Head-to-Head – Birmingham vs New Orleans

The Stallions earned their 27-13 victory over the Panthers last week with a pair of touchdown drives in the fourth quarter, icing what’d been a close game to that point. Quarterback Alex McGough was highly efficient, completing 19 of 24 passes for a pair of touchdowns without a turnover.

While he only gained 133 yards passing, McGough added 82 yards and another touchdown on 11 rushing attempts – complementing a 100-yard performance on the ground from C.J. Marable. The Stallions have scored no fewer than 20 points in a game this season, and McGough leads the league with 12 passing touchdowns.

The Breakers have been even more offensively dominant this season but have faded immensely over their past two games – scoring only 10 points in each, both losses. Their 10-16 loss to the Philadelphia Stars last week came in spite of the Stars’ failure to score an offensive touchdown against them.

McLeod Bethel-Thompson still leads the league in passing yards but posted only 190 against the Stars while throwing a pair of interceptions. Bethel-Thompson has thrown only five interceptions through six games this season, but four of them have come in the last two weeks.

Still, the Breakers are four weeks removed from racking up 45 points in their last matchup against the Stallions – which they won 45-31. If the Breakers can turn things around, there’s reason to believe it could happen against a familiar opponent.

Expert Predictions

Birmingham enters the week as a slight favorite, but they haven’t strung together consecutive wins since the opening weeks of the season. New Orleans won their last matchup against the Stallions with a 45-point offensive firework display, but have scored only 40 points over their three games since.

While the earlier matchup between the Stallions and Breakers would’ve eclipsed the 45.5 total set for this game by a large margin, five of the six games played by either team since would’ve fallen short. It’s a bold total that will draw strong opinions from analysts on both sides, and merits watching as kickoff gets closer.
