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

the HAW (-1/2) vs. Predacons
These two are matched up evenly but the Preds have half of their team marked as Questionable. And isn't Mahomes due for a breakout game? We'll have to wait for MNF to see if that happens, or if Kareem Hunt surprises everyone instead.

Yuengling Brewers (-1/2) vs. Lightning
Things have not been good for the Bolts lately. They've lost their last seven straight (going back to last season) and another L here would put them on the records page. But they have a chance to turn things around against the Brew Crew, who has lost two in a row and (because of bye weeks) are starting Bo Nix at QB.

Baltimorons (-1) vs. Misfits, Inc.
Matching records or not, the matchups favor the 'Morons in a big way in this one. That is if they can find a single healthy RB and if FitzCorp doesn't outscore everyone again this week. 

Stiletto Stompers (-1/2) vs. Marauders
The Stompers are rolling right now and they are still our only undefeated team. The defending champs have a chance to hand them a first loss, but Saquon Barkley's bye is not helping that cause. Thursday and Sunday nights will tell the story with 1/3 of the combined players in one of those games.

Renegades (-1) vs Spiked Vipers
There are a lot of good players on IR between these two. SpiVi is still searching for their first win of the year and they may have to keep looking. Especially if the Renegades find a TE to plug into the lineup as a bye week replacement.

And the game of the week...

Dumbbums (-1/2) vs. Phys. Ed. Phenoms
They have the same record and their scoring totals are within two points of each other after the first month of the season. The 'Bums start things off tonight, but PEP will have a chance for a Sunday night comeback during the Steelers game. Will it be enough?

Good luck this week.
