Winners of the Week, Week 3 Edition

Hi, I know everyone wants the weekly wrap-up and I will be posting that tomorrow but I am starting something new called Winners of the Week. Every week I will pick one player and one team who I think played very well and feature them in the post. At the end of the season I will count up how many times a player or team was featured if they were on more than once and they will become my player and team of the year. Also you can vote for a player and/or team in the comments and I will see who wins that if they get votes. Thanks for reading and here are my winners of the week:

PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Marvin Jones, WR, Lions: Jones had an insane, breakout week. The former Bengals receiver who was bought in free-agency by the Lions is looking like money well spent. He had 6 receptions for a whopping 205 yards and 2 TD's! CRAZY! IN standard fantasy leagues he put up 32 fantasy points. This is crazy because he isn't even the number 1 wide receiver on the team behind Golden Tate. It looks like Jones will get a bump up in receptions in the future and he could in time become the no. 1 receiver on the team. Tomorrow when you can add players, snatch Jones up right away if he is on the waiver wire. He is a WR2/FLEX from now on and I think he is really good. Jones gets the player of the week award this week!

TEAM OF THE WEEK: Eagles (3-0):
My team of the week this time is the Eagles. The Eagles had a surprising 2-0 start even with a rookie QB and a new coach plus as one of the worst teams last year. People thought they weren't really in the playoff race but then they took down the 2-0 Steelers who are heavily favored to make a deep playoff run. The Eagles didn't just win, they crushed. They held the Steelers to one of their worst losses in the last decade with a 35-3 win. Rookie QB Carson Wentz dominated the offense while the D worked great together to hold the no. 1 offense in the league to 0 TD's! The Eagles are now winning their division and are coming on to a BYE week. Get the rest and then go back out and make the playoffs! They are headed for the playoffs!

Thanks for reading and I will have my wrap-up of the week post coming tomorrow probably.
