Week 9 Preview

GAME OF THE WEEK

Murrysville Drow (4-4) @ Malleus Maleficarum (6-2)

Here come the fireworks. Looking at the rosters for both teams, I think we’re are going to see the offensive for both teams post big numbers. You have to like Rodgers and I do think that Brady will be looking to rebound after last week. I actually even like Malleus to post some decent WR numbers this week. I think this will come down to D. Haydn has the best, while Doug has one of the worst.

Prediction:  Malleus at home.

Malleus 38– Drow 31

Mighty Midtowne Mimes (3-5) @ Bill's Team (4-4)

Last week, the Mimes put out a monster defensive effort only to be negated by a huge offensive day from Flannel, while Bill chalked up 2 in a row. While I don’t see another defensive effort like that coming from the Mimes, with Cam on a bye for Bill I think it will be enough. I think Bill has a tough offensive outing coming this week while the Mimes will do more than enough, led by Philip Rivers.

Prediction:  Mimes blanks the Bill at home.

Mimes 18– Bill 0

 

Iron City Lagers (5-3) @ Rednecks (5-2-1)

The Lagers rolled last week, but as usual, the Rednecks get lucky and play them when they have to sit the high scoring Stafford to Johnson combo. I think this will be a close game, but I actually like my team to start posting some decent offensive numbers, which will be needed against what I see is a good defensive effort coming from the Lagers.

Prediction:  Rednecks get lucky again.

Rednecks 26– Lagers 21

 

Capo Di Tutti Capi (4-4) @ Export Flannel (3-4-1)

Capo has a tough draw this week playing a Flannel team that scored in bunches last week. Looking at Flannel’s matchup, I think more of the same is in store. Conversely, Capo has a tough RB matchup this week and the WR matchups are not that great either. So most likely, since I am just not seeing it this week for Capo, this will be the week he wins. But I still don’t see it.

Prediction:  I think Manning and McCoy have another big week.

Flannel 36– Capo 20

 

Roger's Ramjets (5-3) @ N.Y. Hamburglers (1-7)

The Ramjets squeaked by last week while the Hamburglers showed a lot of improvement, even in the loss. Looking at the matchup, I know Roger is leading the league in offensive, but I just have a feeling that this week he isn’t going to see the production he is used to. For the Ham team, I think this week they go off offensively, and even Ryan will post some good number for them.  It won’t be a cake walk, but I still like the ‘Burglers to get it done.

Prediction:  Upset special of the week!

Hamburglers 27– Ramjets 22

 

Fightin' Bitin' Beavers (5-3) @ Old No. 7 (2-6)

The surging Beavers take on a floundering No. 7 team just looking to avoid hosting the Toilet Bowl. I do like some of Jason’s matchups this week, and he does draw a Beavers team that has to sit All-Day, but I have a feeling Fitzpatrick is about to have a bad game. While I am not crazy about Alex Smith either, I do like most of the matchups for the Beavers, despite Sproles being in some sort of time share in Orleans. I think this game will be closer than it appears, but FBB takes it.

Prediction:  Beavers on the road.

Beavers 26 – O7 14
