National Football League in London
Which losers in waiting will become upset masters in Week 3 of the NFL? Wade McElwain puts his tips together to give you a few options for Sunday.
Week 2 was full of injuries, which means week 3 has the potential for some explosive upsets. Which ones does he like the most?
In week 2 Wade said to bet on the Giants to upset the Bears (which they almost did)-so Wade decided not to bet on the Bears this week, even though he does like their chances versus the sloppy Falcons this week.
Are you ready for some fantasy NFL for Week 3? The way that 2020 has been going, fantasy has been a hell of a lot better than reality. I’m here to give you some of my top tips for Sunday in the NFL.
Week 2 was a bit of a shit show, as teams were decimated by injuries to key people. While that doesn’t look good for the overall fantasy outlook, it does mean that some hidden gems could help make your DraftKings line-up this week. Here are some of my top tips to get you through week 3.
Nick Mullens $5100
Jimmy G and 40% of the 49ers squad is off this week, but it’s ok because they are playing the Giants.
I actually like the Giants to win this game, but that doesn’t matter that much in this pick. Mullens is a noodle armed backup that is surprisingly accurate in short to medium yardage. He won’t have much to throw to, but he will be able to get a few points off that crummy New York D.
Justin Herbert $5900
I really like this kid, he impressed last week and was fortunate enough not to get stabbed on the lung by the team doctor. Herbert is facing a weak Carolina D, and should be able to exploit some big holes & rack up some big points. For $5900 he’s a steal.
Jonathan Taylor $7000
This rookie has been ripping it up for the Colts, and he should find huge yardage against the garbage bag Jets. He’s well worth the $7k, as he will probably factor in at least 2 scores today.
Dion Lewis $5300
Saquon is gone, and the new guy is still getting use to the system, so look to see Lewis a lot in this game. The 49ers D is still fast enough to get to Jones, so he will need an option to toss the ball off easily.
TY Hilton $5600
Phillip Rivers and the Colts look to dismantle the Jets, so we should see TY Hilton ripping apart that ravaged secondary. At $5600 he is quite the steal.
Anthony Miller $4900
The Bears will look to exploit the big holes in Atlanta, and the speedy Miller has been a frequent target for Trubisky. This game should have a lot of points, so Miller will probably score a TD in this game.
Austin Hooper $4400
The Browns will be looking to smack up some points on Washington, and they are notoriously bad at covering the TE position. Look for Hooper to blast his way into the end zone in this game.
Hunter Henry $4800
A little pricier, but Henry will be a big target for Herbert in this game. He is a key player in redbone touches, and should factor heavily in this game.
Buccaneers $3700
These guys are fast, so when faced with an O line like that of the Broncos with a backup QB, they should factor heavily in getting to the QB. Loads of sacks in this one.

Have a great day of football!
Google ‘Florida Fight’ and see what kind of results come back, in many cases it will feature a man in a moustache versus a man in a beard. Or a meth head twerking in the streets before she tries to tackle an Uber Eats driver.
This Thursday Night match-up will not be as entertaining as any of those videos.
Thursday night NFL is always difficult to watch in the UK as the games don’t start until 1:30, and finish at 5am. Unless you are actually on meth, it is difficult to stay up that late unless they’re your team and it’s a must see game. This is not.
Florida is always a tough place to play in during September & October. This is when hurricane season is starting to wind down, so the whole place is wetter than the front row of a Justin Bieber concert. This was evident in week 2 when the Bills struggled to move the chains in the moist.
The Thursday night game has a weather prediction of 83% humidity, something we never really get in the UK.
All eyes are on the facial hair in this one, as it is being hyped as the moustache vs the beard, for lack of a better rivalry.
Minshew has been playing some tough football as of late. Sure, his defence was decimated last year, and most of his top talent has been traded away, still Gardner keeps moving the ball.
Fitzmagic has been playing great football as well in the first two games. Yes he’s old, and yes he will regress as the season goes on, but this is classic football for him.
While both of these teams were in the running for ‘Tanking for Trevor’, it seems that both are focused on winning this season, which is nice.
Neither team really holds a strong advantage here, as they are both pretty weak across the board.
Jacksonville’s D played extremely well against the Titans, so it will be tough for the Dolphins to run in this one, as they were very tough on Henry. Fitz’s only hope is to air it out to whoever is left in hopes that can find soft spots in the secondary.
Miami will need to put pressure on Minshew, which they were able to do last week against the Bills. Fortunately last week the Bills were hit by defensive injuries, allowing them a bit more time to spread the ball. Fitz will also need to light up the field to get a good lead, as the Jags have been staying in the past two games.
I don’t really see this happening, as the Jags are feeling pretty good despite the player liquidation sale they held before the season began. There will be home fans at this one, which should provide the punch that they need.
Miami could be feeling let down after letting the Bills get away last week, so this might not be fully motivated in the battle of the swamp.
I like Minshew and the Jags to win again, covering the 3 point spread. I like the under here, as the Florida weather will make it sticky, and anyone who is out of shape will struggle.
Luckily they are both Florida teams, so they should be use to it.
Prediction: Jaguars 24 Dolphins 20
What a week of injuries week 2 was in the NFL, as the Giants had their knees swept, the Bills secondary became singular, and the 49ers became the 9ers after losing 40% of their squad.
It was a trickier one for betting as some teams truly looked inept and failed to live up to their potential. Not to mention the surprises.
Wade caught a .500 with an 8-8, and Ryan continued his losing week with a 6-10.
Here are some of their right and wrong picks.
Wade called the weather being a factor in this one as the Bills looked sluggish in the swamp. Fitzmagic pulled TDs out of a hat and made the Bills nervous until the late game shenanigans. Both guys thought that Buffalo would have one by more, and they should have.
The boys from LA sure got a bolt of confidence when they kept Mahomes and the Chiefs at bay for 4 quarters of great football. The Chargers offered up a blueprint on how to beat the champs, & their D was wicked fierce. Both guys thought that the Chiefs would romp instead of limp.
Wade bet against his team as did Ryan. Luckily it was a 5.5 spread, so the Bears took a big lead and led it almost fly away due to lack of focus & ineptitude. Chicago should consider themselves lucky, as should the guys for hanging in on the line. Go Bears.
TB12 was firing on all cylinders as he romped to his first win in Tampa. The Bucs were favoured and really exploded on poor Carolina, which was good if you were betting on Tampa to win. Easy win, good spread.
Wade is hot on Denver even if they don’t have much except good coaching and few penalties. He liked the Broncos to cover at 7.5 and they did indeed.
Wade had the Falcons to win this one and they almost did. Cowboys were favoured by 5 so it seemed easy that Matt Ryan would torch that D. Too bad his defence was even worse. The ball spun away, but they still covered.

He does look a bit odd for a billionaire doesn’t he. Mark Davis is very humble about his looks, and is probably the funniest guy when it comes to cracking wise about his appearance.
You would think that a guy with that amount of money would be able to buy some sort of Face-Off thing where he could snip the looks of some kid who dies in a saw accident where his body is cut in half, but his young visage is still in tact.
Let’s be honest, the 1% probably engage in some sort of illuminati blood leeching rituals of virgins and child stars, but Davis doesn’t look like he fits the bill.
Once the Epstein flight logs come out, you can bet that Mark Davis’ name will not be on it. There’s only so many times you can hear a model scream ‘eww’ before you realise you need to change the guest list.
Kraft on the other hand probably has foody aliases to hide his nefariousness.
Oh to be rich.
