Just in case anyone cares and doesn't want to post in a 3-week-old thread.
XFL WEEK 7 SCHEDULE
FRIDAY, March 31
With a four-game winning streak, the Sea Dragons are rolling. Quarterback Ben DiNucci currently leads the XFL in passing yards (1,505) but is having issues protecting the football. Over the past two games, he has thrown four interceptions, the league's most in that span. The Renegades hope Perez will spark their struggling passing game. Through six weeks, Arlington quarterbacks have totaled the second-fewest passing yards (854), the fewest touchdown passes (four) and the second-most interceptions (seven). Perez should be an upgrade, he has more passing yards (906) and touchdown passes (eight) this entire season than the Renegades have as a team.
SAN ANTONIO BRAHMAS (2-4) at VEGAS VIPERS (1-5)
Saturday, 3 p.m. ET | ESPN, ESPN+
The Brahmas are looking to earn consecutive wins for the first time this season after beating the Renegades in Week 6 to keep their playoff hopes alive. A win this week is crucial for San Antonio, which is currently third in the South division. Its offense has been struggling, averaging 14.8 points per game, the second-fewest in the XFL. But this might not be an issue against the Vipers' defense, which allows 27 points per game, the second most. The Vipers have the league's second-worst record and will look to bounce back from a 29-6 loss to the Battlehawks. However, this might be difficult against the Brahmas' defense, which allows an XFL-low 14.6 points per game
On paper, this is one of the biggest mismatches this season, as the undefeated Defenders are a 9.5-point favorite over the winless Guardians, the largest point spread in the XFL this season. The Defenders have the highest-scoring offense (28.5 points per game), while the Guardians allow the most points per game (29.6). Although the Guardians' past three losses have been within one score, they have been outscored 178-100 this season.
ST. LOUIS BATTLEHAWKS (4-2) at HOUSTON ROUGHNECKS (4-2)
Sunday, 2 p.m. ET | ESPN, ESPN+
Battlehawks quarterback AJ McCarron is second in passing yards (1,322) and first in touchdown passes (14). On the other side, Roughnecks quarterback Brandon Silvers is third in passing yards (1,300) and is tied for second in touchdown passes (11). However, the Roughnecks defense has struggled the past two weeks, allowing 58 points after giving up a league-low 55 in the first four weeks. If the Roughnecks can't fix their recent issues, the Battlehawks could light up the scoreboard, as they're second in total touchdowns (17).
