New York (123.66) vs Levee (115.20)
This is the third time in three weeks that New York has led this section off- they're just prone to nailbiting, I guess. But while their team got the bounces last year en route to a 10-3 record and a #1 seed, this year the cookie has crumbled poorly for the Finest. Last week they seemed primed for the victory, as their highest scorer was in play, along with a running back, against a tight end. Issac Redman was concussed on the opening kickoff, AJ Green had a quiet day, and Tyler Eifert went off for Toronto. This week, they have an eight point lead and WR Denarius "Targaryen" Moore against WR Demarius Thomas and LB Wesley Woodyard. They'll have to hope fortune smiles upon them for the first time in 2013- with a 26% chance of victory, it's not looking great.
Silver City (110.30) vs Teamville (150.10)
FC is a long shot to eke out a 3-0 record, but at 24% odds, and with Peyton Manning behind center, it would not shock the world either. Teamville has rested its case, while Das Boot Sebastian Janikowski and LB Kevin Burnett will also wear the Silver and Purple tonight. Cannot question the decision to go with Mario Williams over Greg Hardy yesterday- but it's gotta chafe Ajay to see the boon in his optimal lineup, had he gone the other way.
California (151.16) vs Bristol (169.50)
We'll call this matchup 'Champ Bailey versus the World.' If Champ can score 18.35 points tonight, the defending champions will catapult to 2-1, and Jason's unyielding faith in the veteran (hall of fame bound?) cornerback will be proven just. It's not out of the question, but with his questionable designation, he is likely on a snap count. California might have been better served shoring up their depth at tight end and safety, where they were inactive in week three. Yahoo! projects a 7% chance of victory for the team from the Golden State. UPDATE: Champ Bailey is out. No Champ for the Champs, as they fall to 1-2.
Pretty Much Over: (Yahoo! projects 100%)
Phoenix (181.14) over Pawnee (110.71)
Chicago (138.04) over Hill Valley (105.29)
Toronto (166.07) over Oakwood (105.43)
Orgrimmar (159.70) over Atlanta (101.12)
Best Play: WR Josh Gordon, California (28.80 pts)
Worst Bench: WR Antonio Brown, Toronto (38.20 pts)
For the second time in three weeks, LTP lands on this list with a WR they benched for Tavon Austin, although, at least this time it didn't cost them the win. Antonio Brown had a huge game, with nine catches for nearly 200 yards, and two trips to the end zone. Toronto has a five bonafide WR starters for three slots- Tavon Austin has to be slotted in fifth.
