As Week 3 wraps up, our league took a closer look not just at head-to-head results, but at how each team performed relative to the league-average score. By comparing each team's weekly points to the average across all teams, we gain a fresh perspective on who is truly performing well - and who has room to grow.

Key Takeaways:

Two Dogs continue to dominate, remaining undefeated in actual games and comfortably above the league average every week. Their consistency keeps them at the top of the standings.

50 Shades of Great is the story of the week. Despite a slow start with only one win in head-to-head matchups, when measured against the league average, they emerge as a strong competitor, winning all three weeks versus the benchmark. This positions them for a potential climb in the overall standings.

Spanky Rookies also see a boost when considering performance against the average, reinforcing that even in tougher matchups, they're putting up competitive numbers.

Teams like Mt. Vernon Maulers and Amaraqs still struggle to break above the league-average threshold, highlighting areas where strategy or lineup adjustments may be needed.

By tracking performance against the league average, managers gain a new lens to evaluate team strength and potential. This approach helps identify hidden opportunities and challenges that head-to-head scores alone might obscure.

As the season progresses, keep an eye not just on wins and losses, but on how your team compares to the average performance each week. In fantasy football, context is everything, and sometimes the numbers tell a story beyond the scoreboard.

Stay tuned for next week's insights as we continue to track the rising stars and highlight the teams poised for a breakout performance!
