Finally through the dreaded home and home portion of the schedule. Well dreaded for some (me) but not for others (Ferrets). These two weeks really shape the race for division champs and playoff contenders.
Here is what happened last week...
NORTH - Two sweeps in the North and not the way that was expected. The Ferrets, who typically hate these two weeks, had little trouble with a banged up Crew team. This week they hammered them 49-30 behind 12 points from Goff and 12 from Pitts. The Animals handed the Chislers their 3rd loss in a row and have taken sole possession of first place in the North. The Chislers led the game 38-31 late in the game with only one player left for the Animals. This player was Cee Dee Lamb who would score twice for the win!

SOUTH - Sweeps in the South as well, however these WERE expected. First the Titans remain winless after their loss to the Dragons. The Dragons won 35-24 thanks to 8 points from Lamar Jackson and TDs from Downs and Kittle. They are now alone in first place in the South. The rumors of the Bees as Fugazi were true as they got swept by the Warbirds. Warbirds survived 14 points from Bees QB Lawrence, beating the Bees 34-26. Warbird kicker Seibert kicked 4 FGs in the win.

EAST - The Krauts continued their dominance in the Eastern Bloc, sweeping the Juggernauts, taking a one game lead over the Cocktails. The Krauts' 42-26 win was led by their rolling ground force of Henry and Robinson who combined for 12 points. Henry has 11 TDs already through only 8 weeks! Cocktails drop a close one to the Sinistars 29-26. Brock Purdy's 10 points late on Sunday night was the difference in the game for the Sinistars.

WEST - No sweeps in the West. The Whales got revenge from the prior week loss to the Legion, beating them 45-26. Whales QB Jalen Hurts had a league high 22 points, including a 10 point connection to DeVonta Smith in the win. After a tie last week, the Killers were able to get the win against the Crush 32-27 behind 14 points from RB Rhamondre Stevenson. They are only 2 games back and not out of it yet.
