Warcodered Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 1 minute ago, Steptide said: Another thing I think the xfl shoukd do is allow teams to kick a fg for 1 point after a td, but still allow teams to go for 2 or 3 from the 5 or 10 yard line. I don't love going for 1 from 2 yard line The entire point is to get rid of the gimmee point from extra points and put a level of strategy to it. I mean if they do that everyone will kick until they have to go for more just like with two point conversions now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When asked what NY needs to do he said change the entire offensive game plan. He'll probably be replaced within a couple of weeks talking like that. If there's a post game presser, I wouldn't be surprised if Gilbride says : We need to change the entire QB depth chart. Looks like they started with the QB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Man Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Woeful. This is Hackenberg AAF level. These McGloin interviews is why the NFL will never copy the sideline interviews, it just stirs trouble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reports of the drama are going to come out later, anyway. XFL teams are all owned by the same guy. No reason to hide this drama. This lets fans see what's going on in real time, not needing to rely on post-game reports blaming this-and-that. This is a much better experience and I think Vince McMahon welcomes it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d think the other side could just be watching TV in the box. Maybe there is a delay? It just seems funny, and definitely not Astro-level of sneaky. I only watched a few minutes, but it was enough to make me watch a few minutes of the game coming up on Fox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando Tim Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 The QB play was poor but the surprising part to me was that the officials made two big calls on the last drive for Tampa on what seemed to be plays that did not need to be called. it seemed up to that point they only called things that HAD to be called, those two in crunch time seemed small.

simpleman Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 This weeks game just show very clearly. It is all about a decent QB. You can make an entertaining game with middling talent on the rest of the field. But without competent Qbs the game is boring. If the XFL wants to not fail like all that came before it, they have to actually pay serious bucks for quality QB talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
