Perez and Lindsey had great games, but Arlington ended up shooting themselves in the foot,. Stoops in the post-game press conference trying to calm down Perez.

Something's seriously wrong in Arlington. Not just with attendance, but on the field.

They consistently can outplay their opponent, then lose the game. And this one, against a vulnerable DC squad that has taken a huge step backward, was one of their best shots to do that.

As I said, giving them two championship game rematches as well as the flagship for their first three might sink them before they even start. SA's going to be Vegas/Canton-level if they don't come back from Houston 1-3.

Yeah, I was thinking about that too. They've really had a tough draw to start the season.

Yeah and i cost me a bet :twisted:

But seriously piss poor time mgt after that FG to go up by 10.  It was like deja vu allover again from Memphis last week.

Plus play 60 minutes - also call T/O on 4/12 after they line up and get ready.   They only needed at FG

DC lucky two weeks in a row,  REALLLY lucky today.

BUT Give DC credit for making it happen
