    So far I'm enjoying what I'm seeing with faster play clock so you see less showboating and pointless scuffles because they have to hurry up and run the next play....the communication audio you can actually listen to between coaches and players....no kick off returns keeps the game flow going

    I watched. Enjoyed seeing the Ol' ball coach run his trick plays. Atlanta and SD O lines were really bad. Keep an eye on that for future plays.

    Watched the San Diego game last night. I thought it was pretty good. I will be tuning in for sure every week.

    "Of course it looked good. It was scripted to appear as a high quality product. First impressions mean everything to degenerate gamblers. Now that they all think this is actually legit quality football, they will be sheep and lose all their money once the fix gets rigged."

    Not a bad opening ... first AAF game on CBS on Saturday night, ?averaged 2.913 million viewers..That's a lot of viewers..I'm sure they won't be able to hold that many viewers every week ....we'll have to wait and see if football fans liked it or were just curious ..

    By way of comparison, the NBA game on ABC drew 2.524 million viewers during that same 9-11 time slot..

    I know at times,, it did resemble the second half of NFL pre-season games...

    ..and they will never be as good or successful as the NFL... till they add more instant replay and constant reviews of plays,,male cheerleaders and players kneeling for the National Anthem,...

    No college, no NFL, so why not.
    I’m sure you all read about some of the rules but these are interesting 
    All players paid the same
    No kickoffs 
    No extra points
    No onside kicks
    If the trailing team wants an onside opportunity. They get the ball on their own 28 and it’s 4th and 12 If they convert they keep going 

    All players have 3 year $250K contracts But they encourage them to try for NFL

    A lot of these guys played in the NFL and if they were good enough they still would be, but since they are almost all 3rd tier players it levels the playing field  makes it interesting to watch so far.

    Trent Richardson is a RB again

    If the trailing team wants an onside opportunity. They get the ball on their own 28 and it’s 4th and 12 If they convert they keep going 

    All players have 3 year $250K contracts But they encourage them to try for NFL

    A lot of these guys played in the NFL and if they were good enough they still would be, but since they are almost all 3rd tier players it levels the playing field  makes it interesting to watch so far.

    Trent Richardson is a RB again

    I think the quality will improve once these guys practice and play more. I didn't have big expectations coming in so it's entertaining enough for now.

    They are definitely benefiting from the time of year they chose to schedule the games. Right now it seems the QB play is holding it back a bit, but that should improve with time. Player quality should improve every year too as the AAF can take all of the top-tier NFL draft/camp rejects.
