View from the enemy: N/A
Tulsa is coming off the best win of the season taking down Chicago in impressive fashion last Saturday. Talons continue to evolve into one of the better Defenses in the league (5th overall in the past 5 games, see "Last Five Games" stats here).
New Orleans coming in: The VooDoo played last Saturday upsetting the Kansas City Command behind a defense that had two pick-6s.
THE MATCHUP
Last week, the Offense behind QBMatt Bassuener gave up three turnovers, which cannot happen again. Troy McBroom continues to be one of the most dominant WRs in the league and new addition JJ Payne adds a much needed traditional rushing attack. If the offense can continue to click then they should be able to put up good numbers on the board.
On Defense, the entire defense seems to bring the pain. Last week the Talons defense forced several fumbles and came up with six turnovers. The pass rush gets a much needed break this week against a VooDoo line that has had trouble protecting the quarterback. There is still one unknown at the moment, however, as VooDoo coach Stingley has yet to name a starting QB for tonight.
Kickoff at 7:00 CT.
