Steve's Week 3 Rankings

16 ranked teams - Steve Dugas - records through Week 2
Older Newer
Ludke's Merry Men 2-0 Top 3 - 5 Weeks

Defending Champs are off to a solid start and Bowers is likely to return to the lineup soon.

Point Diff. +32
2
Snapdragons 2-0 Top 3 - 2 Weeks

Only scoring 32 was a let down, but I don't see any reason to move them down the board.

Point Diff. +47

Asian Orangutangs 1-1 Top 3 - 6 Weeks

Man can Prescott and the 'Tangs pile up points in a hurry.

Point Diff. +1
4
Fightin' Mallards 2-0 Top 5 - 6 Weeks

Held on vs the Boys by the skin of their teeth. Herbert better get things cooking cause JSN can't keep carrying the load.

Point Diff. +27
5
Memphis Brothers 1-1 Top 5 - 27 Weeks

The Brothers are going to be just fine and I think Goff only has a few outside games left this year and two are in nice weather locals. With injury to Huskers QB the Brothers are back to being the team to beat in the NFC West.

Point Diff. +32

Cuban Refugees 2-0

Its entirely possible Josh Allen has over 100 points after just three weeks of the season. The Chargers are going to get strafed by him.

Apple Eaters 1-0-1

Remember how much of a kick we got out of the 7-6 or 6-7 Refugees?....well go look at the recent Eaters history, team has been stuck on 5 wins a year for a while. Big chance to move on from that history if they can upset the Merry Men this week.

UCornn Huskers 1-1

Hope Kev enjoyed that time travel trip to the early 2000's with the Beans. Been a long long time since we saw a 24-10 score.

Big Boys 0-2

How much longer before Jonathan Taylor says enough is enough and demands a trade from the Boys.

Bear Poop 0-2

This Bear team is kind of frisky. I wouldn't want to see them on my schedule anytime soon.

High 5'n White Guys 0-2

I just can't believe Lamar Jackson can't get his job back.

Point Diff. -32

Market Thugs 0-2

Maybe the Thugs never win as karma for Bob always being so on top of ruining everyone's day with injury news. Players are barely carted off the field and he is gleefully texting away.

Chunky Chickens 1-1

Davante Adams running around out there like its 2017. That was crazy Monday Night.

Mexican Beans 1-1

The win is nice but only scoring 24 points was not. Sorry Bob but you are staying in the basement.
