Starting Quarterbacks
Jack Plummer will lead the Orlando offense into this important matchup after throwing for 1,472 passing yards with 12 touchdowns and just one interception this season. Plummer has helped Orlando remain one of the stronger teams in the league standings and has consistently protected the football throughout the season. On the other side, Austin Reed enters for Dallas after throwing for a league-leading 1,526 passing yards along with 13 touchdown passes. Reed has generated explosive offensive numbers for the Renegades, although his seven interceptions have also created challenges during Dallas’ recent losing streak.
Orlando Looking to Continue Strong Season
Orlando enters this matchup with a 5-2 record and currently sits near the top of the league standings. The Storm recently won over Houston 24-23 after previously losing to Birmingham 17-20 and St. Louis 17-25. Before those losses, Orlando picked up impressive victories against Birmingham 16-0 and Louisville 29-27. The Storm have remained competitive throughout the season and continue to win close games behind a balanced offense and strong defensive production.
The Storm are averaging 20.7 points per game while allowing only 17.1 points defensively, which is one of the stronger defensive marks among the teams listed. Orlando is averaging 197.4 passing yards and 91.0 rushing yards per game offensively. Defensively, the Storm are allowing 232.3 passing yards and 83.7 rushing yards per contest.

One major strength for Orlando has been defensive consistency. Allowing just 17.1 points per game has helped the Storm stay competitive even during lower-scoring offensive performances. Orlando has also done a strong job limiting opposing rushing attacks while forcing teams to rely heavily on the passing game.
Dallas Hoping to End the Slide
Dallas enters this matchup with a 3-4 record and is currently dealing with a four-game losing streak. The Renegades recently lost to Birmingham 21-17 and also suffered defeats against DC 24-6, Louisville 47-25, and Columbus 28-14. Their most recent victory came against Columbus in a 28-23 win back on April 12. Despite the recent struggles, Dallas has continued to move the football effectively through the air.
The Renegades are averaging 22.4 points per game while allowing 25.0 points defensively. Dallas has generated 218.7 passing yards and 89.0 rushing yards per contest offensively. Defensively, the Renegades are allowing 176.7 passing yards and 94.7 rushing yards per game.
One key issue for Dallas has been defense. While the offense has produced slightly more points than Orlando overall, the Renegades are allowing 25.0 points per game and have surrendered at least 21 points in four straight contests. The recent stretch of losses has also shown inconsistency defensively against both balanced and pass-heavy opponents.
Orlando Storm vs Dallas Renegades Picks and Prediction
Orlando Storm vs Dallas Renegades Pick
- Pick: Orlando Storm +1.5
Orlando enters this game with the stronger overall record and significantly better defensive production. The Storm are allowing only 17.1 points per game while Dallas has struggled defensively by allowing 25.0 points per contest. Orlando has also won three of its last five games, while Dallas enters on a four-game losing streak. The Storm have shown they can win close games on the road, including recent victories against Houston and Louisville. With Orlando playing more consistent football on both sides of the ball, taking the points looks like the stronger option.
Orlando Storm vs Dallas Renegades Total Pick
- Pick: Under 45.5
I am leaning toward the under because Orlando’s defense has consistently kept games under control this season. The Storm are allowing only 17.1 points per game and recently held Birmingham scoreless in a 16-0 victory. Dallas has struggled offensively during its losing streak as well, scoring only 17 points against Birmingham and six against DC in recent games. With Orlando relying on defense and Dallas struggling for consistency, this matchup looks capable of staying below the posted total.
