CFFL Week 8 2022

 The dust has settled and the home and home series are done.  Who survived?  Who did not?  

The North split their series between the Crew/Animals and Ferrets/Chislers so no blood drawn in the race to be King in the North.  Crew remain 2 games up on the Chislers.

Blood in the South at Kings Landing...Titans swept the Warbirds/WarEagles to take a commanding 2 game lead while the Bees and Dragons split.

The Juggs are sending thank you notes to the Sinistars who swept the Krauts giving the Juggs a 2 game lead across the Narrow Sea in the East.

Lots of blood drawn in Westeros as Whales swept the Killers knocking them down to 3rd place and the Crush swept the Legion and now tied for first with the Whales.

Here is the action from last week:

Animals 47  Wrecking Crew 15 - This game was over early at 27-15 with the Crew team flat again.  The Animals poured it on late getting 14 points from Chubb "Chubb, Chubb, Chubb" and a TD from "Mrs. Sue" Higgins.  The Crew lack of fire power finally caught up with them.

Chubb Chubb Chubb Chubb!!!

Ferrets 35  Chislers 33 - Ferrets hold on for the win getting a much needed big lead after kicker Tyler "Kick his ass sea" Bass booted in 9 points and a 2 TD performance from Henry.  Chislers did mount a big comeback with Burrow and Boyd connecting on a 10 point connection but they would eventually run out of a time on Halloween Night.

King Henry gets 2 scores and the win!

Killer Bees 26  Dragons 25 - The Dragons lose a heartbreaker that saw Dragon RB Kamara score 3 times!  They had the lead 25-20 going late into Halloween night.  The trick or treaters returned with their bags of candy, gum, and goodies.  Seemed like it was a treat for the Dragons to sweep the Bees.  But instead they got a trick in the form of Amari Cooper catching a late TD pass to give the Bees the win!

Cooper scores the game winner!

Juggernauts 54  Cocktails 37 - The Juggs were all over the Cocktails getting 16 points from McCaffrey and 18 from A.J. Brown as the dropped a 50-burger on them!  "Jama." Williams did have 2 scores for the Cocktails in the loss. 

McCaffrey with the hat trick of scores

Sinistars 30  Krauts 18 - Even with the Krauts having their Blitzkrieg Bills back they couldn't manage more than 18 points.  Murray connected with Hopkins for their first 10 point connection of the year.  Rumor has it, Sinistars looking to move off of Murray and Hopkins and a trade may be in the works. 

Incredible catch by Hopkins

Crush 35  Legion 25 - Crush dominate despite getting only 6 points from their star trio of receivers.  Kirk Cousins' 14 points was huge and needed.  Legion drop to 1-7 and the season is looking bleak.  

Cousins dives in for a Crush TD!

Whales 29  Killers 26 - The Killers couldn't take advantage of the Chiefs and Whale QB Mahomes on a bye.  They had the lead 26-23 with time running out, but Whale WR Isaiah McKenzie would score the game winner on a 7 yard TD run!

McKenzie runs in for the game winning score!

Player of the Week:  A.J. Brown, WR, Juggs - 18 points

Big games next week:

Wrecking Crew (7-1) at Juggernauts (6-2) - Leagues top offense (Juggs) with 275 points vs the leagues stingiest defense (Crew) allowing only 175 points.  Something has got to give...

Titans (5-3) at Whales (5-3) - Both teams lead their divisions.  Whales riding a 3 game winning streak and the Titans have won their last two in a row.
