THE WEEK 9 REVIEW
ITS NOT
A LOTTERY V FEAR FACTORY
 |
| The Vikings D. Costly. |
FANTASY
PREDICTION: LOTTERY BY 13
FANTASY
REALITY: FACTORY BY 6.52
Coach
Botond has never had it so good as the Factory landed there 4th
straight win against a competitive but ultimately forlorn Lottery.
An unprecedented 6 TD haul from just two players was the deal
breaker here with the rest of the squad performing adequately enough.
The Factory are now the leagues 3rd ranked franchise and
welcome the disaster Disco in week 10. Surely nothing can prevent the Factory from reaching the post season for
the first time in their history?
Only Coach Taylor has to score more points to win a game than Coach Andy
with his opponents posting an average of 114.71pts a game. Had
Browns hip not given out things may have been or so different. Had
the Steelers D started instead of the Vikings the Lottery would have
had their first positive record in three years of football. Had
Manning thrown one more 20 yard pass to Decker the win would have
belonged to Coach Andy. Instead the 4-5 franchise must pick
themselves up for a trip to the current Champions Ttttaylor. The
Lottery can't afford to slip two games behind the divisional leader
at this stage of the season.
AUTOPICKWARRIORS
V WEST COAST MAFIA
 |
| Pay up Coach Conor! |
FANTASY
PREDICTION: WARRIORS BY 6
FANTASY
REALITY: MAFIA BY 1.18
Coach
Conor owes Coach Cullen a pint of the black stuff as the leagues
pouty mouthed pixie beat the odds to claim the Guinness Bowl. This
should have been a regulation victory for the Warriors and one more
yard from Green would have released the bonus points and the win.
Its a thin line between love and hate in fantasy. They are now the
leagues highest scorers at an average of 113.06pts per game but have
tumbled to the bottom of the North and are currently ranked 9th
overall. Every game is a must win now for the Warriors if they are
to reverse this slide and remain in the hunt for the post season.
Its grim up North!
Only the
Rocks have had an easier ride than the Mafia this season with Coach
Cullen needing an average of just 96.66 pts to dispatch his
opponents. But for the last four weeks in a row dispatch them he
has. Chris Johnson's 80yard TD run was the key to this one, take
away those yards and Coach Cullen would have been nursing a loss
instead of a hangover. The Mafia are now top of the Central, ranked
4th overall and if the playoffs were today they would be
there for the second straight season. Week 10 and the Mafia will
take on the aforementioned Rocks knowing that 97pts will probably be
enough for win number 6.
TIM
RIGGINS BENCHWARMERS V TTTTAYLOR
.jpg) |
| The entire Benchwarmers line up. |
FANTASY
PREDICTION: RIGGINS BY 7
FANTASY
REALITY: RIGGINS BY 26.84
A
regulation win for the Benchwarmers. Coach Richard has show about as
much interest in the press as he has the waiver wire this season
preferring to trot out the same old line up week in week out. The
Benchwarmers philosophy appears to be to let Rogers post 30pts every
week and hope the rest of the line up push the score past the 100pts
mark. Its not the most creative coaching we've ever seen but it
seems to be working. You have to wonder what Coach Richard will do
should Rogers ever miss a start.
Coach
Taylor can stick a fork in his season for it is indeed done. With
his opponents posting a league high average of 117.35pts a game
no-one has had it tougher and this on the back of having to draft at
12. This week TE Cook decided to post minus points. Coach Taylor
will however pick up another two wins before the end of the regular
season and these wins will stop a couple of teams from reaching the
playoffs. Don't let it be you!
THE
BONES ROCKS V THE HAIRY FROG DISCO
FANTASY
PREDICTION: DISCO BY 10
FANTASY
REALITY: ROCKS BY 73.42
WR
Gordon goes in for the touchdown to keep the Disco's hopes alive!
Nope, its been called back. Griffin 3 rushes in for a touchdown to
keep the Disco's hopes alive! Nope, it's been called back. Griffin
passes for a touchdown to keep the Disco's hopes alive! Nope, its
been called back. Coach Calum has never had it so bad. His lowest
pts total in the history of CNFLE and the very real possibility of
his first ever losing season. For a large part of this match up the
entire Frogs line up was being beaten by just one Rocks player.
Shame on Coach Calum, shame on you, shame on your entire franchise.
Dean
Martin was that solitary star with a record breaking 57.20pts! The
little fella run and run and then ran some more, 251 yards and 4
td's. I'm guessing Coach Lars won't be looking to trade any time
soon. The Rocks have only scored 1.6pts more than the 1-8 Ttttaylor
and yet sit second in the Central just one game off the lead. With
the wildcard almost certain to come from the North of the South next
weeks match up against the resurgent Mafia has game of the week
written all over it.
SUPER
SWEDES V FRENCH LEADER
 |
| The entire Leader line up. |
FANTASY
PREDICTION: SWEDES BY 20
FANTASY
REALITY: LEADER BY 13.85
Just
when you think the Swedes are about to make a run for the playoffs
they lose to Adrian Peterson. Whilst the Leaders running back is no
Dean Martin, Peterson's 34.30pts was the difference maker in this
one. It's true that the Swedes left a whole heap of points one the
bench but its difficult question any of Coach Peter's calls. The
Swedes remain one win behind the leaders and still very much in
contention but cannot afford a slip up against the Warriors in week
10.
Boy oh
boy the Leader needed this one but outside of Peterson it was slim
pickings. If Coach Laurent can mastermind a victory in week 10
against 79FC he'll open the door to the post season but as things
stand it looks as if the Leader will miss out once again.
PAULS
POLARBEARS V SEVENTY NINE FC
 |
| Coach Paul's season. |
FANTASY
PREDICTION: BEARS BY 10
FANTASY
REALITY: 79FC BY 18.76
Where is
the love for the season two champion of cnfle? Well perhaps if Coach
Martin hadn't spent the off season trying to sabotage the league with
all his keeper league nonsense he'd be feeling some love. The truth
of the matter is that 79FC are now the number one ranked team in the
league, knocking the autopick bears off the top spot for the first
time this season. 79FC have scored an average of 102.90pts a game
whilst facing an average of 101.51pts a game. Make of that what you
will. For my money it tells us that consistency is the key to
fantasy success. Some may point to a favorable position in the draft
as the key to Coach Martin's success but as Mrs Marrs as often told
me, its not where you draft but what you do with it that really
matters.
The
wheels are well and truly coming off Coach Paul as his autopickbears
drop to their third defeat in four. Another defeat to the
Benchwarmers in week 10 and the autopickbears could lose their place
at the head of the North. The cause of there downfall lays squarely
in the hands of QB Manning who mustered just 3pts in the loss to the
Steelers. RB Redman looked impressive in the same fixture yet
according to the latest reports has not yet be named starter for the
match up against Kans City. Worse still the news that top fantasy WR
Harvin is a long shot to face the Lions. The autopickbears season
looks to be heading south and that can only mean one thing...they're
melllllttttting.
GOOD
CALL
Coach
Martin and his number 1 ranked 79FC. QB Carlton Palmer, 41.86pts.
Genius.
BAD CALL
Coach
Andy. The Vikings defence. Why Coach? Why?
ON THE
BOARD
Griffin
III: 186.54
Vick:
141.84
Never
before has a round of divisional games held such importance in the
history of cnfle. A season defined by a near impossible level of
integrity and competitiveness could be blown wide open. You do not
want to miss the Week 10 preview!
Good
luck gentleman
Jim
Marrs – Read it, believe it.
