CFFL 2017 Week 1

What a week.  We had teams post 3 points, 4 points, 7 points, 9 points.  A game 15-11 and another 13-11.  Oh and a fifty-burger from the Titans.  In the immortal words of Vince Lombardi, "What the hell is going on out here!?"

In the South...

Yes that's right, the Titans dropped a fifty-burger on the Mayhem 55-9.  With 18 points from both Kareem Hunt and Mike Gillislee on Thursday and this game was over.  This all with no points from Brady or his top WR Julio Jones.  The year of the Titan?...In the other game in the South, Bees edged the Dragons 13-11 in a thriller...meh...  All of the Dragon points came from their kicker Matt Bryant.  It was circus music Eli Manning this week...

Up in the Great White North...

Led by not one but 2 10 point connections from Derek Carr (one to Cooper and one to Seth Roberts) the Crew had little trouble with the Animals.  Well didn't hurt that the Crew got 14 points from their Defense as well (Rams)...Ferrets hung on versus the Chislers 33-26 led by the only QB to really show up this week, Matt Stafford.  He had 16 points.  Rivers did throw 3 TDs but one went to the Ferret counter Keenan Allen. 

Heave it!!!

Over in the Eastern Bloc...

In Berlin the Krauts had no problem with dispensing the Russian Roulette 31-7.  With just one TD pass from Rodgers and no other points from any other player than Vinatieri, who missed a FG and an XP, the Roulette were in trouble.  The Krauts topped off the day with 2 TDs from Diggs "Dug".... In I guess one of the more exciting games, The Juggernauts beat the Cocktails on a last minute TD catch by Kyle Rudolph 15-11...

Out in the Wild Wild West...

This is a division that had two teams shoot lights out (Killers 4 points and Crush 3 points).  The Killers who went down to the Sinistars 30-4 were a victim of Hurricane Irma causing their best players to not play.  (Winston, Jackson, Landry, and kicker Folk).  Sinistars had good production across the board with 8 from Big Ben, TDs from Howard, Gordon and 10 points from Succop....Crush had no excuse for their 3 points.  Russell Wilson, McCoy, Hill, Dez Bryant all with ZEROS.  Bums were disappointed with their production from their RBs Elliot and Bell, both had 0 as well, but they did manage to score 31 points....

Wilson did not have a good day...

Player of the Week:

Kareem Hunt and Mike Gillislee from the Titans.  Both scored 18 points!

Hunt earned MVP honors for the week!
