Fonz,
Isn't this an excerpt from your dynasty thread?
How is losing to a division rival not a key game?
Just food for thought...

Yes, I'm a bit late with these. So sue me. No...wait, don't do that. I don't have much money, see, and I can't afford litigation right now. Thanks. [b9db58d5]Boise (4-2) 24, Seattle (4-2) 30[/b9db58d5] - This back-and-forth affair saw Boise score 10 points in the first 5 minutes of the 4th quarter to take a 24-20 lead. But Seattle managed to steal away a win with 10 points in the last 4:38 of the game. Boise simply had no answer for QB Charles Dever, who posted a nifty 19/29 for 226 yards and 3 TDs via the air [i9db58d5]plus[/i9db58d5] 8 carries for 75 yards on the ground. [b9db58d5]Detroit (5-1) 24, Durham (5-1) 28[/b9db58d5] - This matchup was clearly the Game of the Week, but it turned out to be a Game of the Weird. For starters (no pun intended) Durham's starting QB Edward Kimber sat out, making this a supposed "cakewalk" for Detroit. However, backup Kenneth Lester came out firing in his first series, completing passes of 44 and 26 yards in engineering a quick TD drive. That, however, would turn out to be Durham's last TD of the day, as they relied on seven, that's right, [i9db58d5]seven[/i9db58d5] field goals from John Snell, including two 50+ kicks. Not to be outdone, Detroit threw in some freakishness of their own with Harold Infante's 100 yard kickoff return for a TD in the 2nd quarter. Despite the stormy weather, neither running game went anywhere and both QBs threw for 300+ yards. Weird game. [b9db58d5]Long Beach (0-5) 13, Arizona (5-1) 21[/b9db58d5] - Arizona pulled yet another win out of their collective butts by scoring 14 points in the final two minutes of the game. I don't really have any comments about this game other than to say: thanks for nothing, Long Beach. [b9db58d5]New York (4-2) 20, San Antonio (4-1) 31[/b9db58d5] - San Antonio is asserting itself in the EFC Deep South and now owns a 1-game lead on Shreveport. They needed 14 4th quarter points to get this win, however. But it shouldn't have been even this close, as the Stingers dominated the Knights statistically (24-16 in 1st downs, 172-45 in rushing yards, 433-257 in total yards, 36:21-23:29 in ToP). Eddie Crawford took home MVP honors with a 3TD performance. [b9db58d5]El Paso (3-3) 23, Denver (3-3) 27[/b9db58d5] - El Paso's strong play of late continued well into this game, but critical mistakes cost them the win in a game they easily could have won. The Rockets outgained the Dynamite 402-214 in total yards and 36:57-23:03 in ToP. Denver, however, started four drives in El Paso territory (thanks to some ill-timed turnovers), and their average starting field position was at their own 45. With that kind of field position you don't need many yards to score, and that was the story of this game. Dustin Hayes did what he could, but his 294 yards and 1 TD (with 1 INT) just weren't enough to overcome the Rockets' turnovers and poor special teams play. [b9db58d5]Memphis (3-3) 14, Hartford (1-4) 21[/b9db58d5] - This game is only noteworthy insofar as Hartford finally got rid of their win-column goose egg. Oberg and Spearman are back - beware, CFL! |

[quote544a774="Fonzie"]Because we're no longer relevant in the bigger CFL picture. [/quote544a774]I read the dynasty because I want my Toros dammit! What good is a dynasty from the Toros GM if I don't get some Toros bias or a look at the CFL with a slight focus on my Redmen?! Save the highlights for ESPN, I want more Toros and I want them now! Besides, it helps with my game planning... |
