43 BAR: CAR QB 6, KAJ 19, RWatters 7, EMcCaffery 6, DPelphrey 4 PHL D 1
12 JK: MAllen 6, ADelGreco 4, PIT D 2
Hello, Mr Jones? Paging Mr Jones? We are anxious to hear what you have to
say about this debacle. For openers, there's that 70 point drop. A
league record by the way. Previous was Talbot going from 69 to 14 from week 16
to week 17 in 1995. Granted, Favre was off, but you replace him with New
Orleans? As in NO QB or "no QB".
Karim Abdul Jabbar outscored JK with 19 points by himself. KAJ got a little
help from JK's Bam Morris who must have still had his handcuffs on when he fumbled
to set up a short KAJ TD run. Barry took it easy
and left 16 extra points on the pine based on QB and D/st choice.
26 BST: NE QB 12, ESmith 6, RCunningham 8
15 WAL: PIT QB 12, Mhollis 2, DET D 1
Best stopped a record in-season losing streak with this victory over long time
foe Wallace. Best is a perfect 4-0 versus teams that joined in the 1980s and
0-4 versus the teams from the 1990s. Wallace nearly stole this one: Twice
during the PIT/CIN game, Wallace was denied what looked like sure TDs. Kordell
Stewart was crunched at the goalline on a short run where it looked like he would
easily score. On another play, Carl Pickens lost the handle on the ball inside
the 10 after a long catch and run.
50 CJ JAX QB 20, EGeorge 13, CCalloway 8, JHanson 8, NYJ D 1
35 MOS SF QB 12, AMurrell 6, RDudley 6, MStover 7, SEA D 4
Looks like there is a glitch in Mosakowski's schedule. He usually gets teams
on their down week. In other words, he should have had Jackson in week 7 when he
scored 10 points.
Hi-dee-hi-dee-hi-dee-ho! Looks like Jackson has found a starting
WR in Chris "Cab" Calloway who had a big game. Calloway would make a nice
replacement for disappointing Eddie Kennison, who's lack of production is
so puzzling that doctors might consider naming a disease after it. For
Example: MOS' Michael Jackson has "Kennison's Syndrome".
38*STP: WAS Q 12, TDavis 16, GHearst 1, HWalker 7, DEN D 2
21*TAL: MFaulk 1, HMoore 1, TOwens 12, GAnderson 4, IND D 3
So much for trends in trying to predict Talbot. He was formerly the master
of the QB bye week, but Miami ran all three of their scores in. Credit Stroupe
with the pick up of the week as Hershel Walker scored on a long TD catch.
Walker, who has been kicking around the BRFL since its inception, had
yet to find a spot on a roster this season until this week.
43 OUT: TKirby 15, KMcCardell 7, BEmmanuel 6, JKasay 7, Oak D 8
26 BUD: BAL QB 7, JBettis 7, DAlexander 6, AVinatieri 5, DAL D 1
Outlaw may have not got any production out of his QB this week, but he
had the only defense that scored a TD. The assorted odds and ends that make
up his team finally came together for the second time this year and shot
down a big time opponent. BUD has to be wondering what's up with Lawrence
Phillips who has been on alternate weeks been sidelined with Turf Toe and
Kennison's Syndrome.
51 GTS: DET QB 6, BSanders 7, NKauffman 10, JMorton 6, JLewis 1, ARison 12, PStoyo (SR) 8, BAL D 1
38 DP: OAK QB 12, CWarren 6, JSmith 6, JJett 6, CBlanchard 6, CIN D 2
Napolean Kauffman continued Gates' tradition of long runs with an 83 yard
burst. Barry Sanders, who had TD runs of 80 and 82 yards last week, chipped in a
run of a mere 8 yards. Kauffman has more that justified his early selection in
the 1997 draft. Former bad boy Andre Rison was a late round steal. If the
Detroit QBs develop any consistency, Gates may discover that the BRFL season
can extend beyond Thanksgiving.
For Peil the surprising success of James Jett has come at a price - severe
dip in the production of Tim Brown. That is what is USED to be known as
"Kennison's Syndrome". The secondary receiver stealing the TDs from a superstar
primary receiver.
30 BR: DEN Q 6, JAnderson 6, YThigpen 6, TMathis 6, JElam 5, NO D(SR) 1
15*CZ: CMartin 1, BCoates 6, JHall 6, NE D 2
In the battle of absentee drafters, Ricker comes out on top. Jason Elam
"returned" to Ricker's lineup and contributed 5. CZ's John Hall came close
to making NFL history with a 68 yard field goal that just missed. The BRFL
does not have a graduated bonus point scale for kickers, but might want to
consider one.
