From Week 3

The South Division inched closer to the North with very strong performances by the once struggling Jurocks & Mtnears. The two divsions' averages now are only 0.9 points away from one another.

As the Jurocks surged, they were able to block the Jagermeister's bid to remain unbeaten. Meanwhile, the North Division's Raleigh Lightning, Onyx, & Lampshades were able to escape a loss.

WEEK 3 Analysis



I did an analysis of each unbeaten & winless team for week 3... Here are the results

Onyx vs. Inferno - The Onyx might have a tough battle on their hands if they want to win over the Inferno. Total points between each team is on ly 32.2 points, Much of the points the Onyx has been able to score is due to their HUGE second game. Watch the Inferno knock the Onyx over this coming weekend.
WRONG - Onyx won

Raleigh Lightning vs. Goo Crew - With a difference of 76.7 points between these two teams, watch with confidence as the Lightning shocks the PTL and continues their winning streak
RIGHT - Lightning won

Lampshades vs. That's My B*tch - The Lampshades have the toughest of all unbeaten teams this weekend as they play the spunky B*tches. It will be a close game, but PTL experts are predicting the Lampshades to come out with a lucky win.
RIGHT - Lampshades won

Jagermeisters vs. Jurocks - In the classic 3rd week battle, these two teams will meet again. After the Jagers beat the Jurocks in the first round of the playoffs last year, the jurocks are hungry for a win. But the Jurocks will have to overcome quite a point difference (71.15), and the PTL experts all agree that the Red and White will be victorious once again.
WRONG - Jurocks won

One the other end.... The LOSERS

PT Riptides vs. PT Bruisers - the Bruisers are the hot team and with 69 points to overcome, the Riptides will be 3 in the hole after week 3
RIGHT - Bruisers Won

That's My B*tch vs. Lampshades - The Lampshades have the toughest of all unbeaten teams this weekend as they play the spunky B*tches. It will be a close game, but PTL experts are predicting the Lampshades to come out with a lucky win.
RIGHT - Lampshades Won

Barenjagers vs. Kryptonie - The Barenjagers are the one winless team that will have a chance this weekend. With only 9 points to overcome in the total column, as long as their team shows up they might be able to finally get a "w"
RIGHT - Barenjagers Won

Culture Club vs. Leviathans - The Culture Club has been very active on the PTL waiver wire & trading block after week 2. But unfortunately this alone will not get them that win they so desperately are seeking..
RIGHT - Leviathans won

 

Week 4


Jagermeisters vs. Leviathans (31.97+ Point Underdog)
PT Riptides vs. Kryptonite
2.1 Spread
Carolina Mud Dogs (Underdog) vs. Raleigh Lightning

As the Jagermesiters fell to the Jurocks in week 3, there are now 3 unbeaten teams remaining. Here is an update on their upcoming games

Raleigh Lightning vs. Carolina Mud Dogs - As the 2003 PTL Champions continue their course towards the playoffs they now meet up with the seeminly unstoppable Raleigh Lightning. But there is a glitch in the Lightning game plan. Many of the players they had been relying on are now in a bye-week. 4 of their most important starters will not be playing this week, giving the Mud Dogs an important edge. We still expect the game to be close, but the Mud Dogs should come up on top. Expect the Lightning to continue their winning in week 5, just not in week 4

Tempered Onyx vs. The Culture Club - Although the Onyx also has starters on a bye week, they are retaining many of their most important scorers. The Culture Club has been struggling to find a groove (mainly because Chicago is in the same boat), and will not be able to stop the Onyx's winning streak, or stop their very own winless streak. Onyx should be 4-0 after W4, and the Culture Club should tie the PTL record of 4 losses in a row since the start of the season

HP Lampshades vs. Goo Crew - in the classic High Point match up these two rivals will put their all into this game. The Goo Crew need the win to get back to .500, and the Lampshades are looking to continue their winning streak. We expect the Lampshades to be able to douse the Crew with some ampage and go into week 5 with yet another win.

And now the losers..... Week 3 still had 3 winless teams. Here is an update on their upcoming games

That's My B*tch vs. PT Bruisers - On paper this game looks like the PT Bruisers would be able to man-handle the B*tches, but in the match up there are several problems that could arise for the Green & Purple (Bruisers). If the Panthers do well, so do the Bruisers, If the Chiefs do well, so do the B*tches. The Panthers play the Packers on Monday night,and with the Pack 0-3 this season they will be playing with all their might to finally win won. In our opinion, so will the B*tches as they finally come up with a "W".

PT Riptides vs. Kryptonite - Wow, you couldn't ask for a closer game. With a spread between both teams of only 2.1 points, it could go either way. So, we have to look at the players on each team. The Riptides seem to have all player in, and off bye-weeks. Unfortunately for them, however, is that several of their defensive players have been kicked off their respective teams, leaving them helpless in certain slots. The Kryptonite, on the other hand, has all but one player playing giving them the ultimate edge. Watch for the Riptides to continue their loss-streak heading into week 5.

The Culture Club vs. Onyx - - Although the Onyx also has starters on a bye week, they are retaining many of their most important scorers. The Culture Club has been struggling to find a groove (mainly because Chicago is in the same boat), and will not be able to stop the Onyx's winning streak, or stop their very own winless streak. Onyx should be 4-0 after W4, and the Culture Club should tie the PTL record of 4 losses in a row since the start of the season

"A TALE OF TWO MANNINGS It was the Eli and Peyton show this weekend in the PTL, with Leviathans fans watching with baited breath for the outcome of the contest. The Jagermeisters entered the weekend as 32-point favorites. The Manning brothers didn't disappoint, either. It seems Eli has at last found his niche in the pros, earning an impressive 38.45 fantasy points (only 2.15 fewer than his elder brother). The two helped keep the contest close. The Leviathans were also aided by another exceptional performance from LaDainian Tomlinson at running back. L.T. amassed 134 yards rushing and two touchdowns on 25 carries, earning him a second consecutive week as PTL's leader in that position. Not too shabby! Of course, the PTL contest came down to the wire with Monday night's Panthers-Packers brawl. A strong first half from the Panthers seemed to favor the Leviathans, but a Packers comeback in the second, helped the Jagermeisters. In the end, the Panthers element in the Leviathans' roster put the coveted "W" in the boys in green's column. The Jagermeisters fall to 2-2 on the season, while the upstart Leviathans improve to 3-1. If the future is any indication, expect good things from the combination of Eli Manning and LaDainian Tomlinson in the Leviathan lineup. The Leviathans' next target is the Barenjagers, who, at 2-2, are favored to win next week's contest. The main reason? Giants' bye week. We could always pray for Drew Brees to get hurt . . . "
