In a game this big, anything over 40 yards rushing/receiving is pretty good. With taht in mind, I highlight 3 players for Red - Adam with 49 yards on 3 catches, Ray with 48 yards on 3 catches, and the Curtis with 41 yards and a TD on 3 catches. Yellow's leaders include Nick with 41 yards on the ground and Jimmy who eclipsed all receivers on the day with 79 combined yards.

Not surprisingly in a game this big, there are a lot of defensive performances to highlight. Burlseon with 3 flags, a defensed pass that led to a pick and had a pick himself. Ray had identical numbers and also returned his pick for a TD. Canadian had 3 flags and a pick. Chris had a pick and a sack. Curtis' debut was impressive with 4 flas, a defensed pass, and a pick.

Chenault had 4 flags, a defensed pass and a sack. Ethan with 3 flags and a sack. Levonce had a flag, a pass defensed, and a pick and was a terror on the rush. Louis had 5 flags. Mark had 6 flags and 2 sacks.

MVP: This week's winner is Ray who had nice games on both offense and defense.

4-10 from the 30: Pass by Nick to Chenault - picked by Hippie. Chenault calls PI because his leg got tangled up with another player though there was considerable belief that there was no way he could have jumped high enough to get the overthrown ball. Down is replayed.

3-7 from the 27: Pass by Nick to Teo for 19 yards - stopped by going out of bounds.

1-Goal from the 8: Pass by Nick to no one, it was thrown away - incomplete. Flea-flicker. Play was supposed to be a draw to Chenault. Chenault didn't like the blocking so he pitched back to the QB but the pressure was on and Nick threw it away. Worth noting is that there was some discussion about whether it was Intentional Grounding - Nic was well within the pocket. For those of you who don't remember last year, we decided that Intentional Grounding should be treated like a sack because it only happens when the defense has bottled up the QB and likely would have gotten a sack at that spot. Biscuits stated that with the flea-flicker, grounding is allowed. HOWEVER, I CAN FIND NOTHING IN THE NFL RULES (YES, I OWN THEM) THAT SAYS THAT GROUNDING IS PERMITED IN THIS SITUATION. HENCEMORE, UNLESS SOMEONE CAN SHOW ME NFL RULES TO THE CONTRARY, GROUNDING RULES WILL BE ENFORCED EVEN WITH A FLEA-FLICKER OR HALF-BACK OPTION.

1-10 from the 30: Pass by Nick to Barry for 30 yards and the TD. Barry comes on a 10 yard cross and is able to turn the corner on the sideline because of a huge block by Louis.

That's the game.

5 - 0, Yellow.

Kuzi was the only player with more than 50 yards with 67 yards and a TD. The next best was Louis with 37 and a TD and then Barry, Chenault, and and Street with 30 each (Barry getting his on one play that was also for a TD). This is what happens when we get 23 players.

Couple of very nice defensive games, however. Adam had 3 defensed passes and 6 flags (only 1 or 2 as a corner). Jessie had 2 flags, 2 defensed passes, and a pick. Hippie had 6 flags, 2 sacks, a defensed pass, and a pick. Hill had 2 sacks too. Leo had a defensed pass and pick to go with a couple flags. On Yellow, Chenault had the biggest day with 3 sacks (one for a safety), a heads up pick for a TD, and an extra flag in the mix. However Street's 2 flags, 2 defensed passes and 2 picks and Kuzi's defensed pass and 2 picks were also very good. Can't forget Chris with 2 defensed passes (one which turned into Chenault's pick/TD) and a sack and Louis had a defensed pass and a pick as well and then Barry made a nice play for the safety after a pick by Leo.

MVP: Tough this week. Chenault had a huge game on defense and a decent game on offense. Kuzi had the bigger game on offense and still a very big game on defense. They are the two main candidates. They both had 2 rushes for about 10 yards (10 for Chenault, 11 for Kuzi). They were both passed to 4 times and had 2 receptions and though Kuzi had more yards and a TD - Chenault is slow so what do you expect? Besides he did get the defensive TD to offset Kuzi's TD advantage on offense. On defense, Kuzi had 3 impact plays and Chenault had 4 so the extra impact play by Chenault on defense makes up for the lower yards on offense.

This is as close to a perfect tie as I can imagine and thus we have a tie between Kuzi and Chenault for this week's MVP award.

Week 4 Game Summary (played 10/6/07)
My thanks to Biscuits, Casey, Chenault, Cluin, Day, Hill, Jimmy, Mark, Nick, Ortega, and Treadway for their timely arrivals.

Little thing about game times, this year we've had great timeliness. While not everyone is there and ready to play by 9:00 each week, we still get enough there that the first huddle has started at 9:10 every week. This is night and day compared to last year where a 9:20 start time was "good."

Having said that, when it's 90+ degrees for most of the game, it would be nice to stop the game at some time close to noon - 12:35 being rather a bit long it that heat. Nevertheless, it was a really good game. I think everyone who was there will attest to that - particularly when the score was 3-0 at one point and then the final score ended up at 5-4 and not due to luck or crappy play by defenses.

R Adam, Andy, Day, Ethan, Hill, Jimmy, Nick, Ortega
Y Biscuits, Canadian, Casey, Chenault, Cluin, Leo, Mark, Treadaway

4 - 1, Yellow.

1-12 from the 8: Pass by Nick to Adam for 7 yards - stopped by Canadian. Ball comes out low and Adam has to slide headfirst and keep hands under the ball to get a catch. This would be a good play for instant replay.

400 yards passing? That may one of the biggest passing days we've had since we started tracking stats. The completion percentages we're pretty good though not great (50% completion rate is the threshold for "great" in our game).

We start off with several nice performances: Day with 58 yards. Canadian with 64 yards and a TD, and Ethan with 80 yards. Then we move to two outstanding performances: Biscuits with 117 yards and a TD and Jimmy with 181 yards and 3 TDs. Jimmy also had the most catches (8) and 3 rushes.

Quite a few nice defensive games this week. Biscuits had 3 defensed passes including 2 during the last possession that prevented Red from tying it up. These plays (along with a defensed pass by Treadaway) preserved the victory for Yellow. Speaking of Treadaway, he had 3 flags, 2 defensed passes, and a pick. Mark had 7 flags and sacks as usual: 2 for 17 yards in losses. A nice performance by Cluin with 3 flags, a defensed pass and 2 sacks. But Yellow's best defensive performance was probably Canadian's with 9 flags, 2 defensed passes, 3 PICKS with one returned for a TD.

Red had a couple nice defensive performances with Hill getting 6 flags and 2 defensed passes. Nick got a couple flags, a defensed pass, a pick (on a great effort), and a sack. Adam had 13 flags which is pretty good considering he played safety or linebacker for most of the game and didn't get many of those flags in direct coverage.

MVP: I have been debating the MVP award this week for the last two days. Some weeks its tough to pick an MVP because there weren't any super-standout performances. This week, however, there are three performances that could win any week. The biggest problem is that they all happened this one week.

The nominees are:

1) Biscuits who had a breakout performance on both offense and defense.;
2) Canadian who continued the excellent play he started the season with two weeks ago (though he didn't continue his timeliness); and
3) Jimmy who simply had an amazing offensive performance.

Now, here are a couple things to remember. MVP is supposed to be the single best performance of the week. Preferably it would involve strong games on defense and offense (Biscuits and and Canadian both had strong games in that regard). Usually, the MVP goes to a player on the winning team, as well.

However, you have to remember the origins of the MVP award in our game. Several years ago, a guy named Alex came out and had a game for the ages. I wasn't keeping stats like I am now but he had something like 3 picks and 5 sacks (or 5 picks and 3 sacks - I can't remember which) some of the picks were returned for TDs and he had big offensive yards and TDs too. Basically, Alex simply took over the game and was unstoppable.

When I look at the stats from this week's game, there was one player who's performance rose to something close to that level. 181 yards and 3 TDs is amazing. While Ethan's arrival helped Red settled down, Jimmy's play is what brought Red into a tie and turned a blowout into a very tight game.

Without Jimmy's play, Red would likely have been blown out. This is not to take anything away from Biscuits or Canadian who I applaud for their terrific games.
