Ok, my game of the week was rather lopsided, but not in the way I expected. Other than that, no surprises this week, except maybe I thought a few of the downside teams would have scored some more points. And now there are five undefeated teams. After this week there will for sure be no more than 4 because 2 of the teams play each other.
Week 3
(1)Red lights vs (6)Shams. This should be an interesting game. Although it appears that red lights have a big advantage going into this game, I think it will be a close one. Both teams have a few star players sprinkled in, but both teams also have some issues. Redlights have some depth issues, where the shams have level issues with some of their depth. Shams are also a little chemistry handicaped. Red lights win.
(2)Bassassins vs (5)Bastards. Bassassins got to play a couple of rather easy teams to start out raising them to number 2 for the week. Both teams probably around the same level, but Bastards are more uniform. One odd thing about Bassassins is that they don't have a punter, maybe they don't plan on punting <shrug>, or maybe the coach uses it as a threat: "don't you make me let the waterboy punt or I'll have someone's hide after the game". Bastards win.
(3)Oslo vs (8)Cards. Oslo powered through the hapless Ravens, but had a scare against Naples. So has Oslo gotten their act together this season? Won't be able to tell until they play a team closer to their level. Oslo wins.
(4)Pirates vs (14)Trawlers. Pirates literally ran over their last opponent and shut down their offense scoring 7 sacks in the process. This week's opponent not as high leveled. Pirates win.
(7)Dragons vs (15)Ravens. One would expect better performance from the Dragons with so many starting 30s, but their first two games have been lackluster. Outleveling the Ravens by something like 18 levels though, they should be able to win. Dragons win.
(9)Doom vs (13)Stallions. Doom held their own against the powerful sooners, while Stallion season not too hot so far. Doom rides the Stallions down another notch. Doom wins.
(10)Terror vs (16)Huskies. Terror at .500 so far. Huskies sporting some new faces have declined a little since last season. Terror wins.
(11)Tofu vs (12)B-dogs. Disappointing season start for Tofu, but they get to put one in the win column this week. Tofu wins (you know that just sound wrong! Maybe beef brisket wins or something like that would sound much better
).
Game of the week: Red lights vs Shams.
