Atlanta 26 Tampa Bay 14

A very entertaining game, filled with long passes bad throws and lots of turnovers!  This one started off like a slug fest as both teams went back and forth scoring 2 TD's each on 4 consecutive drives! Then both defenses dug in and neither team would reach the end zone again.  Thankfully for Atlanta Norm Johnson was 4 for4 on Field Goals and that would be the difference. In the end Atlanta (down to 1 RB and No tight ends) manage to hold off the orange clad Bucos 26-14! 
Tony is a great person to play with, once again win or lose this league is amazingly enjoyable!  Cheers Tony!

LA Raiders 20 New England 24

New England wins an evenly played game 24-20 as Bledsoe goes 27 of 38 for 270 yards, 3 TD's and No Int. Ben 'Winter"Coates and Vincent "the ultimate" Brisby each haul in 9 passes.  Hostetler was also in fine form going 22 of 36 for 286 yards with 2 TD's and 1Int.  Tim Brown was unstoppable hauling in 7 passes for 170 yards!  Another entertaining "94" season game!

Denver 38 Seattle 34

The Seahawks hosted the Broncos in battle of 1-win teams. Defense was (to say the least) not prominently featured. The lead shifted back and forth throughout the game, with the Seahawks generating 529 yards total offense. Denver scored a touchdown to go up 38-34 with 3:30 left in the game, and the Broncos coach knew that was too much time. Sure enough, Seattle drove down the field with a smart mixture of runs and passes. The game basically ended when a Rick Mirer pass misfired on 4th and 2 with 8 seconds left from  the Denver 10.

Great game called by Steve. Chris Warren gained 229 yards with 2 tis and Rick Mirer and John Elway both averaged over 10 yards a pass for most of the game.

Atlanta 30 Washington 19

Jeff George
Another entertaining game that saw about it all.  Atlanta seemed in control early up 10-0 after 2 drives , but on 3rd drive George is picked and ball returned to Atlanta 3.  At 10-7, Atlanta again looks ready to score when George losses a fumble. 2 plays later Johnson steps in front of Ellard and goes 11 yards for the pick 6.  Then at end of half , vs the prevent Friesz, replacing Shuler hits Ellard for 80 yards and with 2 sec still on clovk kick a FG to cut lead to 7.
Each team took long scoring Field goal drives to account for entire 3rd and part of 4th Q. Atlanta would then go on a 7 minute scoring drive to go up 10...and hold on after another frenetic 5 minutes.  Definately a fun game.
Atlanta wins 30-19
Thanks again to Bruce Thomas for subbing.

Kansas City 38 Atlanta 35

Joe Montana and the Chiefs win
their first game of the season.
A shootout at the Georgia Dome!  This was an aerial assault all the way, with both teams going to the air , Montana 27 of 37, 287 yards, 3 TD and 1 int, and George 31 of 45 353 yards , 4TDs and 1 int. The difference very well might have been a 93 yard KO return from Dickerson (long of 64), which at that point led to a KC TD and a 14-7 lead.  just another fun game with KC totaling 350 net yards and Atlanta 452.
Both teams are now 1-2 for the season.
Thanks Celo for a fun game!
