Week 5 Discussion

[JesterBlaze]

Little Rock is a great team that is somehow struggling over the past 1 1/2 seasons. Hopefully we can get a victory. A win against LRK, who LAW lost to last week, will come in handy for playoff tiebreakers. I know it's a little early to be talking about it, but every game counts

If lose any ground on you today it's gonna make it very tough for me to get into the post-season. : (

it will be interesting to see how your team does with a new starting QB.

let's rock and roll

Hopefully we can sell out a game!!!1

yeah, realistically a QB can't sign with a pro-team one day and start a game the next. We'll see how FOF treats the situation today.

lol @ Rockwell

I am not going to complain about this game. I went for a middle of the road defensive game plan and we got burned all day long. But, the offense stepped up and played well.

This game makes up the loss we gave up to LRK this year as far as games we should have won and games we should have lost. I'll take the trade off though as this game will be key for tiebreakers later in the year I am sure.

Bahhh, lose a close one today. Running out of defensive players to field. Already short 2 starting linebackers this week my starting LDE is lost for the season. Madison had a good game plan and won a close one when we missed a 43 yard field goal in the final 2 minutes. Ohhh well, it's early, not panic time yet but 2 loses already is going to make for a tough road with Pitt comming to the house of pain next week. This is almost a "must win" and should be a good show.

[Matt]

That didn't work.

I'm getting slaughtered this year with injuries. This loss hurts in more ways than one. Some weird stuff happened in this one. The play that lost this one for me was the blocked punt recovered on my own 9 right at the end of the first half. LRK was able to kick a FG with no time left.

Offense: Punt Formation.
   4-03-NWK25 (00:14)   NWK 16 Gibson punted and it was blocked by LRK 71 Bridges.
   NWK 23 Crespo recovered the ball at the NWK09.
   
   Possession to Little Rock.
   
   Offense: Field Goal Formation.
   1-09-NWK09 (00:05)   LRK 5 Goodwin attempted a 26 yard field goal and succeeded.

Boston nearly ties Houston, Boston should have won that game...

Hartford and Norfolk follow the same script in route to their wins.

West Virginia suffers a tough loss, Louisiana wins their first game.

Rockwell silences the doubters with 5 TD passes.

Wild game in Newark where both starting QBs go down. LRK escapes with a win.

Madison shuts the door on Oakland as they take a 31-28 win.

Has Devon Taylor been grounded? Only 15 of 35 in loss to Orlando. Connell and Mueller both shine for the Pirates.

Also, Jim Hickman moves to .500 all-time with his win today.

[Matt]

the other crappy thing about this game was that we should've been doubling Kennedy all day long, but for some reason it didn't happen.

I've got to figure out how to deal with all these injuries. So much for our new turf :twisted:

[Warhammer]

I'm glad I'm not playing in Newark this year.

I am goona be especially interested in the attendance at this game. Arguable the biggest home game in Mule history.

Mules attendance set a new high for the Vipers visit and the fans sure did get their money worth.

I am glad that this game is under our belt. You have one nasty and scary team and the Vipers just do not match up all that well with you. Just very happy to come away with a win and no injuries of substance. The studs that you have can simply break players in two.

Stats seemed to be even ... total yards, penalties except for your dominance on time of possession. Barring any catastophic BS, you should find yourself in the playoff mix and you will be a force to be reckoned with.

Good game and much relief from the Viper organizaton.
