McCarron missed that 4th down throw badly.

So I was reading a bit about this version of the XFL (XFL3???) and I noticed that they have a deal for the Indoor Football League to essentially be their minor league.

quote:

The XFL and the Indoor Football League (IFL) today announced a wide-ranging player personnel partnership.

The partnership provides the framework for transferring players between leagues and the opportunity for players released from XFL teams to be transferred to IFL squads. The two leagues will also work together in scheduling joint tryouts and sharing video and game films.

“Our partnership with the IFL is a win across the board,” said Doug Whaley, XFL SVP Player Personnel. “Not only will the League have access to a consistent pool of highly competitive players who are in game shape, but it will also provide the opportunity for some of our players to continue their development and extend their professional careers.”

“We are extremely excited to be working with the XFL,” said Todd Tryon, Commissioner of the IFL. “This partnership will allow a bigger opportunity for the players of the IFL. Our goal is to create a platform for our players to advance their career on and off the field and this is another step towards that.”

There are 14 teams in IFL and they are the current home to two former AFL great in the Iowa Barnstormers and Arizona Rattlers. Their season kicks off March 17.

McCarron is 4-for-9 for 45 yards and he's been sacked twice.

Also i believe they’re indirectly working with the NFL in some capacity. I think this iteration of the XFL if going to work. They’re already in cities that have been longing for pro teams, has a good infrastructure with Rock and his ex wife at the helm. Looks like an apparel deal with Under Armour which is very beneficial and not to mention the TV deal with Disney which is the big piece of the puzzle.

The USFL is in big trouble. The games so far have been entertaining just because of the tweeking with the rules theyve done. Really liking the review process

Attendee across the league should be good between SA, STL, Seattle and Orlando. Maybe an average between 20-35k

Yeah, if I was starting a team from scratch, I'd definitely lean more towards a mobile QB.

But McCarron is a name, I guess?

Why?

They are part owned by Fox Sports and have a wider distribution than XFL w/games on Fox, FS1, NBC, USA, and Peacock.

Hope Bengals and LSU fans aren't watching. Receiver got hit after stepping out of a bounce and no flag.

Getting beat by Jack Coan.

This is a low point in Battlehawks history.

Mccaron is the most garbage quarterback I've seen so far in the XFL
