The Big Splendas came out flat in their game against a Dragons team that was looking for revenge from last season.
2017 MVP Mike Boone was quoted saying ” We couldn’t find our feet. We played the shits but we’ll learn from it and come back strong next game.”

The second game saw the Hitmen and their speedy QB Matt Brett run all over the Rushers for a 32-0 thumping. It was a trial by fire for the Rusher rookie team that couldn’t put together a scoring drive all game.
