BREAKDOWN
As has been said in previous 2023 previews, it is worth mentioning again: Arizona is in unfamiliar territory in the standings with a sub-.500 mark midway through the season. However, the Rattlers have an advantageous schedule over their final eight game in which six of those are at home; including their last three and four of their last five. Playing in front of their home crowd could be just what the Rattlers need to put themselves back into the playoff race. After missing several weeks to injury, Drew Powell returned at quarterback last week. They are scoring 49.6 points per game (third in IFL) and allowing 48.9 (10th).
