He's good but they'd probably be better off signing the Defenders Defensive Coordinator. 

Lafleur is a coward who won't make changes until well past due.  Should have fired Joe Barry mid-season, but LaFleur claimed he didn't want to make a mid-season move (because why risk breaking something that's... already broken), and then goes and keeps him after the season, too, because who knows.

 

Same problem taking way too long to take Amari Rodgers off of kickoff/Punt returns despite fumble after fumble.  And it's not like he was high risk high reward, either; fumbles aside he wasn't breaking big returns.  Turns out we had an all-pro returner sitting on the bench waiting for coach to finally bench Rodgers (and subsequent cut since he contributed nothing on offense, either).

It'll be great if you guys can follow up Joe Dingleberry with Greg Manusky or even Jim Hazlett. :cheers:

Packers cut Punter Pat O'Donnell, meaning D.C. Defenders star punter Daniel Whelan has won the job.  This must be what folks who went to schools with football teams felt like when someone they rooted for from their Alma Mater gets drafted and starts playing for their favorite NFL team.

The XFL started earlier last year I think. Too bad their is no football until the middle of March madness. March 30th is the first game I think.

Yeah, it could be a rough first couple weeks. The championship is April 8, so at least this time they're not competing with the whole tournament.

what I noticed were quite a few guys who had been NFL picks like six or seven years ago.  Got to say that doesn't make them likely to se this league as a stepping stone back to the NFL

Turn it on, this team is trash...give it until half time.

 

Edit: If I'm hearing correctly, Reuben Foster made a tackle (against us) behind the LOS and then Corn Elder took an INT back for a pick six (against us). Not only do the Defenders suck, but we're getting clapped by former Washington teammsters.

Not surprised considering their monster RB tore his ACL before the season started.

Yeah the running game really suffered today.

Good thing they got on track with the passing game later and finally pulled it out.
