Week 8 Preview

[Paul-London]

New York at Orlando

Its the halfway point of the season, tough game for New York who at times do struggle on offense.  QB Phil Stambaugh has done well but cant seem to throw for any td's to his new WR's.  Orlando are a very good team despite their record and could prove quite a handful at home, one to watch for next year.

Raleigh-Durham at Ohio

Tough game for the Skyhawks away to Ohio and also without Curtis Alexander who is so close to breaking so many records.  Ohio have played very well this year, Raleigh are 3-1 at home but 0-3 on the road.  Ohio expect the win but if Aaron Rodgers has a great game they could get the upset.

Ohio by 7

Birmingham at Mexico

Could be the game to see who will get the top seed in the AFC, huge important tiebreaker. Mexico are unbeaten this year and have played very well, as have Birmingham but Mexico gets the edge as they are at home and move one step closer to winning the AFC West again.

Mexico by 3

Rhein at Sacramento

Its been a nightmare year for the Surge, they have talent but have lost many close games.  Rhein have been exceptional this year and after a 1-3 start have won 3 straight and are in the playoff race.  Last year they were 3-11 !  It'll be a tough away game for Rhein who are 1-3 on the road this year but they could just get the win.

Montreal at San Antonio

Montreal are 4-3 and have lost two straight, they now travel to San Antonio who upset them just two weeks ago in Montreal.  Montreal have had a tough schedule lately but need to pull out a win here, San Antonio could get the upset though.

London at Amsterdam

These two teams met last year in the playoffs but this year the story is different, Amsterdam is high flying at 7-0, London has been hot/cold all year and are 4-3 and clinging onto the playoff race.  The Admirals have been superb this year and should get another win here and move one step closer to the EFC East title.

Amsterdam by 7

Frankfurt at Berlin

Frankfurt have lost 3 in a row and now face Berlin who will be on a high after their first win last week.  Frankfurt are better than a 2-5 record but have lost many close games, this should be a close one but Berlin fans will want to see another home win after getting a taste of it last week.

Berlin by 3

Scotland at Paris

Paris were a playoff team last year but this year have been awful, 79 points in 7 games despite star names at QB and RB ?  Their WR's seem to be letting them down and they need a change.  Scotland have won some big games lately and will need a good win as Paris are better than their record suggests.

Scotland by 7

Austria at Barcelona

The DarkKnights have lost two straight games and are now 4-3 but surely they wont lose to Barcelona ?  Barcelona as always have played well but cant finish off a team, Austria badly need the win here but there will be pressure on them to win big.
