Week 14 Predictions:

Drunken Munkeys over Burnt Orange Rising W

Is there anything to say here? The Munkeys will extend the league leaders in every stat and win by the largest margin of the season.

Glasgow Doom over Iceland Dream Team L

They match up, but I think the Doom have the X-factor, should be a good game.

Amsterdam Smokers over Barcelona Admirals W

The Smokers are rolling, this won't be the easiest test but should win this. The Admirals are working on next season and maybe even be a league leader.

Coventry Terror over Dublin Boghoppers L

The Terror have been on a terror with a stumble last week but rebound this week. The Boghoppers stumbled last week as well as just might keep stumbling here as the Terror have improved greatly lately.

Oslo Norsemen over Brussels Massacre L

Upset special, Norsemen continue the streak as it end Massacre's, should be a slug fest.

Amsterdam Red Lights over Arlington Avalanche W

ARL keep the light green in this match-up, the Avalanche are in a losing streak not scoring a single point, this could be the 7th time this season it could happen.

Athens Nighthawks over Syracuse Slashers W

Nighthawks are recovering from the chem hits and the Slashers could sneak away with a win if it affects to much on the field, but I don't think so.

Dayton <-FnA-> over Maniac Shadows W

We shall see.

Thoughts?


Amsterdam Red Lights vs. Arlington Avalanche 27-0

Brussels Massacre vs. Oslo Norsemen 17-10

Iceland Dream team vs. Glasgow Doom 21-6

Maniac Shadows vs. Dayton <-FnA-> 17-24

Dublin Boghoppers vs. Coventry Terror 24-6

Syracuse Slashers vs. Athens Nighthawks 0-38

Burnt Orange Rising vs. Drunken Munkeys 0-40

Barcelona Admirals vs. Amsterdam Smokers 7-20

5-3, not great, not bad, couple of close games to call but also 3 shut-outs thrown today

Looks like 9 teams are still in contention for playoffs. Which one of the 9 do you think won't be there?

My guess is it will be one of the 8-6 teams, just a hunch.

Not going to make any predictions though...

Still in disbelief I went back to our team forum to re-read my overview of IDTs offense and here's what I wrote:

The Dream plan:

Unlike the Burnt Orange our Icelandic opponent isn't going to be a pushover. They really don't match up to us, but they do have a couple of players that could be a problem. One their running backs are very fast. Two they are deep for their level at every position, and they rotate like crazy so no player is on the field at less than 90 energy. Three they have recruited several players in the recent weeks most notably a LVL 14 WR who they've "hidden" at fourth on the depth chart. That tells me they are determined to do everything they can to upset us. Truth be told it looks like many of their players have underperformed and should in no way be overlooked.


I'm a fricking defensive fortune teller and we still couldn't beat them that day. Now I want to make others feel my pain even more.

I was watching my player DE-Taime Downe (cheap plug) and thought that we did really well. I made sure no one got by me etc. and then I looked at the final score and was like wow! 21-6? It looked like every other game except they were able to get TDs where other teams were only kicking field goals.

Nice job, Dream Team!

Week 15 Predictions:

Drunken Munkeys over Iceland Dream Team

This will be a good game, the best passing offense in the conference against the second best passing defense, but the Munkeys have beat better teams threw the air and this wouldn't be any different.

Dublin Boghoppers over Glasgow Doom

Game of the week here, the Boghoppers own, by far, the best rushing defense in the league and the Doom ain't no slouch in the rushing department, this could become an aerial assault game, quick.

Amsterdam Smokers over Maniac Shadows

Another good game, but the Shadows seem to be off on the planning side a little and the Smokers may win this by a mile, but if the Shadows can get the plan close it could be good.

Brussels Massacre over Coventry Terror

The Terror have been coming around but the Massacre is a tested team and should be able to hold the Terror off by 7 or less.

Athens Nighthawks over Barcelona Admirals

The still recovering Nighthawks draw an easy schedule here at the end of the year and should win this one too. The Admirals are still getting closer but haven't hit the nail yet, we'll see next season.

Amsterdam Red Lights over Oslo Norsemen

Damn, the good games just keep piling up this week as the higher ranked ARL roll into Norsemen land. ARL have the higher rank according to the BCS, but that ain't everything, but in this to close to call game I'll go with ARL (which means the Norsemen will probably win)


Dayton <-FnA-> over Burnt Orange Rising

If we lose this, we'll be the league laughing stock for a season, lol. They are making strides forward, I just don't see them winning this year.

Arlington Avalanche over Syracuse Slashers

A boost to the ego game.

Thoughts?

Im rooting for Iceland Dream Team to win cause if they lose they are more than likely out from playoff contention. I want them to make it to playoffs cause I think they have the better chance to beat the Munkeys in the playoffs than the Norsemen.

the Norsemen appreciate the underdog card. When you pick us to win we lose, so hopefully this works. =)

And we'll see today if Iceland really has the ponies to beat the munkeys this week...won't have to wait till playoffs.

You're saying our game against the Smokers will be good, but I have a feeling they are going to beat us like 45-6. Here's hoping you're right and we play these guys like we played the Munkeys.
