1st QuarterThings don't start out well as Tim Brown fumbles the opening kickoff and gives the Falcons pristine field position. Chris Miller is quick to throw a 20 yard touchdown to Michael Haynes (not to be confused with Mike Haynes, who played on the Raiders in the 80's; he was way better). Brown holds on to the next kickoff, and I run Bo Jackson a few times, the last one being a 32 yard TD. On the ensuing drive, Atlanta puts together a -5 yard drive and punts.Raiders 7, Falcons 7 |
Yeah, you could say I'm a little worried... |
Okay, enough already... |
2nd QuarterAfter getting sacked by host of Comedy Central's "BattleBots" Tim Green, I go back to Bo, who runs for 37 yards inside the 10. Allen ends the drive with a 1 yard TD run. The Falcons next drive is all Miller, including a 6 yard run and a 25 yard completion to a leaping Andre Rison inside the 20. After shutting down Mike Rozier (I've been doing it the whole half), Haynes catches another TD. Jay Schroeder gets in yet another incompletion before the half. |

I haven't seen Schroeder this excited since he found out he saved money on his car insurance. |
Behold the power that is Montoya. |
4th Quarter
On 2nd down Miller throws a gift to Scott Davis at the Atlanta 29 at the
start of the 4th. I take full advantage with a 16 yard TD pass to Fernandez
to take the lead. Riki Ellison gets in 2 sacks on the next drive before Scott
Fulhage punts in his own endzone. John Rade sacks Schroeder, making it a
horrible 3 and 16. Schroeder decides to get cute and scrambles but doesn't
even get close. Rison screws up the Falcons golden opportunity by fumbling
the punt return. Max Montoya is there to pick it up and stumbles his way
to the endzone for a TD. Atlanta wastes their last chance on a dump-off to
Rozier to run out the clock. |
