Logjam on the leaderboard in Week#10 ... Just when we thought we had it figured out

Suddenly there are 5 teams at 6-4! There are 3 teams just outside the fence at 5-5 looking to make the playoffs . Competition is fierce. The Fab Five continued their dominance by winning 2 of 3 intra-division games this week.

Chet and Brownie could be the wild card. They ain't winning, but they ain't exactly rolling over either. Both teams posted over 80 in week #10. A loss to either of these teams could knock you out of the playoffs. But if you do lose to one of these spoilers you are probably a fraud anyway.

PITBULLS (6-4) @ KOYOTES (6-4) 92-82 | The Pitbulls end a 2 game skid and the Koyotes to continue slump (L2). Not even the extra touchdown from McNabb to Buckhalter could help the Koyotes. Michael missed out on Chad Johnson's coming out party. He left 39 points on the bench.

SONIC FORCE (5-5) @ OB'S METHOD (5-5) 62-55 | The Force has won 2 in a row and OB has lost 2 in a row. Both guys are on the playoff bubble. Neither team looked impressive in this match-up. TSSF isn't scaring anyone with a QB like Eli Manning (-2).

RAIDERS (6-4) @ DDS FLYIN' TIGERS (6-4) 90 82 | Nobody is hotter that the Raiders (W4). He keeps finding away to win. The Raiders could be a formidable playoff opponent when Shaun Alexander returns.The Tigers panicked and benched Rex Grossman (31). Sometimes you can be too smart for your own good.

RAZORBACKS (6-4) @ JETS (3-7) 117-92 | Its nice to have LT (40). The RB has had 3 or more TDs in 3 straight games (all wins for Rando). The Razorbacks are 2nd in points scored (PF 893), but overdue for a loss. Tomlinson can't score 3 TD's every week. Can he?

SANDBAGGERS (2-8) @ HITMEN (5-5) 81-94 | I big day for Donald Driver (26) wasn't enuff for Brownie. The Hitmen were powered by Willie Parker (35) 2 TDs and 210 yards rushing. They match-up against the OB Method in Week#11 in a must win game for both 5-5 teams.

Koyotes and Tigers rule in Week#9

Four weeks to go an the Koyotes and Tigers have hung on to the leads in their divisions. But there are fours teams within a game of the division lead. This has been an extremely competitive year. At this point Brownie's Sandbaggers are the only team guaranteed to have a losing season. Chet's comeback has started. He can still run the table for a playoff berth :).
KOYOTES (6-3) @ RAIDERS (5-4) 60-107 | Pamela wasn't ready for McNabbs BYE week. Romo is HOT.The winner of 3 straight has climbed into 2nd place.

HITMEN (4-5) @ RAZORBACKS (5-4) 90 - 101 | Rando prevails in a pivotal match-up of 4-4 teams. Seattle sub Senaca Wallace (17) put the Razorbacks over the top in MNF. Craig has been snake bitten. He leads the division in PF and PA, but that hasn't translated into Wins. He needs a win in a bad way. Oh, look here! He plays the Sandbaggers next week. Just what the doctor ordered.

SONIC FORCE (4-5) @ SANDBAGGERS (2-7) 83-82 | The baggers took the Sonic Force to task, but the Force steal one. Brownie needed Dion Branch to score 1 stinkin' point on MNF for a win.


JETS (3-6) @ PITBULLS (5-4) 79-53 | The Pitbulls have lost 2 in a row. No longer the front runner. The magic is gone. Now the match up next week with the Koyotes is a "must win".

OB'S METHOD (5-4) @ DDS FLYIN' TIGERS (6-3) 61-107 | Damn, how does he do that? The Tigers rebound from last weeks loss to win a pivotal division match up. OB really needed that win, but 61 points ain't gonna do it brother.

Koyotes break from the pack in Week#8

Week #8 posted the highest scoring totals this year. Half the teams scored over 100. The Koyotes overcame a pathetic performance by McNabb (9) to extend thier lead in the Fab Five. Larry Johnson picked up the slack with 4 TDs (42) SONIC FORCE (3-5) @ KOYOTES (6-2) 68-95 McNabb has a BYE next week. Pamela will have some work to do to beat Romo.

RAZORBACKS (4-4) @ FLYIN' TIGERS (5-3) 109-94 Rando props up everyone in the Big Five division with a win over DD. LT posted 42 points for the Razobacks, who reached .500 but still trail the division leaders by 1.

PITBULLS (5-3) @ RAIDERS (4-4) 108-108 *HOME TEAM WINS (RAIDERS). Boy ties suck don't they? The dogs have their best outing in weeks and Romo sneaks a win on a home team tie breaker. Nice start of Ahman Green (25) Romo.

OB'S METHOD (5-3) @ SANDBAGGERS (2-6) 76-55
OB backs into 1st place with a win over Brownie. The method will need more than 76 points to beat Double D next week. The winner of that match-up will rule the Big Five (for a week at least).

HITMEN (4-4) @ JETS (2-6) 113-77
The Hitmen come off life support to post the weeks' highest total. Reggie Wayne paid big dividends (34). Like any of Peyton Mannig's receivers, Wayne can explode for 3 TD's on any given Sunday. The trick is to figure out which one. We'll have to wait another week for Chet's big comeback.:)

Mid-Season Power Rankings (week#7)

The Contenders
(1) Krushin' Koyotes 5-2, PF/PA 665/577, W1
Previous Rank (PR) #3. McNabb's average score is 38 points per game. 18 for Larry Johnson. Two starters averaging 56 points will make any line-up look good.

(2) Brooklyn PitBulls 5-2, PF/PA 576/501, W1
PR#1. The dogs are fightin' back, but they're having a problem with consistency.

(3) DDs Flyin' Tigers 5-2, PF/PA 555/545, W1
PR#5. The Tigers are up two slots. We're no longer guessing if they're contenders, but there is an element of luck in many of their wins.

(4)The Soul Sonic Force 3-4, PF/PA 586/584, L1
PR#9. The biggest mover in the rankings. We told you they were better than their record. But their logo is whacked.

(5) OB's Method 4-3, PF/PA 577/526, W3
PR#6. OB has won 3 straight to climb into the contenders column. Too bad Peyton Manning’s doesn't play the Redskins every week. Hmm, Brian Westbrook gets 2 cracks at the skins. This might be a good season for OB.

The Pretenders

(6) Philly Hitmen 3-4, PF/PA 579/510, L1
PR#2. The Hitmen have fallen and they can't get up.


(7) Rando's Razorbacks 3-4, PF/PA 566/662, L1
PR#8. The Razorback’s are not ready for prime time.

(8)Romo's Raiders 3-4, PF/PA 497/547, W1
PR#4. Could move up with more balanced attacks like last week's match-up.

(9)Chet's Jets 2-5, PF/PA 560/591. L2
PR#7. Chet's getting ready to break-out. Look for the comeback kid to go 5-1 in the last 6 games.

(10)Brown's Sandbaggers 2-5, PF/PA 487/605, L1
PR#10. Somebody's gotta be last. Brownie has been doing a great job holding down this spot. So why not?
