Week 7 Anticipated Matchups

GAME OFT THE WEEK
ShowMeYourTDs VS The Real McCoy
     A game of the week by default headlines this weeks most anticipated matchups. It is the only matchup featuring two teams at or above .500. Unfortunately, this matchup is stricken by bye weeks and injuries. Each team has at least 3 to 4 starters out due to injury or bye week blues. McCoy will look to get production out of his RB's this week with both Mathews and Murray out. TDs is trying to bounce back after a humbling defeat a week ago. This matchup is going to be a dog fight. Look for the victor to scratch their way to a victory. I wouldn't expect a shootout but the score will be close. This is the game of the week.

Beaus N Hoes VS El Pollo Loco
     Even though this is a matchup of two (2-4) teams, it is the 2nd most anticipated game of the week for a few reasons. The first reasoning being that the winner of this matchup will be (3-4) and still in the playoff hunt, while the loser will have a high hill to climb at (2-5). Also, this matchup features teams who seem to be evenly matched, making for some fireworks on sunday. Both these teams are desperate. The winner remains relevant, while the loser tries to climb their way back into the playoff conversation.

Perpetual Dynasty VS. La Flama Blanca
     Reading between the lines will help people see why this matchup should be anticipated. PD is coming off of 4 straight victories, while Flama has scored at least 120 points in each of his last 3 games, unluckily losing 2 of them. Flama needs his team to continue to develop. Having a healthy Forte and Nicks will help. PD is looking to remain hot and try to beat Flama before he catches his stride. This matchup will be closer than the experts think.

Gothams Reckoning VS Weeden and Weep
     A close encounter between these two foes in their first matchup did not help it move up the anticipation boards. Here are the facts. Gotham leads the league in points scored, and has the easiest strength of schedule by a land side. Those two facts do not raise anticipation. For Weeden to have a chance he must hit Gotham on a down week while Weeden's players perform. Do not count Weeden out completely, because anything is possible if Aaron Rodgers explodes for 40.

Tesus Crusades VS Brax To Da Max
     This will be a close game. Both teams put up points. But neither team showed up for rivalry week, both on the boards and in their matchup. Anticipation is minimal.
