The Bradshaws provided headaches for both teams
ON THE FIRST Monday Night game in FFL history, the Raiders finally notched another win under the leadership of QB Steve Benson and a 'Greatest Show on Turf' ensemble of receivers that gave the Raiders the speed they needed to win. Rookie standout Steve Bradshaw kept it close as the game's all-time offensive player.
With Benson at the helm, the Raiders finally utilized all their drafted speed and put on a show against the big n' strong Vikings. For the first time in years, WRs Pat Fryberger and John Bradshaw got to share the same jersey, teaming with rookie Steve Bradshaw for an electric attack--each hauled in 4 or so touchdowns. Cullen C. continued to improve his play at TE, snatching some snazzy catches and a few TDs. Darren Preiner had solid play at CB while Corey C. had the best game of his career, sacking the quarterback twice over and adding some 10-20 yd. scampers on offense.
For the Vikings, QB Bryan Peterson slipped in his production from the past couple weeks but still led a decent-enough attack. That said, he was repeatedly replaced by Daniel "The Mad Bomber" Preiner in long ball situations, who also did respectably at receiver. Long-armed (and 2009 MVP) Aaron Potvien slowed the Raiders passing game with some big defensive stops, Big Dan Benson gave the Raiders' O-line nightmares, and Kellen Preiner was ever-versatile in the Vikings roaming zone D. Vikes all-star Dave Benson was off his game for the first time in remembrance.
Rookie Steve Bradshaw juked defenses all day long
The game almost marked the first kickoff return of the season. The Raiders now have a slim chance of making the Championship though it would take winning from here on out.
Tune in next week for doubleheader action, including another Monday Night contest as the Raiders take on the Vikings in the Fryberger Football League 2010 season.
Run, Raiders, run!
