L

51-80
Dragons vs. White Guys (-3.5)
The Alex Smith story has been a good one to start the season, but I don't think this overall production remain consistent all year when this WGs team is relying on big numbers from both the passing and running game of the same NFL team. For now, I think Aaron Rodgers carries the Dragons to victory. Please, no one alert Aceto that it could be the perfect time to take advantage of Steve's love for Matt Stafford, the Lions, and draft picks to steal Big Ben off of him for a silly late first round pick or else the WGs will be the heavy favorite to take the title.

L

46-66
Eaters (-13.5) vs. Thugs
Bobby's Thugs remind us all of his real life favorite team.

L

22-35
Merry Men (-7.5) vs. Buddies
The Lions play at home and CJ Anderson hasn't suffered his annual injury yet, so the Merry Men are in a good position to extend their winning streak.

L

36-48
Llamas (-2.5) vs. Refugees
Aceto, I'm still a non-believer of Trevor Siemian's success. Well, at least until he starts finding Demaryius Thomas in the endzone at least. For now, Derek Carr and Cooper play in what Vegas is predicting to be the highest scoring game of the week, Le'Veon Bell is overdue to explode, and DeMarco Murray is still healthy for the time being, the Llamas roll.

L

38-56
Orangutangs vs. Poop (-6.5)
I'll take the points and the fact that the Cowboys offense has gotta pick up some steam at some point soon, why not against a Cardinals team already down in the dumps about their season?

L

48-55
Mallards vs. Boys (-1.5)
Oh how quickly the preseason mighty have fallen. Chris' team on paper looks fantastic if you ignore the most important position in YFFL scoring. I'm predicting that Marshawn Lynch will be wearing Mallards blue, green and red by week 7.

L

39-63
Chickens (-6.5) vs. Brothers
The Chickens RBs will score a TD at some point, right? What does help the Chickens is that Devante Adams should have an even larger role in the Packers offense this week with the possibility of Jordy Nelson sitting out or at least playing a lessor role in the game due to his injury.

W

49-56
Huskers (-4) vs. Beans
I think the Huskers may have picked up the Brothers Curse. Just when you think they have it all together, they don't. The Beans should get enough production from their WRs to be the difference.
