars. Julio Jones has a monumental task against him with his projection of 20 points vs a stout Lions defense. And for Let Bit Coins Be Bitcoins, their QB Drew Brees will have to put up numbers from his old days for a chance at victory. This will be a close matchup, folks. Eyes on the screen for this one...

Prediction: Stinging Mesquito 133.33 vs Let Bitcoin 135.92

Richmond Raiders vs The North Remembers!

The North is looking for their first battle in victory. It has not been a kind winter, err season for The North Remebers! If they want to stave off the shame of 0-3, they must have strong showings from their top two RBs. This is going to be a make or break game for The North. And standing in his way is Richmond Raiders, who will hope for a recovery game from his starting QB Dak Prescott, and a repeat performance from Michael Crabtrees 30 point game from week 2. This too will most likely be a close battle. Let's wait and see who remains standing when the dust settles.

Prediction: Richmond Raiders 127.34 - The North Remembers! 130.21

TX Humidity vs F'EM Bucky

Our 4th matchup of week 3 is shaping up to be a runaway victory by TX Humidity. Bucky is going to have to get some help from players who have yet to have a break out game of the season, such as, Martellus Bennet and Dez Bryant, if he wants a chance at winning. TX Humidity will be bringing the heat with players who have done fairly decent thus far into the season. And if Zeke has a bounce back game, there may be not chance for Bucky. This one is going to be fun.

Prediction: TX Humidity 136.44 - F'EM Bucky 118.07

Hogan's Heroes vs The Three Percenters

This matchup is going to come down to the wire people. We have two extremely close projections, and I feel it will be coming down to one player on either side having a breakout kind of game. This game will be a big one for Hogan, who is trying to avoid starting the season at 0-3, and is going to need some help from Kirk Cousins. With these two franchises up against one another, Sunday can't get here soon enough.

Prediction: Hogans Heroes 139.20 The Three Percenters 138.99

London Tigers vs Steem Spartans

The final matchup of week 3 is shaping up to be an outright massacre if the projections ring true. Right now The Steem Spartans are expecting a whopping 8.66 points from their WR. If something doesn't change before game time, London Tigers will be improving to a solid 2-1 start with Tom Brady at the helm. This one is going to be a dud folks, find a better game to watch.

Prediction: London Tigers 144.08 - Steem Spartans 102.84

Great write up! I'm hopeful for the Tigers. Particularly with the NFL being in London tomorrow! And Carlos Hyde has booked me 24 points already. But both teams have multiple injuries. It may just come down to who actually plays...

Thanks @bacchist for stepping in despite taking over a neglected, 0-2 team! Means a lot!

Oh, NOW I get what you were talking about with my TE getting 0 points. Nothing showed that he was out. This site really sucks.
