2021 Week #8 Discussion

[ukpatfan]

We host the Clawz who normally have our number as Wichita enter a crucial part of the season.
Do we manage to push on towards the playoffs or will division rivals pull us back into the mix.
It'll be interesting to see just how far the Outlaws have actually progressed.

Hope it's a good game Mike but I hope we sweep Cleveland, kick your ass and flip the AC North on it's head for good.

Kozure has learned how to maximize the STs aspect of FOF. I think Im close to where he is, but not quite there.
Im missing something, which I will be investigating in the offseason of my leagues.

but can he stop Jesse Lucas on a catch and run................

1-10-NWK05 (4Q: 02:40) Dwight Burger pass completed to WR Jessie Lucas for 95 yards and a TOUCHDOWN! Lucas gained 81 yards after the catch.

(4Q: 02:40) Extra point by Butch Schulz was good.

our team has been simply terrible on defense. We have to remember how to play again. here's to hoping this game against GEO is step 1 in a march forward.

We turn the ball over too much here in Georgia. I hope it ends soon or we'll find ourselves out of the playoff hunt.

[Suicane]

We're the Jeffersons of the Imperial League...we're movin' on up!!!! Won't last long..

Even though I'm on a bye I still have a game to watch with interest. Go Firebirds!!

[Mike17]

Ugh. One more loss and we're pretty much done for the season. Get it together, boys!

[Kozure]

a 10.5 underdog ...damn ... things sure have shifted here in the division and quite frankly, I don't have a f'n clue on how to game plan against the new makeup of your team ... not to say that I ever had much success.

But WTF K-man ... who would have thought that Roy Ramsey (rated 20-20 and with only one decent bar for special teams and a rating of zero for punt returns) would have the league's third best punt return average at 12.4 yards. You obviously know something about these one bar special team bandits cause you have quite a few of them on your team.

Well ... I got to applaud your success with this team this year ... you got the my vote for GM of the Year and we are just at midseason. You have definately uncovered something new and I just can't put my finger on it.

See you on the field tomorrow ... its always a treat to match wits ... only this time I am scratching my head and will probably be scratching my ass after the game.

I don't think I deserve to be a 10 and a half point favorite. Maybe 4.5 points or something. I believe our last four games have been decided by five points or less.

not sure what i'm doing that's different. I think I've been a little bit lucky this year. Maybe have a team full of old farts isn't a bad thing. I don't have the game open, but I have to have the oldest team in the league. LOL

Another game where we outgain our opponent by almost a hundred yards and lose. WTF Georgia.

[Chris Rex]

GG los

In all seriousness, I am convinced that I will never ever ever figure out offense in this game. If I score another TD all year it will be a miracle.

GG to you, too.

[Kozure]

Good game, r00k. I'm surprised by the result. You got screwed by some penalties early that, I think, ruined a couple good chances for you to score.

I really do think my team is over the hill and lacking the talent it has had in the past. For some reason, they are playing very well. I ride this wave as long as I can. If I remember right, last year I was tearing it up only to go on a four or five game losing streak. Just glad to get the Norfolk games behind me.

[tarcone]

Home field was the difference. Couldnt stop Lawrence from marching down the fiel with 1:29 left and up by 4.

GG Jester.

[BuddaKINGII]

GG Kobeck...defense played lights out we kept Fresno to fgs and we did just enough to score some points. Can't wait till we get Jacobs back probably gonna sit him one more game. LA is looking tough though might need to play him.

[JesterBlaze]

Whacky, exciting game against Tulsa! 66 Yard TD to Andrews called back due to penalty. double penalty for Lawrence while injuring a TUlsa player pulls us out of FG range. Back and forth drives at the end and Tulsa gets a 17 yarder to put them in FG range to send it into sure OT and somehow took more than 11 seconds on the play so the clock ran out.

As with our last game I think the loser needed just one more play. GG tarcone! Chris Andrews is ridiculous. If not for the penalty he would've had another 200+ yard game and I was focused on stopping him and leaving the rest open.
