WEEK 10 REPORT

DELTA MARAUDERS def COUGARS
173-161

TOM BRADY - 43pts
350 PaYd, 3 PaTD (19,9,25), 3 RuYd, RuTD (3)

BEN ROETHLISBERGER - 36pts
387 PaYd, 3 PaTD (6,15,33), PaInt, 12 RuYd

The Delta Marauders were down and out in their Week 10 match-up with the division-leading Cougars until Sunday night when Ben Roethlisberger and Tom Brady squared off in an old-fashioned shootout. The QBs combined for 79-points and that was enough to propel the DMs to a 173-161 victory.

Dez Bryant (20) and Mike Wallace (33) combined for 53-points at WR. LeGarrette Blount continues to improve as he contributed 17-points in victory in Week 10. Turns out Roddy White's 33-point effort on Thursday night was forgiven with the Brady/Roethlisberger performance Sunday night. But the NFL's leading receiver riding the bench this late in the season? That might have been costly.

So the DMs win and continue to surge towards picking up a wildcard playoff spot.

MARK SANCHEZ - 32pts
299 PaYd, 2 PaTD (25,37), PaInt, 4 RuYd, RuTD (1)

The Cougars remain in first place for the 10th week in a row but The Megatons are making serious noise in the ECD. Mark Sanchez (32) and Eli Manning (27) combined for 59-points of their own against Cleveland and Dallas on Sunday in road games.

Percy Harvin (26) and Calvin Johnson (22) combined for 48-points at WR. Frank Gore added 22-points at RB in victory over St. Louis. An off day by Adrian Peterson (7) proved to be costly in this important division match-up.

Chad Ochocinco (18) and Jabar Gaffney (15) might have been a good replacement for Ricky Williams (6) in retrospect. Either way, the Cougars are going to have to go into damage control mode and stop the bleeding in Week 11. Wouldn't ya know it? They'll be facing The Megatons!

BACKDOOR BANDITS DESTROY SPOILERS
204-130

MICHAEL VICK
70pts

The Backdoor Bandits have been there and done it all before. In their rookie season, no less. The way Michael Vick came out and played on Monday night, they just might do it all over again. Just about every fantasy owner in the world facing a team with Michael Vick in the starting line-up this week lost thanks to Vick's superhuman effort. Can you remember a greater fantasy performance? 70-points?

I've witnessed some amazing performances, but nothing comes close to what we saw with Vick on Monday in DC. Looks like he may have that starting QB job nailed down over Kevin Kolb in Philly. And McNabb seems a distant memory in Philly, certainly after he was the recipient of the beatdown this past Monday; on his new home field; after accepting a 5-year, $78 million dollar deal. Ouch!

MICHAEL VICK
333 PaYd, 4 PaTD (88,11,48,3)

In addition to Vick, the Bandits also had 47-points out of Matt Cassel. The KC quarterback passed for an amazing 469 yards and 4 TDs of his own in a loss to Denver.

All told, the Bandits had:
  • 802 passing yards
  • 8 passing TDs (88,11,48,3,5,15,11,22)
  • 344  rushing yards
  • 3 rushing TDs (7,6,17)
  • 224 receiving yards
  • 1 receiving TD (88)
That's tough to top at any time by anybody.

MICHAEL VICK 
80 RuYd, 2 RuTD (7,6)

Be on the lookout this weekend as the Backdoor Bandits take on the division-leading Predators in a high-profile showdown and possible BCFFL title game preview. At 6-4, the Bandits figure to make some serious noise come playoff season.

JON KITNA - 38pts
327 PaYd, 3 PaTD (13,71,24), PaInt, 5 RuYd

KYLE ORTON - 38pts
296 PaYd, 4 PaTD (17,6,40,15), -1 RuYd

The Spoiler fell to 7-3 and 2nd place in the Original Division after losing 204-130 to the Backdoor Bandits. Kyle Orton and Jon Kitna combined for 76-points on 623 passing yards and 7 TDs in Week 10.

Jeremy Maclin had 18-points at WR for The Spoiler, but the rest of the line-up was rather impotent, with only one other player - LaDainian Tomlinson (10) - going into double-figures.

Brandon Lloyed (29) and Colt McCoy (17) had noteworthy performances on the bench for The Spoiler, who now must face the Allie-Gators in Week 11.

GAUCHOS FORMER QB DOES THEM IN!
PREDATORS WIN, 148-108 

DAVID GARRARD - 44pts
342 PaYd, 2 PaTD (52,50), 35 RuYd

The Predators were seeking revenge for their Week 7 loss to the Gauchos and they came up big with a win in Week 10. David Garrard, formerly of the Gauchos, had a sensational day, winning it all on the final play with a Hail Mary pass deflected into the waiting arms of his wide receiver on the goal line to beat Houston. Garrard's 44-points made a big impact in the outcome of this game as the normally hot, Peyton Manning, was only good for 9-points and Philip Rivers was on the bye week.

Arian Foster (13) and Andre Johnson (24) were outstanding in defeat to Jacksonville for the Predators. With 3 games left, the league's best team and defending champions will have their hands full in Week 11 as they face the Backdoor Bandits.

MATT HASSELBECK - 28pts
333 PaYd, PaTD (63)

There is a major power outage in terms of points lately in Gaucho Land. Matt Hasselbeck had a decent outing in victory over Arizona, but that was really about it. Beyond Hasselbeck, Jamaal Charles (22) and Anquan Boldin (15) were the only producers for the Gauchos in Week 10. Not much to speak of.

At 3-7, the Gauchos window of opportunity for a playoff spot is dwindling quickly. They have to hope to win out the final 3 games of the season and steal a wild card spot at 6-7. Not likely.

THE MEGATONS def PARKING THUGS
124-97

MATTY "ICE" - 33pts
316 PaYd, 3 PaTD (28,4,33), 5 RuYd

Suddenly the league's hottest team, The Megatons have won 5 of their past 6 games and head into a divisional showdown with the Cougars in Week 11. Matt Ryan (33) played well for The Megatons in Week 10's Thursday game against Baltimore. He engineered a last minute comeback to win the game!

Shaun Hill (20) had a decent game in Drew Brees' absence during the bye week. Knowshown Moreno (25) and Steven Jackson (22) combined for 47-points at RB. Danny Amendola had 16-points at WR.

The big miss was Dwayne Bowe with 38-points on the bench. He's been scorching hot lately. Maybe an oversight here, but I'm guessing we won't find this cat on the bench from here on out. That could be a fatal mistake for The Megatons.

JOSH FREEMAN - 25pts
241 PaYd, 2 PaTD (8,20), 19 RuYd, FL

Bucs QB Josh Freeman's performance was the week's best for the Parking Thugs. Josh had 25-points on 241 passing yards and 2 TDs. Brett Favre (14) and LeSean McCoy (19) were about all that was left of the Thugs with significant scoring in Week 10.

Like the Gauchos, the Thugs (3-7) now have to hope for a miracle and run the table on the season to hope for a wild card berth.

ALLIE-GATORS CRUSH HOUSTON FUZZ
145-82


FRED JACKSON - 34pts
133 RuYd, RuTD (1), 37 ReYd, ReTD (16), FL

Apparently the book hasn't been written yet ont he Allie-Gators's season. They came up with a win when they needed it the most  in Week 10 over the Houston Fuzz. Jay Cutler (27), Maurice Jones-Drew (28), and Jermaine Gresham (18) were great in Week 10 for the AGs, but it was the performance of one Fred Jackson in Buffalo, NY, that made the difference and stole the show. 

Jackson rushed for 133 yards and scored a TD for 34-points. He also caught a 16-yard TD pass to lift the Bills to a 14-12 victory over Detroit. He may have also resuscitated the Gator's season and hopes.

JOE FLACCO - 27pts
215 PaYd, 3 PaTD (5,6,9), PaInt, 13 RuYd

This was a tough one to watch for the Houston Fuzz. Flacco was the team's best player with his 27-point night against Atlanta. Carson Palmer had 20-points in defeat at Indianapolis. im Hightower had 13-points in a loss to Seattle.

On the bench, the Fuzz had points to go around including QBs Derek Anderson (22) and top pick, Matt Schaub (28) left on the bench. Kevin Walter and Mario Manningham both had 19-points and were also left on the bench.

So congrats to all winners in Week 10 and good luck with just 3 games to go before our playoffs!
