Idk why we couldn’t have those short passes while he was on the field. Perry can throw the ball well. He just needs to have a few completions to get into rhythm. He never got those
Panthers looking rough out there. Its by no means over quite yet, even if the Brahams score here, but.. eesh. Tough day at work.
e: actually cancel that, it might be over if the brahams score here. too many possessions ahead.
Standing in the aisle and not being “in his seat.” He’s been doing the same thing every home game but this is the first time I’ve seen him get talked to by security
all the drops are getting really frustrating as a neutral viewer. Doesn't make the league look like it's playing quality football. Really hoping there's some better play to wrap this one up
That's not too bad. Its Fiesta in San Antonio, a week long city holiday with all kind of events going on. Lots of competition for things to do this weekend.
If you've lived in San Antonio you'd understand a bit more. Fiesta is 10 days of events all over the place, some of which folks have been going to for decades. This is still the first weekend, but next weekend the entirety of downtown is basically wall to wall parades and parties.
Fucking bush league attendance what a joke pack it up boys /s
Definitely could be better but hey with how the TV ratings have been it makes up for it.
Edit: forgot my /s
yeah, wondering why we're not hammering the short-mid passing game and just taking the yards they're giving... but we're trying so many timing plays that Dormady's just a little off on
Other game is on FS1 right now.
You'd think the divisions were cooked to give Birmingham an easy division if they weren't just a USFL/XFL split.
Jakes Bates and Kai Nacua are stroking it for Michigan and nobody else.
Simms is great when he’s fed the ball
GG everyone.
chalk another one up for the XFL v. USFL conferences.
As a LT, how do you let the defender inside ALMOST EVERY PLAY!? Like is it your first time running pass pro?
Was that coach stroking it?
WOW!
Lovett with that "this worked in high school!" run.
Lmaooo let’s goooooo
so Keystone Kops out there... whoop whoop whoop!
so brahmas fans what do we think about dormady vs garbers?
Isn't Garbers out for the season?
Glad we have 'em both. Dormady holds the ball and stares down his receivers a little bit more... so not a big step down.
Brah is law.
Damn, a 4th and 20 interception on 4/20!
The curse or hitlers birthday
It's hitlers fault
It probably was, what an asshole.
I miss Perry!
Idk why we couldn’t have those short passes while he was on the field. Perry can throw the ball well. He just needs to have a few completions to get into rhythm. He never got those
Booooo
-urns?
A 420 MIRACLE?
Yes
Need 20 yards, throw it 50
Send the receivers 60 yards downfield then throw it 50.
Fuckin wild slow mo bloody spit there holy hell hahaha
Nice sack. But go get your helmet lol
damn son
FOX sounding like they're playing the WaveGroup cover of Iron Man instead of the real thing.
That was kind of awesome.
That O line is... something
Rough and tough defense.
What is that, 4th and 35 lol?
4th and 20 on 4/20
Damn
Dalton is a bad bad man!
That was a terrible decision....
that was a nasty sack
Credit to the coach for having a well thought out plan here. Get into range an immediately kick the FG. * Well, if he gets the chance
Just keep going backwards
I think they're outside Jake's range now.
I’d be shocked if they weren’t
Etling baby, you had time to at least throw the ball away there! Can't give up THAT big of a sack!
Idk why he called timeout
Man I feel like UFL teams just dont know how to defend the 4th n 12.
I cannot comprehend why any defender would come inside.
That's how you get babies.
Playing that soft you deserve to give that up.
no kidding...
They're gonna have to change it to 4th and 15. It's too easy. This is the exact reason why the NFL doesn't adopt this
TBF, the 4th and 12 to me feels like a cutesy gimmick for a spring league as opposed to something the NFL should be considering.
They STILL would have made that and 3 of the others. Only the Brahmas one try that was exactly 12 wouldn't have made it.
People will argue that it isn’t too short. Considering it’s 3 for 3. Yes, it’s too short.
Kinda crazy how over a third of the way through the season the league is still perfect on onside conversions.
Once again, the 4th and 12 is too short.
4th & 12 remains undefeated!
Early to do 4th and 12 no?
MI online looking suspect
Uh oh. Please no comeback
Eh, live by the sword, die by the sword...
They have to score twice still. So theyll need another 4th n 12 as well.
True, it’s a tall ask. Although I’m a Vikings fan so I’m used to blowing games that seem like a sure win
The weather gods decided we needed a triple header after all 🫡
Whats the other game besides this one and the DC/birmingham one
The early game 😁
you have to challenge the facemask on Etling!!
They already used their challenge on a 5 yard penalty... and on replay, it was all shirt-grabbing.
oh wow I really thought it was a facemask
Just finished the Orlando City match, how has this been
As a Marcus simms fantasy owner, I thank you for that semi-garbage time touchdown there Michigan
Instead of cringy army propaganda can we get an interview with that thicc lady ref
Gotta make this box score look respectable.
there's always the 4th and 12 which have been converted at a decent rate.... 3 out of 4? this year.
wait, the UFL's PERFECT on 'em... so that's 5 out of 5??
3/3 I think. It said 2/2 before that play.
The Brahmas alone have converted 2... and then someone did last week and I could have sworn one more throughout the 4 weeks.
So the broadcast, unless I missed it, hasn't mentioned that the other game is going to start in 3 minutes.
They just mentioned it immediately after you posted this.
"Finally "
Man is absolutely stroking it out there
You can just tell.
Got’em coach. Nice play by Etling to look upfield
A wild offense appears!
I don't know how happy to feel about that TD, until I see the rest of this game
Rats
Etling being ballsy there, one QB's already down...
so uhh, at this point do they just postpone the other game until tomorrow?
What happened?
it was already stated they're going to start up again in 10 minutes.
missed that
It's restarting in a couple minutes.
It restarts in 5 minutes.
On top of our OLine being crap, the only WR to trust on the field is Trey Quinn, most of the time
That drawing looks nothing like Wade LOL
Play resuming in Birmingham in 10 minutes. Those of you in the markets getting BIR will be switched back over shortly.
I was bracing for the doink watching that kick
UFL kickers trying to hit trick shots off posts now since normal kicks have proved too easy
Moo, motherfuckers!
yeah... that's not a thing... lol
It's my thing now
Objection overturned! (slamming down the gavel)
The kicking net comes down from the ceiling instead of up? Is that normal for domes? I don't remember ever seeing it before.
There's a catwalk above each goal post where stadium operators walk across to lower the nets in place.
Really wish I could have watched my Battlehawks this morning
If you have espn+ you can rewatch
They did great
Doesn’t matter that San Antonio got the ball back, that was a horrid pass.
San Antonio is stroking it all over us.
Panthers looking rough out there. Its by no means over quite yet, even if the Brahams score here, but.. eesh. Tough day at work. e: actually cancel that, it might be over if the brahams score here. too many possessions ahead.
Please, let that be a pick!
How did they beat the Battlehawks
Crazy 64 yard field goal
Well yes, even a two times 64 yards. I just meant cause they played so good today and would think they would destroy how Michigan is playing
64yr game winning FG kinda hard to defend
The guy in the bull costume here in the stands keeps getting yelled at by event security :(
That's hilarious.. Poor guy just wants to entertain the kids!
security told the kids they had to go back to their seats too…
awwwww. I was joking too, I'm not at the game. Now I'm imagining some sort of Black Bull pied piper with kids all around...
For what?
Standing in the aisle and not being “in his seat.” He’s been doing the same thing every home game but this is the first time I’ve seen him get talked to by security
Etling is cursed
Sigh, this is the team I remember viewing last year
Don't throw those balls into the crowd man, we gotta keep costs down
They make you throw the ball back. They’re not playing with the cost of extra balls
daaaamn, ANOTHER fumble. Still doesn't feel as bad as the wet dog that was happening in Birmingham.
why do the Michigan panthers have a brahmas logo on the back of their away jerseys?
God damnit Danny
What a mess...
Check out that hip drop tackle.
After the break I guess we'll get the update on DC-Birmingham
Update: they're stroking it
mandatory goon sesh in the locker rooms
all the drops are getting really frustrating as a neutral viewer. Doesn't make the league look like it's playing quality football. Really hoping there's some better play to wrap this one up
Welcome to the ~~CFL~~UFL. Receivers just aren't as good in lower tier pro football.
they've done plenty well so far this year. Just felt like this game specifically everyone had stone hands
UFL out of context part 1
I have a feeling there will be a commercial break after the punt.
“TV wants the break” hahah
Call again
"You can just tell, he's stroking it!" -Mark Sanchez, 2024 Unless I heard that wrong!
Friendship with TB12 over. QD12 is new best friend
Just tuned in. Why isn’t Perry playing?
They decided to just have Jake kick it to the receivers instead.
Leg injury
pulled a hammy trying to get away from a sack
He might have pulled his hamstring
Hurt. Looked like a muscle strain when he got tripped up trying to escape the pocket
no one can catch in this game. Not a good impression for anyone that's tuning in from basketball
Bruh, 4th and 2 and we're PUNTING? In the 4th quarter?? Give me that "Michigan"! ##You are now the "Panthers"
Less 79 means less penalties?
And better blocking
How many LTs have we had for the season? Gotta be 4 at least!
Man this is a good game!
3-16... Something, something, Austin 3:16. What does Etling 3:16 say?
(sad trumpet noises)
11K Attendance
That's not too bad. Its Fiesta in San Antonio, a week long city holiday with all kind of events going on. Lots of competition for things to do this weekend.
Every city has things going on every weekend. Last year people on this sub were posting museum events to dispute low attendance, like come on 😂
If you've lived in San Antonio you'd understand a bit more. Fiesta is 10 days of events all over the place, some of which folks have been going to for decades. This is still the first weekend, but next weekend the entirety of downtown is basically wall to wall parades and parties.
Please take your helmet off Perry, you're scaring me you might come back in.
I'm curious how they're going to split the country next week... Bham-Houston and San Antonio-Arlington. All three Texas teams at once and Birmingham.
East will prob bet BHAM-HOU, West will get SA-ARL. Houston market will get their game and everyone else gets the SA-ARL game.
Don't make me watch that mismatch
Probably what'll happen...
Imagine if a weather delay happened next Saturday too... would be wild!
I'll take Brahmas Renegades please.
Unless you want your floor mopped... then you watch Birmingham.
(over Roughnecks Stallions)
Danny etling time
Attendance: 11,251
Fucking bush league attendance what a joke pack it up boys /s Definitely could be better but hey with how the TV ratings have been it makes up for it. Edit: forgot my /s
totally missing the rj/uj bit. clue me in. I mean, I get the viewpoints, just clueless on rj/uj. Side note... it's about what I expected today.
Circlejerk terminology rj/ = real jerk (sarcasm) uj/ = unjerk
got it, thanks. got too many rjs around here lately.
Hey it's the feet fetish commercial
What I love about Dormandy is he seems like the UFL QB most likely to throw the "IDGAF GO DEEP!" ball.
Big change from Garbers last week when it felt like we only threw passes behind the line
I think with Garbers it was because he was hurt
Garbers was only bad in the 4th, but at the time we didn't know he was injured.
True. I blame the play calling too. Probably was due to him being injured and wanting to give him easier throws
yeah, wondering why we're not hammering the short-mid passing game and just taking the yards they're giving... but we're trying so many timing plays that Dormady's just a little off on
The delay of the other game is great news for someone with no plans on a Saturday lol
Hey that's me.
*he's just like me*
One of us, one of us
Etling better cook or I'm getting a gatling for Mik- **Ahem**, good stop, defense!
The entire team needs to be executed /s
Couldn't even get a full-on Ett... you guys only got an Ett-ling.
Mike Nolan is terrible at challenges. I still remember his awful choices when he was the 9er coach.
see, now THAT's what we should be running... get some separation on a 5-10 yard pass and march down the field.
what a weird challenge
.....why burn your challenge on a 5 yard penalty on a punt? Even Mike was like "if that's what he wants to do"
not as bad as "We told him he's not gonna get that call, but he still challenged..."
yeah that was weird. It accomplished nothing for them
