GAME OF THE WEEK
COUGARS (1-1)
Extra Crispy Division
VS
ALLIE-GATORS (1-1)
Original Division
Adrian Peterson (17.5 ppg avg)
The Cougars bring a couple of stud RBs to battle the Gators. Leading the way is Vikings RB Adrian Peterson who has rushed for 232 yards and is averaging nearly 18 points per game. QB Eli Manning has passed for 424 yards and 5 TDs. Frank Gore came alive on Monday night against New Orleans and he may break loose in Arrowhead on Sunday for a big game. Chad Ochocinco is the team's leading receiver with over 200 yards and a TD. This team is averaging about 142 points per game. If they can hold to that average or exceed expectations, the Cougars could be on top of the Gators when the weekend is complete.
Jay Cutler (649 passing yards)
The Allie-Gators are led by the quarterback of team owner Mike Gaffney's favorite team, the Chicago Bears. That must add an extra touch of excitement to planning for each opponent. And after last year's ghastly performance out of Cutler, the jury was out on whether or not he'd be able to handle the pressure of being an NFL quarterback. Well, how do you like 649 passing yards, 5 TDs, and a 33.5 points per game average in two weeks? This should bode well for the Gators, whose star QB will take center stage in a game against Green Bay. In this game last year, Cutler threw, was it 7 (?) interceptions. You know he wants to redeem himself, and what better stage will he have than a national audience in prime time?
Meanwhile, the Gators are going to hit you with the likes of Cedric Benson and Maurice Jones-Drew at RB. Wes Welker and Reggie Wayne had 5 receiving TDs between the two of them and they're both averaging between 17-20 points per game. The Steelers DST is another not-so-secret weapon of the AGs, pouring it on thick against Tennessee last weekend and totaling 39-points in two games.
This most certainly will be a closely fought battle in Week 3. A case could be made for both teams having a good chance in this one. Good luck to both as you face each other in our Game of the Week!
PREDATORS (2-0)
Original Division
VS
HOUSTON FUZZ (1-1)
Extra Crispy Division
Jahvid Best (Lions Rookie Sensation)
The Predators continue the defense of their BCFFL Championship as they face the Houston Fuzz in Week 3. Coming off a strong performance against Philadelphia in Week 2, the rushing/receiving threat of Jahvid Best in Detroit may cause problems for the Fuzz.
Peyton Manning and Brett Favre lead the way at QB. Andre Johnson and Arian Foster will look to counter the Fuzz's top pick, Matt Schaub. And the Predators turn to Patrick Willis and the Niners DST to come up big in Kansas City for some points on defense.
Carson Palmer (512 passing yards, 2 TDs)
The Fuzz will hope for some major production out of Carson Palmer this week as the Predators have all the weapons Matt Schaub would likely throw to. Palmer's been averaging 17-18 points per game. The Fuzz could really use a boost out of the Cincinnati QB in Week 2.
Mario Manningham and Tim Hightower had big weeks on the bench in Week 2 and have earned a starting spot in the line-up this weekend. Ronnie Brown and Marion Foster join Hightower carrying the ball. This would be a huge win for the Fuzz over the defending champions.
THE SPOILER (2-0)
Original Division
VS
DELTA MARAUDERS (1-1)
Extra Crispy Division
Aaron Rodgers (443 passing yards, 4 TDs)
The Spoiler are off to a great start at 2-0 and thanks in large part to the efforts of Packers' QB, Aaron Rodgers. He's in a nice rhythm throwing the rock and he has a rushing TD. Look for the good production to continue out of Rodgers on Monday night against division rival, Chicago. Rashard Mendenhall, Hakeem Nicks, and Dallas Clark provide the bulk of the points for The Spoiler and hope to turn up the heat this weekend as they face stiff competition in the Delta Marauders.
Matt Forte (32.5 avg ppg)
The Delta Marauders are just 1-point shy of being 2-0 this season. The DMs suffered a tough defeat in our Game of the Week against the defending champion, Predators. This weekend, the DMs look to rebound as they face the 2-0 Spoiler. Forte and Rodgers will highlight the Monday night match-up as Chicago faces Green Bay.
Looks like maybe Bruce Gradkowski and not Sam Bradford will get to play Robin to Tom Brady's Batman at the QB spot. Roddy White and Demaryius Thomas will lead the way at WR, and Willis McGahee will hope to complement Forte rushing.
PARKING THUGS (1-1)
Extra Crispy Division
VS
GAUCHOS(0-2)
Original Division
LeSean McCoy (4 rushing TDs)
Eagles RB LeSean McCoy rushed for 3 TDs in last weekend's game against Detroit. Jahvid Best and DeSean Jackson stole the show with their playmaking abilities, but LeSean was the unsung hero for Philadelphia. He may take center stage in the Parking Thugs match-up with the Gauchos in Week 3. Look for more out of LJ who is averaging just over 25 points per game.
Philip Rivers and Tony Romo headline the PTs at QB. Brandon Jackson and DeAngelo Williams are the duo carrying the ball next to LeSean.
The Gauchos have Williams' counterpart in Carolina with Jonathan Stewart. But it's this guy -
- Ray Rice, that the Parking Thugs might have to worry about. Silenced in two agames so far against New York and Cincinnati, Rice figures to have a breakout game sooner rather than later. It may very come this weekend, as the Gauchos hope to reap the rewards of their #1 pick this season.
Jamall Charles also carries the rock, and throwing it, once again is Matt Hasselbeck in Seattle. Chad Henne handles the duties on Sunday night in prime time against New York for the Dolphins. The Gauchos hope to nail down their first win this weekend against the Thugs.
BACKDOOR BANDITS (0-2)
Extra Crispy Division
VS
THE MEGATONS (1-1)
Original Division
Chris Johnson (21 avg ppg)
The Backdoor Bandits are off to a rough start in 2010 with two straight losses. Chris Johnson, our #1 overall pick, has impressed for Tennessee. The Bandits hope his outstanding production leads to a win over one of the BCFFL's most formidable franchises, the mighty Megatons.
Donovan McNabb and Michael Vick will start at QB, and joining CJ will be Michael Turner and Darren McFadden. Santana Moss and DeSean Jackson are at WR, so if these combinations hook up once or twice on Sunday, this could turn into exponentially huge points production for the Bandits.
Drew Brees (491 passing yds, 3 TDs, 0 ints)
Drew Brees is playing like the Super Bowl champion that he is. Leading his team to big wins, including their most recent Monday night road victory in San Francisco, Brees has nearly 500 passing yards, 3 TDs, and no interceptions this season. The Megatons are enjoying this outstanding player, and hope that Matt Ryan continues his hot streak, (477 passing yards, 3 TDs, 1 int) this weekend as well.
There appear to be a few question marks with players recovering from injuries in The Megatons line-up, but these are durable players like Steve Smith of the Panthers, and Cadillac Williams of Tampa Bay. They'll fight through it.
The Bandits are going all out for win #1, so this should be a very exciting contest.
Good luck to all this weekend!
