Next Week Preview

Week 6 features a couple of teams moving in opposite directions, as Slobberknocker (2-3) enter Week 6 on a two-game winning streak, while their opposition (Bourbon Meyers, 1-4), come in as losers of four straight. Each side will have multiple bye weeks to worry about in Week 6, as Josh Jacobs, Hunter Renfrow, and Jared Goff are out for Bourbon Meyers and Daniel Carlson and Brandin Cooks will get the week off for Slobberknocker. Over the past two weeks, Slobberknocker have put up 85.94 points per game, while Bourbon Meyers have averaged 95.49 per contest.
The Fighting Clara’s
The outlook doesn't exactly get much brighter for seventh-place The Fighting Clara’s, considering they now get to go toe-to-toe against the league-leading Oilers in Week 6. The Fighting Clara’s might need to shuffle the deck some with the Tennessee Titans defense, T.J. Hockenson, and D'Andre Swift out on bye next week. Oilers will be without Ryan Tannehill.
