CFFL Week 12 2021

 


Two weeks in the regular season to go.  One division has been clinched.  The rest are completely up for grabs.  The Crew are the King in the North, clinching the North division.  South is completely open between Titans, Bees and Dragons with the Titans up one game.  East is completely open with the Krauts holding a one game lead over Cocktails and Sinistars, and the same out West with the Killers holding a one game lead over the Legion and Whales.  A lot can happen in the next two weeks of divisional play!

But let's see how things played out last week...

Wrecking Crew 42  Cocktails 41 - This was a slug fest that went back and forth all day long and wouldn't be determined until the final play (almost).  Things got started on Thanksgiving Day with a Jacobs "Jingleheimer Schmidt" TD for the Cocktails, but Crew would counter later with two Dawson "Fort" Knox TDs which was a late substitution for Lamb.  They would match TD runs again from Harris for the Crew and Taylor for the Cocktails.  Thankfully that would be the only TD Taylor would score after scoring 5 TDs last week.  Thielen would get 2 more TDs for the Cocktails, but the Crew would counter once again with 2 from Deebo "Dabo Sweeney" Samuel.  Stafford would score 13 points for the Cocktails. But the game was still tight.  Cocktails led 41-39 with Stafford driving again.  However it would end in a Matt GAY! FG for the Crew to win it with only seconds on the clock.

 Dragons 42  Crush 26 - This game was close of a quick minute.  Crush led the game 26-24 after getting 10 points from Joe Burrow and a TD from "Firemouth" Friermuth.  Led by Myles Gaskins's 2 TDs, the Dragons still had Tucker and Wilson.  Down only 2 all it took was the first score in the Sunday Night game with a 52 yard FG from Justin "Mother" Tucker to win the game.  Now he would score 7 more points and Russell Wilson managed 8, so the Dragons had lots of ways to win this game.  

Gaskins stretches across the goal line scoring 2 times!

Titans 24  Iron Legion 13 - The luck finally ran out on the Legion this week.  Titans led late in the game 24-6 but the Legion were not out of it yet with a QB and a Kicker from Washington (Heinicke and Slye).  Heinicke would only throw 1 TD and Joey Slye would have only 3 points and pull up lame with a  hamstring after a blocked XP.

Taylor threw 2 TDs for the Titans!

Whales 28  Warbirds 12 - The Warbirds returned to their Whirlybird ways scoring only 12 points.  The Whales had little trouble with the Whirlybirds behind Cam Newton?  While it was a Sad Cam day in the NFL it was a Happy Cam day in the CFFL.  He did score 6 points and wanted everyone to look at him do his Superman antics.  Westrbook-Ikhine finally scored a TD!

Kind of Happy Cam...kind of Sad Cam...

Killers 23  Killer Bees 13 - In the Killer Bowl, the Killers defeated the Bees behind 12 points from Joe Mixon.  This is the 4th straight week the Mixon has scored 2 TDs!  He has 13 TDs on the season and is 3rd in scoring for RBs.  He has helped the Killers continue on as Tom Brady has cooled off a bit from earlier this season.  

Joe Mixon scores twice...again for Killers!

Ferrets 53  Juggernauts 28 - The Ferrets had a huge day now that they are pretty much out of the playoff race.  This seems to happen once the pressure of the season is off of them, they begin to play really well and are poised to play spoilers to finish the year.  Leonard Four "Touchdown" nette scored 4 times and Patterson added 2 more.  They dropped a fifty-burger on the now hapless Juggs.

 Krauts 35  Chislers 31 - Chislers couldn't hang on in this thriller that would be decided late Sunday Night.  Josh Allen seems to be back in high CFFL form as he scored 16 points for the Chislers after a 10 point week last week.  Krauts countered nicely with 14 points from Aaron "Sgt. Hulka Big Toe" Rodgers.  The Chislers led the game 31-29 going into Sunday Night and the Krauts only player left was Mark Andrews.  He would eventually score the game winner for the Krauts catching a 13 yard TD pass for the win!  Chislers playoff hopes not over yet but are dwindling.

Animals 24  Sinistars 11 - Not often you win a game with just points from your kicker and your defense, unless your opponent only scores 11 points.  The Animals ended up with 18 points from their Kicker Nick "The Dick" Folk who kicked 5 FGs and a 100 yard kick return from their Cowboy D.  Last week the Sinistars dynamic duo of  Kittle and Kelce helped the Sinistars to victory.  This week Kelce was on a bye and Kittle came up empty and the Sinistars would only manage to score 11 points. 

Nick "The Dick" kicked 5 FGs for the Animals!

 

Player of the Week:  Leonard Fournette, RB, Ferrets - 24 points

Key Divisional Race Games Next Week:
Krauts at Cocktails - The Krauts march up north again from Berlin to Leningrad to try to sweep the Cocktails.  They beat the Cocktails 38-17 back in Week 2, but this is a very different Cocktails team than earlier this season.  Krauts win the East with a victory and a Sinistar loss.  

Iron Legion at Killers - The Killers are looking to clinch the division with a win.  They defeated the Iron Legion in week 2 41-23 with 32 points coming from Brady and Evans.  They have been quiet lately and would like to see a repeat performance.  

Titans at Killer Bees - Well Titans here is your chance to just about wrap up the South.  With a win  and a Dragons loss the Titans win the South.  However if they lose and the Dragons win there is a 3 way tie for first in the South and the Titans would have the worse divisional record.  Last time the Bees and Titans met the Bees thumped the Titans 54-11!

Good luck everybody!
