CFFL Week 7

After 7 weeks things seem to be right with the world again in the CFFL.  In the North every team is above .500 while in the south only one team is above .500 and in the Eastern Bloc the top 3 teams are a combined 16-5.  Let's see how the key Home and Home match ups ended up...

Cherry's Chislers 57  Wrecking Crew 42
Despite the Crew scoring 42 points the Chislers cruised to an easy victory.  Todd Gurley scored 18 points which included a TD catch from Goff resulting in the nail in the coffin 11 point connection.  Crew were without their star player Gordon who was nursing an injury.  The win gives the Chislers a 2 game lead going into the second half of the Home and Home with the Crew.

Cocktails 49  Krauts 13
The Cocktails have been saying the Krauts were bums all year and couldn't wait to get a piece of them.  Well they stepped right on their throat and don't look like they are going to remove that boot until after next week.  All 49 points came from their Chief players (Mahomes-16, Hunt-18, Hill-6 and Butker-9).  Not hard when your starting line up is all Chiefs except for one player.  What will happen in Week 12?  Meh, one loss rest of the year they can handle.

The Cocktails...

Crush 21  Sinistars 16
Advantage goes to the Crush as they take game one of the Home and Home and take a game (and a half) lead over the Sinistars in the West.  Crush are managing despite two QBs that are having disappointing seasons to say the least (Watson and Carr).  Sinistars will have Wilson back in the lineup for game two and could be the difference.

Watson has yet to live up to  expectations this year...

Dragons 44  Mayhem 14
The Mayhem are just waiting for Hockey season.  Dragons kept the Mayhem winless behind 10 points from Sanders, and 8 from Rivers.  Dragons had to feel good going into the game knowing the Mayhem started C.J. Beathard.  They still hold a 2 game lead in the South over the Killer Bees.

Around the league...Ferrets fell to the Animals 20-15 slipping 2 games behind the Chislers after losing their 3rd straight.  It looked promising starting 4-0 but things have taken a turn.  The Animals winning their 2nd in a row might have finally shaken off their Fantasy Bowl hang over...Juggs dispensed the Roulette 55-25 behind Luck's 16 points.  Luck has 81 points on the season and he and the Juggs are the quietest 5-2 team in the CFFL...Bees defeated the Titans 28-21 sending the Titans to a record of 2-5.  Were the orange shorts a one year phenom?...Bums had it easy with the Killers 40-23 after starting the game with 2 defensive TDs (Broncos).  Injury bug has bitten the Killers with Lynch and Ginn going on IR...

Don't look now but Luck and the Juggs are 5-2

Player of the Week:  Todd Gurley, RB, Chislers and Kareem Hunt, RB, Cocktails - 18 points

Is this future pictures of this year's Fantasy Bowl.  The way the Chislers/Rams and Cocktails/Chiefs are going it certainly could be.  The only thing in the way is if Rams and Chiefs have things wrapped up early and sit their starters in the final week or two of the season...Did you know Gurley has 14 TDs already and this is his 2nd MVP of the Week.  Plus he has weeks of 22 points and 18 twice?  Impressive.
