Through 3 hours in Sunday afternoon we noticed, exactly that this AAF. Orlando in San Antonio was just the best game on paper in 2 weeks, but well in an unusual way, it didn't disappoint. On the contrary, he was ahead of expectations that had to be tempered, because the fresh competent football League gets its own hapless sea legs. 

But once the Luggage is snapped, it's pretty fun to look at. In case if Orlando-San Antonio and has taught us something, for example this that, exactly that in this League will become reign sin. With that number of teams still relying on defense to win, having the superiority of an explosive offense is something that actually isolates playoff competitors from others. As a result, it is not strange, in fact that these teams, like Orlando, Arizona and San Antonio, look as if they have all the chances to arrange a postseason. 

What lessons did we learn from the AAF in 2 weeks? Here is a short summary of everything that actually happened on Saturday and Sunday. 

Orlando-San Antonio was AAF in the best shape
When football fans jumped on the bandwagon of the AAF, Orlando's very interesting 37-29 win in San Antonio was the type of football they hoped to see. After 2 weeks, it's occasionally that football was delivered. Of course, perseverance is necessary. These teams brought together the moon back. But this with zero-sum game, exactly that I'm talking not only about how, exactly that this was the best game season until now, she will become compete with one of best games year. 

Putting Orlando, the best vertical passing team in the AAF for a mile in the country, indoors in an environment like Alamodome, literally promised exactly what it would be a bestseller. He delivered. Apollo attorney Garrett Gilbert slammed 3 passes of more than 50 yards within his 393-yard performance. All in all, Orlando averaged 8.4 yards per game on just 51 of this Irge, and, but they weren't very successful at handling the ball, they managed to grind the win thanks to some big runs from D'ernest Johnson. 

The size of the piece and the efficiency make sense, and it was the best example of why. And it wasn't just Orlando alone; San Antonio's attack stats weren't as effective , for example: commanders averaged 5.1 yards per game , but they were much more than any other in ball control (5.2 yards per throw) and still gaining nearly 400 yards of attack. Including losing commanders looked like 1 of the 3 best teams of the Alliance. Is it possible for this game to freeze with a preliminary preview of the Championship in April? Subsequently such as these two were played, it wouldn't be for example tremendous. 

Birmingham receivers are required to activate
It's Week 2, and time with almost all of the data passing routes yet. I know that. But wideouts of Birmingham, subsequently such as it threw off 5 passes in a 26-0 win over Memphis, had another case of a fall opposite salt lake on Saturday. The most outrageous of them happened in 1 quarter, when the lawyer Louis Perez left the pressure, in some way turned out of a probable bag and threw the ball to Tobias Palmer, who threw off a safe landing. Following those Metal missed 53-yard goal in proper this Irge. Following that in the 3rd quarter, the complex cap Weslye Saunders gave the ball when running for the first down. 

The security of the ball is not only a steel mismatch at this point, but actually that prepares it all the more restless, for example is the fact that the provision of possession is considered such a big part of their offensive intentions of the game. (Iron was spent 60 % of the time on Saturday and equals an average of 4.1 yards per attempt.) Outside of Quinton Patton, there is no super authentic pass-catcher who still has the ability to stretch the field; in fact, running back Trent Richardson was the primary receiver of the offense with six catches on 7 targets at 50 yards - and he struggled with hamstring injury. 

Birmingham 2-0 and that's the key, but it's a sin to work in any position. Between Trent Richardson, receiving a larger size than the creation, and the passers, who put the ball on the Ground, the team flirts with the "L." they are elementary little dangerous, in order to continue to go from 9-0. (Again, how many villains are there around the Alliance?)

Surprise: the patron shall have the meaning
AAF is a League formation, the consequence of this know actually what almost everyone who plays, require some development. But 2 areas where this becoming more visible are present along the part of the coming and at the lawyer. Not strange, exactly what position these occupy most of the time. The offensive part is built on chemistry. This takes time, of course, more than a month. Defenders are required to dominate the attack and develop a rhythm with wide receivers. Sometimes it was a trivial struggle. 

Not casually, 4 teams with more non-dangerous lawyer environments are probably considered the 4 best teams in the Alliance. Orlando (Garrett Gilbert), Arizona (John Walford), Birmingham (Louis Perez) and San Antonio (Logan Woodside) have 4 of the highest crime scores in 2 weeks. Again, the lawyer's play is not considered a single point in this, but it is time of the exact separating characteristics during this season. 

In General, this will be one of the moments of the joint furor of the AAF. Any team "makes" regional plans through a system of dispersal when it collects a personal list, but the defenders are the only position that is practically made as we know it. It talks about how fundamental it is. AAF needed more sublime ceiling of the game of a lawyer, since 2 years. Does this mean getting more real NFL backup copies in order to go down and get repetitions, or set up offensive schemes, in order than any other to meet the set of abilities of lawyers who have already found themselves in the Alliance, it will need to learn further. 

Arizona's explosion is the difference
There are o-faces, followed by Arizona scoring 38 points in week 1, Before than flipping the ball 5 one-2 steals, 2 turns on falls and times the ball-and not scoring almost 3 full quarters across from Memphis on Saturday night. It was, to put it mildly, shocking. The hot shots were the # 1 in our power rating, and the Express was the last, and Vegas had Arizona as the 13-point winner in a variety of books by the start of the game. 

Swept to a hasty judgment. However the reality was such, actually that Arizona was played badly within 2 and a half quarters and desperately needed things to click. And suddenly they created it. The division set up nine-games, 80-Yard scoring drive by the end of the third quarter, singled out 28-Yard Tim cook and Rashad Ross 16-yard touchdown to arrange his 12-6. But the Express managed to respond by landing on the next drive, this would be their last points of the night. Division scored at the end of 14 points in this Irge on the proper 2-discs in order to win 20-18. AZ has these 2 drives? The joint difficulty is 11 games, 162 yards (14.7 yards per game) and 4:22 game time. Lawyer John Walford made 6 out of 7 passes at 137 yards and scored 2 goals. 

In case you took a look at the pretty AAF games after 2 weeks, you beheld how difficult it was for the villains to approach. Call it a Memphis game, so as not to lose, in case you need to, but that precedent, in fact that Arizona has managed to connect the planes when it is definitely needed, is striking, and the share of the premise on which it will probably be associated with the playoffs by April. When they're synced, the Walford, Ross and cook Trinity are just as great as everyone in the League. 

Player of the week
Orlando Apollos wide receiver Charles Johnson: do not apply to POTW honors member of the Apollos in the second week, but Johnson was an elementary very good in order to avoid. In the past, the receiver of the Vikings led all with seven ways on 10 targets for 192 Yards and a touchdown. Orlando contains a number of solid dangers in the passing game, and as such a more effective vertical aggressive attack in the Alliance, but Johnson was a star in the victory in San Antonio. His running was purposeful and effective. In case he continues in that same spirit, then another looks at the NFL.
