Good workout Azores (Ray), First half was very tight and even, we rolled players in and out for the whole 60, you took the starters out at half-time so I'm not getting carried away with the win.

As you'd expect with a new gameplan, lots of rookies and little playbook knowledge there was a lot of penalties called.

Good luck going forward - you won't need it though, your rush D is mean and your QB is better than advertised (your back up isn't)

Good practice, JakeJarmel. First half was even, Tunguska's second suit was slightly better.

GG. We ennded up blitzing every down! I think that trend will be lower as the season progresses, but it seemed to help the run D.

Your QB threw a pretty good short game slicing up the blitz scheme at times. But your right QB #2s 39 accuracy just wasn't enough to avoid the drops and INTs....our backup Oline didn't help either..... but it was nice to see my QB#1s 45 accuracy seem at least playable in the near future.

I saw a zero win season prior.... but we're not out of the woods yet!

With only a 32 long run for the whole league this first game and maybe 100 drops the grinding away of the clock with chunk plays might be our offensive strategy going forward on this new 4.6

Goodluck to you as well!

Real good scrimmage Alcatraz, score is irrelevant in these games but for 3 quarters it was nip and tuck all the way.

close game and still lots of work needs to be done. the lead after 3 was quite lucky, with your fumble and some other things.

After my backup came in it was over. he is so bad, i don't even have words for him. 0/31 passes and 4 INTs in the 2 games he nad for now. my bad for even giving him a chance, hopefully his replacement isn't quit as bad as he Sampson was.

playing against your team is a mindfuck for me. players getting overrun by sadio mane and tackles by naby keita is hilarious to me.
for whatever reason i had ryan babel in my mind out of the blue during the game.

fernando torres beeing injured early on was surreal aswell.

good luck this season!
