3FL Notes: S24: Week 14 Preview

Three more teams have secured a trip to the playoffs but half of the postseason spots are still available as we head into the last week of the regular season.

We should be in for another great finale as none of the teams still in contention play each other. It will likely come down to a half game in the standings! And six NFL teams are on a bye this week!!

Top Scoring 3FL Teams: the HAW/Marauders - 123 points

Player MVPs:
Jayden Daniels (QB/Was/D) - 29 points

Week 14 Information

Sunday Night: Los Angeles Chargers @ Kansas City Chiefs
Monday Night: Cincinnati Bengals @ Dallas Cowboys
Bye Week: Broncos, Colts, Commanders, Patriots, Ravens, Texans



And now the Comm-nosticator’s predictions for week 14:

Baltimorons (-1/2) vs. Dumbbums
Not much to see here. The 'Morons have officially clinched a playoff spot and the 'Bums have unofficially clinched one even with a loss here. It will be a good game with both QBs playing under the lights. But the only thing at stake is a little shifting in the standings.

Phys. Ed. Phenoms (-1/2) vs. Misfits, Inc.
In another game with little possible impact, the Corporation faces off against PEP in one that's hard to call at this point. The questions are all around the coaching decisions. Will FitzCorp swap for injured/bye week players before tonight's game? And will the Phenoms hit the waiver wire for a K (or a WR if they don't have enough healthy ones on the roster)?

Predacons (-1/2) vs. Lightning
The North Division is already locked up by the Preds but a win here would keep them in the top spot in the league. Is that the best plan going into the postseason? The already eliminated Bolts will make this one close, especially since some core Predacons players are on a bye this week.

the HAW (-1/2) vs. Yuengling Brewers
Now this one is important. The winner here will be crowned champion of the West and the CAPS have the edge in the projections. They can get off to a good start tonight, but then all players will be done and the game decided just after dinner on Sunday. Is Mahomes going to sit on the bench again??

And the games of the week...

Marauders (-1) vs. Renegades
This season was quite a follow up to a SuperBowl victory for Coach Hoss. His Marauders not only lead the league in scoring, but they're actually third on the all-time season points list–with one more game still to play! They've hit the century mark in eight of their last nine games and are sitting at a W5. Another win here could see them end up as the #1 seed. That's all bad news for the Renegades who are currently clinging onto the last postseason spot thanks to their tie. A win would guarantee a game next week, but they can still advance with a Stompers loss.

Spiked Vipers (-1/2) vs. Stiletto Stompers
What a game this one is going to be! The Stompers need a victory to have a chance at the playoffs. Paired with a Renegades loss (against our highest scoring team), they would jump up into the 8th spot and into a quarterfinal matchup. And they're gifted a game against our last place team that hasn't seen a win in 15 straight games. But not so fast. It's looking like a streak breaker as the matchups favor SpiVi to end the season on a positive note and play spoiler against their West Division rivals. And a player in every NFL time slot will extend the drama all the way to Monday night.

Good luck this week!
