For Jackson, it is the end of a six game winning streak, but the loss does not matter in terms of settling the division with Brad Moses. Whoever wins in week 14 between Jackson and Moses is the West champ. SF QBs, Anthony Thomas and Jimmy Smith scored. Kris Brown kicked in 12 points. The recently acquired Minnesota QBs remained on Jackson's bench, but scored 25 points with back up Todd Bouman at QB.

Tim Brown and Troy Brown both returned 80 plus yard punts as Nander Brown won for the sixth stright week. Only one other time had two punt returns been recorded in a BRFL game, both by Eric Metcalf (who was a Cleveland BROWN at the time). That was also accomplished against Best by Wallace in 1995. (Wallace also owned the Cleveland D/ST to double up both those TDs.) Oakland QBs and Marshall Faulk each scored two TDs to help Brown become the first league rookie since Stroupe in 1990 to win 10 games. This sign bodes well for Brown as both Stroupe in 1990 and Gravelesse in 1989 were the other 10 win rookies AND both were BRFL champions.

Despite the loss, Best is back in the playoffs. Cantrell's win over Ricker backs Best in. Best will be in his 12th playoff in 14 seasons. The return is sweet after missing last year for the first time since 1989. Jerry Rice, Corey Dillon and Green Bay QBs scored in an otherwise lackluster week.

Cantrell patience with a couple players was rewarded this week. Maurice Smith scored for the first time in 8 weeks and Keyshawn Johnson scored for the first time all year. Although he can potentially tie for second, Hank will lose a tiebreaker to Best who beat him twice.

Ricker's loss eliminates him from second place in the East , but he is on solid ground for a points slot leading McCowan by 51 points and Deitrich by 65.

Coupled with his loss and Deitrich's win, R-Mo failed to secure a second place playoff slot. If they same situation happens this week, R-Mo will surrender second to Bud. However, a likely points slot will await as R-Mo leads both Ricker and Outlaw in points. R-Mo will face Cousins in week 14 while JK squares off against Bud. Philly QBs scored twice and Duce Staly and Darrell Jackson scored once for his lacklust production this week.

For at least the third time this year, Cousins went with a default lineup. This lineup included Jerome Bettis who sat this week out.

Brad Moses won his seventh straight (tops in the league this year) and McCowan lost his fifth straight. B-Mo holds a one game lead over Jackson, but the division title hinges on their week 14 showdown. Red hot rookie Chris Chambers scored twice (7 TDs in five games) Monday night and New Orleans QBs, Randy Moss, Garrison Hearst and Cleveland's D scored once. B-mo is currently tracking as the number 2 seed in the BRFL playoffs which woyuld paoir him against his brother in round 1 if the playoffs began today.

McCowan's continued slide is baffling and now the lack of scoring as caught up to him as he slips behind Outlaw in the points race. DMC will face Outlaw in week 14 and will need to beat him by 29 points and hope that Deitrich does not score him by 14 and that Rick Moses wins a division slot. The only scores of note from DMC were by the Giants QBs and one from Chris Fuamatu-Ma'afala who may be back on the bench this week if Jerome Bettis returns.

I was 6-0 last week and now 48-23-1. I've gone 21-3 over the last month. Will the hot streak continue? Stay tuned.

Ricker vs Cantrell

Cantrell's season is over. It's not to say he can't make a game out of it. Red-hot Arizona has Washington at home and the Skins and Cards are usually inclined to get into a shootout. Ricky Williams plays the Falcons. He has a chance, against anyone but Ricker.

Ricker's Rams are playing the 49'ers where folks are betting on a shootout. The over/under is 57. The Bucs play the Lions at home. Ricker has had teams hit 70 against him four times this year. Too bad he can't play one of them this week.

Brown vs Best

Nander's Oakland QBs and Tim Brown are home against the Chiefs. Marshall Faulk plays the 49'ers in a game with shootout potential. And if Favre gets hot, Bill Schoeder could be the guy to keep pace.

Best won the first game 31-27. Brown will win his sixth in a row with a much higher score.

Rick Moses vs Jones/Klingman

Deitrich vs Cousins

Bud squeaks by as Cousins fails to note that Bettis is injured.

Outlaw vs Jackson

Outlaw is hoping for points, points and more points. It does not look likely, his matchups are not that solid this week. Expect Jackson to romp to his 7th straight.

Brad Moses vs McCowan
