REMARKS: Quarterback Mike Bercovici gets rocked by big hit in Alliance of American Football debut

“There’s three or four plays early I would love to have back, We just never were able to string things together . . . It’s a good learning experience for us, and we’re going to keep fighting.”
“He has to get better, That’s the bottom line. I could sit here and talk about a number of things. But he just has to get better. Has to settle down, has to get better.”
“Eventually, it’s going to happen, We’re just the first to do it.”
“I bet it’s something that we see ultimately find its way to the NFL, You’re talking about a camera over the top of the players capturing the all-22 (video). It’s the ultimate eye-in-the-sky. I think it’s something that’s going to be really innovative.”
Former ASU QB Mike Bercovici that just took a hit that rocketed his helmet off, and if it happened in college football would've probably resulted in 13 penalties.

Well Christian Hackenberg still hasn’t been responsible for his team scoring a single point in a professional football game.

Former #Jets QB Christian Hackenberg AAFL debut over. Memphis put in Brandon Silvers down 20-0 in the fourth.

Hackenberg finished 10 of 23 for 87 yards with an INT. Threw a gorgeous TD, but had it called back because of a formation penalty.

How poetic is it that the very first touchdown of the AAF league came via the league’s review system using common sense in ways the NFL does not because of their own rules pic.twitter.com/lKaLplSNHg
