Breakdown
BLIZZARD
Green Bay went into their season opener with high hopes and they played a terrific first quarter. The problem was that they were blown out in the final three quarters in their 46-point loss to the Frisco Fighters in week 1. Max Meylor and Ja'rome Johnson each had mixed results under center. Meylor had the higher completion percentage, but both quarterbacks only throwing one touchdown and two interceptions apiece. Both are able to utilize their feet in the running game. Terrence Smith rushed for a pair of touchdowns in the game. Steven Newbold appears to be the go-to receiver with his 61 yards and two scores against the Fighters. Jakoby Pappilion is leading the defense, while Shawne Stelle II and Nicholas Yearwood also made impressions on defense. Anthony Hayes scored two tackles for loss.
PIRATES
Massachusetts had a let down year after winning the IFL championship in 2021. The Pirates finished with as the second seed, but were turned back by the Quad City Steamwheelers in the first round; a 39-38 overtime thriller. Alejandro Bennifield had some injury issues last season, but the 2021 United Bowl MVP is coming back for his third IFL season. The receiving group is strong with Thomas Owens, Darren Carrington II and Isaac Zico who make up one of the top receiving trios in all of the IFL. The always-talented Pirates defense will feature a lot of talent. Momodou Mbye, Aarion-Maxey-Penton and Harlan Miller make up a strong defensive backfield which should cause opposing defenses several issues. Trevon Young should anchor the defensive line and Brendon White comes in as a solid linebacker.
