Week 3 Current Power Rankings

#1 ↑ O'Brees Wan Kenobi 3-0 (Last: 3) (This Week: Rudy Was Offsides)

O'Brees Wan Kenobi continues to climb the ladder of the King of the Shack Power Rankings, and now finds himself atop the league with the #1 spot, and a 3-0 record to show for his valiant effort. Twice now, Juan has defeated the pre-season favorite Gronkemon Go, after a come from behind victory in Week 3, narrowly winning by a score of 172-165. O'Brees Wan Kenobi will more than likely welcome back the limited services of Tyler Eifert and Jamaal Charles in Week 4, which could spell out trouble for the rest of the league as Juan continues to assemble one of the most impressive rosters in league history. Week 4 will be another great test for O'Brees Wan Kenobi, as he matches up with Rudy Was Offsides, who is gaining momentum of his own, ripping off two straight victories in a row! Who will come out on top!? Player of the Week: DeMarco Murray 26 points

#2 ↑ Ballz Deep! 2-1 (Last: 5) (This Week: Suh Girls One Cup)

Ballz Deep! once again impressed the rest of the league with another dominating performance over his opponent in Week 3. Silly Nannies fell victim to the high scoring attack of Ballz Deep! who cruised to a 172-109 victory and bumping him up to our #2 position in this weeks King of the Shack Power Rankings. Matt was led Jordy Nelson (28 points) and back up running back Charles Sims (23 points) who each led the way with over 100 all purpose yards in Week 3. While Ballz Deep! has proven that injuries do not phase his managing strategies, his matchup in Week 4 with Suh Girls One Cup will give the rest of the league a clear picture as to how effective this team can be. Looking ahead, Ballz Deep! will need to address the ineffective QB position in order to truly be a contender in the leagues playoffs.

#3 ↑ Rudy Was Offsides 2-1 (Last: 6) (This Week: O'Brees Wan Kenobi)

Never underestimate the heart of a champion! Luke has now won two in a row and with a Week 4 victory, could stand alone the league standings in first place for the first time in the history of the King of the Shack Fantasy Football League. With a dominating 229-136 victory over lowly Hernandez Hitmen, Rudy Was Offsides showed his potential to the rest of the league and is interested in more than just a playoff spot this year. Although Ryan Fitzpatrick (-3 points) threw 6 interceptions, Rudy Was Offsides had both the Chiefs DST (32 points) and Vikings DST (25 points) which more than made up for the poor performance of anyone on Luke's roster. Tevin Coleman (29 points) has now scored 4 touchdowns in 3 weeks and has made a statement to the Falcons that he wants to be the feature back in Atlanta. Rudy Was Offsides will have his work cut out for him in Week 4, as his rosters faces some tough matchups, during a key clash with O'Brees Wan Kenobi

#4 - Suh Girls One Cup 2-1 (Last: 1) (This Week: Ballz Deep!)

Missing Todd Gurley yet!? After a questionable trade in the middle of Week 3, Suh Girls One Cup put up his lowest point output of the season and fell to 1-2 Favre Dollar Footlong by a score of 120-155. Suh Girls One Cup was done in thanks in large part to the lack of wide reciever depth that Zac has on his roster. Tajae Sharp and Eric Decker both combined for 11 points in Week 3 while Andrew Luck (13 points) continues to struggle as a consistent fantasy football quarterback. Thankfully, with a 2-1 record heading into Week 4, Zac remains among the top teams in the league and has a great opportunity to show his poise in a Week 4 matchup with Ballz Deep (2-1). He will need to make a few adjustments, but should not have to worry yet about missing out on a chance for a title run.

#5 ↓ Silly Nannies 2-1 (Last: 2) (This Week: Hernandez Hitmen)

Silly Nannies finally felt the effects of the injury bug, after Adrian Peterson (MCL), Willie Snead (Turf Toe), Sammy Watkins (Foot) and Jonathan Stewart (Hamstring) were all ruled out of their games in Week 3. This left Silly Nannies scrambling to make changes to his roster and had to rely on some backup players who were unable to put forth enough points to even muster a competition in Silly Nannies defeat to Ballz Deep! which ended with a score of 109-172. Silly Nannies faces the bottom dweller Hernandez Hitmen in Week 4, if he is able to welcome back some of his injured players he should have no problem moving back up in the standings.

#6 ↓ Gronkemon Go 1-2 (Last: 4) (This Week: Juan Too Many)

Gronkemon Go now welcomes back the highly touted tight end Rob Gronkowski, and the question that will need to be answered is "Was he worth the wait?" Gronkemon Go sure hopes so. While Justin's roster remains loaded with talent and points, the most difficult decision to make is which player to play during any given week. In Week 3, Gronkemon Go scored 165 points in a 165-172 loss to O'Brees Wan Kenobi, but he also had 113 points left on the bench, which had the roster been tweaked a bit, Gronkemon Go could have found himself with a 2-1 record, rather than a 1-2. Nothing to worry about however, Justin will move ahead and make the necessary changes to his team to ensure more victories in the future. With the acquisition of Todd Gurley, Gronkemon Go gets a huge boost in the running back position which will largely make up for his lack at the WR position.

#7 ↑ Juan Too Many 1-2 (Last: 10) (This Week: Gronkemon Go)

Juan Too Many got the first W in the win column in Week 3 and it could not have come at a better time. Facing what looked like an insurmountable deficit heading into Monday night, Juan Too Many looked to Devonta Freeman (31 points) to single handily regain the lead against Team Prime and eventually win by a score of 194-180, putting him in the #7 spot for this weeks King of the Shack Power Rankings. Unfortunately, Juan Too Many now faces Gronkemon Go in Week 4, and will have to do so still without QB Tom Brady (SSPD), and Aaron Rodgers (BYE) leaving Juan Too Many with a tough hill to climb if he wants to improve his record in the coming week. Looking ahead to week 5, Josh will welcome back Rodgers and Brady which will all but boost his chances of winning each week.

#8 ↓ Team Prime 1-2 (Last: 7) (This Week: Favre Dollar Footlong)

Team Prime fell in heartbreaking fashion to Juan Too Many in Week 3, after holding a 180-163 lead heading into Monday night, Juan Too Many pulled away with an impressive performance and left Team Prime in the dust with a score of 180-194. Team Prime left three important pieces on the bench during Week 3, Doug Baldwin (30 points) LeGarrette Blount (22 points) and Christine Michael (24 points) which due to the poor play of Carson Palmer (3 points) ultimately led to the defeat of Team Prime. After his dominating victory in Week 1, Team Prime has now lost two in a row and will need to make some adjustments in Week 4 to get back on track in the winning ways.

#9 - Favre Dollar Footlong 1-2 (Last: 9) (This Week: Team Prime)

Favre Dollar Footlong was able to avoid a third straight defeat in Week 3, as he upset the previously undefeated Suh Girls One Cup by a score of 155-120. Favre Dollar Footlong overcame the poor performances of Ben Roethlisberger (6 points) and Julio Jones (2 points) with huge play of Mark Ingram (22 points) and Colby Fleener (23 points) on Monday night, Favre Dollar Footlong was able to come back and defeat Zac in convincing fashion. Looking ahead to Week 4, Nathan will need a much stronger performance from Brandon Marshall and Julio Jones if he wants a chance at defeating Team Prime this coming week.

#10 ↓ Hernandez Hitmen 0-3 (Last: 8) (This Week: Silly Nannies)

0-3 and the bottom dweller of the league after three weeks. Who would have forseen that the previous league champion would be without a win heading into Week 4 of the King of the Shack Fantasy Football season. Hernandez Hitmen lost a favorable matchup to Rudy Was Offsides in Week 3, falling by a score of 229 to 136, all but crushing his hopes of rising in the ranks of the league before the midway point of the regular season. Poor quarterback play continues to be the factor in all of Hernandez Hitmen's losses as Philip Rivers (11 points) and Ryan Tannehill (18 points) underperformed once again with their poor offenses. Randall Cobb (4 points) and Brandin Cooks (3 points) both put up their worst performances in their careers and now Hernandez Hitmen is left struggling to find answers from all avenues of his roster. Noah will look to redeem his season and win out the remainder of the season and that will all begin in Week 4 against Silly Nannies.
