I’ll have to check it out.
It gives us something to watch.....give us our “fix”, while we wait for the Packers to be back.

The Atlanta @ Orlando game showed me an entertaining product that has room to grow. Orlando started out slow, but turned the momentum in their favor and never looked back Atlanta could do nothing beyond two 1st qtr FGs.

The interesting thing about this new league so far for me is the pass rushing rules, no Kickoffs, and how they decreased the time between snaps. Also, the Super Video Official and getting to hear their commentary as the watch the different angles on the play under review.

Gary Danielson in the broadcast booth commenting during the game did not raise my level of enjoyment. Perhaps CBS will upgrade their talent in the future.

Having all the coaches and refs micd up is cool, and the replay booth. I saw two QB's get absolutely crushed with no flag thrown, that was refreshing.

Sounds like they're using this is a developmental league, but also experimenting with rule changes, like the no kickoff and 2 point conversion rules. And the replay thing, which would be different for the viewers.

I heard Scott Tolzien, Jayrone Elliot and Trent Richardson are playing in this league. Don't know of any other names.

81% of the league is players who have formerly been under NFL contracts

RB Joel Bouagnon (Salt Lake Stallions)
LB Carl Bradford (Arizona Hotshots)
WR Montay Crockett (Atlanta Legends)
OLB Jayrone Elliott (San Antonio Commanders)
CB LaDarius Gunter (Orlando Apollos)
WR Charles Johnson (Orlando Apollos)
DT Joey Mbu (San Antonio Commanders)
RB Rajion Neal (Memphis Express)
LB Chris Odom (Salt Lake Stallions)
QB Marquise Williams (San Antonio Commanders)


OK so three I never heard of. The only reason I knew Odom is because when I saw he was on the Packers I was curious to see if he was related of one of my favorite Packers (he isn't)

I watched one play and saw someone get injured. That's probably all I will watch. Its a good thing for these guys though. Another chance to show off their skills.

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53
Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before
beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season
beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)
Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing
