Outstanding Performances
I really like Nick's performance for most of the game. Until late in the game, he was running well over 50% completions and finished the game with 49.02%. He also had 3 TDs and 300 yards passing! He also threw 3 picks but considering the pressure he was under (sacked 8 times), its not too surprising that he might have a couple miscues. Actually, I was surprised to read that there were 8 sacks because I was amazed at how many times he was escaping pressure to make a good throw. I was especially impressed at how often he was checking down to throw short under those conditions. The week before, the longer the play, the more likely he'd throw long.
Another outstanding performance for Red was Erick who was 13 of 16 for 156 yards and a TD. Seriously, 13 of 16? Those are some of the biggest stats I've recorded on a receiver. He also had a pick, a pass defensed, and a couple flags.
Smitty had a nice debut with 5 flags, a pass defensed, a pick, and a sack on defense. His numbers on offense weren't as good with 3 of 13 and one rush but he did get 69 yards and a TD so that's not shabby at all and he was covered pretty well.
Yellow had a number of nice performances as well starting with our QBs. 355 yards between them and 3 TDs each and very respectable completion percentages (40% for Cain and 45.45% for Leo). Cain added to that with a nice 3 of 6 for 53 yards and a TD receiving and 18 yards rushing as well as 5 flags (1 sack), 1 pass defensed, 1 pick, and a defensive TD.
Matt Cluen was the other great debut. He only had 2 catches for 28 on offense, but he had a very strong defensive game - 8 flags (one sack) and a pass defensed.
But the biggest standouts for Yellow, however were Mark and Ray. Mark was 5 of 6 for 112 yards and a TD receiving and then had a monster day on defense with 7 flags (3 of them sacks). Ray had only 2 catches but they went for 80 yards and 2 TDs. He also had and 9 flags (tops in the game), one pass defensed and another 3 intercepted.
Until I got finished transcribing the game, I had thought the MVP was going to be Ray but when I looked that the numbers, I realized that this week Mark deserves it. Its hard to linemen to get the MVP award but 3 sacks is a big number. Add 4 more flags to that and you have a dominant defensive performance. I think its safe to assume that at least one of Ray's picks occurred in part due to pressure that Mark and Casey (who also had 3 sacks) were putting on Nick. In addition, Mark was clearly a goto receiver for Yellow with his lone miss being a diving attempt that he nearly had that would have been a TD. Also worth mentioning is his TD that was the result of a stiffarm and some serious YAC.
On a personal note, I had mixed feelings about my performance. I feel like I played 2 half games. I had a good first half on offense with 3 catches for 78 yards and 2 TDs. But then I had 2 drops in the second part of the game. On defense, I did little early in the game but then came alive 3 defensed passes and a couple flags.
Week 26 Preview - This game will mark six months of the season gone. There are only a couple months left in the season but so far its been a great one. Weather shows warmer this week with a chance of some rain but as you all know, we play in the rain, seriously.
PS - I made another purchase to enhance the game.
