turnovers killed us, St.L dominated against our run and that was all she wrote.

Sorry about Bazooka. I'd rather him not be injured to help you against Murf later in the season

Newark came out on fire and I feared a dominant beat down. In a tale of two halves the Phantoms came back strong in the 3rd and 4th to steal the victory and a nice lead in the NC East. GG Matt!!

***

Looking at Vic's post LOU rookie Collier got ROTW but robbed for Def POTW. 2 INTs in 19 pass plays beats 1 INT and 3 passes defensed in 46 pass plays all day.

That was a much needed win. We dominated the first half, but had to scrape and crawl to get anything going in the 2nd half.

Albert McDaniel had his first 100 yard rushing performance since 2016 which is hopefully a sign of good things to come in 2018.

Now on to Hartford before the bye.

Good game.
I think this was our season. We are now in last place in the division. We had the lead and should have just ran the ball and controlled the clock. Instead we pass, and run with my back up RB. Play of the game was our defense stopping LAW in the 4th tied 20-20. They punt, we fumble the punt, they recover for TD. AWESOME. Also an earlier fumble in our own redzone game them terrific scoring opportunity.

I may consider trading away some talent to contending teams. Hit me up with something if you want.

Penn showing their still the best team in the league, and further proof, using football logic to create a gameplan does NOT translate to FOF at all. Ohh yea, double covering Wolfe 100% of the time has no effect at all. 9 catches, 117 yards and a score.
I haven't been able to watch the game yet however it appears my gameplan was complete garbage and Hamilton is STILL unstoppable. Will look at the details soon.

Regardless, credit to Penn! GG bro. Maybe the rest of the league will have a shot when Hamilton retires!

[Argot]

Please beat Reno... Please beat Reno....Please beat Reno...

You're welcome.

[tarcone]

We survive against a tough Vermont team. Sanford casually takes us down the field for an 18 yard FG with 4 seconds left in the game. Game over. Ugly win. But we will take it.

GG Coder.

Texas next. They get a taste of victory. I hope it doesnt start a classic Texas run.

[Argot]

The end of the Vancouver game was interesting...19 yard run stopped one yard short of the goalline as time expires.

Hamilton is awesome, but you were able to contain him most of the game. The 2 interceptions are unusual for him.

My Lions played really well in this one. The D was awesome and the running game was able to do a lot.

GG Jave and good luck the rest of the way

Pennsylvania is mowing through potential playoff teams. Home field will be big again.

[Kobeck]

gg Chris. Yet again the Firebirds spank the Warthogs. Unable to watch the viewer tonight but I can tell from the 40 Schwartz pass attempts that the game was not as close as the 10 point difference would lead one to believe.

[Suicane]

GG Steve. Honestly my team was destined to have things fall right at some point and the two turnovers we recovered today really helped. Our defense continues to play above. It's amazing what a talented corner can do.

Bazooka hurts though. Fingers crossed their isn't a big hit.

You'd be surprised. We dominated early, and then there was like a 10 minutes stretch where you scored TDs, turned over a Kickoff, TD, etc etc. You had major momentum and just ran out of time.


COSTLY win... Best player on O and Best player on D out for 3 weeks :-/

He'll be fine in the long run, plus it'll help you land another big pick which will give you even more of a young talented core. Ugh, why am I encouraging you? I mean I hope his leg rots off.
