And now the Comm-nosticator’s predictions for week 5:

Yuengling Brewers (-1/2) vs. Stiletto Stompers
Things are starting to get concerning for the Stompers and they could really use a win soon. In fact, it's been 7 losses in a row (starting with last year's playoffs) for Coach Bev. But the Brew Crew is legit this season.

the HAW (-1) vs. Renegades
The latest news says that Le'Veon Bell is going to show up for the Steelers' week 8 game. So that will be good for Coach Val in like a month. In the meantime it's going to be a tough go, especially when playing against the second best RB in the league.

Lightning (-1/2) vs. Marauders
There are a lot of Qs and Os (and even an NA) on these two rosters. I'm not sure who it going to end up playing but the winner here will be the coach who figures that out.

Spiked Vipers (-1/2) vs. Predacons
The Preds were a MNF injury away from being 4-0, but now they face the other team who lost for the first time in week 4. The matchup is even but all of those Qs tip the scales in SpiVi's favor. However, everyone will need to stay up (again) on Monday night.

Phys. Ed. Phenoms (-1/2) vs. Dumbbums
Last week's 136 points put the 'Bums on the all-time list and made them the league's top scoring team for the time being. Even though PEP has lost three in a row they're primed for a big week, and both teams could use a boost tonight. But will Brady only throw to the 'Bums starters?

And the game of the week...

Misfits, Inc. (-1/2) vs. Baltimorons
Pat Mahomes II finalized FitzCorp's 40+ point comeback last week and doesn't seem to be slowing down any time soon. Couple that with Julian Edelman's return and this is going to be a close one. Perhaps the QB on the other side of the field will provide the MNF magic this week though.

Good luck this week.
