Not going Memphis's way. They stop the Stallions on the fake punt and then Cookus gets strip sacked.

You don't want to get into a shootout with Birmingham. I can see this game getting ugly soon

Yet DeFlop keeps calling pass plays on short yardage and all the plays are too long developing.  Short yardage = short play.  Run the ball.  And maybe Troy williams was needed today. Cookus holding way to long.

Cookus needs 6 throws 30, that aint working

Williams in split second throw underneath and 7 yrds - smart

DeFlop is the John Gruden of UFL - "offensive guru" with no offense

Memphis makes it interesting but can't complete the 4th and 12. Close but no cigar.
