So now Vad Lee is in. Not sure which direction Kirby wants his qb position to go. As much as he likes rotating qbs, maybe he missed his calling in the TSL.

Gotta like that Ahmed 59yrd again.

I don't see the Stars taking too many risks so I think Maulers have a chance here, They are still playing hard.

I will admit that I didn’t think Ahmed would hit 3 in a row from 58+, counting the last few games of course.

Now back to Roland Rivers. I don’t like this qb rotating for no particular reason. That’s developmental league.

Yet NJ and Birm do it, and the Maulers got a TD. Kirby won't be back... as HC anyway. Actually I was thinking Dishman may be moved up, if looking inside the league.

Philly has to keep an eye on Cookus, don't get hurt. Miss on Philly 54yder, distance but wide right from get go.

NJ and Birm (not much), do it because of the different skill sets of the qbs, as well as the defenses being played. Not the case here, Kirby rotating for no apparent reason. TD came from special teams not qb play. No rotating now for the Maulers because Kirby benched Rivers for calling a timeout.
