[b2ac8a8a]Fonzie's Super-Fun Quick-Hit Recap-a-Thon[/b2ac8a8a]
MoMo bounced back from last week's misery to lead the Rounders (3-2) to a 23-20 OT win over division rival Arizona (0-5). 244 yds and 2 TDs for the QB earned him POG honors.
Barbarians (4-1) QB Brian Bauer was evidently pissed that his team was losing 14-6 at the half at home against Durham (1-4). So pissed that he came out of the tunnel and threw three TD passes in the third quarter to rally his team to a 33-22 win. Good for Brian.
Oregon (4-1) continued their Ice-cool rampage through the Ring of Fire, defeating their second consecutive RoF foe by three points. Honolulu's (2-3) first five drives ended thusly: punt, fumble, fumble, half, interception. The Blue Pacific valiantly rallied for 18 points over the last quarter and a half, but it wasn't enough.
The tight match between Santa Cruz (4-0) and Denver (0-5) wasn't over until the very last play of the game. Irving Norried had pushed Denver down the field 58 yards to the Santa Cruz 8 with :22 left, but a penalty and four incompletions later the game ended 20-16.
Tulsa's (3-1) Tyrus McChane pulled off an exceptionally rare feat for a linebacker today, racking up a hat-trick of interceptions (with another pass defensed to boot). With Tulsa's offense only managing field goals, they needed the pick-six he contributed in their 19-10 win over El Paso (2-3).
Another day, another 300 yard passing performance from Bert Foster. He did his usual thing in leading undefeated Huntington Beach (5-0) to a 26-16 win over Fargo (2-3). Yawn.
Texas (3-2) and Death Valley (0-5) alternated shutout quarters in this one. The Inferno wound up with better point differentials during their quarters, allowing them to lock up a 24-13 win.
Considering that Henry Nevarez threw three picks, Atlantic City (2-2) did well to keep limit to a 3-point loss to Cleveland (3-1). This game featured a total of 14 punts. So there's that.
It isn't often that a team can score a 23-point victory while fielding a QB who completed less than half of his passes, but that's precisely what New Orleans (3-2) did today in their 34-11 pasting of St. Louis (1-4). The Raging Horde's running game did the heavy lifting for them, racking up 214 yards.
Carl Bradford had a near-perfect day (QB Rating of 151.7) in leading Shreveport (3-2) to a 24-3 drubbing of Omaha (3-2). Casey Wolf led the Arrowheads on a nifty 79 yard drive in the 4th quarter, but turned it over on downs at the 1 yard line to seal the deal.
San Antonio (5-0) set the tone early in this one, jumping out to a 21-3 first quarter lead over Tennessee (3-2). That lead expanded to 38-3 at halftime, allowing the Stingers to cruise in the second half to a 45-15 win.
Boston (4-1) also scored a big first half over Chicago (1-4), but they did it with defense. Two fumble recoveries for TDs helped them build a 24-0 lead at halftime. That would hold up for a 30-3 rout.
Seattle (3-2) looked to be in trouble early, falling behind Tucson (2-3) 17-6 at the half. But Hunter Walker rallied the Spartans in the second half and put them in position to kick, and make, a 52-yd FG as time expired to escape with a 25-24 home win.
Detroit (1-3-1) and Brooklyn (3-1-1) played to a 24-24 tie. I hate ties.
