Week 7 Predications:
Drunken Munkeys over Coventry Terror W
Level for lever the Terror looks like a good team on paper, they just haven't played that way as they rely on the passing game to come from behind alot, and its just no working. The Munkeys however are starting to come back to the other top teams after a great start, and only scoring 34 in their last game and allowing 20 points against for the first time this season. This probably won't be close as the Munkeys continue to roll.
Amsterdam Smokers over Arlington Avalanche W
The Smokers are the only other undefeated team and after their 500 yard performance against the last opponent should be stoked heading into another game they should dominate. The Avalanche are not in a good position on offense as they've been blanked in the last two games and the defense has given up points, probably wore out because the offense can't stay on the field long enough. Smokers hand the Avalanche their 4th loss in a row here.
*Game of the Week*
Athens Nighthawks over Glasgow Doom L see I pick you, and then you lose
This is a close one on paper, the Nighthawks only loss was by 3 points to a very good club and the Dooms only loss was to another very good club by 7. The Nighthawks have only turned the ball over 3 times this season and have a very stout front line on offense. The Doom rely on their passing game and have a 10/6 TD/INT rate so far and they have 7 rushing TD's. Turnovers could break this game.
Dublin Boghoppers over Iceland Dream Team W
The Boghoppers must be adding players all the time as their chemisty keeps dropping but that also means they should be upgrading. They are riding a 3 game winning streak and that should continue as they have a good QB and good HB's to shoulder the offense, and they're blitzing defense gets to the opposing QB often. IDT is coming off a game their offense could only muster 9 points for a team that previosly averaged over 20 recently. They could play with enough heart to take this game but my opinion is they are overmatched here.
Brussels Massacre over Burnt Orange Rising W
Massacre is a good team threw the air with 2 good QB's, but they do throw the pick ball a little too often, but against this team that should be a problem. Rising just isn't living up to their potental, not scoring in 3 straight games, but they seem to be growing with little turnover and with a little better planning on each game could win a game or 2 this season. But right now Massacre should win this pretty easily.
Amsterdam Red Lights over Maniac Shadows W
The Shadows haven't been blown out in any game so far and it wouldn't happen here either, but only being able to muster 2 TD's in the last 3 games isn't going to do it against this team. ARL should be able to move the ball at will on offense either way, air or ground and may even pitch a shut-out on defense.
Dayton <-FnA-> over Oslo Norsemen W
We got this one, we think.
Barcelona Admirals over Syracuse Slashers W
The Admirals are on a big time lossing streak but that will stop here, as they should finaly get the offense going. The Slashers will have a hard time matching up player for player with the this team and will once again look to end the winless season, this might be their best chance for awhile. This could be a very low scoring game.
Thoughts?
Again 7-1, the Nightshawks I seem to be having issues with but overall a good week and there were a few good games Check back tomorrow for week 8 games.
