Between NBA All-Star Weekend, the Daytona 500, WWE’s Elimination Chamber, MLB spring training coverage, and an Elvis Presley concert tribute special, there was only one thing that could quench a true-blooded sport fan’s thirst during the mid-February lull in the calendar:

Week 2 of the Alliance of American Football.

How did the AAF follow up it’s debut which racked up the ratings? Why, four games featuring come back victories, including another Alamodome thriller, of course. With the young league still evolving, get familiar with the players and teams, and come along for the ride.

Orlando Apollos (2-0) 37, San Antonio Commanders (1-1) 29

Sunday’s slate began with the week’s best matchup, and saw the Orlando Apollos scored 20 straight points, including 17 in the fourth quarter, to stay undefeated. San Antonio had a 12-point lead after former Cowboys LB Jayrone Elliott strip-sacked Orlando QB Garrett Gilbert, allowing DT Joey Mbu record the scoop and score. But from there on out, it was all-Apollos.

The game’s deciding score came on a pick-six, as CB Keith Reaser intercepted San Antonio QB Logan Woodside and returned it 39-yards for the touchdown.

It was the most exciting game of the week that unfortunately didn’t end in the Commander’s favor. WR DeMarcus Ayers was a bright spot however, recording five catches for 80 yards.

Full Highlights:

Birmingham Iron (2-0) 12, Salt Lake Stallions (0-2) 9

RB Trent Richardson was the Iron’s leading rusher (41 yards) and receiver (50 yards), as Birmingham came back in the second half to improve to 2-0. After being shutout through nearly three quarters, a special teams score busted the game open, and brought the Iron back from the dead.

As a team, Birmingham recorded only 216 yards of offense, but it’s signature defense kept them in the game. Richardson’s two-yard touchdown run with less than five minutes left in the fourth quarter was the game’s deciding score.

For the Stallions, it was certainly a game of missed opportunities. Salt Lake remain winless while blowing a 9-0 lead, losing two fumbles, and missing three field goals. The Stallions did at least score its first touchdown of the season, on an RB Joel Bouagnon three-yard score.

The Iron next face Atlanta, while the Stallions continue to search for their first win against Arizona.

Full Highlights:

Arizona Hotshots (2-0) 20, Memphis Express (0-2) 18

The Hotshots overcame a sloppy start to comeback and stun the Mike Singletary-led Memphis Express, becoming the first AAF team to win on the road. Arizona was led by it’s ground game, recording 209 rushing yards.

However, it was Express RB Zac Stacy who became the first AAF player to record over 100 rushing yards in a game. Stacy nearly matched QB Christian Hackenberg’s passing total (102), but Hackenberg did find the end zone with with is legs scoring from four yards, which he paid for dearly..

Memphis will look to rebound next week against the Apollos.

Full Highlights:

San Diego Fleet (1-1) 24, Atlanta Legends (0-2) 12

Week 2’s nightcap again featured a comeback, as the San Diego Fleet earned the first win of the season behind two fourth quarter touchdowns. It wasn’t the most crisp of games, but it did feature this bizarre Gavin Escobar reception.

….how? This may be the craziest completion ever. pic.twitter.com/6Ilyd9Sysz — CBS Sports (@CBSSports) February 18, 2019

Atlanta again struggled to do much offensively, mustering only one touchdown and a pair of field goals. They look to break into the win column next week against the Iron.
