Next Week Preview

Havoc
Havoc (3-5) face Enforcers (4-4) in a Week 9 showdown between teams separated by just a game in the standings. Each side has players on bye next week, as Tee Higgins, Kareem Hunt, and Jake Elliott are off for Havoc and Darrell Henderson Jr. and Tyler Higbee are out for Enforcers. When it comes to recent scoring output, these two teams have posted similar results lately. Havoc have scored 113.03 points per game over the last three weeks, while Enforcers have averaged 114.2 per contest over that same span.
Team Tadlock
Things get no simpler for 12th-place Team Tadlock, considering they next get to face off against first-place Blue Falcons next week. Team Tadlock will certainly miss the contributions of Carson Wentz, who has a bye in Week 9. Blue Falcons will be without Giovani Bernard and Josh Reynolds.
