CFFL 2021 Week 8

 


We are past the half way point of the season and have made it through the dreaded home and home series.  There were six sweeps in the home and home series that have shaped the current division races...After a sweep of the Ferrets, the Crew lead the North now by 3 games, but are facing some injury issues..Bees are in a tight race with the Dragons, leading the South by 1 game after the sweep of the fading Whirlybirds...Krauts keep marching on while Cocktails are keeping pace only 1 game back after they both swept their home and home series against Juggernauts and Sinistars respectively...And the West has become a shit show with 3 teams tied at 4-4 after the Killers swept the Crush and the Legion swept the Whales...

Here is the action from last weeks final home and home games...

Wrecking Crew 26  Ferrets 22 - The Crew hang on after Kyler Murray came up with zero points and a banged up ankle, thanks to Conner's two TDs early.  They had to survive late night attempt to comeback by the Ferrets with Butker and the KC D.  Ferrets were dealt a big blow with news that they may lose star RB Derrick "Rat Tail" Henry for the season with a foot fracture.  Man the Ferrets are truly a curse.

Conner gets 2 scores for the Crew

Chislers 40  Animals 13 - The Chislers played in a foul mood and destroyed the Animals with Allen back as he threw for 14 points.  They were not going to lose both games.  Henderson ran in two TDs as well.  Animals struggled to find any points and only their kicker scored the 13 points.

After a slow start, Allen ends up with 14 points

Killer Bees 17  Warbirds 14 - Well at least it was close, but yet another losing week for the Whirlybirds.  Plus their recent pick up, Robert Tonyan, went out of the game with a season ending ACL injury.  Bees didn't exactly score a lot, but it was enough.  Aaron Jones scored his 7th TD of the season for the Bees.

Aaron Jones has 7 TDs on the season for Bees

Dragons 20  Titans 17 - In another low scoring snoozer, the Dragons were able to out score the Titans.  It was a battle of Dolphin / ex-Dolphin QBs.  Tannehill for the Titans vs. Tua for the Dragons.  Tannehill outscored him 14-7, but didn't get much more help.  Dragons win with just points from QB and kicker (Slye had 13).

Tua gets the win for the Dragons

Cocktails 34  Sinistars 18 - The Cocktails complete the sweep of the Sinistars who might be rethinking his QB drafting strategies.  Mac Jones for the Sinistars had 1 point.  Cocktails running game chewed it up.  Taylor got 6 and Chuba Hubbard got 6.  Lots of moves by the Cocktails may finally be paying off.

Hubbard gets in the end zone for the Cocktails

Krauts 23  Juggernauts 16 - Krauts hung on to sweep the Juggernauts.  Krauts had a 23-0 lead going into SNF and had to survive Cooper Rush, Elliott, and Zuerlein, oh and K.J. "Ozzy" Osborn.  They managed to survive despite 16 points between Rush and Elliott.  Just another TD pass and TD from them and the Juggs might have pulled it off.

AJ Brown scores for the red hot Krauts

Killers 52  Crush 37 - The Killers lit up the Crush dropping a fifty-burger on them, but what else is new for the Crush.  Seems like every week a team scores 40 plus points on them.  Brady again was big throwing for 16 points including another 10 point connection to Evans.  Joe Mixon and Robert "Ice Bucket" Woods both scored twice.  Crush, despite being down only 2 games in the division and scoring points, have declared a fire sale.

"Ice Bucket" Woods scores twice for Killers

Iron Legion 50  Whales 15 - Speaking of fifty-burgers, the Legion dropped one on the Whales who waited until MNF to start scoring points.  Another disappointing week from their top player Mahomes.  Legion had almost all of their players score, including a surprising 10 points from Justin Fields. 

Fields gets 10 points in the win


Player of the Week:  Tom Brady, QB, Killers - 16 points
