The Chicago Rush lost 53-47 in the City of brotherly love to
expansion Philadelphia Soul, who were playing in front of their
second sell out of the season. Although he had a lot of passing
yards (for him) Philyaw threw only one TD pass, although the Rush
did tie thier team record for rushing TD's with 6, which was set
just last week.

The Rush have to weeks to prepare for what could be an eventful
game on the 21st against the Predators. Bob McMillen only needs 18
yards to pass the 1,000 yard mark for his career and Lindsay
Fleshman will move into 2nd, past Joe Douglass(116), in team history
for career catches if he can get 3 receptions, and if he throws 4
TD's without any picks, Philyaw will be the first Rush QB to have a
stretch of at least 20 TDs without an interception.
