Written by Dale Walters and Adam Ireland
In a resounding display of determination and prowess, the Moscow Black Bears roared back to form with a stunning Week 7 triumph over the Albuquerque Roadrunners, breaking their four-game losing streak and reasserting their presence within the league standings. Coach Rick Vise’s palpable discontent over the team’s recent performance served as a motivating factor for the Black Bears, igniting a fervent determination to secure a crucial win and reverse their downward trajectory. With the Roadrunners also experiencing their share of ups and downs, the stage was set for an intense battle of wills on the field.
The game unfolded as a testament to the Black Bears’ relentless pursuit of victory, driven by a fervent “win-now” mentality that reverberated through every play. Despite quarterback Joe Burrow’s absence due to a bye, the team rallied around the seasoned leadership of Russell Wilson, who delivered a commendable performance, securing 15.1 crucial fantasy points for the team. However, the real stars of the game were the Black Bears’ dynamic offensive lineup, with D’Onta Foreman’s exceptional three-touchdown display, Jordan Addison’s impressive two-touchdown performance, and the standout contributions from T.J. Hockenson and Amon-Ra St. Brown, amplifying the team’s overall scoring prowess.
On the other side of the field, the Roadrunners struggled to find a response to the Black Bears’ relentless offensive onslaught, managing a modest 88.6 points. While Trevor Lawrence and Saquon Barkley led the charge for the Roadrunners with 19.9 and 22.8 points, respectively, their efforts fell short in the face of the Black Bears’ dominant performance.
Looking ahead, the Black Bears are gearing up to face the El Paso Red Devils (1-6) next week, setting their sights on extending their newly regained winning momentum and cementing their resurgence within the league hierarchy. Meanwhile, the Roadrunners brace themselves for a formidable challenge against the Montana Wombats (5-2), preparing to navigate through the intricacies of an intense battle that will undoubtedly test their mettle and resolve on the field.
