Week #1 discussion

You can't stop Patrick 'P-Diddy' Williams. You can only try to contain him.

[Cringer]

The nearly 40 year old (will be 40 by seasons end) Johnnie Loving, with a chance to start once again in Cleveland, passes for 300 yards and 3 TDs to get Cleveland a win.

[SteveBsFan]

Middle 2nd quarter to early 3rd is when they happened I believe. Everytime you dropped back to pass i was praying he would get #4. :lol:

Every time I had a flag on 1st down, I was dreading it as well because I knew there was a bigger chance for a pass haha.

What the hell? Why is my Left Tackle running the ball?

&Offense: Five WR Spread Formation, Strength = Left.
&Defense: 34 Alignment, Man-to-Man (Bump & Run), Run - Aggressive.
3-09-WVA02 (11:09) WVA 70 Lambert ran inside the left tackle for 0 yards.
Tackled by NFK 55 Sundberg, assisted by NFK 97 Deitz.

What the hell? Why is my Left Tackle running the ball?

Duh.. because he has good power inside.

No, there's a bug which causes linemen to do funky things sometimes, mostly catching balls from what I've seen. Also seems like it happens the most often in 5 WR sets.

[Warhammer]

Cleveland had a 300yd passer!!!!!!

I'm probably the only team in IFL history without one now :lol:

No, our standard is the 250 yard passer! We've only had two!

Hartford's week one in review:

Our defense gave up a lot of yards. However, we forced a few turnovers, and it appears that at least 197 yards that we gave up were after we had a 27-10 lead. Our 1st round pick Courtney Cleeland deserves some DPotW honors after that game. Especially since no other defensive players really had a stand out game.

On offense, we played better than expected. Jamison got his 100 yards, averaging 4 YPC putting the ball in the end zone twice. The offensive line played well both opening holes, and protecting Hickman. Our receivers played great, only dropping one pass. TE Sala was his normal steady self catching 9 out of 12 balls thrown in his direction for 94 yards, I'll take that out of my TE every week!

Hickman played extremely well. No turnovers, completed 60.6% of his passes for 214 yards and was not sacked. He had a crucial 10 yard run on a draw play on 3-8 from the Boston 13 that set up Jamison's first TD run. The key stat of the game was Hickman was 8 for 8 for 123 yards on passes from 9-18 yards downfield!

If our offense can keep this up, I think we'll surprise a few people this year. That said, each time we have a game like this, we follow it up with a few stinkers.

[Warhammer]

Scratch Cleeland getting DPotW, just saw Maldonado had 3 sacks!

Where's the love for my CB Seifert though, 12 tackles and 3 assists! :shock:

[roadrash]

Something has me really worried. . .

32 Harvin 14 65 4.6 9 1
42 Beamer 12 56 4.6 14 0

Did Beamer get hurt?

I dont' even see him in the fourth quarter play-by-play

[sovstar]

Beamer's not hurt.

[roadrash]

Anyone have any major injuries this week?

Iowa City lost his stud LT for half the year and a LB for several weeks.

That would explain this:

73 Whatley 0 2

Was it MLB Day that is out as well?

You can't stop Patrick 'P-Diddy' Williams. You can only try to contain him.

That is unbelievable! :shock: I still think he's a plug. :P

[roadrash]

Beamer's not hurt.

Then I am confused why Tardif got all those carries. . . he is only supposed to get about 3-5 carries a game. . .

I can't believe I only got 40 plays off the entire game. . . Montreal just hogged the ball all game.

3 5:55 8:33 OWN 20 16 80 Touchdown
4 8:54 6:57 OWN 23 13 51 Missed FG

An entire quarter for two possesions .. that is insane. . is there a play clock in game?

[sovstar]

Beamer's not hurt.

Then I am confused why Tardif got all those carries

Tardif? Is that a soccer team?

[roadrash]

I just finished the gamelog. . and I can't stop laughing .. then crying. . then laughing again. . .read this and you will do one of the other. . .remember that my starting LT Price went down with an injury and a rookie Whatley has taken his place at LT. . .This is the Snipe Hunter's last drive: (My comments in bold)
