Rochester: Gold Cup Champs

Post by Mike »

I predict ROC to be Gold Cup champs. #1 scoring team. #1 rushing team. WR Mager is shooting up the career receiving list (#11 at only 8 years). HB Shaw has woken up to his potential.

SPR's young QB can't be that lucky. Sure, they have a good defence, but SPR relies on offence. SPR Sack Power!!!! sure, SPR is a sacking behemoth, but ROC has a game plan to overcome that effectively. Witness their handling of TEN in the playoffs, which only gave up 100 more yards than SPR all year. Splitting the season series against sacking power in CHE (DE Forney leads in career...SPR's highest career sacker is DT Purnell at #86 all-time! LB's Leath's injury Q-2 could be huge, as Leath was SPR's #2 tackler and had 14 sacks.

ROC fought hard to win its division, but it is division leader for a reason!
