Week XIII Postgame Analysis

Interestingly enough, nobody else was added to the list of the mathematically eliminated.

Rhode Island Charge (7-5) d. Stud Man Clan (4-8)
62-58
Oh, what a nail biter this one was. So what does Rhode Island do when its usually dominant running game blanks and Drew Brees doesn’t throw? Let the receivers do the dirty work. Horn and Chambers combined for 32. Of course, that offense was nearly equaled by Drew Bledsoe and his 29 by himself (which made me personally happy until I saw that the Clan had him). So we come down to the Monday night and defensive scores. The Charge had a combined 25 (all on Sunday). The Monday night defense of Dallas, who needed 9 to win, only took 5 (a combined 12 for the Clan). So, in a game much closer than it should’ve been, Rhode Island moves closer to a playoff spot.

Nor Cal Crushers (5-7) d. Koko's X-Cats (7-5)
98-74
I knew Nor Cal had a chance to win this one. I never thought it would end up being this impressive. But with five players clearing 14, this one was over before it started. Trent Green threw for 21, Kevin Jones ran for 16, Darrell Jackson caught for 14, Hanson kicked for 16, and Edwards, well, defended for 14. The X-Cats had their high mark in the Tampa Bay DEF and their 25. This was accompanied by Aaron Brooks’s 18. But with nothing else behind Koko and his Cats (which IMO, sounds like a name for a rock band), the Crushers were able to keep their playoff hopes alive.

South Fl Jets (8-4) d. Philly Cheesesteaks (8-4)
92-58
And the flip side of the first game, this one should’ve been much closer than it was. Philly’s generally powerhouse offense only got remotely decent performances from Culpepper’s 10 and Ackers’s 19. The Jets, on the other hand, pulled no punches. Hasselbeck put up a game-high 29. This was followed by Chad Johnson’s 20 and Tomlinson’s 17. With this victory, the South Florida Jets are heading to the playoffs.

JC's Juggernauts (4-8) d. Dunedain (6-6)
64-51
With a playoff spot on the line, winning this game would’ve been a huge boon for Dunedain. Unfortunately, they Dunedained (yeah, I’m back to that joke). Beyond Portis tallying 19 and Stokley nabbing 13, no one else was able to plop up anything good (in fact, Vick scored -6). This provided a huge advantage towards the Juggernauts, who got additional help from Martin’s 19 and Vanderjagt’s 16. When the rest of the offense decided to pitch in, they did so in numbers that were able to offset the absence of a QB, giving JC and his Juggernauts (which IMO, sounds like a heavy metal band) a victory.

Toronto Fumblers (7-5) d. The Borg (4-8)
114-35
And going with a certain theme, this game happened the exact way everyone thought it would: “The Borg have given up on the season and are now without Marshall Faulk so this one is pretty easy to break down: The Fumblers win.” Borg, Brian Westbrook, 26. Phantom Fumblers, lots more. The running game could’ve won this on their own, with a combined 41. Roethlisberger (I’ve said his name so much this season, I can actually spell it) put up 18, and Chicago and Muhammad scored 15 and 14, respectively. Everybody on Toronto scored at least 5, pushing them towards an almost inevitable playoff spot.

Hurricanes (2-9-1) vs. The Lightning (5-7)
76-68
This one actually should’ve gone to The Lightning. The only reason the ‘Canes were able to help themselves out of the basement was McNabb’s 37 and Alexander’s 14. Beyond dual 9s, it was complete donutville (add that to the list of Eddieisms). The Lightning had everyone contribute (except the QB spot, which probably killed them). They were led by Kasay’s 23 and James’s 19. So with two different playing styles represented pretty exceptionally here, the “couple powerhouse players” style defeats the “slow and steady conglomerate” style today.

Coco's Monkeys (7-5) d. This Space for Rent (4-8)
73-66
This was another nail biter, but as Ed put it: “So long as the Monkeys have Manning and Dillon producing points they are to be feared by everyone in the league.” They combined for 31. The defense pitched in too, with 25. Beyond Buffalo’s 29 (and the defensive combination 43), TSfR couldn’t put much up on the board. So Coco and his Monkeys (which IMO, sounds wrong) keep clinging to a playoff spot.

Cooney Quest (10-2) d. Valleygirls (7-5)
77-66
Here's a game which could’ve gone either way. The Girls had their dominant defense put up 33. Cooney was able to counter that with 42. The Quest even had a combined receiving total of 28. All the Girls could do was put up a 15 from the K spot, and watch. This win cements Cooney Quest as the number one seed.

The Shoats (8-3-1) d. Bonecrushers (6-6)
79-66
I have to say, The Shoats’ scoring patterns have made my job easier. That’s tri-11s from Delhomme, Wayne, and Harrison. Defense chipped in 41. Also making my job easy were dual 14s from the Bonecrushers’ Owens and Wilkins. Leftwich added 11, but the difference was (lack of) defense, giving The Shoats their third straight win.
