Blogging the Brigade (2nd Half)

Well, I was sitting around this afternoon watching the Kansas City Brigade's first ever playoff game. It is Wild-Card Weekend in the Arena League and the Chiefs Brigade are playing the Colorado Crush (I hate their colors almost as much as those Donkeys). So I have decided to blog the 2nd half for anyone that is as bored as I am on a Saturday afternoon. Did I mention that I am under a tornado and flash flood warning where I live? That's the fun part about living in Missouri.
First Half Recap:
The Brigade started off slow in the first quarter, trailing 16-7. It was looking like the Brigade might lose for the third time this season to the Crush. Then in the 2nd quarter things started to come around for the offense and they put up 21 points to lead in the game 28-23. The Brigade could have added another touchdown before the half, but failed to convert on third-down. They decided to try a field-goal which hit the uprights bounced out. Score at half is 28-23.
Did anyone else hear Raymond Philyaw say the f-word after the failed 3rd-down conversion?
Well lets get to the 2nd Half:
Head Coach Kevin Porter gives some encouraging words to his team before the 2nd Half saying, "Last week was just a concept, now it's a reality."
3rd QTR
Brigade Ball - Brigade gets the ball to start the 2nd Half. Right off the bat Raymond Philyaw completes two quick passes downfield and they are already in Crush territory. Philyaw completes another pass to bring it to the 5-yard line.
Then for some reason the Brigade decide to go for two running plays and can't convert making it 4th and inches. What the HELL is this? Porter is deciding to kick a field goal.
GREAT! The Kicker (I won't dare say his name after this) misses another field-goal.
Colorado Crush's Ball - The Crush have a few successful plays and that gets them around the Brigade's 25. Then on 3rd and 3, QB John Dutton completes a touchdown pass to WR Damian Harrell (the fourth best WR in AFL this season). Making the score 30-28 .
3rd QTR 8:01
Brigades Ball - Possible rookie of the year Charles Fredrick has a decent return to the 18. 1st down is a quick pass to WR Anthony Hines and then on 2nd down Philyaw completes a first down.
(I love how the AFL talks to their coaches during the game. Think that would ever happen in the NFL? lol)
Great! Another Tornado Warning and I can't watch the game! The Brigade were at about the 11 yard line going in to score and then the most annoying sound in the world started. Well, bare with me while I deal with this...
OK, we are back! 3rd and goal, the Brigade has to take a timeout. Probably a good decision because the last two redzone attempts failed on 3rd-down. Maybe they want to consider a plan other than kicking on 4th down too. I mean this is arena football, do field goals really win you games?
On 3rd-down Philyaw throws too far and the WR runs right into the wall. I love seeing that. The Brigade decides to go for it on 4th-down. Philyaw snaps the ball and men are all in his face so he tosses it up and it goes way out of bounds. Man, the Brigade are playing very poorly in the redzone. They might want to consider calling something different because whatever they are doing is not working.
3rd QTR 2:25
Crush Ball - Dutton completes two short yardage passes that get them a first-down.
WR Brad Pyatt takes the AFL head start and has his man beat, Hutton puts it in his hands and he DROPS THE TD! The next play Pyatt is wide open again in the endzone and he fails to catch the touchdown again. It is now 3rd down and 10 from about midfield.
Start of the 4th
QB Hutton completes the first down to his go-to-man Damian Harrell. 1st down from the 16 and the complete the pass to Pyatt for about 7 yards. 2nd and three. On 2nd-down pass interference is called on the Brigade giving the Crush an automatic first down. On first down Hutton completes another touchdown pass to increase their lead to 8. The kicker comes in and misses the EP, keeping the deficit at eight for the Brigade. Score is now 36-28 , 12:30 left in the 4th.
