CFFL Playoffs Round 1 & Round 2 Look ahead

 

Will the dominance of the Cherry's continue?  Two have advanced to the semifinals with a chance at playing each other in the Fantasy Bowl.  But in their way are two hungry teams from the Eastern Bloc.  How did they get there.  Read on..

Playoffs Round 1

Animals 50  Dragons 38 - The Dragons threw everything they had at the Animals, but the Animals appear to be a team of destiny.  Dragons got big games out of Russell who had 10 points. Mostert and Deebo "Dabo Sweeny" Samuel both tallied 12 points!  But it just wasn't enough.  It took a minute for the Animals to get rolling, but once they did during the late window, it was scoring smorgasbord.  Kyren Williams scored. CeeDee Lamb scored and then QB Brock Purdy lit it up with 16 points!  Game over.

Purdy put up 16 points for the Animals!

Cocktails 37  Warbirds 29 - The Warbirds were playing an up hill battle to start after the Cocktails got 12 points from their Raider Defense on Thursday night.  By the time that Jalen Hurts took the field, the lead was too great for even him, and when Kenneth Walker scored Monday Night, it was the nail in the coffin.  

Two scores from the Cocktails' Silver and Black!

Sinistars 35  Juggernauts 31 - The Sinistars had to hang on tight to survive this one.  They had a comfortable lead to begin, getting 12 points from Gibbs on Saturday and then 13 from kicker Fairbairn.  But the Juggs had McCaffrey and kicker "Big" Jake Moody.  McCaffrey scored 3 times and Moody had 9 points!  The game was only 35-31 and the Juggs had Metcalf yet on Monday night.  The owner of the Sinistars had to be on pins and needles the entire game Monday night, but thankfully for him, Metcalf was held scoreless.  

Gibbs rambles for two TDs

Chislers 33  Legion 25 - Chislers cruised to a fairly easy victory.  They jumped to a 20-0 lead after getting 12 points from Addison "Not Mattison" and 8 from Browning.  The Legion would connect on a 10 point connection when Love hit Reed for a 17 yard TD.  However, Chislers would get insurance from newly acquired off waivers Demarcus Robinson,  The Ram WR found the end zone.  Chislers' Midas Touch continues...

Addison "Not Mattison" scores twice for the Chislers

Playoff Preview Round 2:

Cocktails at Animals (-1) - Its really hard to slow the Animals down.  He can go either Purdy or Prescott.  Mixon and Williams consistently score.  Plus they have a plethora of WRs.  CeeDee Lamb and Davnate Adams to name a few.  These Molotov Cocktails hope they have some animal tranquillizers in those bottles.  They need a better performance from Tua than 4 points.  Don't sleep on their WRs either with Aiyuk and A.J. Brown.  

Take the Animals on the Money Line. Cocktails won't be getting 12 points from their defense this week. Animals 38-27

Chislers at Sinistars (-4) - The key to the Sinistar victory will be if he can make the right moves with his line up.  The  Sinistars have a ton of talent, but can't start everyone.  Josh Allen is leading the league in scoring once again.  Gibbs and/or Montgomery will get you points every week.  Chislers are always dangerous when they get into the playoffs.  They have 12 trips to the Fantasy Bowl and 7 titles.  

You got to go with the Chislers and the points don't you?  Too much history to bet against. Chislers 33-30

Last week went 3-1 ATS.
