CFFL40 Week 5

 

Week 5 in the CFFL...

Wrecking Crew 44  Killers 12

The Crew easily dispensed the struggling Killers.  Ever since Tua went down the Killers have been shuffling their line up each week trying to get something going.  This week the only player to score for them was their kicker McLaughlin.  Tee "Mrs. Sue" Higgins finally showed some flashes catching two TDs for the Crew.

Higgins scores twice for the Crew

Crush 29  Ferrets 22

Ferrets have spread the word that the Annual Ferret Fire Sale is now on.  Any player is up for trade after their loss to the Crush.  Justin Fields got the nod over Rodgers and scored 8 points for the Crush, while Garrett Wilson and Freiermuth "Firemouth!" both caught TD passes in the win.

Fields throws 2 TDs for the Crush

Chislers 52  Iron Legion 32

The Chislers dropped a fifty-burger on the Legion but not thanks to Josh Allen who only had 4 points.  Brian Robinson and Ja'Marr Chase both scored 2 TDs for the Chislers.  It was such a Chislers day of scoring that we didn't even notice Smith-Njigba scored too!

Animals 15  Whales 10

Well if you are going to play the Whales, this was the week to do it.  On bye for the Whales: Hurts, Barkley, DeVonta Smith, Dallas Goedert.  Guess that's what happens when you all your eggs in one basket.   Animals only needed 15 points to win.  Caleb Williams led the Animals with 8 points.

Animals get 8 points from Williams

Dragons 37  Sinistars 21

Lamar Jackson posted his third straight week in double digits helping guide the Dragons to victory over the Sinistars.  Plus Kyren Williams scored in his 5th straight week.  Some nice consistency building over there  with the Dragons.  After scoring three weeks in a row, Breece Hall for the Sinistars has basically disappeared the past two weeks.

Jackson scores 16 points for Dragons!

Cocktails 58  Titans 18

Cocktails rolled to a 40 point win over the Titans.  They started Tucker Kraft to go along with Jordan Love and Love's 2 TD passes went to Kraft for a quick 20 points!  Mooney "Money, Money" scored twice too.  Plus the defense.  And Chuba "Chewbacca" Hubbard scampered for a 38 yard TD.  Pretty impressive, even if it was against the Titans.

Impressive move starting Tucker Kraft!

Juggernauts 41 Warbirds 20

Joe Flacco not only still has what it takes to help NFL teams win, but he has what it takes to help CFFL teams win.  This week he scored 12 points for the Juggs to help them defeat the Warbirds 41-20.  Juggs also got 12 points from D.J. "T.C." Moore "Bookkeeping".  Warbirds lineup woes continue as Burrow scored 20 points on his bench...

The next Johnny Unitas??

Killer Bees 25  Krauts 24

How in the hell did the Krauts not win this game?  After the Bees returned a blocked field goal for a TD, the Krauts trailed 25-18 with Mahomes, Worthy, and Kelce all going Monday night.  Seemed like a sure thing the Krauts would win this game with all those guys playing.  Worthy would score on a run of all things making the score 25-24.  Kelce would get a shovel pass from Mahomes only to get stuffed at the goal line.  Mahomes and Kelce would both end with zero points and the Bees would hand the Krauts their first loss of the season!

Giants returned blocked FG for TD for the Bees!

Player of the Week:  Lamar Jackson, QB, Dragons - 16 points
