2018 Week #14 Discussion

Dakota ... kept it close for 3 quarters, and then you opened the flood gates. Didn't understand why you went for it on 4th down on your two yard line ... probably the worst call I have seen in the IFL history.

GG, anyway.

This game just is retarded sometimes. Happened earlier in the year. I was down 10 midway through the 4th quarter well within fieldgoal range and my coach decides to go for it on 4th down instead of kick an easy FG I later score the TD and wind up losing by 3.

I dont know what is wrong with my team in the 4th quarter but I seem to be able to be leading or very close for 3 quarters no matter who i play and then plop.

Cool stuff almost the same story every week. Good game into the 4th quarter and then i lose by 2 scores because everything goes wrong.

[DakotaGeorge]

This year, total fail. Scott only throws 18 times and 4 of em are interceptions? Wilson averages 9 yards a carry and we only rush 9 times? Ok well, not much to add. The game decided my fate in week 2 when Donovan went down, so I'm just waiting it out now.

I know you herp and derp so let's clear up what happened.

Scott threw 28 times and 4 were INTs and yeah wilson avgd 9 yards a carry because he had a 71 yard TD run. besides that he had 8 carries for 16 yards the rest of his runs.

gg Kobeck. We played alright - better than last week - but gave up too many big plays to Schwartz and Co. At least it was an exciting finish - your fumble almost gave the game to me, but my fumble on a possibly game-clinching run for a first down gave it back to you.

Well, that was a very tough loss as we've failed to keep up with SLC. I think if we were to win our last 3 games we would have a decent chance at winning the division - but the way this team has been playing (lost 2 out of 3, offense hardly scoring) that probably ain't gonna happen. Not ready to concede to SLC just yet though - hopefully we'll make them sweat it out.

[Kobeck]

Thanks for the recap. Won't get to 'watch' till tomorrow afternoon.

[Argot]

blech....

[Chris Rex]

This had to be, hands down, the ugliest game I've ever seen. I think there were literally 4 interceptions in a span of 10 plays at one point...

[tarcone]

Chris Andrews has demolished the YAC single season record. He has 805 YACs. Previous record was 562 yards by Sherman Jarvis.

[Kobeck]

and he has done it without going up against Fresno - truly amazing - lol

[sidewinder66]

Disappointing day. Our defense played as usual. Offense was sub par.
Andrews is having a monster season. Drops another 255 yards.

GG Sidewinder

Good game tarcone,

your offense put up great yardage, but the defense was able to stop them when it was important. my offense was playing well enough and didn't make the usual stupid mistakes.

[dthompso8]

We were well and truely handled by Vermont...

However in the 1st half we were inside the 20 three times and only came away with 1 TD and 2 FG's... need to be punching those in...

Vermont got a big play in the 2nd quarter with a fumble by Vermont picked up by their own plaer and taken 20+ yards for a TD giving Vermont a 14-13 halftime lead...

Mules were awful in the 2nd half, couldn't move the ball or stop Vermont..
Vermont got another big break in the 4th after scoring 14 unanswered points in the 3rd as a they fumbled again and this one was recovered by Vermont and taken 79 yards for a TD....

Thats twice in one game...!!!!

Later in the 4th the Mules kick a 34 yard FG when it is 4th and 1... what was my coach thinking!!!

Vermont were the better team and deserved the win, but this game is frustrating at times...

GG Vermont

[Beeznik]

GG Wichita. We played pretty well. I don't like the three turnovers, in fact, we are being killed by mistakes. We are 27th in turnover margin, and if we don't make the playoffs, that's why. I like the way this team is growing though. We gain some more cohesion over the years, and I think we'll be tough to beat.

[VitoStallion]

Geez,

Tough one Lynx...gg

I hope the defense plays well and they pitch a shutout---first since 2005...Dusty is trying to get a contract extension I see.

Rookie WR Grant Csonka, wow...player knows when to make a play and flat out OWNS the middle of the field (nice to see that courage attribute translate)

Reno is coming to town and Jacobs is banged up...defense has got to hold.


Oak and Vancouver lock it up this Sunday also...time to test the mettle

Jave, you need a win this weekend, try harder

sorry Killer Whales, you guys dropped 38 points on this defense after it played pretty damn well against the Lions...it got my attention 8)

[kingfc22]

Another awesome game by Hamilton. We're in a very good position to get the #1 seed.

GG to Chicago and sorry for your QB

I knew we were a longshot, but losing our best DE and our QB for the season hurt. Also 2 plays totalling 86 yards that called back in the first half didn't do us any favors either.

Good luck the rest of the way.

[Matt]

forgot to respond after watching my game.
Frankly I'm surprised we won. Tribble was demolishing what was supposed to be a top 3 rush defense......and not just this year....last couple of years. In fact, i think we're likely the top rush defense during that time. Tribble had 100yds in the 2nd qtr with like 10 mins to go. All on 10+yd carries. Man, not sure what was up with that. Also, SUllivan was on point as well passing the ball all over.

so how did we win?

caught some breaks here and there and just was plain old lucky. I like the Voodoo's future.
after playing piss poor the past 2 weeks, we get Lawrence on the road wiht our season in the balance. sound familiar? i saw this play out earlier inthe year.

good game wolf3man
