CFFL 2021 Week 3

 Then there were 2.  We only have 2 teams that remain unbeaten after only 3 weeks.  The Crew and the Sinistars.  The Sinistars have quickly opened a 2 game lead in the East with the rest of the division 1-2.  The three top scoring teams are from the North...

Here is what happened last week in the Cherry Fantasy Football League...

Wrecking Crew 36  Iron Legion 22 - The Crew managed to get the victory despite their leading scorer Kyler Murray scoring only 6 points after scoring 18 and 22 the last two weeks.  The running game is brutal and they left 12 points on the bench.  Thank you Mike Williams for the 14 huge points late in the game!

Williams scores 14 points for the Crew

Crush 44  Animals 25 - The Crush get their first win of the season with an explosion of points.  Stafford threw for 4 TDs and Ja'Marr "Dropsies" Chase may need to change nickname to "Sticky Fingers" as he hauled in 2 TD passes and has seemed to gotten over the dropsies.  The only points Animals scored was from their QB and special teams (kicker and D).  That's not going to get it done.

Stafford becoming a fantasy stud

Chislers 53 Killers 28 - Chislers dropped a 50-burger on the Killers, second time the Killers have given up 50 points.  The Killers didn't have a chance.  The Chislers came out firing from the gun and never looked back.  Josh Allen looks to be back on track scoring 22 points this week!  Cooper Kupp scored twice and is one of the leagues leading WRs.

Kupp is the CFFL leading WRs with 30 points!

Ferrets 25  Whales 24 - The Ferrets upset the Whales, handing them their first loss of the year.  Justin "Pizza Face" Herbert had a huge game scoring 17 points for the Ferrets.  They were able to survive the Mahomes and Hill connection as Hill did not score.

Herbert tosses for 17 points for the Ferrets!

Sinistars 34  Warbirds 7 - The battle of the unbeatens turned out to be a snoozer.  The Warbirds were truly just whirlybirds getting only one TD pass from Lamar and just 3 points from kicker Hopkins.  Sinistars in turn got 14 points from their kicker McManus and that alone would have been enough to beat the Warbirds.

Derek Carr becoming the leader for the Sinistars

Killer Bees 25 Cocktails 24 - A close one over in Russia.  Bees led by 1 19-18 going into Sunday Night, but would get some breathing room as Aaron Jones scored a TD early.  Cocktails had Trey Sermon who would score to pull them to within one again, but the Bees would hang on for the win.

Jones scores the eventual game winner

Juggernauts 35  Dragons 29 - This game actually was a wild one, with lots of drama.  Dragons took an early lead 29-11 behind 13 points from kicker Justin "Mother" Tucker, which included a NFL record 66 yard field goal that hit the cross bar and went through!  It could have been 41-11 if Marquise "Hollywood" Brown didn't drop two easy catches for TDs!  Be that as it may, the Dragons had to try to survive the Jugg's Cowboys (Prescott, Elliott and Zuerlein) Monday night.  It started out okay as Elliott scored a TD, but then on the next drive it looked like the Juggs got an 11 point sideways connection.  It was overturned and called down at the one.  So Dak decides to sneak it in, which was called short on 4th down, even though the replay looked like he might have crossed the goal line.  Well the Dragon's luck would eventually run out, as Elliott would score again and Prescott would throw for 2 more TDs.

Dragons' WR Brown couldn't hang onto the ball

Opening the door for these two to mount the big comeback

Titans 28  Krauts 24 - The Titans upset the Kruats behind 12 points from Tannehill.  It was a good bounce back week for Tannehill who had ZERO points last week.  The Krauts got a modest week from Rodgers (8 points) and their star WRs (AJ Brown, Hopkins and Andrews) all came up blank.  

Tannehill bounces back with 12 points for Titans

Player of the Week:  Josh Allen, QB, Chislers - 22 points
