CFFL 2017 Week 7

We are smack dab in the middle of the home and home series.  Mid season.  Hard to believe that we are halfway through the season already.  At this point everyone is still in the hunt...

The North

In the North its the Animals and then the rest of the stiffs in the North all 2 games back.  Animals survived the Chislers 36-35.  Both teams were led by their kickers, the Chislers with Zuerlein's 15 points and Animals Hauschka's 12.  In the end the Chislers needed just one score from Sanu.  He caught one on the 1 but couldn't get in the for the win...The Crew took an early lead vs. the Ferrets and never looked back.  24 points from Carr and Cooper on Thursday spelled doom to the Ferrets once again.

Cooper and Carr hooked up for 2 10 point connections!

The South

The Titans started 3-0 and looked to be the team to beat.  Since then they have lost 4 in a row and are looking like their old selves again.  This week they lost to the front end of the Home and Home against his brother the Dragons in another 1 point loss.  They almost pulled off the comeback closing the gap to one with an Ertz TD catch Monday Night.  But just like the Chislers they needed just one more, but came up short...Mayhem stay in the hunt defeating the Bees 25-15 led by 10 points from Brees.  Bees drop to 2-5 but still not out of it. 

Stills ready early for Halloween scored 2 TDs for Dragons

The East

The Krauts continue to goosestep through the league this week blitzkrieging the Juggernauts 34-18 to move to 6-1.  This game was close as the Juggs tied the game at 18 when Cooks scored Sunday Night.  However that's when the blitzkrieg started as Carson Wentz went off on Monday Night for 16 points...The Roulette appear to be done.  For the second week in a row without Rodgers the team just looked pathetic.  This week scoring only 6 points against the Cocktails who won 31-6.  Dak Prescott led the Cocktails with 18 points earning player of the week.

Wentz fired in 16 points Monday Night

The West

In the big match up of the week, the Sinistars moved to first place in the West all alone after dispensing the Bums 26-20.  It wasn't hard considering the only points came from Elliott's 3 TDs and 2 measly points from their kicker Bailey who got hurt...In the barn burner of the week the Crush outlasted the Killers 59-40.  The Kickers dueled 18-17 (Forbath and Boswell).  Crush had 4 players in double digits; Wilson-12 McCoy-12 Reed-12 and Boswell-17.

McCoy tallied 2 scores for the Crush

Player of the Week:  Dak Prescott, Cocktails, 18 points

Next week is the back end of the home and homes...The Animals can take command of the North with another win and move to 5-3...Dragons can do the same and if the Bees somehow beat the Mayhem Dragons could open a 2 game lead in the South and send the Titans back to the bottom of the sea...Cocktails get a lucky rematch against the Rodgerless Roulette to keep pace with the Krauts...A Sinistar and Crush win in the West could make this division a 2 team race.
