CFFL Week 11

Take a look at two games that went down to the very wire on Monday Night Football, who came out on top, and who is in the power rankings this week?

Animals 28 Sinistars 23
Brown catches game winning TD!
After a full day of Sunday play the Animals held a 22-14 lead going into Monday night over the Sinistars who once again got a 10 point connection from Brady/Gronkowski.  The Animals stuck with Dalton, who took a hefty dump last week, and it paid off as Dalton threw for 3 TDs.  Monday night would start with the Sinistars kicker Suisham chipping away the Animals lead until it was all tied up at 22 a piece.  That's when Animals MVP Antonio Brown would catch a game winning TD to hold off the Sinistars and remain tied for first in the North with the Crew.  Sinistars are still in first in the West tied with Mafia.  On a side note these two teams left 25 and 24 points on the bench, including Jonas Gray's 24 points on bench for Sinistars!

Cocktails 24 Titans 23
Bell stretches for the game winning TD!!
Rarely do these teams get a top billing write up but was a good thrilling win for the Cocktails.  Josh McCown actually played and threw for 2 TDs for the hapless Titans as they held on to a 23-18 lead going into Monday Night with Lance Moore vs. Cocktail Labia Bell.  It would turn out that the combination of COCKtail and Labia works well as Bell scored late in the game Monday Night stretching for the end zone to score the game winning TD and keep the Cocktails alive in the playoff hunt.



Player of the Week:  Greg Zuerline, Kicker, Krauts - 16 points
Hey!  Are kickers allowed to have Player of the Week honors??  When you score 16 points, plus your a Ram you do!
Greg the Leg kicked 16 points!

Lacy says "FACE!"
Around the league...Chislers keep their playoff hopes alive moving to 5-6 beating the Bums 39-30 after getting 18 points from his Green Bay Chislers Lacy (12) and Nelson (6).  The Bums' Jamaal Charles had 2 TDs but need another 5 TD performance like he did when they played the Chislers in the playoffs last year to pull it off...

Crew win another one beating the Mafia 29-24 as the Chicago Crew finally connected for two 10 point connections as Cutler hit Marshall for 2 TDs.  Not much else for the Crew.  Mafia got 2 TDs from Mike Evans who has come on over the past few weeks...
Cutler and Marshall happy again

Crush had little trouble with the Ferrets who failed to score their customary 14 or so points and only scored 7.  Whats even stranger those 7 points came from 3 players (Kaepernick, Forbath and Dolphin D).  Crush Matt Bryant had enough to beat the Ferrets on his own with 13...

In a snoozer the Juggs managed to outlast the Mayhem 15-11.  Not much else to say about that game between a couple of brutal teams....

Ryan Tannehill's wife Lauren...
Might be writing more about Ryan...
What has happened to the Bees??  They dropped their second in a row and over the past two weeks only scored 12 and 14 respectively.   The Krauts had no problem beating up on the Bees, hammering them 40-14 led by Zuerline's 16 and Aaron "Jolly" Rodger's 12...

The Dragons took an early 16-0 lead as Tannehill and Sturgis both had 8 points, and held on all through Sunday, Sunday night and Monday night. It did get interesting as the Roulette Steeler D scored an early TD to make it 16-12 but couldn't manage a second TD...

Should be a great finish to the regular season with only 3 weeks to go as most of the Division have tight races for first.  The North has the Animals and Crew tied at 8-3 and will face off in final game.  The Roulette are only a game behind the Krauts for first in the East.  After a 2 game skid the Bees now only hold a 1 game lead over the Dragons.  And in the West the entire division is up for grabs as Sinistars and Mafia hold a one game lead over the Crush and Bums.  In the CFFL anything can happen!!

Power Rankings
No new names yet in the power rankings but some definite shifting of positions

1. Krauts 8-3  - Aaron Rodgers, #2 Offense and winners of 5 in a row, need I say more?












2.  Wrecking Crew 8-3 - Crew goes as the Chicago Crew goes, but helps to have Graham and Gates. Running game weak though










3.  Sinistars 7-4 - Brady and Gronk consistent 10 points and now Jonas Gray. Gray probably won't score again.










4. Animals 8-3 - Animals just find ways to win and have solid WRs










5. Roulette 7-4 - Hard to believe they have the 11th ranked offense with Manning at the helm.
