CFFL 2017 Week 4

It was the week of the blow outs or not very close games.  However there were two games that came down to last minute heroics on Monday Night Football. 

Game of the Week 1:

Killers 25 Titans 22

Kelce celebrating his game winning TD

The undefeated mighty Titans welcomed the expansion Killers to town figuring on an easy win.  "Not so fast my friend!"  The Killers wouldn't roll over led by Winston's 12 big points.  The Titans had an off day getting no points from Gillislee, no points from Julio Jones who actually left with an injury, and only 2 TD passes by Brady (of course one went to Hogan).  Game was 22-19 in favor of the Titans and he still had Kareem Hunt left.  Killers had Kelce who really hasn't done much at all this season.  Surely the Titans would prevail with Hunt scoring at least twice making this game look worse than it really was...Well...not so fast my friend again!  Kelce would catch a TD pass to put the Killers up 25-22, but lots of time left for Hunt to score.  "Kareem still in the Hunt" would owner Collin Freeman state during the game.  KC had ball on the one and looked for sure Hunt would score.  But instead Alex Smith faked it to him and ran it in himself.  Hunt would not get another chance and the Killers came away with the upset victory! 

Game of Week 2:  

Krauts 28  Wrecking Crew 27

Or should I say come back game of the week.  Well to be honest, Crew management saw this coming.  The Krauts were down 15 to the Crew and still had QB and kicker left.  Now mind you in the past games for the Crew on Sunday night needing big games they weren't so lucky.    Last week vs Juggs they needed Carr and Cooper to connect but only got 4 points, then on Monday night needed just a TD from JJ Nelson, but nothing....and in the week prior vs. the Chislers they needed 11 points from Jordy Nelson and Mason Crosby on Sunday night.  No problem right?  Nelson goes out with an injury and Crosby only gets 5 points... Okay I'm done ranting, but you will listen to every damn word I say because I am the one writing these god forsaken articles!



Alright back to this game...Krauts down by 15 with Blair "Witch" Walsh and Cousins to go.  Walsh of course boots in 8 points meaning Cousins only needs to throw 2 TD passes to end it.  First drive for Washington they score on a Cousins TD pass.  Little bit later he throws another to win the game, giving the Krauts just what they need, winning by one point.  Eat a bag of dicks!

Cousins wins it for the Krauts

Around the league...

In a low scoring affair the Sinistars with 18 points easily defeated the Dragons 18-11.  Not often do you say "with 18 points easily defeated" anyone.  Dragons need to bench all its Dolphin players...

Elliott may audition for Mean Machine Cheerleaders

Bums couldn't stop scoring points defeating the Bees 48-22 much to many's delight.  Getting 12 each from Mariota, Bell and Elliott helps.  About time that backfield lived up to expectations, but Mariota pulled his hammy and could be out...

Mayhem did the crushing vs the Crush 38-23 getting point production from all but 2 players, not to mention a freak no time left cheapie defensive TD from the Chief D...

Ferrets started in a hole once again vs. Roulette and could never climb out.  Rodgers scored 16 points on Thursday night including a pass to Adams for the 10 point connection.  Ferrets truly have an uncanny ability to end players seasons or at least send them out for a few weeks.  David Johnson, injured week 1.  This week, Carson breaks leg and Montgomery breaks ribs.  What the shit Tim???....

No one wants to play for the Ferrets

Animals another team that couldn't stop scoring as they hammered the Juggs 47-12. (why couldn't the Juggs only score 12 points last week???)  Cam Newton finally woke up and tossed in 18 points to lead the way for the Animals, plus 12 points from the Seattle D always helps...

Cocktails survived the Chislers 26-17.  This game will forever be known as the "I should have started Zuerlein!"  Greg the Leg had 23 points on the bench and would have easily won the game for the Chilsers. 

Player of the Week:   Cam Newton, 18 points, Alex Animals

Good mood Cam...all smiles

Side notes....There are only 3 teams that are above .500; the Titans, Krauts and Roulette.  Does that mean we have parody in the CFFL?  They rank 1, 2 and 9 in Points scored.  So is one doing it with smoke and mirrors or just with Rodgers?  Titans clearly the most consistent high scoring team, with this past week the only week they scored less than 44 points....Juggs scored 15, 13, 12 points, but one week scored 31 against who?  The Crew of course!  And two Rams lead the league in scoring...whats up with that?  Zuerlein and Gurley both for the Chislers...
