All time head to head 1-1
All time head to head in postseason 0-0
These two teams are evenly matched in history and we should see a very close game in their first playoff match up.
Ochocinco 16-11-1 (1-1)
History
2008 8-6 2nd in AFL...L Wildcard to 4. W.Dogz
2009 8-5-1 2nd in Central... ???
Ochocinco has been in the GFFL for two years and has made the playoffs in back to back years. In 2008 they were one and done but thanks to a favorable match up against the 3. Mountaineers 80 points was enough to advance. They now stand a win away from the franchises first championship appearance.
Probable Starters
QB Brady
HB C.Johnson
HB Jacobs
HB/WR Crabtree
WR V.Jackson
WR Ochocinco
TE Gonzalez
D Vikings
K Gostkowski
Keys to Win: To get into the 100's this team needs a big game from CJ bottom line even last week with their receivers having pretty good games its obvious his title hopes are tied to 4.24.
What could do him in: If Chris is just average he's in trouble. Brady has some injuries and hasn't looked like the same QB. Jacobs is a mystery as he watched Bradshaw have a huge game, and his flex is a wildcard. This isn't the most complete team due to the RB2 and flex and sometimes dissappearing receivers, but fantasy is won with your studs there is no bigger stud than CJ as I said before CJ goes Christian goes, CJ slowed Christian's title hopes are slowed.
Rayz 16-12 (0-0)
2008 5-9* 4th in NFL...NONE
2009 11-3 1st in East...???
*= taking over for Lawson that season
Taylor Ray took over last season with a dream of taking the down trodden franchise to the playoffs. Well this year has been nothing short of magnificent. When people talk about dream seasons this has to be the top of the list. A team not many had penciled into the playoffs and many still doubted after a 5-0 start due to a mass amount of luck and not too many studs on the team has found their way to the #1 seed. This team has been so lucky Eagles D 37 points, Mendenhall sucks all year Rayz acquire him instant stud, Rayz acquire Benson preseason as an after thought in the Greg Jennings trade he's having a career year, and most recently picked up Harrison who scored 47 points. While they did cool off as of late going 5-4 over the last 9 games the only way to end this dream season is with a title will it happen?
Probable Starters
QB Rivers
HB Benson
HB Mendenhall
HB/WR Harrison
WR Colston
WR Ward
TE Clark
D Giants
K Kaeding
Keys to win: This team scored 132 last week on their bye not exactly loaded with studs but a very complete team. If his players keep doing what they've been doing he should be able to hold off Ochocinco.
What could do them in: Saints or Colts sitting players or pulling them early could be a dagger to this squad. The Luck could run out turning Benson Mendenhall and Harrison back into the proverbial pumpkins they looked to be in preseason. So bottom line the only way this team fails if the luck has finally run out.
This is a tough one to pick between two of my friends and two very different fantasy teams. You have the superstar led Ochocinco against the complete team Rayz. Christmas day is gonna be insanely impactful on this game CJ Rivers VJAX and Kaeding all playing I'm picking the Rayz in a very close game
