Week #16 Discussion

[r00k]

GG morellomre. It was a hard fought game that could have gone your way with seconds remaining. I simply could not stop anything on D and again relied on turnovers for a win. Stat wise you dominated except for time of possession and turnnovers.

Dominic Guthrie is simply a horse, a stud horse at that ... both running and catching the ball. He leads the league with 21 TD's ... he got two off of me out of the backfield on passes. Trade him to me, please.

Well, Boston wins too (and in OT - damn). So, it looks like there will be a showdown for that playoff berth. Fogarty goes down again and is out. We expect Boston's r00kie QB Cory McInturff to be in the saddle to lead the Dragons. He has been a nice 4th round surprise so far this season as he has ably backed up Fogarty's injuries. Should be a hell of a game in the last week of the regular season despite the injury to Fogarty. Go Vipers!

In a rather useless game, my team decides to show up and play...Yea...one more game and we can start planning for the offseason.

LRK makes it close at the end, but Iowa staggers to the finish line for a win. GG.


Iowa City

Holy Shit!!! That was an amazing game. Irby and Bell were going crazy all day. We block a 19 Yd. FG at the end of regulation after just tying the score with a TD of our own a minute earlier.

We get pinned inside our own 5 and have to punt in OT giving Madison the ball at our own 39. Only to have Antoine Fulton make a pick that sets us up for our winning TD drive in OT.

The Boston mash unit continues with Fogarty breaking his arm and Brian Christie breaking his foot.

Now it's up to the rookie at home against Norfolk with the Wild Card on the line.

Good game Penn. You're team dominated the first half and we took over in the second and pull out the win. I think injuring your punter was the difference in the game. When you were trying to keep the lead, your kicker was letting lose some 20 yard punt/wounded ducks that gave us some killer field position. We were lucky to have won this one.

Anyone know if the Beasts have clinched the No. 2 seed?

GG Ragin.

After today's win the Phantoms are now just hoping to avoid injury in week 17 and hopefully Arnold Greene heals up quick enough to play again this post-season.

Anyone know if the Beasts have clinched the No. 2 seed?

I don't think that you have. Either team in the NC North can tie you for record, and conference record but beat you in divisional record and there's no head-to-head games against either.

[Kobeck]

California wins in OT for the home fans. Only highlite was the Chapman OT TD rush. Heroes kept throwing into "very familiar" defense with predictably bad results. Run D showed up and was probably the deciding factor in the game.

gg Argot. Reno dominated inside its division and won the home PO game that goes with it. Hot team can win IFL Championship and Reno has earned a chance, while 20 others will be sitting home - California included.

I don't think that divisional record is a tiebreaker for teams out of division. Divisional record is only used to tiebreak teams within the same division. At least it is with the NFL. Maybe FOF is different. :?

oh, and good game TUFFY

GG Matt,

Definatley a shootout offensively. Also total of 11 sacks between the 2 teams.

Opie has been on a mission this season. I've been pretty quiet about it trying not to step on my own feet, but he has been awesome. Just really want to get back to the big game and win the title. Trading for Mullin earlier this season has been helpful as well, adding to the weapons that Opie can utilize.

[TUFFY]

I know they don't have the No. 1.....

j/k hope to see ya in the playoffs Kozure !!!

j/k hope to see ya in the playoffs Kozure !!!

the only reason you have the No. 1 seed clinched is because you haven't played me this year...yet.

Good game. It was so weird seeing all those names on the wrong teams ;-)

my red zone offense is horrible... 1st and 5 from the five and we kick a FG. blah. Good Game Kobeck. Good things will come out of California in time.

[JesterBlaze]

I don't know what goes into the calculations but Lawrence has not fared well lately against Reno in turnovers and special teams. If the Wolfpack make it past the wildcard round I can certainly see them continuing through Lawrence in less of an upset than the oddsmakers would have some think.

Now that I think of it the NC West in general plays me very tough despite their current shortcomings against the other IFL teams.
