Was wondering how long it would be before some turd tried to turn this into a bash Dak thread.
It was meant for fun, you have no problem bashing former players constantly, thought I would add to your post but your Dak hyper sensitivity just will not allow you laugh at his average play . Calling names what a surprise your standard MO, really sad..

It’s really not that bad. It’s the best attempt they’ve made at this so far. Production values have been very good.

We should all root for it to do well honestly. Much like minor league baseball or the G League, there’s an audience and demand here, just needs the right amount of funding and support.

I actually like the idea of it maybe growing into a NFL developmental league much like the minors in baseball/G League for basketball.

The original XFL cheerleaders would be a nice addition :)

The kickoff rule is one the NFL should look at. I think the XFL is on to something here.

Rahim Moore is the former Broncos safety who looked like a little league right fielder on a deep pass by Flacco which enables the Ravens to upset the Broncos in the playoffs a few years ago.

Dude just got juked for a TD in the XFL.

I am curious how they would be able to do an onside kick like that though.

The NFL is looking to at replacing onside kicks with a 4th and 15 situation down the road anyway. They set it as a rule for the probowl this season. Not sure if/when they will do anything with it though...

https://www.masslive.com/patriots/2...eplace-onside-kick-with-4th-down-attempt.html

"2) “Team A may elect to take the ball at its own 25-yard line for a fourth-and-15 play.”

This is a significant change here. In this scenario, a team would have the option to give the ball to its offense rather than try an onside kick, a play that’s become less and less successful in recent years due to rule changes.

If the “kicking” team records a first down, they can keep the ball. If not, the play is treated like a normal turnover on downs and the opponent gets the ball on whatever yard-line the play finishing on."

Waiting for the LA game. Before I even watch this stuff I'm sure it's garbage and it'll never amount to shhhh.
