The same Emmons who went all MJ against the Seahawks (who waived him at the beginning of camp) in the preseason--only for the Raiders to waive him a few days later anyway.

A little more of that here would be nice.

Tampa sends Rausa out for a 58 yard field goal attempt …. Yeah…. He missed wide right. Still 13-10 Stallions.

Wasted a time-out to kick a 58 yard field goal even though your defense has been playing lights out and could've punted to pin the stallions deep

That’s game. Stallions remain unbeaten.

Overall a lacklustre affair. :roll:

Defenses swarming tonight, the pressure was on the QBs all night.

TB and Ta'amu just got manhandled tonight, I thought they'd get more going in 2nd half.

Stallions can play both sides of ball and are feeling it. Was expecting more of an offensive game tonight. Was defensive battle but close hard hitting game I like.

Haley needs to get TB O more consistent. The D looks good. May need to light fire under Ta'amu by playing the backk up but the OL gave no help to Ta'amu.

Stallions at 4-0 are the real Deal - period.

I like the hard hitting but the O esp on TB wasn't there. The other 2 week 4 games were better and more O by far.

But it was close and the outcome was in doubt till under a minute. Kept me watching.

Having said that give the D's credit they played tough. NJ Pitt would have been the better game.

I just watched some USFL, and wasn't bad, and still 1000% better than soccer.
