Eagles vs. Rocket - Eagles are coming out of a game where they blew out a decent Limpers team. Hope they take full advantage of the rest week because they have 2 solid game back to back following this cakewalk.
Pick: Eagles
Headhunters vs. Raiders - Raiders come into the game at a perfect 8-0. Though it looks nice, a deeper look at the teams they've played is nothing special. They did beat up on Arizona and FOB, but had a very close one with a so so Limpers team. They need to start putting some real work in now though as their next two games are going to be their biggest of the season with games vs Madmen/Camaros still looming. GLB is coming off a big win in which they held a very strong run game to just 3 points. GLB can't sleep on this game either though, Raiders are still a good team and need to be taken seriously.
Pick: GLB
Madmen vs. Crew - Madmen still looking good so far with just one loss on their record. This will be the same as their last, gimme.
Pick: Madmen
Camaros vs. Knock Outs - Well on the plus side, Camaros top games are out of the way. On the down side, they weren't able to pick up a win in any of them. They'll keep chugging along though and plowing through CPU's until their next match though. I think Camaros win out from here until playoffs, just remember I called it.
Pick: Camaros
Limpers vs. Spartans - CPU win for Limpers here as they recover from 2 losses. They need to get back on their feet and back in the game for a good playoff seed.
Pick: Limpers
Punishers vs. Crabs - This a big match up for the Eastern conference boys. Punishers are still perfect, though honestly I don't see it lasting the entire season. They're a good team, and this is there chance to prove what they can bring to the table. Crabs are an interesting team. Two tough early losses paired with 2 good wins. This will be a defining game for the Crabs as well.
Pick: Crabs
Linces vs. Suck - Linces are coming off a huge win against Creed that really pushed them to the front of the pack in the East, as well as the league. They put up some big points on Creeds suspect defense in a big win. Suck is a good team, that could be a lot better if only they had access to all their AI. I'm always cheering for you Suck but you may want to get the KY ready, this one may get real ugly.
Pick: Linces
Creed vs. Bay Area - Looks like Creed was finally out scored, told you the defense would bite ya in the butt. They can't sit around pouting to long though as they face a decent Bay Area team. Bay Area so far has played some good teams, but they better do something extra on D to prep for Creeds potent offense.
Pick: Creed
Autobots vs. CPU - A much needed win for Autobots. They had a rough stretch facing some good teams but get a breather before their game with Punishers. They're fighting for a good playoff seed from now on and need to put in the prep time to capitalize.
Pick: Autobots
******* TOP 10 *******
----------------------
1. Easy Eagles(Western) (+2) - Eagles move up to the top spot with the big loss by Creed. They've made easy work of everyone so far with only Camaros giving them a close game. They have some tests on the way though.
2. GLB Headhunters(Western) - GLB stays put even after a big win against Camaros. It was a toss up for the top spot but Easy had a few more real wins which gave them an edge.
3. Spaniard Linces(Eastern) (+4) - Wow, big win that I'm sure surprised most of the league. Linces offense looked very impressive, but need some work on D. Granted Creed does have a powerhouse O but still need to step it up.
4. California Raiders(Western) - A perfect Raiders team so far will face a real test this week as they meet GLB. They have a chance to win but must prepare or its going to get ugly quick.
5. Manhattan Punishers(Eastern) - Still perfect, but still not much to show as far as big wins go. We'll see if they can stay perfect against a Crabs team this week.
6. Marvelous Madmen(Western) - Still with only 1 loss Madmen are just biding their time in their little padded room until playoffs. A very good team that just needs to play a few more top teams.
7. Smyrna Creed(Eastern) (-6) - OH how the mighty fall. Creed is still a powerhouse and can easily move back up to the top with a few wins. Expect them back at the top soon.
8. Tennessee Crabs(Eastern) - Crabs are still moving along nicely with a big test of just how good they are this week. They could really use a win as playoffs near.
9. Bay Area Lil Bastards(Eastern) (+1) - Bay Area really can't lose many more if they don't want to end up with a dreaded 7-8 seed for playoffs facing off with Creed or Linces. Time to step up boys.
10. Chevy Camaros(Western) (-1) - Another respectable loss for Camaros, but all the same another loss. On the plus side they've faced the top of the West. They can easily win out with their stud HB running over and through teams. A little bird told me that their DC has been MIA though. If they can get him back on track watch out for them at the end of the season.
