the Revolution remain undefeated and are proving my team of analyst correct. RB Hotcakes Sampson returned a kick off 103 yards the other way after the Bayhawks managed to take the lead halfway through the fourth quarter. SS Robert Marvin records his first two interceptions of the year with one coming late in the fourth to seal the deal. Philadelphia has a tough road test next week in Calgary. the Bayhawks have a shot at redemption at home in week 16..............the Deities keep a grip on the Africa division with a win over the 86ers in a puntfest. a strip sack by DT Eric Cuomo resulting in a second quarter TD proves to be the game winner. 86er QB Steve Williams has a lot of upside but is struggling mightily in his rookie campaign. his numbers at this point are an all time worst for a season. his starting spot does not seem to be in jeopardy as it seems that Johannesburg does not has any dreams of making the postseason this year. it will be interesting to see how Williams develops...............the Power keep a grip on the competitive Canada division with a shutout of the Jaguars and their new owner. welcome to the league, Beardmamba.......... the Zippers stay above 500 with a big win in Auckland. Toyama K William Michael redeems his fourth quarter extra point flub with a game sealer in OT. the loss puts the Anchors in a tie with the Prizefighters for the lead in Oceania and a must win scenario next week in Manila.............the Prizefighters protect home turf from the visiting Golden Eagles and set the stage for a week 11 showdown for control of Oceania. if Manila wants to win the division, it may come down to the play of franchise QB Randy Jackson, who has yet to validate the Prizefighters use of the third overall pick on him in allocation draft. no pressure...........the Gauchos only punt once while dominating the time of possession in a field goal parade versus Oxford. i cant imagine HC Charles Ortega will be back after another disappointing season...........YukonRB Nicholas Barrows fumble before the half sets up a QB Jaxson Bowers to WR Felix Babin TD strike that proves to be the game winner as the Trident stay in the hunt to repeat as division champ. back to back losses are a blow to the Dire Wolves, but they are still in the hunt for both the division title and a wild card spot........the Kings defeat the Pirates and seem to be back on track after winning seven straight. Tel Aviv QB John Cromartie struggles and the Kings turnover concerns (league worst turnover margin with - 17) are still a concern despite their favorable record..........Jakarta K George Mims sends five kicks through the uprights in a victory over the Sharks......in the upset of the week Ulaanbaatar travels almost 6000 miles to Quebec and earn the victory with a fourth quarter TD scamper from rookie 6th round pick RB Kevin Jordan in his only carry of the game. way to go kiddo. however, SLB Slip Pomeroy is the hero in this game after intercepting passes on consecutive drives in the third quarter. both of these interceptions led to points including the game winning TD.........the Tide leave San Jose with a W thanks to a 20 point halftime lead. Bushmaster RB Ahmed Okafor is producing some great numbers for a rookie running back until the fumbles are factored in - ten fumbles in ten games with no recoveries. yikes...................the Butchers are keeping things interesting in the USA division. their victory over Rosario gives them 8 wins, good for a tie for second in the league. Rosario QB Craig Vines throws for 300 yards in the loss. QBs who have thrown for 300 yards are now a combined 4-6-1 on the year...........the Choppers get a win they probably did not want in dramatic fashion. after taking a late lead, the Tornadoes could not contain RB Walter Vanderpool as he returns the kick off 106 yards for the game winning TD with 1:37 left on the clock. Choppers have a chance to get another unwanted win next week at home versus the Golden Eagles.............the Owls take a commanding lead in the Europe division with a beat down of the Strongbows. RB Winston Arriola has two TD runs in the first half and the Owls defense allows just 185 yards. Athens is proving that last year was no fluke and that they are the team to beat in Europe.........the Lions crawl back to 500 after defending the dome from the Spires thanks to big games from RB Sherrif Thompson and newly acquired QB Christopher "the Goat" Silcox. Lions rush for 220 in this one while allowing just 54. however, things arent looking that great in Lagos ever since stand out CB Norbert Osgood broke his foot and has been ruled out for the regular season.........the Stampede win versus Houston in a game that was over early. Houston managed just 9 yards in the first half and ended the game with 6 rushing yards. this game was the beatdown of the week.

So far, I think my team is overachieving. I've got my defense solidified but Jackson has a pretty poor cast around him, so I don't really blame him for the poor play. My team definitely needs a lot of work and my drafts have been poor. Hopefully that changes in the upcoming draft and I can land some weapons for him.

oh, my bad. Didn't realize you went through with your changes. Quite the mid season shuffle there, TheAdmiral. Hope it works out for you

We looked much, much better on Offense today.
