thanks again to awest827 for covering week 9

WR Paco Keys needs just two reception to increase his all time record TD total to 38 as the Butchers strongarm the Power. the loss is a disheartening one for the Power who have lost two in a row since reaching 500 after their horrendous 0-4 start to the season. their next three games are at home versus divisional opponents

K Cleo Johnson connects on 4 FGs in the first half while RB Russell Maki rushes 22 times for 149 yards and a TD and the Bayhawks shut out the Kraken to move to 8-2. the Bayhawks have a chance for redemption for their week one loss next week when they host the Butchers in what may determine the USA champ

the Golden Eagles improve to 5-4-1 with a shutout over the toothless Bushmasters. San Jose QB Brandon Watts has 0 TDs & 0 INTS in his last 4 games while averaging 91 yards per contest. Mexico City WR Benjamin Penticost rushes for 131 yards to become the first in 2073 to pass the 1000 yard mark. the former champs host Rosario next week before heading out for 4 consecutive road games

QB James Coleman splits double coverage with a pass to RB Manny Pacquiao who takes it 62 yards to the bank in a dramatic late forth quarter home win as the Tide defeat the Dire Wolves in the game of the week. Tijuana WR John Isaacson takes the second half kick off 110 yards to become the 5th player in league history to do so. despite the relatively weak remaining strength of schedule the win is probably too little too late for the Tide while the loss drops the Dire Wolves to 500 in the ever competitive Canada division

the Tornadoes win at home versus the Guazues thanks to WR James Valettas 151 yards and a TD. the Guazues struggles to string together wins continue as they drop to 4-5-1. Guayaquils third consecutive win places them in the wild card hunt. the two team meet again in week 13

RB Haruki Tanaka explodes for 158 yards and a TD on just 17 carries as the Pirates get back to 500 with a defeat of the Zippers in the upset of the week

the Choppers score TDs on three consecutive drives in the second half and win their second on the year with a victory over the Rodeo

the Owls throw some cold water on the Spires playoff hopes with a 16-10 victory in Prague. this was a disappointing loss for the Spires whose remaining schedule is pretty tough. the Owls next 4 games are at home but they do not have an opponent with a losing record for the remainder of the season

Brisbane has some horrible luck in the second half as they drop one to the visiting Trident. the loss is four in a row for the Sharks nad they have been all but eliminated from playoff contention. the win keep the Trident atop the Canada division

QB Charles Lair throws 4 TDs while the Stars have several disastrous drive enders as the Strongbows hand Mumbai a 41 - 9 defeat in the beatdown of the week. this one was hard to watch. Dublin scores on six consecutive drives including 5 TDs to put this one out of reach early. the Stars have 4 turnovers and 3 missed field goals. yikes!

the Macaws earn a quality win over the visiting Heroes for their second W of the season. Ulaanbaatar couldnt get anything going while Havana tacks on two TDs in the fourth for good measure. the Heroes face the Zippers next week in a highly anticipated showdown in the Asia division

the Street Urchins score TDs on their first two possessions and control the game wire to wire with a big win in Philadelphia. RB Rick Shaw has 2 TDs including a 106 KO return for a TD in the fourth (his second on the year). the loss is a very disappointing fourth straight for the Revloution and the Philly fans let them have it. the consensus is that HC Mitchell Smith isnt going to be around next season

RB Melvin Blankenship takes the opening kick off 104 yards the other way and the Stampede have a convincing victory over the Gauchos. the Africa division has a good chance to sport three double digit win teams in consecutive seasons

the Lions keep the 86ers out of the endzone en route to a 14 - 3 victory in Lagos. the teams combined for 22 punts. the Lions face Cairo in a big week 11 game

Manta Rays WR Todd Wilkerson fumbles the ball with a minute to go and the Prizefighters get K Boomer Legaspi in range for his second field goal within the last two minutes steal a victory at home. the win gives Manila a 2.5 game lead in the Oceania division while the loss has likely ended Jakartas post season hopes.....their remaining schedule is not easy

the Deities shutout the Anchors after holding them to just 89 yards of offense. the loss is the second in a row for the Anchors who can not afford any more mistakes if they want to play after week 16. HC Donald Cook is rumored to be on the hot seat after just 10 games in office
