It's time for Fantasy Football Tuesday: Week 9 Edition. This was another rough week as the teams went 1-2 in the three highlight leagues. Here's the breakdown for Week 10 and the look ahead to Week 11...
Breakdown:
In the Speed Kills league, the K.C. Masterpieces won their fourth game in a row as they defeated KILLA B by the score of 103.29 to 67.77. The game was decided during the Sunday Night game as QB Peyton Manning and WR Reggie Wayne manned a comeback that led to the Masterpieces getting the victory. With the win, the Masterpieces are in first place in their division for the first time all season. The leading scorers for the Masterpieces were Reggie Wayne, Peyton Manning, DeSean Jackson and David Akers. After Week 10, I'm in 3th place overall (1st in the Shakespeare Division) with a record of 6-4.
In the League of Evangelical Baptists, the Kansas City Titans have lost two in a row as they were defeated by the Baptist Brawlers by the score of lost a heartbreaker to the Purple Cobras by the score of 81.75 to 78.62. The Titans weren't able to hold off the Brawlers as they won on a FG made by K Stephen Gostkowski in the 4th quarter of the Sunday Night game. The good news (if there is any) is that they are only one game out of the division lead even with the loss. Leading scorers for the Titans were Drew Brees, Steve Breaston, Minnesota DEF, and Dwayne Bowe. After Week 10, I'm in 5th place overall (3rd in the Annie Armstrong Conference) with a record of 6-4.
In the Pigskin Prognosticators league, the Krakow Tigers lost their first game in six weeks as they were defeated by Chi-Chiwawa's by the score of 100.39 to 83.44. The game was decided during the Sunday Night game with the huge performance by Randy Moss sealing the victory for the opponents. The loss snaps a five game winning streak by the Tigers. A bright spot was the Tigers have clinched a playoff spot. Leading scorers for the Tigers were Adrian Peterson, T.J. Houshmandzadeh, Wes Welker and David Akers. After Week 10, I'm in 3nd place with a record of 6-4.
Outlook for Week 11:
In the Speed Kills league, the K.C. Masterpieces (6-4) will look to keep the winning ways going as as they square off against Dooley's Dawgs (3-7). With the bye season over, there will be no more worries about people on the bye. The status of RB Michael Turner is in question because of health. If the cannot go, RB Fred Jackson will get the start. The Masterpieces have a one game lead in the division with four games left in the regular season (the last three matchups are division opponents). Key matchup will be the TE position (Antonio Gates vs. Jason Witten). As of right now, Yahoo is predicting the Masterpieces as the favorite.
In the League of Fantasy Footballers, the Kansas City Titans (6-4) will look to reverse the trend of losses as they face off against the LouisVillians (2-8). The Villians are managed by Jason, a friend from my days at UT Martin. The Titans will have a decision to make with regard to RB. There are no clear cut starters at this point and will probably go with a gametime decision as to who will start. This is a must win for the Titans as they look to stay in playoff contention. Key matchup will be at the QB position (Drew Brees vs. Tom Brady). As of right now, Yahoo is predicting the Titans as the favorite.
In the Pigskin Prognosticators league, the Krakow Tigers (6-4) will look to get back in the win column as they take on The Sleepers (5-5). This is a rematch of a Week 4 matchup that saw The Sleepers get the victory. For the Tigers, it's a game about pride. For The Sleepers, it's a game to get into the playoffs. Key matchup will be at the DEF position (Philadelphia vs. Green Bay). As of right now, Yahoo is predicting the Tigers as the favorite.

Breakdown:
In the Speed Kills league, the K.C. Masterpieces stormed a miraculous comeback as they as they defeated Deal's Gap Dragons by the score of 112.71 to 109.90. It was a matchup that looked like a loss going into the Monday Night game as it was a double digit deficit and only Hines Ward was going for the Masterpieces.

The Masterpieces are looking to keep place with division leader Headhunters as right now there is a tie for first place. Key matchup will be the QB position (Peyton Manning vs. Tony Romo). As of right now, Yahoo is predicting the Masterpieces as the favorite.
In the League of Fantasy Footballers, the Kansas City Titans (6-3) will look to rebound from last week's loss as they face off against the Baptist Brawlers (6-3). The Titans will be without a starting RB from Houston (Steve Slaton/Ryan Moats) as they'll be on the bye while the Brawlers will be at full strength. This will be a tough matchup and one with playoff implications. Key matchup will be at the DEF position (Minnesota vs. Chicago). As of right now, Yahoo is predicting the Brawlers as the slight favorite.
In the Pigskin Prognosticators league, the Krakow Tigers (6-3) will look to keep the win streak alive as they take on Chi-chiwawa's (6-3).

Fantasy Football Tuesday: Week 8 Edition
It's time for Fantasy Football Tuesday: Week 8 Edition. This is was both a dramatic and exciting week, for the second week in a row the teams went 3-0 in the three highlight leagues. Here's the breakdown for Week 8 and the look ahead to Week 9...
Breakdown:
In the Speed Kills league, the K.C. Masterpieces put together a solid performance as they defeated the Buffalo Buckeyes by the score of 115.64 to 86.26. Despite an atypical performance by Peyton Manning where he scored less than double digits, the rest of the team picked up the slack. In fact there were six players with double digit point totals. The Masterpieces put together the second best point total this week and have now won two in a rwo and have gotten back to the .500 mark. The leading scorers for the Masterpieces were Reggie Wayne, DeSean Jackson, Domenik Hixon, and Michael Turner. After Week 8, I'm in 6th place overall (2nd in the Shakespeare Division) with a record of 4-4.
In the League of Evangelical Baptists, the Kansas City Titans stormed back and got a miraculous victory over rival Souper Bowl Sundays by the score of 73.40 to 72.92. It came down to the Monday Night game. Going in the Titans were in a huge hole, due in large part to the .5 point total by K Matt Prater and the ever more anemic -.4 by Steve Slaton. The Titans, behind MVP Drew Brees and WR Lance Moore did all they could to close the nearly 30 point gap. It came down to less than three minutes left in the 4th quarter and a 1 yard TD pass but the Titans were able to pull out the victory. Leading scorers for the Titans were Drew Brees, Kevin Smith and Minnesota DEF. After Week 8, I'm in 4th place overall (tied for 1st in the Annie Armstrong Conference) with a record of 6-2.
In the Pigskin Prognosticators league, the Krakow Tigers have won four in a row as they got a close victory over Fear This by the score of 99.82 to 95.44. The game was up in the air until after the Monday Night game. The Tigers held off Fear This and continue to have the second longest winning streak in the league. Leading scorers for the Tigers were Adrian Peterson, Philadelphia DEF, Jay Cutler, and Steve Smith. After Week 8, I'm in 3th place with a record of 5-3.
Outlook for Week 9:
In the Speed Kills league, the K.C. Masterpieces (4-4) will look get above .500 as they square off against the Deal's Gap Dragons (2-6). The Masterpieces will be at full strength again while the Dragons will be without K Rian Lindell as he'll be on the bye. The Masterpieces are one game beind for the division lead and will be going all out to try and reach it. Key matchup will be the TE position (Antonio Gates vs. Greg Olsen). As of right now, Yahoo is predicting the Masterpieces as the favorite.
In the League of Fantasy Footballers, the Kansas City Titans (6-2) will look to keep pace with the division leaders as they face off against the Purple Cobras (3-5). The Titans will be without Minnesota DEF along with TE Visanthe Shiancoe as they'll be on the bye while the Cobras will be without K Ryan Longwell. There are huge question marks at RB as Steve Slaton may or may not be benched given last week's horrible performance. He along with Kevin Smith (health) will be gametime decisions. Key matchup will be at the DEF position (Arizona vs. New York Giants). As of right now, Yahoo is predicting the Cobras as the favorite.
In the Pigskin Prognosticators league, the Krakow Tigers (5-3) will face off in the matchup of the week as they take on the MidwestCoastOffense (8-0). The Offense is managed by Stephen, a great friend and fellow alum from Union. The two teams squared off in Week 2 with the Offense getting the victory. For the Tigers, they will be without star RB Adrian Peterson as he’ll be on the bye. The Offense will be without WR Percy Harvin as he'll will be on the bye. These two teams have the two longest current winning streaks. Key matchup will be at the K position (David Akers vs. Nick Folk). As of right now, Yahoo is predicting the Offense as the favorite.
