The line on the San Antonio Commanders @ Birmingham Iron game is getting tight..it's now Iron -8.5 O/U 35.0..after opening at -7/39.5 ...The lines are sharper than in the earlier weeks.
The Iron and it's powerful defenseare undefeated at 3-0.. The defense is their identity.. last week vs Atlanta Legend they sacked the QB three times and
intercepted three passes. The "D" has only given up 21 points total all season,,, and no team has scored more than 12 points against them.
On offense ,,,QB Luis Perez has yet to throw a touchdown pass in 102
attempts with only one int for the season..Running back Trent
Richardson is a freight train inside the 5 yard line ..last week against
The Legend scoring three yardage short TD's (6 for the season).. The
Irons point differential is 2nd only to the Orlando Apollos..
The San Antonio Commanders
are averaging a little better than 18 points per game,but have lost two
game in a row and are at (1-2) and need to get on track
quickly..although the defense has played good at times racking up 13
sacks and four interceptions this season.. They still allowed 28 unanswered points by San Diego last week as they fell
to the San Diego Fleet 31-11..
At San Diego in week #3 QB Logan Woodside was sacked 5 x's and had two interceptions..... He was replaced
late in the game by Marquise Williams ....Although,Woodside has not been very impressive the season..he is still expected to be the starter this week..
It is now a very tight line,, however The Iron at home should prevail..
In a note on irony....In,Woodside's senior year as QB of the Toledo Rockets ..he was voted "Ironman of the Game" for his performance in the Rockets'
27-17 victory against Northern Illinois..it was presented by Iron
Workers Union No. 55....

Besides,, the Iron's defense there is another reason for the Irons unbeaten success it's in their special teams play ..
Iron punter Colton Schmidt was named The Alliance of American Football’s
Special Teams Player of the Week in Tuesday for his performance in
Birmingham's 28-12 win over the Atlanta Legends
Schmidt punted five times for an average of 49.2 yards (45.0 net). He
booted a long punt of 57 yards and placed three
of his five punts inside the 20...He
was instrumental in the field-position battle against the Legends,
particularly when the game was close in the first half. (Alliance
report )
Making opposing teams have to drive the whole field when
they get the ball and than having their "Iron Curtain" slam on the brakes is the main reason the Birmingham Iron are 3-0...
Another kicker and special teams player.. Birmingham Iron kicker Nick Novak was named the first AAF Special Teams Player of the Week..in week #1.
Nick Novak
also played a big role for his squad. The former Houston Texans kicker knocked
down four field goals, including a 47-yarder, in the Iron’s 26-0 win
over the Memphis Express. (Alliance report)

SarasotaSlim thx for the info buddy.....found some more preview info for today hope you dont mind adding it here.....
On Sunday at 4pm on CBS Sports Network, the San Antonio Commanders (1-2) play at the Birmingham Iron (3-0). The Commanders have a wily one in QB Logan Woodside, who is 50/98 (51%) for 629 yards, 2 TDs and 5 INTs through 3 games. RB Kenneth Farrow II leads the backfield with 36 carries for 138 yards and 2 TDs. The real jewel of San Antonio is WR Mekale McKay, who has 11 catches for 207 yards and a TD. Flatly, the Iron are just a better team, with QB Luis Perezhammering it out on offense. He’s 60/102 (58.8%) for 596 and an INT. Everyone’s favorite blind rhinoceros, RB Trent Richardson, leads the backfield with 59 carries for 145 yards and 6 TDs. WR Quinton Patton has 11 catches for 209 yards. I still find it amazing that a team that feeds T-Rich 15+ touches a game is undefeated, but I think the Iron get it done on Sunday.
Sunday night at 8pm on NFL Network, the Atlanta Legends (0-3) play at the Arizona Hotshots (2-1). The Legends have QB Matt Simms at the helm, and he’s 60/101 (59.4%) for 614 yards, 2 TDs and 6 INTs. I would like to see former Georgia QB Aaron Murray given an opportunity instead. As a result of Simms’ 6 turnovers through 3 games, the rest of the offense suffers. Outside of RB Lawrence Pittman (17 carries for 72 yards) and WR Seantavius Jones (10 catches for 138 yards), Atlanta has been anything but legendary. The Hotshots, however, are led by QB John Wolford. Through 3 games, he’s 46/73 (63%) for 596 yards, 7 TDs and 3 INTs. The Arizona backfield is paced by the likes of RB Jhurell Pressley, and he has 40 carries for 155 yards. WR Rashad Ross is a without a doubt a Hotshot, as he has 15 catches for 221 yards and 4 TDs, which leads the league. I think Arizona gets back on track Sunday.
