I would be very surprised to see the Roughnecks win this one, even with Mark Thompson running. I think Arlington getting to 0-4 based on everything they have on offense would be crazy.

I noticed that during the Michigan San Antonio game yesterday. It looked like week 1 football which is unacceptable 4 weeks in. San Antonio really didn't play that well, Michigan just played that bad.

You mean like NY-G vs NE last NFL season?  LOL.   No it wasn't best played by Mich Offense for sure.  Alot goes on the coaches too.  Keep in mind SA started someone new at QB and Mich put in a QB back up in 2nd half
Surratt short armed a few for sure.  But both Defenses played very well IMO.  SA made the big plays in the 1st half before Mich adjusted but SA running game wasn't good and Mich went away from Run wayyyyy to early.  The Birm / DC game was much better.

Tie game here early 2nd. 3-3

Sure, but that's a you (not you but the player) problem. I mean we also see a lot of big plays left on the field cause the pass isn't there cause of the coverage. And that's smart play, I mean what do we want, QBs completing about 55% of their throws and averaging 1.5 INTs a game?

Really like Mike P in the replay booth... no PI - Not obvious not sustained.

Great call Mike!

Oof. Usually Arlington waits until the fourth quarter to have a meltdown.

Yikes now I can see why both teams are 0-3.
