Week 3 Proves CraigS Still Got It

Every week when he sends in his lineup, CraigS (league champion 2001) likes to remind me he “used to be good” at fantasy football. This week, he recaptured his ol’ magic, posting a 463 to win the week, with a lineup led by L. Jackson, Fitzpatrick, Kamara, J. Robinson, McKinnon, Hopkins, Ridley, Lazard, and the Colts D.

My team took second with a 441, thanks to a team featuring Mahomes, Kamara, Robinson, McKinnon, Hopkins, Lockett, Kelce, and Tucker.

Honorable mention to Andrew (434) and Major (407), who both scored over 400 points in Week 3.

This is CraigS’ first weekly win since Week 2 of 2019, and my first payday since Week 8 a year ago. Congrats to CraigS on the strong showing this week.

We added a 29th owner in Week 3. Welcome back to JohnS, who is returning to the league after taking a season off. Great to have you back.

Reminder:
Overall standings will debut next week.
Week 4 is also the final week of the first playlist.

Housekeeping:

We have 29 owners so far. If you know someone who might like to play, it’s not too late to invite them, and with 30 owners we would add one more pay out spot.

Thanks to everyone who has sent payment already. I’m waiting on payment from five owners. $30 covers your initial lineup and first 50 trades.

Looking Ahead:

That’s it for Week 3. Please double check my work and let me know if you see any scoring errors. 

Week 4 kicks off Thursday with Denver Broncos at  New York Jets

Stay safe and well.

Good luck to all in Week 4.
