Xfl Games Online
The DC Defenders and Houston Roughnecks established themselves as the obvious top teams in the XFL during opening weekend, while both the New York Guardians and St. Louis BattleHawks pulled off upset victories in Week 1. The league’s four undefeated teams will face off in Week 2, and in Los Angeles, the Wildcats and Renegades are expecting to field their No. 1 quarterbacks for the first time.
- Reason 3: The XFL will have a 3-point conversion option for teams wanting to extend their score in the wake of a touchdown. Due to this, teams looking for a bigger deficit could in turn impact the point spreads as games will be more likely to end slightly off the key numbers (for example, 3 and 7).
- While the game will be played very similarly, the XFL does have rule changes that are important for bettors to be aware of. Some of the major changes include: Running clock – This will have a major effect on the over/under totals. No fair catches – Five yards of distance must be given to the returner.
Here’s a full rundown of Week 2 in the XFL. All betting information via BetMGM.
Currently, the XFL will not be playing its regular-season games. However, all players will be paid their base pay and benefits for the 2020 regular season. All XFL ticket holders will be issued refunds or credit toward future games. The XFL is committed to playing a full season in 2021 and future years.

The XFL canceled its regular season Thursday amid the spread of the coronavirus.
The move followed similar cancellations and postponements by the NBA, NHL, NCAA, MLS and Major League Baseball, among others.
In its first season since its aborted debut in 2001, the XFL completed half of its scheduled 10-week season. It had been slated to conclude April 12 before two weeks of postseason play. There was no immediate word Thursday about a potential attempt to conduct playoffs.
The XFL has given its players approval to sign with NFL teams any time after they pass exit physicals Friday, sources told ESPN. Originally, XFL contracts said players could not sign with NFL teams until after the XFL playoffs.
Despite the cancellation, the league said all players will be paid their base pay and benefits for the regular season, while ticket holders will receive refunds or credit toward future games.
'The XFL is committed to playing a full season in 2021 and future years,' the league said in a statement.
Games drew an average attendance of 18,614 fans, garnering the largest crowds in St. Louis (28,541) and Seattle (25,616), while New York (14,875) and Los Angeles (13,124) found more difficulty attracting fans.
Overall, ABC and ESPN networks averaged 2,084,000 viewers per game in Weeks 1-4. Fox networks have averaged 2,019,000 per game. According to the league, all 10 of its broadcast games during that period ranked among television's top 10 shows that week, as did four of the six on cable.
The XFL is owned by Vince McMahon, who also runs the WWE. The wrestling company announced earlier Thursday that it would 'remain committed' to holding WrestleMania 36 on April 5 at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida.
The XFL did not mention the coronavirus in its statement or cite a specific reason for canceling the season on Thursday.
