These two teams are separated by one game and the winner of this one will be in prime position to make a late season run towards the playoffs. The Comeback Kids got off to a great start on TNF with Vincent Jackson grabbing 3 touchdown passes and posting 29 points. Coach Daniel Campbell likes the matchups he has with running backs Michael Turner and Jamaal Charles going into the weekend and will look to them to lead his team to victory. The Pessimists got off to a great start as well behind quarterback Philip Rivers, who torched the San Francisco secondary to the tune of 28 points. Coach BJ Hudson is rolling the dice on the Miami Dolphins' defense as they face the Buffalo Bills. Look for this game to be determined by the flex positions.
Charlie's Redrockets (+38) @ One-Man Wolf Pack
While this game appears to be a mismatch on paper, there is a reason why the games are settled on the field. Charlie's Redrockets' quarterback situation is murky at best, with Aaron Rodgers questionable after suffering his second concussion of the season this past weekend. Coach Matthew Campbell believes that his squad is still in good position, however, as he owns three upper level quarterbacks on his roster. The Wolf Pack will look to clinch a playoff spot with a victory behind the continued resurgence of running back Darren McFadden. Coach Zach Maddux is hopeful that Adrian Peterson can carry the load for a depleted Minnesota offense and lead his team to victory. Look for this game to be determined by the running game.
Young Gun Football (-10) @ The Hail Marys
These two teams with identical records will meet up for their second clash this year. YGF will look to their big play wide receivers to continue to make the difference between winning and losing. Coach Jason Young has been very pleased with the recent play of Jason Witten and Knowshon Moreno and is hopeful that they will maintain their current level of play for the rest of the season. The Hail Marys have been hit with a bombshell late in their preparations, as it was announced that quarterback Donovan McNabb will not start on Sunday. Coach Tara Campbell reportedly got into a heated altercation with Mike Shanahan that later became physical. Rumors are swirling that Albert Haynesworth was involved as well, landing an 'Earthquake Splash' on Shanahan to the delight of Coach Campbell. Look for this game to be decided by the matchup between Ahmad Bradshaw and the Philadelphia defense.
Illegal Alien Babies (-5) @ Riley's Vikings
The Illegal Alien Babies are in the holiday spirit, as they are looking to give Riley's Vikings a Mexican smack-down just before Christmas. The Aliens will continue to rely on a balanced offensive attack, spearheaded by quarterback Josh Freeman and running back LaGarrette Blount. Coach Darrell Campbell is optimistic that Fred Jackson can get back on track and that his twin tight end set will present matchup problems on Sunday. Riley's Vikings are looking to stay in the playoff hunt behind the red-hot play of Tom Brady and the stingy defense of the Cleveland Browns. Coach Adam Warren is excited to return to the island this week, where the rowdy Memphis natives are notoriously loud and obnoxious. Look for the outcome of this game to be determined by the running backs.
Safety Blitz (-7) @ The Hit Squad
Safety Blitz will take their act on the road to visit Montery and the Hit Squad this week. Safety Blitz will look to start the right mix of running backs on Sunday, as they have a stable full of capable mail carriers. Coach Phillip Campbell said that practice has been fierce this week as they are taking a playoff mentality into this week's game. The Hit Squad will look to get back on track after having their five game win streak snapped last week. Coach David Looper is rumored to be letting special guest Sidell Roland call the plays from the sideline on Sunday, but that has yet to be confirmed. Look for this game to be decided by the defenses.
