CFFL Week 2

Week 2 is in the books...

Game of the Week I:  Mafia 41 Bums 32

Big Ben threw for 14 points!

This was a shoot out between two Wild Wild West teams with the winner going 2-0 and leading the West.  Mafia had Roethlisberger vs. Teddy "Two Gloves" and Big Ben edged Two Gloves by only 4 points 14-10, 14-10.  Neither team got any scoring from their Running backs (Forte, Hyde vs. Morris).  Both TE matched each other with a TD each.  Gronk for the Bums and Eifert for Mafia.  The Bums got more scoring from their Defense/ST (Browns) and Jackson snagged a TD.  The score was 32-28 in favor for the Bums going into the Sunday Night Game.  Bums had Cobb and Mafia had Crosby.  Crosby booted 13 big points to win the game 41-32!

Jones might be the free agent of the year!

Game of the Week II: Roulette 28 Juggernauts 23
In the second game of the week, the Roulette survived the Juggernauts despite a 2 TD performance from David Johnson of the Cardinals who had a rushing TD and a Kick Off Return for a TD to make the game 22-22 going into the Sunday and Monday night game.  The Roulette broke the tie with a TD from James Jones to make it 28-22.  The Juggs would only get one point from their Kicker Vinatieri, who you would think could have managed at least 7 points.  The win puts the Roulette at the top of the Eastern Bloc 2-0 and the Juggs remain winless despite all those draft picks.

Players of the Week:  Fitzgerald, WR, Mayhem and DeAngelo Williams, RB, Crush, both with 18 points.
Larry Fitzgerald caught 3 TD passes in their defeat of the Dragons 37-28, despite Carson Palmer's 4 TD passes.  Oh yeah, they play on the same team so 3 of those TD passes went to Mayhem's Fitzgerald... burn...
DeAngelo Williams scored 3 TDs in the Crush's defeat of the Sinistars 34-18 as he has filled in nicely as Bell finishes his 2 game suspension.

Fitzgerald was the dagger in the Dragon's heart

Snap!!

Around the League:  Ferrets are starting to look like the early team to beat as they easily took care of the Animals 38-24 as Brady led the Ferrets with 12 points along with Sanders who also had 12.  The game saw the Animals lose Tony Romo for a good part of the season with a broken clavicle.  Lacy also left the game with an ankle issue but should be okay... The Chislers used a little old fashion Chisler luck as they got 2 TDs from their Cardinal Defense to defeat the Crew 33-21.  Neither team looked very threatening as Rivers and Brees have looked ordinary.  In fact Brees is living up to the old "Noodle Arm" tag he got years ago... The Cocktails lose a game they really looked like they were going to win going into Monday night only down 16-11 with Luck, Allen and the Colt D.  All of them came up with goose eggs and the Krauts came away with the victory in Leningrad like they did 70 some years ago... Bees needed only 2 players to beat the Titans 28-16 as Peyton Manning scored 12 and Gostkowski had 16...

"Oh no!  I did what??"
