It was a hard-fought battle. Team HELLMUTHofFF1 entered the week in 3rd place at 11-5, and faced 2nd place Team COACH at 12-4. COACH led in total points by 55 points so for Team H to make the week 10 champtionship, COACH had to go 0-2 with Team H going 2-0. The final was Team H: 112.36, Team COACH: 105.26, with COACH finishing in 6th place to go 0-2.
Team HELLMUTHofFF1 is a Tier 2 and will advance to the Vegas Bracket to play for $1,000,000 regardless of the week 10 league championship matchup. The dream is ALIVE!
In week 10 Team H will face Team Oklahoma Bears 3. Team H won the previous matchup week 7 by a score of 119.64 to 94.34, but Oklahoma Bears had Chris Johnson on bye (Team H had Ray Rice on bye). Week 10 Team H has Andre Johnson, Hakeem Nicks, Ahmad Bradshaw, and Kris Brown on bye. Team Oklahoma Bears 3 is full strength. It should be a great matchup with $180 + a Tier 1 entry for next year up for grabs for Team H.
Of the 5 Team H tier teams HELLMUTHofFF1 is the lone survivor (with one Q team also still in the running). Of course, with the new rules this year it's still anyone's game (see the previous blog entry). The preliminary starting lineup for week 10 looks like this:
Drew Brees vs St Louis
Ray Rice vs Cleveland
Rashard Mendenhall vs Cincinnati
Greg Jennings vs Dallas
Eddie Royal vs Washington
Johnny Knox vs San Fran
Antonio Gates vs Philadelphia
Carson Palmer vs Pittsburgh
Jeff Reed vs Cincinnati
New Orleans Defense vs St Louis
Brees, Rice, and the Saints D should have great games. The WRs are looking weak so I need some magic from somewhere. It would be nice if the Gates-of-old would make an appearance this season.
