Seattle Sea Dragons at DC Defenders Preview & Picks
Seattle are backed to cover as a road betting underdog.
The Sea Dragons look to have a talented offense featuring the league’s best receiver in Josh Gordon.
With June Jones calling the plays, this group will possibly be the most exciting offense in the XFL.
His Houston team put up plenty of points in 2020, so we are also backing a rare opening day Over.
- The Over hit in 4 of the 5 XFL games involving June Jones in 2020
- June Jones’ XFL team averaged 31.6 points per game in 2020
- XFL games involving June Jones averaged 53.8 points per game in 2020
- At least one XFL game hit the Over every week in 2020
Head To Head
- DC Defenders lead the all-time series 1-0
- DC Defenders won 31-19 when the teams last met in February 2020
Seattle Sea Dragons Form
Seattle were bottom of their division with a 1-4 record when the 2002 season came to an early end.
The Sea Dragons started the season with a loss to Sunday’s opponents, the DC Defenders, and although they rebounded one week later, they did not win another game.
Jim Haslett has replaced Jim Zorn as head coach and one of his biggest signings has come off the field.
Haslett has hired June Jones as offensive co-ordinator – he was head coach of the Houston Roughnecks that went 5-0 in 2020 and were considered unofficial champions.
Jones will have plenty of offensive weapons at his disposal here, including former NFL standout receiver Josh Gordon.
DC Defenders Form
DC are another team returning from 2020 and they will look to pick right up from where they left off.
The Defenders went 3-2 three years ago, starting the season with a win over Seattle and ending it with a victory against St Louis.
They, like seven other teams, have a new head coach for the 2023 season, with Reggie Barlow taking the reins.
An experienced head coach, he has put together a roster that features one of the stronger QB rooms – Jordan Ta’amu, D’Eriq King and Eric Dungey.
And in Gregg Williams he has a defensive co-ordinator that won the Super Bowl during his impressive, but controversial, run with the New Orleans Saints.
