The XFL returned to the gridiron in Week 3 as teams attempted to separate themselves from the pack with the playoffs about eight weeks out.
After the third week, there is only one team that remains undefeated. The Houston Roughnecks kept up their winning ways with a narrow victory over the Tampa Bay Vipers.
The Vipers are still looking for their first win of the season. Their loss to Houston dropped them to 0-3 – the only winless team in the XFL.
As the DC Defenders get blown out on the road, they dropped to second place in the XFL East. The St. Louis Battlehawks’ win moved them into first place thanks to the tiebreaker – more total touchdowns.
