New York Giants at the Superdome vs the New Orleans Saints
Giants win 34-17
Saints opened the scoring with the first drive of the game hitting a fg to go up 3-0. After some good defense and alternating possesions, the giants score on a Warner to Shockey 63 yard td pass to go up 7-3. A few plays later Brent Alexander picks off an Aaron Brooks pass and seemingly returns it 46 yards for a touchdown. However it was called back for clipping during the return. Giants later score on that drive with a fg to go up 10-3.
In the 2nd quarter Brooks throws a bomb to Horn to tie the game at 10 a piece with a 50 yard td pass. Giants answer back with a 50 yard td pass of their own with a Warner to Hilliard connection.
In the 3rd quarter giants get the ball first and immediately go up 24-10 with another Warner to Hilliard td pass of 34 yards. Giants add another fg to go up 27-10. Saints come right back as Brooks hits Joe Horn for another long td pass of 55 yards to cut the lead to 24-17.
4th quarter was all Tiki Barber as he on the day ended up with 149 yards on 25 carries. On one drive in the 4th Tiki had 47 yards rushing which culminated with a tiki 1 yard plunge to end any saints chance at winning the game. With a 34-17 score giants go to a 1-0 record while the saints fall to 0-1. Next game gaints at bengals, saints at cards. -

Arizona at Oakland
The Cardinals struggled out of the gate. 3 Interceptions and a Fumble led to a Raider 20-0 first half lead. Oakland then got conservative and Arizona began to chip away. It was 20-3 at the half, and 20-10 by the end of the 3rd quarter. The Cards scored again with a field goal in the 4th to make it a one score game, but the Raiders held on the following possession and Arizona ran out of time.

OSFL2
CIN 17 VS SF 37
With the first game of the season and Niners were trying to get a good start and that they did, With the first half a close battle the Niners slipped too far ahead of the Bengals.
1st Qtr. Extremely tight battle with no points for either team.
2nd Qtr. The Niners strike first with a 20yrd pass to Lloyd for SF td. Cinn’s Kitna throws an Interception to Smith for a SF defensive TD making it 14-0. Cinn would not fold. They capped a long drive with a 1yrd Johnson run making it 14-7. SF answers the call and scores on a 59yrd TD pass to Lloyd across the middle making it 21-7. Cinn gets a late FG making it close 21-10. Back and forth 2nd qtr.
3rd Qtr. SF put the clamps on defensively and blanked the bengals in the 3rd and adding two more FGs making it 27-7.
4th Qtr With the score 27-7 Cinn needed to make things happen and happen soon. Although they scored a late TD the Niners Defense added another Interception for a TD and another FG to end the game 37-17.
Defense and Turnovers were the key for the Niners success.
GG here!

Those two defensive touchdowns absolutely killed me. I might have to start Palmer next game after Kitna's jawdroppingly bad performance. Haha.Comment

Then on their next possesion Kitna hits Chad Johnson on a 70 yard td pass to tie the game at 24 all (if your wondering I think johnson did the crip walk for his td celebration).

Benglas then move the ball into giants territory but can not get close enough for a score as their Fg attempt is no good.

Re: *OSFL SEASON 2* Game Results Reporting Thread
What isn't clear from this recap is the fact that Kitna had 350 yards and 3 td, no int in the middle of the third, then collapsed in the 4th for the second consecutive game with terrible ints. Oh Jon Kitna. Why must you devastate me so?Comment

Re: *OSFL SEASON 2* Game Results Reporting Thread
WEEK #2
Cardinals 17 *** Saints 13
It was all Cardinals early as Q1 saw them march on a 10 play drive that was capped off by a 6 yd McCown run to the right as no receivers could bail him out.
In Q2, another sustained drive that culminated in a 17 yard McCown/Boldin connection, putting the redbirds up 14-0. But then New Orleans buckled down late in the half to bring them to within striking distance. From their own 24, it took Brooks and co. only 4 plays to march downfield with the key strike coming to Stallworth for a 48 yard gain and the ensuing pass to Lewis for the 10 yard TD catch. Then with only 30 secs. left in the half McCown, not listening to his head coach decides to get greedy, coughing up the ball once leaving the pocket to his right on a smackdown by Bellamy. Several plays later, Carney boots the 21 yarder through to bring the score to 14-10 at the half.
Q3 was dominated time wise by the Saints, but found their 14 play drive stall at the Arizona 18. Carney knocks through his second on the day making it 14-13.
In Q4, New Orleans tries to keep a drive alive as they go for on 4th and 1 with over 7 mins. to go in the game. But Deuce got stuffed right side killing the drive. After exchanging punts, the Cards took over around the 3:30 mark when on their 5th play of the drive McCown connected to what could have been a drop by Boldin, though some how reeled in the 35 yarder all the way down to the Saints 10. After several short run plays to kill time and Saints time-outs, Rackers chipped one in from the 22. The Saints made a galant effort for last minute magic, as they were able to connect on a long strike all the way down to the Arizona 32, however, the ensuing play saw a Brooks sack and time expire.
Hard battle of momentum shift, that could have gone either way.
Offensive player of the game goes to Josh McCown who was 9/18 for 151 and 1 passing and 1 rushing TD.
Defensive player of the game honors are for Jay Bellamy who forced the late 1st half fumble and changed the game around for the Saints.
GG, silk...... looking fwd to the next!Comment

Re: *OSFL SEASON 2* Game Results Reporting Thread
Oakland at San Fran.
Well lets preface this with the fact that we tried to play this last night. SF was up 24-7 and in total control through the 3rd when the connection was lost. I conceeded the game to GK, but since he is a gamer, he agreed to replay the game.
I am not sure if it was great defense or just putrid offense as neither team was too effective moving the ball. 4 Tim Rattay interceptions led to 10 Raider Points, and a Rattay fumble was returned for a TD. Oakland led 17-0 at the break.
Ken Dorsey came into the game in the 3rd and quickly put the Niners on the board. The Raiders grinded out a long drive which led to a FG. The game was still in the balance until Dorsey threw 2 picks in the 4th, one which led to another Janikowski FG and the other which was returned the distance. The Niners tacked on a late TD.
Final: Oakland 30 San Fran 13.Comment

Arizona Cardinals at Giants Stadium vs the New York Giants
Giants win 14-6
In what was a hard nosed defensive battle, Giants were able to squeak past the Cardinals due to some untimely fg kicking by Rackers. Rackers went 2/4 in his field goal attempts in what may have cost the cardinals the game.
The first bit of scoring took place late in the second quarter when Kurt Warner hit Ike hilliard with a 17 yard touchdown pass to take the lead 7-0. Cardinals answer back with a Rackers field goal to end the half at 7-3.
In the second half no scoring took place till the late 4th when Tiki Barber ran for 59 yards and a touchdown to give the G-men a 14-3 lead. Cardinals again make a strong drive to cut it to 14-6.
In a show of great sporstmanship the cardinals who got the ball back on the onside kick with 45 seconds left down 14-6 decided not to continue to push the envelope, on the replay it clearly showed the ball recovered by the red birds then fumbled yet the official blew the whistle ending the play and a wacky one at that (glitch). Great game by the cardinals D picking warner off twice! great game flyboys!
Giants now have a record of 3-0 and are home for the Raiders while the Cards have a record of 1-2 and are home for the 49er's.Comment

SAINTS VS 49-ERS
13- 16
After a bad defeat in week 2 the Niners were determined to tighten up the Defense in Week 3 Vs the Saints. They did just that by shutting out the Saints in the first half but the Saints hung tough and battled back for a nerve racking ending.
1st Qtr. Touchdown from Rattay across the middle to Woods for a 48yrd TD. end of 1st
2nd Qtr. FG by SF making it 10-0 ending the half. Point to be made SF could have gone up 17-0 but N.O. stopped a 4th and goaline to keep it 10-0.
3rd Qtr. NO gets 2 FGs making it a 10-6 game.
4th Qtr. NO scores a TD taking the lead for the first time in the game. great comeback. 13-10 NO. SF comes back and ties the game on a FG 13-13.
Late in the 4th NO has the ball with a chance to win but they couldnt make a good drive forcing to punt. SF with under 2 min left in the game gets a huge run byBarlow up the middle to put them in FG range. Few more runs and a chip shot FG made by Peterson makes it 16-13. GG!!! tight!!Comment

Re: *OSFL SEASON 2* Game Results Reporting Thread
NINERS VS CARDS

In the middle of the first qtr the Niners striked first with a nice drive capped by a TD pass to Lloyd for 2yrd making it a 7-0 lead. The Niners Scored again in the Second making it a 14-0 lead.
Arizona couldnt get anything going in the first half. The running game was completely shut down.
Second half the Cards came alive with a nice Drive late in the 3rd with a rushing TD by Hambrick for 2 yrds. making it 14-0.
The Cards were not done they added a 4th Qtr FG making it 14-0 and by holding the Niners scoreless for the second half. Both Niner primary receivers were injured for the Second half giving the Cards a chance to take the game away with another TD. but the Niner D would not allow another point making this a close game at the end.
GG Gordie as usual. Our Rivalry is still alive!!Comment

Oakland at NY Giants
As Eli watched from the sidelines, the veteran Kurt Warner through a couple 1st quarter picks. The Giants D stuffed the Raiders and held them to a pair of Janikoski field Goals. In the second quarter, the G-Men started to move the ball, but had problems in the red zone and Warner through a 3rd int. The Raiders converted on this turnover as well and drove the field for a 13-0 lead at the break.
In the second half, the Raiders got the running game going, and Warner through 2 more drive killing interceptions. The Raiders also benefited from some shakey officiating as a few blatant pass interference calls were missed.

Sorry about not keeping up with my games, my internet has been really screwy. I just got my wireless completely fixed (I hope) so Brasill, twosilk, and i think DaFlyBoys, hit me up on AIM or through email when you're ready to play. My Bengals will hopefully start to bring it on D.Comment

Re: *OSFL SEASON 2* Game Results Reporting Thread
SAINTS at BENGALS
38-13
The Saints fell victim to a relentless Bengals defense and an opportunistic Bengals offense in this game. The first quarter began slow, but ended with two forty yard bombs from Kitna to Johnson and Warrick. The second was again a display of Bengals O. After stopping the Saints 3 consecutive plays from inside the one, Carney booted the short kick. Coming right back down the field, Rudi Johnson popped in a 4 yard score.
To open the third, Warrick caught another bullet in the endzone to make the score 28-3. After a quick Saints punt, Shayne Graham booted a 29 yarder to extend the Cincinnati lead. Then came the play that broke the Saints back. On a pass headed for the endzone, Rogers Beckett stepped in the way and took it all the way back for a 99 yard defensive TD. The Saints played some good no-huddle throughout the fourth, but it wasn't enough to put up a lot of yards and a few points. Final score CIN 38 - NO 13.
Good game, Twosilk! I imagine the rematch will be something to see. Can't wait to catch up on all my games.Comment
