Week 7 Discussion

[dberner30]

Heroes are at .500 for the first time in i don't know how many seasons. we played that last game with our balls and decided to run against all the holes in the Wichita 3-4 defense than have Collela pass. worked in our favor, the game wasn't as close as the scoreboard says, if our soon to be cut kicker woulda made those 2 FGs the score woulda been 26-17. anyway, a win is a win.

we're not thinking we can stop the Lynx next week, i just want to make it respectable. i think ANC was able to make us look silly all of last season, so i at least want to make Buddaking work for that 5th win.

still, if we can beat ANC we'd be #2 in the division and start making a lot of teams nervous.

you got some big help from a 40 yd pass interference penalty so it was close....you can almost go to the bank betting we lose by 3 or less...FOF still blows chunks...i really love the stupid end of half AI that says run, run, run, run, run, no matter what and then take the FG...no point in trying to score a TD its just halftime....Jim's a moron.

and for those watching closely you may have noticed my lethal weapon LT Crump getting a carry deep in our own territory...explain that one????

What a frustrating game to watch... Little Rock fumbles 3 times and I still can't score a touchdown. I get every chance there is, but I still can't score a touchdown.. but yowser.. 4 hurries, 4 blocked passes and 3 dropped passes.. Virgil sure can't be happy today.. at least he's not throwing the interceptions anymore.

Good game Cringer, though I'm happy I didn't have to pay tickets to see this one

It's a known bug. Can happen in the 5 WR set.

Win at Texas. This one had me nervous. GG Texas.

Random thoughts:

Groth comes back and gets 6 catches for 167 yards. Only to Injure his ribcage and be listed as questionable.

Welcome back from knee surgery Glenn Bess 5 catches for 86 yards and 1 TD.

Tito Ash finally shows up and gets 5 tackles 1 sack 2 blocks and 3 hurries

Running game gets a flat tire. Thornburg gets one more start, then its another new gameplan.

I liked to say I cared about that game but I didnt... :x

Im expecting either Portland, Norfolk or Hartford to falter down the stretch! 8)

Offense has been bland as hell lately gotta go to some things I did in the past. Change it up hopefully Steiner and Richarson can get out of their funk. Good game IWC you still have a stout defense thought I'd be able to pass more though...

Nevermind, just noticed Max Brown is out for 17 weeks. Dammit didnt see that on the viewer! :evil:

With him and Shelton out our season might be on ice the rest of the way. Might get a top 16 pick...

[BuddaKINGII]

Budda lost [ifl]Max Brown[/ifl] for the season. Dat boy gonna trip!

Yeah thanks for telling me! :x

It looks like we are the Browns and Crespo is Jamal Lewis from a couple years ago. I swear we get torn up by Crespo every time. I hate Crespo.

He's been in the division for 5 seasons now and you've got an average of 42 runstopping (by my scout) for your front seven on defense, two of which are playing out of position. At some point you have to take this guy seriously. :shock:

:haha: Crespo just isn't the same guy he used to be.

Ohh I aint complaining that we have a good front 7. I know it is pretty miserable. We take him real serious as he runs past us. Some day we will be able to upgrade the DT, we just have a lot of holes elsewhere too.

Impressive performance by the Grizzlies offense. We put together our 2nd best offensive yardage output. That follows our now 6th best offensive output which we put up last week. Defensively, this was our 2nd best performance ever, only allowing 162 yards.

Even with losing the turnover battle, I can't complain with the results. However, we need to cut down on the turnovers, or that is going to cost us dearly in the next three weeks when we play both Houston and Murphreesboro.

If we can maintain our unblemished conference record over the next two games, we will set up a sensational showdown with Norfolk in week 10. However, I can also see us dropping each of the next two games as well. We'll see how it goes.

This is really the year of the haves & have-nots. Not many .500 clubs at all.

However, we need to cut down on the turnovers, or that is going to cost us dearly in the next three weeks when we play both Houston and Murphreesboro.

Two tough teams to play against when trying to improve your turnover ratio.

im guessing that must be the LT around play call....thats the rumbling stumbling bumbling highlight.

[Kobeck]

LOL - Willoughby once completed a 10ish yard pass to himself - with no YAC. Seems I had any reciever selected.

Beans ...

good win ... and you definately deserved it.

Like I said, I feel lucky but thanks Oh and I just realized I stopped the longest winning streak in IFL history (am I right?)

Yea, I think you are correct ...

:cry: A sad day indeed ...17 games ... need to start another one

[JesterBlaze]

Who has the record for consecutive home victories? I'm probably jinxing myself right now but I'm at a season and a half right now as Tulsa comes to town.
