This battle for first place in the Thunder Division lived up to the hype, as The Hail Marys held off a furious comeback attempt by Riley's Vikings to secure the win. Riley's Vikings was led by a surprising 13 point performance from their Cleveland defense and a big day from wide receiver Calvin Johnson. Despite their performances, Coach Adam Warren found himself down by 21 points going into MNF with only Tom Brady left to play on roster. While Brady produced a whopping 37 point performance, it wasn't enough to overcome the 18 points combined that were scored by The Hail Marys' Santonio Holmes and Danny Woodhead. Coach Tara Campbell received big performances from Maurice Jones-Drew and tight end Vernon Davis, who finally looks to have regained his form following a mid-season injury.
Game of the Week II: Young Gun Football (98) @ The Comeback Kids (96)
All of the smack talk this week led to a great non-divisional showdown between these two organizations. YGF had 5 players score in double digits, led by Ahmad Bradshaw with 21 points. Coach Jason Young was very pleased with the play of running back Knowshon Moreno, who continues his late season surge in point production. The Comeback Kids had 6 players score in doulbe figures, led by quarterback Peyton Manning with 18. Coach Daniel Campbell was not pleased with Manning, however, as he threw four interceptions for the second week in a row.
Safety Blitz (99) @ Charlie's Redrockets (89)
Safety Blitz was able to go on the road and pull out a tough victory over Charlie's Redrockets. Safety Blitz received a 51 point performance from their three running backs, yet still found themselves down by 5 points heading into MNF. Coach Phillip Campbell called on Wes Welker to lead the comeback and the wide receiver responded with a 14 point effort to lead his team to victory. Charlie's Redrockets got huge performances from quarterback Aaron Rodgers and running back Chris Ivory, who combined to score 55 points. Coach Matthew Campbell was visibly upset with his NY Jets defense after the game, however, saying only that "nobody's butt is safe from Charlie's redrocket after tonight!"
The Pessimists (64) @ One-Man Wolf Pack (106)
The Pessimists had another dismal week offensively, as two players combined to score 0 points on their starting roster. Coach BJ Hudson was visibly upset on the sideline, repeatedly throwing his visor and uttering profanities. He refused to speak to reporters after the game, but did Tweet on Monday afternoon that "my team is garbage." The Wolf Pack defended their home turf behind a strong performance from Adrian Peterson, who shredded the Bills' defense for 28 points. Coach Zach Maddux was also pleased with the play of his wide receivers, who combined to score 39 points over the weekend.
Illegal Alien Babies (59) @ Hit Squad (131)
The Illegal Alien Babies ran into a buzzsaw over the weekend, as the Hit Squad continued their torrid pace of point production. The Aliens received another solid performance from running back LaGarrette Blount, who scored 16 points. Coach Darrell Campbell was disappointed in his receivers this week, as they combined to score six points. The Hit Squad had 6 players score in double figures, led once again by the dog catcher Michael Vick with 32 points. Coach David Looper was very pleased with his teams' performance, noting that "Reggie Wayne better keep catching the damn ball."
Pickup of the Week
This week's award goes to Coach Matthew Campbell, who picked up Chris Ivory and inserted him in the starting lineup to the tune of 23 points.
