Dragons up 9-0 so far.

Watching it rooting for Seattle because no one I hate more in sports than Greg Williams. He’s a living breathing PoS

I’ll like the 35 second play clock

I am really interested in this and want to watch...but don't have cable. It looks like there are YouTube highlights of each of the games, so I'll be going there later tonight for the Sea Dragons.
I might even try to go to a game if possible.

Why did they run it there? Dumb call.

Gridiron football is the kind of sport we only need one mega league in. Just my imo. Can't get into it.

That doesn't sound very sporting.

You must be a real hit at parties.

I was so bummed I missed it. Completely clueless that today was their first game. And I am not paying 9.99 a month for ESPN+ just to watch the replay. I’ll wait until their next game Thursday when it’s on regular ESPN.

It’s fun to root on another Seattle football team. Go Dragons!

Saw the game. It's just so fun to watch. It's not the bore fest that the NFL can be sometimes. I liked how the Sea Dragon's game came right down to the wire. DaNucci didn't really help the team win the game with his panicked style of play in the 2nd half. He played fairly well on the first two drives of the game. It's clear to me that ball security isn't a point of empathis in DaNucci's game. It will be now, because of that careless fumble on the 1 yerd line that essentially cost them the game.

But overall, it's refreshing to watch for fans of the sport. My son has a love for the game as he plays the sport himself, and we watched today's game and talked football.

I tried to watch it, I just can’t. Kickoff idea is interesting is the best thing I can say about the game.

 

[AROS]

It’s actually solid football. I love that.

Watched a bit of the second quarter and thought they did nicely moving the chains on the one drive, though it resulted in no points since the 40-yard FG attempt went wide left. I know none of the players and am a bit embarassed by the cartoonish "S" dragon on the helmets, but glad Seattle once again has an XFL team.

Any chance the forum name can be updated to include "Sea" since they're now the Sea Dragons?

DiNucci sucks. It's unfortunate that the Dragons got stuck with him as their QB.

Can't really put too much on him. As was stated multiple times during the broadcast, these guys have had basically a month to play together and prepare. Not sure how you would get even an NFL-level group of guys all on the same page and execute an offense in that time let alone these second tier guys. I feel like right now the defenses have a huge advantage on plays where they are just getting after the QB.

I'll never get why they dumped their 2020 logo...It was MUCH better! More professional. Really, really odd.

The Seattle Dragons logo was cool. This knew one looks like a grade schooler drew it. Glad they ditched the white helmets though.

Horrible QB play and even worse play calling. While the games have been pretty entertaining, they have NO business being 0-2. Literally gave both games away.
The team in general played VERY sloppy last night. Am I expecting too much from these guys? Absolutely.

But, I'm invested in it now. I can't stand losing, regardless what level the team. I can handle losing if they play a great game and fight til the end. I can't handle sloppy play and handing games away. This team should be 2-0, period.
Oh well, bonus football.
