In 2010 we lost our first 5 games and sucked balls the rest of the season. this season is trending the same direction.

[Suicane]

I can't even remember when I started 2-0.

6-1 lifetime against SLC -- doubt you have an issue continuing that. We suck on defense.

[Beeznik]

WTF. Shut them down all day, then in the 4th quarter they find an offense and win it through our costly fumbles, and yeah...we missed three field goals. We are very mistake prone. Shit. GG Lansing.

GG Vito.
think you need to re-evaluate your 3rd down offense. just maybe need to tone it down a bit.
You also hit me with this........
4Q: 08:27 SLC - Brad Harris 96 pass from Don Downing (Don Downing pass to Cedric Reynolds for conversion)


that hurt. keep working on those horsies. You'll get them turned around.

[JesterBlaze]

Lot of offense in the IFL this week!

Despite trying to again pass the game away with a big lead the Phantoms manage to hold onto the win this week. Not the best week for Tulsa. Is their offense finally done? Better luck going forward, tarcone.

GG Jester

Man. Terrible offense. Sanford was brutal. My receivers were even worse then Sanford. Running game? Whats that?

[SteveBsFan]

I love this game. I think at one point I had 35 pass attempts to 4 runs. Right, that's exactly how I set my gameplan, 10% run. I had 0 chance of making a real comeback attempt because they were familiar with all my pass plays by the 2nd qtr.

Games like this remind me why I hate fof. Sorry, not trying to be a poor sport, Hartford's offense did really well and I probably would have lost anyway, but that was some absurd play calling by the engine.

[Kobeck]

second week in a row that Fresno cant stop the run, 3rd downs or a pass rush. Back to Schwartz having 10+ balls a game defensed. - uugh

Well Bauer is at least a day 1 starter. I thought the issue was the WRs, and I was willing to be patient in getting some. That plan did not work. Now that the Warthog WRs do not all suck it is back too having a hugely disproportionate amount of Schwartz passes defensed downfield.

regardless Firebirds jump out early and then answer Fresno drives in the second half. Game not as close as the margin indicates.

Hoosier ... never expected this at all ... OMG ... had this one pegged as a definate loss for me and cannot explain what ended up as the result. Better luck for the rest of the season.

I've seen this happen a hundred times to other g.m.'s.... one g.m. blows up his team, makes multiple trades before the next game, inactivates players that have been traded, and then that team that's been gutted...


destroys that weeks opponent.


I knew it was going to happen, felt it in my bones that it was going to happen, wasn't surprised it happened.

The Smashmouth gameplan I installed on offense...was ignored by Barlow and he thought he'd throw us out of Norfolk.

Defensively we've been tough, but today... with Norfolk dominating the game clock, we were hugely disappointing.

It's one of those FOF laws... it's gonna happen.

GG Norfolk...good luck the rest of the way.
