The Georgia Force enter their contest against the Kansas City Brigade looking to improve to 3-3 before their bye week. Georgia will host Kansas City for the first time since 2006 when they defeated the Brigade 51-19. The Force own a 2-0 series edge over Kansas City after the two teams were both in the Southern Division in 2006. The Brigade were relocated to the Central Division after the New Orleans VooDoo made their return to the AFL in 2007.

Georgia is coming off their second win of the season after defeating the Utah Blaze 70-49 in Week 5. The 70-point performance marked a season-high for the Force for points scored. Georgia was led by QB Chris Greisen who threw a season-high eight touchdown passes while completing 21 of 32 passes for 248 yards. Rookie WR Tiger Jones led all Force receivers with nine catches for 131 yards and five touchdowns in his AFL debut. His five touchdown grabs are the most by any player in his first AFL game since 2004. Greisen currently ranks second in the league in touchdown passes (29) and yards (1,559) in addition to completing 125 of 200 passes through the first five weeks of the season. First year starter, WR Carl Morris, leads the Force receiving corps with 39 receptions for 393 yards and eight touchdowns this season. The Force defense is led by NT Ernest Allen and his 13.5 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss, two sacks and one pass defensed. Allen’s sack of Blaze QB Joe Germaine last week was his 40th of his career and moved him into sixth place on the AFL’s all-time list.

Kansas City enters the contest 0-4 on the year, after suffering a close loss at the hands of the defending ArenaBowl Champion San Jose SaberCats in Week 5. The Brigade are led by reining Co-Rookie of the Year WR Charles Frederick. Frederick has tallied 278 receiving yards on 27 grabs with five touchdowns this season. DB Monty Montgomery leads the defense with a team-high 27 tackles.
