The only worry I have are the miscues on offense I saw on my game (San Diego vs San Antonio) . The offenses are gonna need to be good if these league is gonna work long term. Well, I mean Mike Riley is the coach. You can expect a lot more blunders on offense. And defense. And special teams. And decision making. And player development. You get the point.

tuxedodragon Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Looks like the other game had plenty of offense. At least on Orlando's side lol. Quote Link to comment
irafreak Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Why do all these news outlets keep calling it the philly special? Everyone knows it's Black 41 Flash Reverse. Dumbheads.... 1 Quote Link to comment
suh_fan93 Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 I do like both Memphis and Birmingham's helmets and uni's. Christian Hackenberg sighting. Over/under on picks? Old Iron Mike on the sidelines. A team can only blitz up to 5 players. Tougher on a defense for sure. Probably will allow for the field to have a better chance of being stretched by the offense though. Protects the QB too. Interesting. Quote Link to comment

suh_fan93 Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Haha. That's pretty cool. I think Birmingham got away with one there with that catch. First controversial call of the year! Quote Link to comment

suh_fan93 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Kieron Williams playing SS for Arizona. The pass to Pierson-El hit him in the face mask... Wow. Another Stallion receiver let's a pass hit him in the face mask! Pierson-El. Not looking the best at WR so far. Add a muffed punt to his night. Gheesh. Quote Link to comment

It’s actually way more restrictive than that. 1) Max 5 blitzers 2) Any player on the LOS is designated a blitzer, whether they blitz or not 3) No blitzer from more than 2 yards outside the box, or from more than 5 yards deep 4) No more than 4 blitzers from either side 5) Adjacent LBs may not blitz same side 6) 2 or more LBs aligned guard to guard may not blitz The stated reason for this is the lack of preparation time for QBs and OL. This isn’t a safety rule or pace of play issue or really any other need for this other than needing to get this pop up league started and finished in this narrow window. I’m hopeful that this is a one year thing because there are some good aspects to this league. Quote Link to comment

Doesn't mean it is bad, unpopular, or doomed to fail. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
