DALLAS VS. ORLANDO GAME NOTES
Orlando QB JAY GRUDEN comes in as the AFL's top-rated signal caller (126.5) and Week 2's Offensive Player of the Week. The Predators' offense is clicking with weapons like WR/LB CORY FLEMING and OS TRAVIS MCGRIFF (combined for 29 receptions, 417 yards and 11 TDs in two games) playing a large role. Dallas Head Coach JOE AVEZZANO has the Desperados tied for the lead in the Central Division. QB JIM KUBIAK has a potent combo of his own in sophomore receivers DIALLEO BURKS and ANDY MCCULLOUGH (24 receptions, 321 yards and six TDs combined.) The AFL's sack leader, Dallas' TOM BRIGGS (four sacks), will have his sights set on disrupting Gruden's timing in the Jungle.
