I was dreading a matchup with Bronx end of season... glad it was MeM that landed them and not us (although could still happen)

a matchup against a top-notch pro team is always bummer of a late season matchup for a top vet team... a loss would totally hammer your ELO

Hm I'd probably have to make MEM the favorite, but I definitely think Bronx has a puncher's chance. They've never had much trouble with Central's rushing attack, but MEM's backs will bring a little extra power to the table.

Should be an interesting game. Bronx hasn't faced a running team as good as ours but Bronx's passing offense will be difficult to contain.

MEM should be the easy favorite and I would be surprised if Bronx pulls it out. ~20,000 SPs at nearly every position is very hard to overcome even with Passing being better than rushing.

Well Bronx overcame it against Logzilla so it's definitely possible.

I'm guessing Bronx. I don't know how their D is made up, but I'm betting that containing MEM's offense wont be a problem for them. You don't win 65 games in a row without being able to handle rushing teams. Can MEM slow down an extremely efficient and well built offense? Yes...but not enough for their own offense to make it a toss-up.

27-17 Bronx.

Not that I disagree with this statement. The agents on this team are all quite knowledgeable. But it doesn't look like they have faced a nearly good all rush team since Hub City and MEM back in season 10.

#2 Madison almost upset by Niagara today

looking ahead to DA, I threw together a half-assed defensive gameplan against Niagara today, and it showed... I couldn't keep them off the field... +17:00 of TOP for them... we only ran 52 plays on offense

Niagara has always been a feisty team. Inconsistent on when their feistiness shows up. It pleases me that other people get to experience it.

yea I mean they aren't a horrible team... they've played some tough teams close this year. But I should have prepared better.... there were some tactical flubs I made and some plays I should have outright avoided.

Been a rough season for us this year, but love to give you guys a tough time as often as we can.

lol think its 67 for the record, might very well end at 67 though.

itll be a close one and come down to turnovers, we are decent at shutting down the run, but our D is not built for turnovers so I am assuming those odds are on their side (esp with the tier difference) so we'll see how the sim plays out. should be a fun one either way. gl MEM

Richmond killed Hostile because of some bad playcalling on defense, but mostly because of poor tackling. Final score looks competitive, but the game was not.

And Bronx takes down MEM. That is insane. This team is scary.
