It's a beautiful day where I'm at. Plus with DST kicking in, plenty of sunshine and later into the evening.BengalErnst wrote: ↑Sun Mar 08, 2020 4:57 pm No one must be watching this game. Board is absolutely dead
Smart move by the league to put the Wildcats game at 9.

Still watching, but there's not a ton to say about it. The Defenders should be up by two scores but are constantly shooting themselves in the foot. It's maddening. I wish I was there in person, then at least I would be drunk and enjoying myself more.

Well, it's over. The Battlehawks are still for real; not quite sure about the Defenders yet. They were too inconsistent to inspire much confidence, but they did manage to win.
Marquette King took a bad hit to his punting leg in the fourth quarter. I hope he's all right.

That was a Defensive battle. DC really turned it on when the QB changed. Wasn't expect the Battlehawk struggle so much with penalties and feel short on 4 and inches. Not with that run game.

You have to give the Defenders fanbase credit. There is a reason they're 3-0 at home and 0-2 on the road, and the Audi Field environment is part of that.

The cup snake was pretty cool and did set themselves apart from others.johnnyangryfuzzball wrote: ↑Sun Mar 08, 2020 6:22 pm You have to give the Defenders fanbase credit. There is a reason they're 3-0 at home and 0-2 on the road, and the Audi Field environment is part of that.

Good defensive battle, but it was frustrating to watch. Both teams had a lot of missed opportunities.

Ratings for this game are going to be terrible. Combine:
1) a boring game
2) a beautiful day weather wise in the north east
3) FS1
And you have a recipe for very low tv ratings. Hope I am wrong but social media engagement seems to back me up.
