Birmingham's drop as many as anybody from what I've seen so far and their YouTube QB still moves them downfield. I take this back. What the hell, Denard? Atlanta still should've changed QBs by now, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite new rule of the AAF is eliminated kickoffs. I don't understand the purpose of onside kicks when 99% of them fail. Putting a team in Atlanta seemed like a bad idea and seeing them struggling isn't going to help anyone. If this league makes it to year two, I'd expect the Atlanta team to relocate. Can't expect a secondary football team to succeed in an NFL market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfwabel Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Trent Richardson had 17 carries for 46 yards and 3 TDs so the Twitterverse thinks a guy who averages under 3 yards per carry needs to get a camp invite. Nah man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rainmaker17 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Totally disagree on kickoffs. I think they play an important role when it comes to field position. Plus it looks funny without them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine if that had been inside Mercedes Benz Stadium Went to the game this afternoon. I’ll at least say that the 10,700 figure doesn’t seem far off from what was visible in the stands. As points of comparison, Georgia State draws about 15,000 to the same stadium, and Georgia Tech draws an alleged 40,000 across town. It’s not an embarrassment anyhow. My end zone seemed pretty crowded. Granted, it was $7/ticket. We moved over to the sidelines at halftime. It helped that there was seemingly no security whatsoever. The crowd was most active in rooting against Matt Simms. The guy got a delay of game on the first possession and spent the rest of the day having the crowd yell out a countdown for every snap clock, then got booed off the field after every futile drive. The announcer couldn’t get an “all hail ATL” chant going to save his life, but the “WE WANT MURRAY!” was reverberating throughout the entire game. And honestly, for a team that used Murray in so many promos and should be trying to build some good will with a new fan base, they don’t seem remotely interested in playing the hometown favorite. On the whole, it was a good experience. Moved very quickly at least. I’d go again if I happened to be in town, but won’t make another special trip.

4_tattoos Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 After 3 weeks the west division appears to be wide open. Wouldn't surprise me if the 2 west playoff spots end up being up for grabs deep into the season. Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What this means is that the decisions about who should play are being made by the coach, and not by the marketing department. This is how it should be.
