Good morning everyone, welcome to the Pot Cakes Dynasty League Week 3 Preview. We got a lot going on so we are going to fly through this week. No real good matchups, so why don’t we put the bad teams in the spotlight. We have our PCDL GOTW, matchups and an all new power rankings. Let’s dive into it.
Game of the week.
v.
Bottom Bunk v. Bruce
If I were going to not read a matchup, it would be this one. I would guess the first team to 100 wins, but I am not sure if either will make that. Bottom Bunk has Watson, Mattison, Breece, Bijan and Pickens. That is about it, there is no one on the bench, maybe Bottom Buk plays Justice Hill this week. B.B. spent $150 of the free agent budget on Justice Hill. Either way, it is not good for B.B. Bruce is in a worse spot. Joe Burrow is banged up, Zeke is washed up, Najee’s a back up, and Zay Flowers is all the way up. The point projection is 109 to 84, with Bottom Bunk as a rare favorite. This one will be the worst matchup of the year. Cannot wait for it to be over just like these team’s playoff hopes.
v.
CrossFit v. Daddy Wombat
CrossFit is undefeated, D.W. does not have a win. Both teams have a chance to turn things around. CrossFit just lost Saquan for at least a week. D.W. is a week away from Kamara. CrossFit is still looking good, he’s thick at RB. Mostert, CMC, and a questionable Ekeler. The WRs are Tyler Lockett, a questionable Amon-Ra St. Brown and a questionable Amari Cooper. CrossFit is rolling out 3 TEs, Kelce, Ertz and Freiermuth. That is not great, lot of injuries and 3 tight ends. The good news is CrossFit is going against D.W. D.W. has Hurts, Dameon Pierce, Roschon Johnson, Rondale Moore, Gabe Davis, JSN, Jeudy, Kmet and Higbee. D.W.’s best player in D.K. is questionable. CrossFit is about a 30 point favorite, I think CrossFit gets it done while his team is in shambles.
v.
PeePaw v. Mush’s Mongrels
PeePaw is coming off of a tough loss, so is Mush. This is a must win for both teams. PeePaw has Adams and Aiyuk a little banged up this week. PeePaw has Herb, Gus Bus, Jaylen “there’s a new Warren in town” Warren, J.J. Ridley, Lamb and Mims. What a crew. Mush has James “Grill Master” Cook, Rachaad White, Mike Willy, Christian Kirk, Deebo, Mikey T and Hollywood Brown. PeePaw has the bigger names, Mush has all these guys with hope. It will be an exciting matchup. Things could go either way, but I only see them going one way, PeePaw is a 20 point favorite and he’s going to get the win.
v.
Pistol v. Teach
Pistol suffered a loss and now has to face an absolute wagon. I’m talking dump truck wagon. Pistol is out gunned at QB with Purdy v. Tua. Pistol has a potential edge at RB, Walker, Gibbs, Javonte Williams and Jerome Ford. Teach is rocking Mixon, Rhomandre, Pollard and Matt Breida? I now Breida is getting the nod but yikes. Pistol also has Sutton, A.J. Brown, G. Wil, Pitts and Kincaid. Teach has Hill and Waddle, Higgins and Hock. What a group. I don’t see this thing going well for Pistol, chances are slim that it backfires on Teach, I think Teach wins in an absolute blowout as the 25 point favorite.
v.
Batman v. Touchdown Guy
This is a sneaky matchup. Batman has Lamar, Swift, Kyren Williams, DeVonta Smith, Olave and Waller. Batman may have some issues with OBJ and Jakobi Meyers as they are dealing with injuries. A.J. Dillon is completely healthy but runs like his feet do not work. Batman will need all his guys to click to take down TDG. TDG has the tall Josh Allen, D-Henry, B-Rob, all of the Tampa Bay receiving options in Evans and Godwin, Puka Nacua, James Conner and Kittle. TDG has Josh Jacobs off of bad week, so he’s looking to bounce back. Mike Evans is on an absolute mission to get a monster contract from someone, anyone, somebody has to pay this man. Like Mike Evans, TDG is on a mission to get back into the ship. TDG is a 17 point favorite, I think he gets it done this week.
v.
Trashman v. JonnyDIII’s Joyful Demons
Trashman suffered a major loss last weekend in losing Nick Chubb. That’s a bad loss at any point, but losing him right before playing JD3 is terrible. Trashman has T-Law, Zack Moss, Pacheco, A-Rob, Tutu, Jordan Add, Curty Sam and Mark Andrews. If Aaron Jones is healthy, then this will be interesting, Chrisitan Watson, same thing, otherwise Allgeier is the option. JD3 cannot mess around this week. He needs a big number from Patty Mahomes, something from Sanders and Etienne, the WRs need to show up, Diggs, Chase, Allen, McLaurin, D-Hop and Pittman. JD3 should be a 30 point favorite come kickoff. If Trashman gets a healthy Packers option, this could get close. JD3 should get this done but after last week, who knows.
Now for the all new Power Rankings.
Teach and CrossFit stay on top. TDG’s monster week puts him higher up in the ranks. Pistol takes a big loss on the rankings after the B.B. loss. Batman moves up with a big win. Those are some of the major moves on the rankings. Trashman drops a good amount due to the Nick Chubb loss. It is still early, so there will be a lot of movement early on. No hard feelings anyone.
Well that does it for the Week 3 preview. It should be a slow week. We will see how everything shakes out. With all these matchups being divisions, this is the week to try and create a little separation in the ranks. Only time will tell. Until next time I hope you and yours have a better tomorrow.
Let’s Go!
