These two teams enter this in a battle for first place in the Lightning Division. The Hit Squad is looking for Michael 'The Dog Catcher' Vick and the San Francisco defense to put up big numbers on Sunday. Coach David Looper is hopeful that Arian Foster can live up to expectations in a tough matchup against the Titans' defense. The One-Man Wolf Pack is back on the winning track after last weeks victory and will look to continue their winning ways at home. Coach Zach Maddux is hopeful that running back Adrian Peterson can get back on track in Minnesota and overcome a shaky performance from LT this past Thursday. Look for this game to be decided by Arian Foster and Ray Rice and their ability to run the football against tough defenses on Sunday.
Young Gun Football (-10) @ The Pessimists
Both teams enter this week riding losing streaks, as YGF has lost four in a row and The Pessimists have lost three straight. YGF is looking for their big playmakers at wide receiver to get into the flow of the game early and often, as Andre Johnson and DeSean Jackson are the spark plugs for this offense. Coach Jason Young remains adamant that Ahmad Bradshaw is not going to see a reduction in touches in New York, but rumors have been swirling that Bradshaw is currently in the dog house. The Pessimists will look to right their ship behind Chris Johnson and newly signed running back Carnell Williams, who is now playing for his fourth team this season. Coach BJ Hudson is rolling the dice on a shootout on SNF and that his quarterback, Philip Rivers, will have a huge night attempting to match up with the frantic paced Colts offense. Look for this game to be decided by the flex spot, as inconsistent performers Knowshon Moreno and Carnell Williams will look to give their team the edge.
The Hail Marys (-21) @ Charlie's Redrockets
The Hail Marys will take their leage record five game winning streak on the road as they look to maintain their hold on first place in the BHFFC. Coach Tara Campbell is looking to Peyton Hillis and Maurice Jones-Drew to continue to set a physical tone for her team, as the two have been dominant in recent weeks. Charlie's Redrockets got off to a great start on Thursday, as fill-in running back Maurice Morris and the Jets' defense put up 40 points combined. Coach Matthew Campbell is hoping to make a playoff push behind Aaron Rodgers and is optimistic that Pro-Bowl tight end Antonio Gates will be able to suit up on SNF. Look for this game to be determined by the six running backs involved.
Illegal Alien Babies (+39) @ Riley's Vikings
This game is off to a frantic scoring pace, as the two teams combined to score 67 points so far on Thursday alone. The Illegal Alien Babies willl look to recover from a tough loss last week behind Sam Bradford and Jacob Tamme, who both have favorable matchups this week. Coach Darrell Campbell is concerned, however, about the matchups of running backs Fred Jackson and LaGarrette Blount, who face the Steelers and Ravens respectively. Riley's Vikings will look to stay in the playoff picture behind the leadership of Tom Brady, who posted 37 points in Thursday's victory over the Lions. Coach Adam Warren is depending on running back Frank Gore to bounce back this week against an atrocious Arizona defense. Look for this game to be decided by which teams' running backs score more touchdowns.
Safety Blitz (+10) @ The Comeback Kids
Safety Blitz is hopeful that Matt Ryan and Roddy White can continue to be productive against a stiff Green Bay secondary. Coach Phillip Campbell is depending on his three-headed monster at running back to continue to lead his football team to victories. The Comeback Kids are attempting to climb back into the playoff picture following last week's victory. Coach Daniel Campbell is plugging wide receiver Vincent Jackson into his starting lineup in an attempt to jumpstart his offense. Look for this game to come down to a battle of the defenses.
Looking Fine
Coach BJ Hudson of The Pessimists is known for his fancy suits that he wears on the sidelines, a product of working for his owner Uncle Bob. While Coach Hudson enjoys 'looking fine,' he received a fine that he wasn't so fond of earlier this week, as running back Ryan Matthews was scratch on MNF. Coach Hudson received the third fine of the year, joining Coaches Phillip Campbell and Jason Young.
Betting Lines
The league commissioner would like to announce that betting lines have been included in this week's preview based on the Yahoo projections. While the lines are official, it remains illegal to gamble on BHFFC games, per the Pete Rose Rule. Rumors around the league office are that the betting lines have been added to encourage Coach Zach Maddux to become more involved with the league's publicity avenues.
