how NWStorms are above D'Hara is a mystery...

Seems like you were in a big hole after Game 1 and are working back from it, whereas they had enough of an elo lead from being 2-0 that their loss didn't hurt as much. They barely edged you out this past game due to barely higher ELO competition. Your opponents ELO's were flipped for Week 4, and you're probably just above NW Storm.

Surprisingly the yardage difference was a lot closer than the score would indicate. Maybe next time D'Hara you'll convert more of your drives into points so it'll be a shootout. Cause I wasn't really stopping your offense, just slowing it down a bit.

It was frustrating our offense killed itself, nothing went right that game. 3 consec missed extra points

So damn close to knocking off Nebraska

Yeah gg, our dc got over zealous that game and went for a sellout defense...more proof we need to stick to a safe defense and try to let our strip tech fire for us

Yeah we played like crap... We also pressured your qb 20 times and all but I think 2 of those throws were completed into coverage. Great game to watch though

Big HoF vs AZ game coming up in 15 minutes... looking forward to this one. Rematch of the championship game in Vodka last season, and a matchup between last season's #1 and #3 teams in the tier.

Was really hoping it was later this season. Hopefully I can keep it competitive. So far the scoring and yardage differences between our teams are a lot closer than they were last season...that's something.

GG HoF! Did not expect to hold you to only 31 points. Some of your defensive players were straight up nasty. Lawrence Taylor's build must be crazy, he's got a crap ton of speed yet he was shedding blocks left and right. Jack Butler is a damned animal. The guy is insane.

I hate how Diamond Counter is the only weakside counter play that isn't somehow glitched. No idea what's going on with my RB's on the other weakside counters. They get stuck in sidestep mode after the handoff:

What the hell is going on with those? My rookie team doesn't do that, no other teams have their RB's get stuck like that. No idea, but a large chunk of my offensive playbook just went pfft.

Hooray fullback!

Yup, the build issues that plagued me to end last season in our match-up are still there. Have put some SP into it, but clearly not enough.

Long story short, looking forward to a rematch at the end of the season, when we can double up (and triple up) on ladder draws! I promise (knock on wood) that my offense will be better built/managed by then.

Good game! Honestly was pretty close... could have gone either way. Break a few runs off for TDs like you did on the TD run earlier in the game, and the morale swing is significant enough to change the outcome. Definitely was a much more defensive matchup than any of our previous ones. We'll take it though. You guys have consistently kept the score closer than any other team over the past season (except maybe DD pre-b00n inactivity) so am just happy with the win.

No idea how I held your offense to such a low score. I don't really know how to defend you, so I sort of just throw crap out there and hope for the best. This time it kind of sort of worked.

I thought I held them up pretty good for forgetting to change my O tactics (knew they would go with the 5-2) and fumbling 9 times (5 of which I lost)...

I want another shot at em

GG Factory of Sadness, seemed to hit enough breakaways to overcome your aggressive defense.
