Honestly, I forgot he wasn't on the team for a bit and he just disappeared. I'd like to get more background on the whole thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to get more background on the whole thing. DJ was cut after publicly trashing Greg Manusky's defense in 2018. https://www.ithacajournal.com/story/sports/nfl/redskins/2018/12/24/washington-redskins-dj-swearinger-released-greg-manusky/2406779002/ Quote "(Redskins coach Jay Gruden) just said it was the third time I've been in his office and we're going to release you," Swearinger told. "And that was that. "I don't have words for this. ... I gave it my all and put my heart into it every single week to the best I could. I guess it says a lot about the organization." Gruden told the Washington Post, "We just thought it was best for both parties." Swearinger took issue with the man-to-man coverages that the team used when Titans backup quarterback Blaine Gabbert entered the game to replace Marcus Mariota, who left with a stinger and did not return. "We should have blowed them out," Swearinger said, according to ESPN. "If I'm the D-coordinator, I'm calling zone every time on third down because you got a backup quarterback. Make him beat us. "We're playing a backup quarterback. Why would you put us in man to man? We are our best on defense when we look at the quarterback." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Williams can't be telling them to blow it on all of those deep balls like they do. Then they can't even tackle so they give up TD's on all of them. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedBNG Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 I thought icing the kicker with our last TO was dumb. I felt we might need it once we get the ball back and throw a deep ball to set up our last FG. Turns out it was the right move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked how the kicker kicked it anyways and had this smug look on his face...that look didn't stay on his face for long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsFTW Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 It's crazy how many fans are going to these games vs the USFL having almost totally empty stands. Looks like the XFL is going to at least make it to a 2nd year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year they are in Birmingham and a few neutral sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KWilliamsAWinfield Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 (edited) The loss is very disappointing but Defenders had a great season! Congratulations to Stoops and his Arlington team, as a Sooners fan, I have always loved Stoops and I am very happy for him, he is awesome! Boomer Sooner!

Professor_Nutter_Butter Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Defenders really spent all that time going 10-1 just to lose to a team that got back to .500 with the championship win. Sad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
