As we reach the midway point of the AFL season the action is intensifying each week. The playoff picture is beginning to take serious form with all fourteen teams still in contention for a berth.
Spokane Shock 65, New Orleans VooDoo 54
The Shock hosted the VooDoo as the lone Friday night game of the week as both teams were in hope of snapping losing streaks in Deaf Valley.
Spokane got the opening possession and was fortunate to score the first points of the game. Erik Meyer completed his first two passes to move the ball to mid-field but on third down and two his pass was intercepted by Leslie Majors, who fumbled during his return to give the ball right back to Spokane. Meyer cashed in on the second chance by throwing a nine-yard touchdown to Brandon Thompkins four plays later. Kurt Rocco returned for New Orleans and wasted no time showing why he was missed with a 34-yard strike to Donovan Morgan, who also returned from injury, to trade opening touchdowns. The next three plays saw each quarterback throw their second touchdown pass, but Robert Henderson stopped the trend when he deflected Meyer's pass on fourth down, giving the VooDoo their first stop. Kurt Rocco found Morgan for another deep ball, 39 yards, for their second touchdown connection of the evening to give New Orleans a 21-14 lead to take into the second quarter. The mistakes by the VooDoo defense continued to pile up when what would of been Meyer's second interception was nullified by a defensive holding penalty and Kamar Jorden scored on a three-yard touchdown run to tie the game at 21. Both teams scored touchdowns on their next possessions, but this time it was the Spokane defense that made a stand when Paul Stephens intercepted Rocco on fourth down in the end zone. The Shock ended the half with an eight-play drive that resulted in Taylor Rowan's 28-yard field goal. New Orleans began the third quarter with the ball and had a great chance to erase a four-point deficit, but came up short when Stephens recorded his second interception of the game. It took just two plays for Erik Meyer to find Kamar Jorden for a fourteen-yard score to push the advantage to 38-27 with under twelve minutes left in the period. The lead didn't last for long when two plays later Rocco connected for the fourth time with Donovan Morgan on a 47-yard touchdown and on the first play of the next Spokane drive Leslie Majors sacked Meyer, forcing a fumble that he recovered and returned for a touchdown to give New Orleans a 40-38 lead midway through the third. Just like their counterparts, the lead didn't last long as Terrance Sanders returned the ensuing kick 56 yards for a touchdown. Kurt Rocco picked up right from where he left off by directing an eight-play drive that ended on his nine-yard touchdown pass to Jermaine Richardson to end the quarter. Erik Meyer answered by leading a seven-play drive of his own that resulted in a five-yard score to Brandon Thompkins. Terrance Sanders made his second big play of the quarter when he intercepted Rocco on the next play and returned it fifteen yards for a "pick-six" to put Spokane backup by two scores. Kurt Rocco responded on the next drive with a 33-yard touchdown to Donovan Morgan to keep it close. Erik Meyer got the lead back to twelve by completing consecutive passes to Adron Tennell on the next series for 42 yards and a touchdown. The VooDoo tried to respond, but on the fifth play of the ensuing drive James Ruffin made his second sack as in many plays, third of the game, on Rocco and forced a fumble that allowed Spokane to run out the clock and finally put an end to their three-game losing skid. Taylor Rowan made his debut for Spokane at kicker.

San Antonio Talons 57, Cleveland Gladiators 33
The Talons and Gladiators both suited in in the Quicken Loans Arena looking for a second straight victory; each with an opportunity to gain substantial ground in their respect divisions.
Nick Hill led an opening drive aided by penalties by completing both of his passes, finding D.J. Stephens for a 26-yard score on his second pass. Chris Dieker made his first start of the season for Cleveland and started strong by completing three of his first four passes. On the fifth play of the drive it was first and goal from San Antonio's two-yard line, when Dieker lost eight yards on a scramble and fumbled; Derek Steiner recovered the ball at Cleveland's twelve to keep the possession alive. Chris Dieker quickly made the bizarre play forgotten when he used his legs on the next play and scampered 38 yards for a touchdown run to tie the game at seven. Nick Hill followed by directing an elevan-play, 44-yard drive that he finished with a one-yard touchdown run. Cleveland quickly matched with seven of their own when Dieker connected on a 46-yard bomb to Thyron Lewis on the second play of the second quarter. The teams traded touchdowns for the third straight sequence of possessions; but Chris Dieker was injured on the sixth play of an eight-play drive that Brian Zbydniewski finished with a 13-yard touchdown pass to Thyron Lewis. San Antonio again just needed three plays to score on their fourth straight series; a three-yard catch by D.J. Stephens. In light of the injury to Dieker, Brian Zbydniewski had his chance to win the starting job back. Zbydniewski started good by completing his first two passes, but things quickly turned south when his third pass was intercepted at midfield by Jamar Ransom. Xavier Lee scored on a one-yard touchdown run five plays later to create the first bit of space in the game. Trouble continued for Zbydniewski when on the second play of the ensuing series he was sacked by Joe Sykes and lost a fumble that was recovered by Victor DeGrate. In the final 42 second of the first half each side missed a field goal, keeping the margin at fourteen for the Talons. Cleveland had a chance to cut the deficit in-half at the start of the third quarter, but the nightmare continued as Brian Zbydniewski was called for intentional grounding in the end zone on the first play of series; resulting in a safety for San Antonio. These two points would stand as the points of the third as both quarterbacks struggled; both completed just three of ten passes while throwing two interceptions in the period. Brian Zbydniewski ended the scoring drought with his four-yard touchdown pass to Dominic Goodman on the first play of the fourth to make it a ten-point game. The offensive struggles continued for the Talons when a seven-play drive ended in nothing when Randy Colling sacked Hill on a fourth down at the Gladiator four-yard line. Things got interesting when Zbydniewski found Thyron Lewis on a 31-yard strike to make it 37-33 with nine minutes left in the fourth. Cleveland kicked it deep trusting their defense, which played fantastic in the second half, but Nick Hill finally broke through by tossing a twelve-yard score to Moqut Ruffins with 6:44 left to play. All the good feelings the Glads had of a comeback quickly vanished when Jamar Ransom intercepted Zbydniewski on the next play and returned it for a "pick-six" to put the game away. Ransom had a second "pick-six" on his third interception of the night four plays later to save the Talons after a lackluster second half.

San Jose Sabercats 57, Jacksonville Sharks 36
Saturday night was a night of firsts, the Sabercats made their first trip to Jacksonville while the Sharks ended up with a franchise-long three-game losing streak.
This inagural meeting in Jacksonville got off to a fast start when Fred Williams returned the opening kick 48 yards to set up a ten-yard touchdown by Huey Whittaker on the first play of the game. R.J. Archer was given his first start for the Sharks and completed two passes on the opening drive, including a thirteen-yard score to Jeff Hughley. San Jose answered quickly, starting with a 45-yard catch and run by Fred Williams to setup Russ Michna's three-yard touchdown run. Archer failed to complete a pass on three tries to gain one yard for a first down. After a pair of offensive penalties eliminated touchdowns for the 'Cats on their ensuing possession, Nich Pertuit nailed a 37-yard field goal to push the lead to 16-6. The Sharks responded with an eight-play, 37-yard drive that concluded with Jeron Harvey's seven-yard touchdown catch. San Jose responded with a five-play, 48-yard drive of their own that ended on Huey Whittaker's three-yard run; the extra point was blocked by Jerry Turner and returned by Ay Okpokowuruk for two points. Jeron Harvey snagged his second score of the night three plays later on a 23-yard pass and Marco Capozzoli's extra point tied the score at 22. Russ Michna made sure the Sabercats had the lead at halftime by leading an elevan-play, 48-yard drive that ended on the last play of the half with Whittaker's two-yard touchdown reception. Jacksonville had their chance to tie on the opening possession of the third quarter but failed to when Huey Whittaker intercepted R.J. Archer inside his own ten-yard line. Russ Michna scampered twelve yards into the end zone for his second rushing score to give San Jose a two score lead. The Sharks recovered the ensuing onside kick and with one play were on San Jose's two-yard line, but Jerry Turner fumbled a pitch which Jason Stewart recovered. Michna connected with Fred Williams for a 24-yard score three plays later to push their lead to 43-22 with less than six minutes in the third. The Sharks finally scored their first points of the half when R.J. Archer found Markee White for a three-yard touchdown to begin the fourth, cutting the deficit back to fourteen. San Jose recovered the onside kick and Russ Michna found Williams for a four-yard score to get the lead quickly back to 21. The Sharks' chance at a wild comeback ended when both offenses traded touchdowns one last time and Clevan Thomas intercepted Archer prior to the one-minute warning; San Jose would run out the clock en route to their fourth straight win.

Tampa Bay Storm 62, Pittsburgh Power 34
The Storm traveld to Pittsburgh with the return of their top wide receiver, Joe Hills. Tampa Bay rebounded from an embarrassing road loss in big time fashion, while the Power once again failed to win at home.
Tampa Bay started quickly when Michael Lindsey returned the opening kick to midfield and caught a 25-yard touchdown on Adrian McPherson's first pass of the night. The Power answered with a four-play drive of their own that Steven Sheffield ended with a six-yard run to tie the game at seven. McPherson continued to be in rhythm, completing all five of his passes on the next series which was highlighted by Greg Ellingson's thirteen-yard scoring grab. De'Audra Dix made an interception in his own end zone to turn away Pittsburgh after a nine-play drive. Adrian McPherson continued to slice and dice the Power's secondary and the result was a 32-yard touchdown pass to Michael Lindsey on the third play of a second quarter that featured big play after big play. Kirby Griffin scored on a 20-yard run, Joe Hills caught a 34-yard bomb, and Mike Washington hauled in a 39-yard strike on the ensuing possessions to excite the fans at Consol Energy Center. Despite the high-flying pace of the period, Tampa Bay managed to slow things down with a five-play drive that led to Ellingson's six-yard touchdown catch to make it 35-21. The Storm defense denied the Power two chances at a short yardage situation to force a turnover on downs, but Dominie Pittman's sack of McPherson three plays later kept the halftime margin at two scores. Pittsburgh had a great opportunity to get back in the game by receiving the second half kickoff, but failed miserably when James Harrell intercepted a deep ball intended for Mike Washington and returned it 38 yards for a touchdown, giving Tampa Bay its largest lead of the game. The Tampa Bay secondary continued to have its way when on the seventh play of Pittsburgh's next series Chris Smith jumped in front of a Sheffield pass to make the interception and returned it to midfield. The mistakes added up as Adrian McPherson kept dissecting the Power secondary and found Greg Ellingson for a 19-yard score. Pittsburgh finally got their first points of the second half when Alvin Ray Jackson, he's the starter jack-linebacker, made a beautiful catch over the back boards in the end zone for a three-yard touchdown to complete a ten-play, 49-yard drive. Adrian McPherson completed all three passes and rushed twice for seven yard, including a one-yard score, to conclude the clinic he put on in Pittsburgh. Tampa Bay crusied to a 62-34 victory, using a dominant performance by their secondary and McPherson's efficent night to move into a first-place tie in the south division.

Philadelphia Soul 61, Orlando Predators 51
On CBS Sports Network, The Soul were in search of their first home win while a completly different Orlando team from the earlier meeting entered the Wells Fargo Arena looking for their third straight win.
Orlando received the opening kick and got off to a good start, Aaron Garcia completed his first three passes and Marlon Moye-Moore scored on a one-yard run to conclude an efficent six-play opening drive. Dan Raudabaugh answered by leading a seven-play drive of his own that saw him complete all four of his passes, including a three-yard scoring toss to Larry Brackins. A twelve-yard touchdown catch by Maurice Williams and a forced and recovered fumble by Dominc Jones returned for a touchdown over the course of six plays gave the Preds an early 19-7 advantage. Philadelphia was quick to strike back on the next possession that featured three completions by Dan Raudabaugh to Andrae Thurman and was highlighted by a 23-yard score. The game turned around early in the second quarter when Rayshaun Kizer knocked the ball free from T.T. Toliver's grip and Derrick Ross scored on a one-yard run five plays later to give the Soul their first lead. Each team's next possession lasted eight plays, but produced very opposite outcomes. Orlando's ended with three consecutive incompletions by Aaron Garcia, while Derrick Ross scored on an elevan-yard screen pass to give Philadelphia a 28-19 lead at the break. It looked like the Soul were beginning to runaway with the game when Dan Raudabaugh found Tiger Jones on a 40-yard strike on the third play of the second half to increase the lead to sixteen. Orlando wasn't ready to wave the white flag just yet though and Aaron Garcia led a seven-play, 33-yard drive that ended with his five-yard touchdown pass to Maurice Williams. The Predator defense needed to make a stop, and they did with a huge goal-line stand that featured Derrick Ross getting four staright carries from Orlando's three-yard line. Garcia went deep and hit Maurice Williams for a 48-yard touchdown on the next play to trim the deficit to three with three minutes in the third. Both teams traded onside kick recoveries and quick scores to allow the margin to remain three upon entering the final period. Dan Raudabaugh calmed the home crowd's nerves by completing back-to-back passes to Tiger Jones, the second of those a 38-yard touchdown to begin the quarter. The Predators looked ready to answer until Aaron Garcia's end zone pass was undercut and intercepted by James Romain who returned it 50 yards for a "pick-six" to blow the lead back to sixteen. The Soul defense continued their fourth quarter stamp on the game when Rayshaun Kizer came up with an interception to turn Orlando away on the next series, but once again just when it looked as if Philadelphia was going to runaway with it Dominc Jones forced his second fumble to give Orlando new life. Three plays later, Jason Geathers was the recipient of a three-yard touchdown to bring the difference back to ten; the two-point conversion failed. The Soul recovered the onside kick and Derrick Ross punched in his second rushing score of the night to seal the game and earn the first home victory for Philadelphia this season.

Utah Blaze 43, Iowa Barnstormers 34
The Blaze and Barnstormers entered week nine as two of the hottest teams in the AFL, both in search of much needed victories.
Utah got off to a good start and scored the first points of the night, but in a different way then we are used to seeing. The Blaze opened with a ten-play drive that failed to produce points when all three of Tommy Grady's passes in a goal-to-go situation fell incomplete. Maurice Leggett made it okay when he intercepted J.J. Raternik's third pass of the night and returned it 19 yards for a touchdown. Raternik continued to srtuggle on the next possession, started 0-5, but finally made a couple completions and found Jesse Schmidt for a seven-yard score to tie the game. Iowa took the lead midway through the second quarter when Erick McIntosh picked off Grady in his own end zone and five plays later Marcus Harris caught a sixteen-yard touchdown. The next five plays saw Mario Urrutia haul in a 34-yard touchdown and Darius Reynolds catch a nine-yard score. Utah ended the half with an eight-play drive which resulted in Chase Deadder's one-yard run to make it 21-20 Iowa at the break. The Stormers opened the third quarter with a long six-play drive, but were unable to capitalize when J.J. Raternik got sacked on third-and-eight, setting up a fourth-and-25 at his own three; the snap was botched and allowed Ben Stallings to score on a one-yard run to give the lead back to Utah. It appeared that the previous two plays threw the Iowa offense completly out of sinc when Raternik misfired on his next three passes and got sacked on fourth down by Caesar Rayford for a Blaze safety. It looked like the door was open for Utah to pull away, but the Barnstormer defense shut it when on the third play of the drive John Mohring intercepted Tommy Grady and returned it 38 yards for a touchdown to get the margin back to one. A pair of penalties by the Iowa defense aided Utah's ensuing four-play drive that ended with Mario Urrutia's 32-yard touchdown grab, giving the Blaze a 36-28 lead to take into the fourth quarter. Iowa began the period with the ball and needed just three plays to score what would be their only points of the quarter when J.J. Raternik threw a 24-yard touchdown to Marcus Harris; the two-point conversion failed so Utah held on to a two-point lead. Tommy Grady secured the lead by directing a 13-play, 49-drive that lasted 7:35 and resulted in a seven-yard touchdown catch by Urrutia. Down by nine with under six minutes, Raternik led Iowa on a nine-play, nearly four-minute drive that ended with no points when Maurice Leggett made his second interception of the game on a pass intended for Marcus Harris at the Utah-fourteen to seal the home win for Utah. To show why the west is the best, Utah's 4-4 record has them last in the west division, while Iowa at 4-5 is just a half-game behind the San Antonio, who is 4-4, in the central division.

Arizona Rattlers 56, Chicago Rush 49
The Rush hosted the hottest team in Arena Football when the Rattlers came into town to conclude week nine. Luke Drone made his 2013 debut and return to Chicago.
The Rattlers struck quick on the opening drive as Nick Davila's first pass went to Kerry Reed for a 30-yard touchdown. Luke Drone started slow, but capped a four-play scoring drive with a 30-yard strike to Reggie Gray to match Arizona's opening score. The Rattlers followed with a six-play drive that ended with Davila throwing a fifteen-yard touchdown to Rod Windsor. Rodney Wright made sure the Rush didn't spend too much time trailing as he fielded and returned the ensuing kickoff 57 yards for a touchdown to retie the contest. Arizona battled back and finished a high-scoring first quarter with Jared Perry's eight-yard touchdown reception.With the change of quarters came a change in the game's pace when a seven-play drive by Chicago went to spoils because Virgil Gray made an interception in his end zone. Nick Davila found Trandon Harvey for a 17-yard touchdown two plays later to create the first bit of space on the afternoon. Each team would score a touchdown on their next possession and failed to net any points on their final possessions of the half, resulting in a 35-21 lead for the Rattlers at halftime. Chicago got the ball to begin the third quarter and cut the deficit in half when Luke Drone hit Rodney Wright for a 24-yard touchdown on the third play of the half. Nick Davila got off to a slow start to the half, throwing three incompletions before connecting with Rod Windsor for a 33-yard gain on fourth-and-ten to keep the possession alive. Three plays later Davila went back to Windsor, this time for a 20-yard touchdown to complete a seven-play series. Arizona broke the game open on the next two plays when Rodney Wright fumbled at the Chicago-one and Odie Armstrong punched it in on the next play to extend the lead to 49-28 with six minutes left in the quarter. The Rush kept themselves in the game with a five-play, 45-yard drive that resulted in a redemption ten-yard touchdown catch by Wright. The Rattlers scored their lone points of the fourth quarter on the first snap of the period when Davila threw a 33-yard touchdown to Rod Windsor, getting the lead back to 21. The Rush quickly responded and also scored on their first play of the fourth, a nifty 36-yard touchdown reception by Reggie Gray. The Chicago defense was in desperate need of a stop and trusted their secondary to make it. Nick Davila threw three consecutive incompletions to go with an offensive offside that forced Garrett Lindholm to attempt a 62-yard field goal that was missed; earning the stop for Chicago. The Rush now needed a quick score and got it when Luke Drone fired a 32-yard touchdown to Reggie Gray three plays later to all of a sudden turn it into a seven-point game with 5:53 remaining. The wildest turn of the game had yet to come as Josh Pleasant made a net recovery on the ensuing kickoff to give the ball right back to the Rush. A pair of pass interferences on Arizona gave Chicago an extra set of downs, resulting in a first and goal at the four-yard line. Luke Drone throw back-to-back incompletions and fumbled on a third-down scramble to set up a fourth and goal at midfield. Drone found Reggie Gray for a gain of nineteen in the prevent coverage, but Arkeith Brown made the tackle to secure the lead with 32 seconds left. Nick Davila gained three yards on as many carries to run out the clock and earn the fifth straight win for Arizona.
