   The Touchdowns look to continue their impressive win streak (7 straight) this week in a crucial 2nd round playoff match up against the Firechefs. Here at BWKNBNC we received an infusion of capital (10% of the total pot approved by both commissioners) to cover the remaining games.

Let's see how this game stacks up


Key Matchup - Leveon Bell vs David Johnson

Leveon Bell has been unstoppable lately scoring in double digits his last 5 games including a ridiculous 47 Points last week. GM Justin Van Kueser mentioned that Leveon was highly motivated by the most recent power rankings which state that the firechefs were the most overrated team in the league.

Lining up opposite him for the Touchdowns is David Johnson who is the #1 back in the league and has scored in double digits every game this year. GM Mike Gomez's selection of Johnson with the #2 overall pick has paid huge dividends and got him to where he is today.

Injuries 

The Touchdowns led all teams in the KSFBFFL with 1383 points in the regular season but enter the playoffs with a banged up team. #1 QB Aaron Rodgers is questionable with a calf injury while #4 RB Melvin Smelvin Gordon is doubtful after getting Bo Jackson'd last week. "Melvin will be a game time decision this week" Coach Gomez said, " We are confident in his recovery but if he can't go Carlos is ready to fill in and take us to the title game"

Over in North OP the Firechefs have battled through a rash of Injuries this year (AD, Sammy Watkins, ETC) but their squad is surprisingly healthy. When asked for a comment about his team's perseverance GM Justin Van Kueser had this to say "Our players have done an incredible job of blocking out the negative media this year. Our injuries were tough but the constant bulletin board material provided by the media helped lead us to our first round victory over the arch rival footlongs"

Coaches 

Despite the fact that the Touchdowns have never won a playoff game Coach Van Kueser is not taking the matchup lightly. "We look forward to the challenge of playing the Touchdowns. Their record and point total speak for itself and we know we are in for a dogfight." He said before trashing them viciously "but we all know regular season stats mean nothing when it comes to the playoffs and we feel our Championship pedigree will show on the field."

Coach Gomez responded "2013? Thats when the Firechefs won their title? Wasn't OBAMA just starting his second term? This is Trumps America now. Our guys are focused on getting the W this week and a championship won 3 years ago has no impact on the field"

BWKNBNC Prediction 

This should be a close matchup. The Firechefs can't expect Leveon to score over half their points again this week and will need huge games from Derek Carr and Dez Bryant this week if they hope to reach the championship game again. The Touchdowns depleted roster has given them hope but here at BWKNBNC we predict that Aaron Rodgers will be a go and Carlos Hyde will fill in admirably for Smelvin Gordon.

Touchdowns 101, Firechefs 82
