Kicking off Week 13 on Saturday afternoon, the Green Bay Blizzard won their fifth straight game, as Green Bay's defense held the Pirates to just 33 points. As one of the top defensive units in the IFL, defensive back Ravarius Rivers was spectacular. Rivers ended the game with 12 tackles (10 solo, 2 assisted), two interceptions, and a blocked field goal. Against Massachusetts, Ravarius Rivers' performance played a significant part in the Blizzard continuing their winning streak, earning him Week 13 Defensive Player of the Week.

In a Week 13 matchup that came down to the wire, kicker Andrew Mevis put the final points on the board with five seconds left, nailing a 34-yard field goal to give the Blizzard their fifth win in a row. Green Bay scored 36 points against the Pirates, and Andrew Mevis was responsible for 12 of them. Along with being a significant contributor to points in a low-scoring game, Mevis put the game-winning field goal through the uprights, earning him Week 13 Special Teams Player of the Week.
