On Saturday, February 15th, Washington D.C. had something to finally brag about when it came to football.— The Defenders. True to their name, the Defenders shut out the Guardians of New York in the XFL’s second week of games. In what I thought and hoped would be a great shootout, Cardale Jones proved to be too much for the Guardians’ defense to handle. Jones threw for 276 yards, completed over 62% of his passes and ran for 14 yards as well. He trew for 2 TDs and an interception.
The DC defenders were all over quarterback Matthew McGloin and Marquise Williams as well. They didn’t even throw over 100 yards combined against DC, which gives much credit to what looks like the team to beat in the Defenders.
Cardale Jones looks like the MVP of the league so far if they actually give a trophy like that in the XFL.
