Hope to back in a couple of days 🙂

A champion has finally been crowned in a tight contest with only 3 points separating the teams. An interception with 3 plays left of the game blew the chances of the losing team

 

Match report will hopefully be up tomorrow 🏈

It was then Carolina's turn to intercept a pass their #11 collects the ball on his own 45 yard line, nobody back in defense to stop him and he gets into the end zone for a TD, PAT blocked, Jets recover but was tackled almost immediately. CAR 19-14 NYJ. Jets 4th&1 on CAR 31 yard line, coin was tossed to determine if they go for it or if they attempt the field goal, FG attempt was the outcome this proved very costly. 48 yard field goal attempt. 6 was rolled, kick way way too short, CAR #22 back on the 5 yard line catches the short attempt and runs it all the way to the end zone for a TD thanks to incredible blocking by his team mates, PAT GOOD. CAR 26-14 NYJ. Poor KO return by Jets only managing a 5 yard return, CAR intercepts a pass attempt, Panthers #5 tackled straight away. CAR #22 fumbles the pass, recovered by his team mate #72 who breaks a tackle and scores a TD, PAT blocked, Jets #40 gets it to near the 50 before being tackled

Half time: CAR 32-14 NYJ

Q3: NYJ #21 fumbles pass on his own 22 yard line, he recovers but is shoved out of bounds for a short gain. NYJ rack up consecutive first downs and are controlling possession well but a lack of concentration by their QB who throws another interception deep in Panthers territory. CAR #22 takes the interception up to the CAR 39 yard line. Hand off to CAR #22 for a big 55 yard rush but he ends up running out of bounds 2 yards short of the end zone!!! CAR #11 receives the TD pass, special teams in bad form as PAT missed. CAR 38-14 NYJ. 2 intercepted passes in a row followed, first by NYJ then it was the Panthers turn to throw the ball straight into the arms of a Jets player. NYJ with a spectacular 75 yard TD pass, PAT GOOD

End of the 3rd: CAR 38-21 NYJ

Q4: CAR #43 fumbles the kick off, CAR #22 recovers and can only get up to his own 13. Another 1 was rolled and it is an interception in favour of the Jets in Panthers territory.

CAR #11 in for a 32 yard rushing TD with help of his blockers and breaking a tackle, PAT missed. CAR 44-28 NYJ. Jets with a monster 82 yard kick off return before turning around. Jets QB fumbles the snap, #40 recovers but is tackled behind the line of scrimmage for a short loss. Jets with the final score of the game, an 18 yard TD Pass to #21, PAT GOOD

Final score: CAR 44-35 NYJ

The Panthers take the shield back to Charlotte and a well deserved 3rd place finish after a very disappointing start to the tournament. The Panthers seemed to be totally transformed after their disappointing group stage results and just missed out on a final spot by a whisker. They should be very proud of their achievements and will be exciting to see what this Panthers team produces in the future!

Ravens are Super 6 Champions!!!

[MK1603]

Well that is it! The Ravens take the Super 6 Championship to Baltimore after a nail biting match with the Titans!!

Big thank you to everyone who stopped by and left a comment it is always appreciated 🙂

The next edition of the Super 6 will be bigger and better with more teams and we will see if Baltimore can come back to the UK and retain their title or perhaps another team will come along and knock the Ravens off their perch. We will see when Super 6 returns in 2022

Next up we have an exhibition college match up between the Iowa Hawkeyes and the Michigan State Spartans. As a test run for my first 11 V 11 game, with a potential college tournament in the near future. Match reports wont be as detailed unfortunately but I will mention some  big plays and highlights, also will add a few pics

Thanks again

Mike

Hate that my favorite, the Titans couldn't pullout the Championship win, but congrats to the Ravens. 

[MK1603]

They came so close near the end. Was rooting for them to steal the show but just wasn't to be unfortunately!

Luck of the dice just not on their side! Looked fairly strong throughout may need to switch some bases to add a bit of speed on their receivers because they are one of the slower teams in my collection but have a lot of strength in the line. A lot of potential 🙂

Titans might pick up something in future events so watch this space 😀
