10 Week Review: Berlin Bärin
Berlin Bärin (3-7) Berlin have just not been very good. A bottom third offense and the worst run defense in the league. That last is confusing, as neither the defensive line nor the linebackers seem to be particularly underperforming. #Bottom Line…

Lomé Dzidudu (3-7) After a 5 game losing streak, a 2-1 record has some minor causes for optimism in West Africa. But this is a team that lost its leader and has never really recovered. Despite that, the offense is fine:…
