2020 Week #3 Discussion

[Kozure]

damn, for the second straight game, my defense has no answer for the Mules offense. I think I gave up a huge play on every drive the Mules had. Good game Mules

[DakotaGeorge]

Defense came up with 3 INTs 4 Sacks and only allowed 157 yards on 51 plays. Only 48 yards rushing on 21 carries for the opponent. Excellent.

[Mike17]

Well, CLE/NFK lived up to the hype. It was definitely a showdown between Cavazos and Perkins, the 2 QBs seemed to almost move the ball at will. Either side's defenses seemed to shore up though once the other team crossed the 50. There were many drives that ended in long field goal attempts.

My special teams unit lost me the game today. We gave up several long returns including a punt return for a TD. That return TD ended up being the difference in the final score. We still had a chance to come back, though. Down by 7 with 2:18 left, Perkins stormed down the field and I thought we were going to overtime. But a INT in the redzone ended our comeback.

GG rook. Maybe I'll see you again come playoff time.

Can't say I'm not bummed about this one. It was an excellent game to watch, very well matched. But the great teams win games like this.

[DDT]

Good game, Vito.

I think your very talented OL and real good receiver were the difference. 40 rushes for 180 yards and Don Gomez catching 6 balls for 5 first downs and a TD killed me. Those are the kind of stat lines we just don't have the horses to produce.

[Jave]

We FINALLY get the albatross off our neck and not only win, but DOMINATE The Lions. In a good ol' fashioned line em up smash mouth football we just pound and pound Wilson play after play at Penn running Wilson at them all day long.

Oakland	Att	Yards	Avg	LG	10+	TD
Geoff Wilson	29	100	3.45	15	2	2

We dominate the line of scrimmage, recording 28 1st downs, and hold onto the ball for a staggering 41:37. Granted this isn't the Penn of years past, but after losing to them 6 straight times dating back to 2009, I'll take it any way I can get it.

[Jave]

Awww, that's a shame about Gomez and all Vito

[tarcone]

We smack Newark around today, 41-17.

Sanford continues to pay well, 27-32 for 318 yards and 4 TDs.

Singleton goes 17-96 and 1 TD. He creeps ever so closer to the record. He is now 117 yards away from breaking the all time rushing record. Unfortunately it looks like he will break the record on the road in Texas. I dont see him getting that many yards next week.

GG Matt. Your QB had a nice game. I figured he would. It would have been a monster game had that long gain not be called back for holding.

[ukpatfan]

Nice to get off the mark.
GG Chicago.

Wichita showing signs of waking up....

I drafted Kufahl in my first go round here. Happy to see him come up big this week. Inskeep also had a 64 yard fumble return for a TD that doesn't show up.

[JesterBlaze]

Expected growing pains for Madison in this one. Great to see my defense actually play defense anyway.

After about 17 draft picks thrown at the position the Phantoms might finally have a great RB. 195 rushing yards for Propane today and perhaps more importantly 0 fumbles on 35 carries!

"RZAc" was 8/13 on KRBs. I'm not up on the OL records but I'm interested to see how that compares.


CLE/NFK was all that was expected! Not sure what happened to the 'dogs today. Gonna have to peak over at TUL/NWK...

[JesterBlaze]

NWK/TUL... what a strange game. Newark got blown out without really getting that outplayed.

[Hoosier]

rookie qb will get the next start, as the former Chicago veteran stunk up the place... damn Matadors are a very...unlucky.... snakebitten... team.

It should make it all the more satisfying when we finally break through....

Good game Montreal... well, good win for you...

[SteveBsFan]

Whew, survived a close one. Had a few key penalties to keep their drives going, but got a huge blocked kick return for a TD late in the game. Anchorage still wouldn't go away as they nearly tied it again, but couldn't get the onside kick.

Still, good to be 3-0 especially when Murf won't lose either. Next 3 games at home are extremely important to my season

[Kobeck]

Kept the Cards out of the EZ and that was the difference in the game. Suicanes Cards controlled the ball but had to settle for 7 FGs

gg StL for the first time in a long time this game was not a brutal puntfest
