Week 10: Left Deadlocked
30 Drow @ 44 Beavers
This is the kind of game we expected out of these two teams, but Beavers are surging at the right time and the combo of McNabb and Peterson are pretty tough right now. Drow again struggled in their backfield with no RB and only 4 from Rodgers. Beavers have drug Drow down into a three-way tie in the Left Division and Beavers (2-1) hold the current combined tie-breaker in head-to-head over Drow (1-2) and Mimes (1-1).
Haydn got this one right (Beavers by 1) Doug did not (Drow by 2)
Beaver Grade: B, offense: A, defense: C
Drow Grade: C+, offense: C+, defense: C
58 Flannel @ 21 Buffalo Bills
Peyton had a good game and Mewelde Moore contributed from the RB position to give Flannel their best game since week 3. Buffalo is now solidly out of their every-other-week trend and are facing playoff elimination squarely in the face.
Neither Doug (Buffalo by 1.5) Nor Haydn (Buffalo by 8) got this one right.
Flannel Grade: A, offense: A+, defense: C+
Buffalo Grade: D, offense: C, defense: F
27 Ramjets @ 18 Malleus
Great win for Ramjets who had to come from behind big Monday night and with McGahee filling in very well for Portis. The loss drops Malleus back to .500 while Ramjets keep their playoff dreams alive.
Neither Doug (Malleus by 2) Nor Haydn (Malleus by 10) got this one right.
Ramjet Grade: B, offense: B, defense: C+
Malleus Grade: C, offense: C, defense: C+
12 Hamburglers @ 28 Bill's Team
Huge win for Bill gets their lead in the Middle back to 2 games. Hamburglers are pushed to the brink of playoff elimination.
Haydn (Bill by 5) got this right Doug (Hamburglers by 2.5) did not.
Bill's Grade: C, offense: C, defense: B
Ham Grade: D, offense: C-, defense: D
39 Capo @ 39 Old No. 7
Well, the tie isn't as bad as a loss would have been for Capo, but they clearly did not get the result they had hoped for out of this game. Then again, Old No. 7 really could have used the win here. Capo stays in first in the Right but their lead is cut down to 1/2 game. Old No. 7 barely stays in the playoff hunt.
Neither Haydn (Old No. 7 by 2) nor Doug (Capo by 4.5) got this one either.
Capo Grade: C+, offense: B, defense: C-
Old No. 7 Grade: C, offense: B, defense: F
0 Brawlers @ 21 Mimes
This one we saw coming, at least. For the record, the only teams Mimes would not have shut-out this week were Ramjets and Flannel. Mimes took care of business over their two-game set against Brawlers while Drow dropped two against Beavers to throw the Left into a three-team deadlock. Mimes still have to play Beavers (won earlier) and Drow (lost earlier) again this year. Brawlers are now mathematically eliminated from the playoffs but they could still escape the Toilet Bowl.
Haydn (Mimes by 15) was correct on this pick Drow were correct as well (Mimes by 22.5), but Mimes did not cover.
