Week 9 Preview

Orlando at New York

Orlandos defense has been terrible all year so when their offense played their worst game against the season home against Raleigh things got even worse. New York must be hurting over their loss to Montreal when the Machine came back. The Knights like Orlando have a poor defense this year, they can sack the QB but their pass defense was dire against Montreal allowing 515 yards passing. The Knights really need to win this game and should do at home, look for New York to sort their secondary out. Teams are already ringing NY offering CB's !

Mexico at Ohio

Gotta feel sorry for the Aztecs. Devastating loss to San Antonio as they fumbled away the winning FG. Mexico have lost two games in a row and face one of the toughest AFC teams away in Ohio. Ohios defense has been awesome this year and may face backup QB Chad Hutchinson. Ohio look a great team this year and should win this game.

Ohio by 3

Raleigh-Durham at Montreal

Huge game for both teams, a win here could give the Machine a 3 game lead with 5 weeks to play. Montreal had a great comeback last week but might be down to their 3rd string RB for this game. Raleigh are on a roll at the moment, the offense is clicking, rushing game doing so well and the defense making plays. Could be a tough game and very close.

Montreal by 3

Birmingham at Sacramento

Heartbreaking loss last week for Birmingham, can they bounce back ? Sacramento are 3-5 and back in the playoff race after starting 0-4. The Fire seem to run the ball well lately with HB Lee ReShard with two huge games the last two weeks but they face Sacramento who have an explosive offense. WR Carlyle Holiday is one of the best in the league and is scoring touchdowns every week it seems, all this from WR2 !

Sacramento by 7

Berlin at San Antonio

The Riders finally seemed back to their best last week but lost starting HB Thunder Collins for up to 5 weeks. They may struggle with their backups but QB Michael Bishop has been great the last two weeks and should get a win here. Berlin have played well this year but an away trip to San Antonio will be tough for this young team.

San Antonio by 10

Paris at Rhein

Could be a battle for the number 1 overall pick. Rhein are a very young team and have struggled badly this year, Paris might get HB Robert Edwards back and they really need him as they have looked bad without him. Paris are 0-8 and this is one of their best chances to win a game this year.

Rhein by 3

Barcelona at Amsterdam

After a good start the Dragons are fading, QB Travis Brown is 0-2 but has played well and the team were unlucky last week losing to Scotland which was a huge loss in the EFC West. Amsterdam are 8-0 and have allowed 78 points in 8 games ! Look for Amsterdam to win their 9th game in a row with ease as they are looking amazing at the moment.

Amsterdam by 14

Austria at London

The Monarchs won a very tight game over Frankfurt last week which was huge as they face some tough games in the next few weeks, two Austria games and away in Scotland. London will really want to put a nail in Austrias coffin this week, Austria are two games behind, a win here will give London a 3 game lead with 5 games left to play. The game coming up soon away in Austria will be tougher so they'll want to get a win here at home. The team is playing well but whoever starts at WR3 cant seem to catch any passes whatsoever.

London by 3

Frankfurt at Scotland

Huge win for Scotland last week who get back to .500. They face Frankfurt who are also 4-4 this year, these two teams are battling for the 4th playoff spot in the EFC, a loss here for either team will be huge as they will lose the tiebreaker advantage. Scotland must be favoured as they are at home but surely Frankfurt have to bounce back soon ? QB Rohan Davey again needs a big name WR, the passing game has been terrible this year.
