If you saw last weeks Tampa Bay Vipers opening XFL game versus the Guardians, you’d know why picking them to lose this game against the Dragons of Seattle was easy. Watching the Vipers offensive play led by quarterback Taylor Cornelius was sad to say the least. He threw for 2 interceptions, including the last play of the game when the Vipers showed some hope of scoring a touchdown on offense.
Tampa Bay led first with a field goal and a pick six off Seattle QB Brandon Silvers’ throw that landed on Dragons’ cornerback Tarvarus McFadden’s hands and he took care of the rest. But just when the Tampa Bay Vipers had a ray of light in the first half, Seattle finally settled down and scored 17 unanswered points. It started with Brandon Silvers’ 68 yard TD throw to Keenan Reynolds and just kept on going.
Based on what I’ve seen so far from Tampa Bay, they do seem to the weakest link. I definitely the Los Angeles wildcats do not follow them tomorrow against the Dallas renegades.
Over 29,000 fans attended the game which was a lot of fun to watch. here’s hoping the league and the Vipers survive.
