This was another great week 7 game. Chicago Tigers and rookie Quarterback Cai Cash came into this game without an RFL win on the season. Going up against a 6-0 Sacramento team had some fans doubting they would be able to stand a chance. But Cash was able to start the game 18/18 with 2 touchdown passes. Chicago scored on all 3 of their first 3 drives. Getting 17 points before going into halftime. Cash’s first incompletion was an interception at the start of the second half but he was able to shake it off and get another touchdown pass in the game. The run game was not very effective but that didn’t stop the offense from having a good day. They also only had to punt the ball 1 time. So they got points on all but 2 drives in the game. The defense did give up a bunch of yards through the air but the rush defense was spectacular, only allowing 41 yards throughout the entire game. Also while they gave up 24 points, they only allowed one score in each quarter making it difficult for the Condors to get momentum off of a big scoring quarter.
The Condors were coming into this game off a win against the Salt Lake City Elks and favored to win by more than a touchdown. Chase McCoy had a good game with 245 passing yards and 2 touchdowns but the team as a whole was not able to get it done on critical downs. Going 3 for 9 on third-down conversions is going to make it difficult to win games. The run game was shut down all night which make things more predictable on those key downs as to what the offense was going to do. At the start of the second half, cornerback Spencer Garland made an interception, and then the offense scored a couple of plays later, but couldn't stop the Tigers from driving down the field to take the lead right back. While the offense struggled on third down, it was the same on the other side of the ball as the defense wasn't able to get off the field. Failing to get a stop on 14 out of 19 third downs and only forcing 1 punt all game.
Now that the Condors have finally lost (6-1), they will be going up against a struggling Brooklyn Barons (2-5) team who also lost today.
The Tigers (3-4) are now 1 game below .500 on the season and will have to face the San Diego Crusaders (4-3) who won against the Barons today.
