3FL Notes: S24: Week 12 Preview

Only three weeks remain in the regular season and we have yet to see a single postseason spot clinched. All four teams in the East Division are still in playoff qualifying position, but now they'll have to start playing each other again as we begin the second set of intra-divisional games.

Beware of the byes – there are six NFL teams with a week off in W12.

Top Scoring 3FL Team: Baltimorons - 123 points

Player MVPs:
Taysom Hill (QB,TE/NO/MI) - 32 points
Joe Mixon (RB/Hou/PEP) - 32 points
Saquon Barkley (RB/Phi/M) - 31 points



Predictions Tally

Yahoo! Projections: 39/66 - 59.09%



Week 12 Information

Thursday Night: Pittsburgh Steelers @ Cleveland Browns
Sunday Night: Philadelphia Eagles @ Los Angeles Rams
Monday Night: Baltimore Ravens @ Los Angeles Chargers
Bye Week: Bengals, Bills, Falcons, Jaguars, Jets, Saints



And now the Comm-nosticator’s predictions for week 12:

Misfits, Inc. (-1/2) vs. Lightning
This one could go either way. The Bolts need a win and the byes are not helping. But FitzCorp has some of their own swaps that will need to be made before game time. There are a combined three players going tonight and four in the prime time games that will stretch things out for the entire week.

Yuengling Brewers (-1/2) vs. Spiked Vipers
The winless streak is up to an unlucky 13 games for SpiVi, but they have a real shot at their first victory of 2024 against the Brew Crew. The Beermen were our lowest scoring team last week and they only have one player projected to hit double digits. Everyone will be watching the Sunday night game with the Eagles and Rams split along team lines.

the HAW (-1) vs. Stiletto Stompers
Should this one be close? Probably not. As of this writing the CAPS are 30+ point favorites, in large part because the Stompers don't have a QB on the roster who has a scheduled game. Even if they fix that issue it's not looking good. Regardless of if Mahomes or Goff get the start for Coach HAW.

Predacons (-1/2) vs. Phys. Ed. Phenoms
The Preds are not coming off a great week, but they're still alone in the top spot. Which means this game is way more important to PEP. They're two games back from the eighth seed with only three games to go. A good start tonight would help, but it will also be interesting to see if Pacheco comes off the Phenoms' IR in time for Sunday's game.

Renegades (-1/2) vs. Dumbbums
It's a shame that both teams have last week's highest scoring player on a bye for this game. But it will still be one to watch. The Renegades have the edge in the projections, but don't count out a 'Bums' prime time comeback.

And the game of the week...

Marauders (-1/2) vs. Baltimorons
This is a great matchup to close out week 12. Our #2 and #3 teams have the same record and are only nine points apart in season scoring. And it's even more fun since the winner will take sole control of the East Division. QBs will tell the story and we'll have to wait until MNF to find out the victor.

Good luck this week.
