Red on darker red with a Bama style helmet is a fail. I was OK with Orlando and San Diego last night. Love the Fleet logo on helmet. I 100% agree on the fleet, only uniform set I have actually liked thus far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really. 3 networks broadcast their games. CBSSN, TNT and NFL Network. For the next 3 weeks, they’re on TNT next Saturday, then CBS the following 2.

EagleEye67 1,939 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I watched the Orlando-ATL game and was encouraged by the rule innovations and speed of play. I will definitely take in more games, it looks good so far as a concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick.AU 13,279 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I did see a post where someone said that the 5 man rush rule will change, and that it was used as protection since the offenses had such a short training camp, and having them deal with complex schemes and blitzes wasn’t good at the start.

Following a TD or score, they went right back to work …..put the ball on the 25 and get ready to snap it... without two minutes of commercials which made me hustle up my bathroom breaks....

AU64 10,122 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 PS I was good with not having the kick offs.....since seems like everyone ends with a flag, a long discussion among the refs, a video review followed by a walk off penalty...and then after a couple minutes the game actually gets under way. No extra point kicks and no kickoffs.....makes me wonder how they will deal with a FG kicker who might only be on the field a couple plays a game.....so anyone who is a reasonable punter and also a reasonable FG kicker will be more valuable on their reduced rosters.

Less commercials was one of the advertised perks. Pace of game was pretty good, with exception if the hurry up, go pee. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverick.AU 13,279 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Bham was close to going to the half without allowing a point in 6 quarters of play, but a Quan Bray muffed punt leads to a TD drive by Salt Lake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a start up league I’m sure million dollar expenses aren’t the drop in the bucket like nfl and college are. I will say that it doesn’t seem to have been drawn up, planned, or researched the way it should’ve been from a financial stand point, and it seems like they went in hoping that someone with money would be intrigued enough to make a huge investment. If the players salary is all in “game checks”, then roughly the aaf is having to pay close to 3 million a week just to the players. Plus all of the players get great health insurance, not to mention coach salaries, other expenses etc. I saw an article that said coach salaries had not been disclosed but that spurrier, for instance, was offered (rumor) 500,000 a year.

That's the likely answer. Can see that by end of the season with attendance of 15,000 per game that money might be an issue but now? Then again in our little tourist oriented town I see people opening various shops or cafes and go out of business in a year or less. The dreams outweigh logic and calculation I guess. I don't know much but I'd think they would have enough money in the bank or line of credit to pay all expected first year expenses including stadium rental ….even if the season ticket sales were zero. The thing is, players salaries can't be much and squad sizes are smaller than NFL and no superstar salaries. Almost none of them had a job playing football anywhere before they were hired by the league are likely making peanuts ….just to get the opportunity to show what they can do and maybe get back to the NFL. https://heavy.com/sports/2019/02/aaf-salary-contract-players-money-coaches/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
