2003 the hits kept coming for the Chislers. Priest Holmes was back in a Chisler uniform and led them with 27 TDs and a North Division title. They would add Ladainian Tomlinson, giving them the best backfield in the CFFL! They would combine to score 44 TDs! The Chislers would cruise through the playoffs dispensing the Ferrets 48-22 as Holmes would score 3 times and Tomlinson 2 more. Ferrets didn't have a chance. In the semis the Chislers rolled the Krauts 53-19, getting the same result for the second week in a row; 3 for Holmes and 2 for Tomlinson. There would be no way anyone could stop this Machine as they rolled into Fantasy Bowl XIX.

The Wrecking Crew in 2003 began the dreaded trade draft picks for player trend. They managed to get Manning and Marvin Harrison. Through a trade of their first round draft pick in 2004, they were able to acquire Randy Moss to make them a pretty dominating team. Crew would destroy the Bums 61-40 behind 20 points from Peyton Manning with 2 TDs going to Harrision for 10 point connections. They would go on to beat the Bees in the semis 45-31 preventing a Fantasy Bowl XVIII rematch. Now they would face brother Chislers in the second all Brother Bowl.
Fantasy Bowl XIX

The Chislers were a big favorite coming into this game with their RBs scoring 30 points in each of the previous two playoff games. They wouldn't disappoint, as they both scored twice in the second half as they traded blows with the Crew as Randy Moss scored and Ahman Green would score a TD. However time was running out for the Crew and could the Chislers finally come away with the trophy? It was 33-30 time ticking away. That's when Fantasy Bowl MVP Ahman Green took the handoff and scampered 98 yards for the game winning TD with no time left!! Crew win 36-33, capturing their second title. The Chislers lost yet another heartbreaking Fantasy Bowl.
