Coaches love to use the phrase “leave it all on the field” when talking about effort for a team. Unfortunately for the Pittsburgh Power (3-7), Julian Talley left it on the field a little too often as his two fumbles helped derail a solid effort by the Power in a 70-48 loss to the Jacksonville Sharks (8-3). Looking at the final stat line on GameTracker shows Julian Talley finished the night with 12 receptions for 117 yards and four receiving touchdowns but it was the two fumbles that don’t ... Read More
Pittsburgh Power Come From Behind To Defeat Cleveland 55-44
A long time coming. That sentence sums up the wait for Pittsburgh Power fans who had not seen the Power (3-6) win a game at home in over a year. It all changed tonight after a kickoff return by Chris LeFlore helped lead to 27 unanswered points in the 4th quarter as the Power won 55-44 win over the Cleveland Gladiators (2-7).

Where is Christopher Lloyd when you need him?

It might make for a feel-good Disney movie called “Angels In The ... Read More

He did only complete 54.3% of his passes and had an ... Read More
New Faces Could Take The Pittsburgh Power Places
Nothing has been more of a glaring need for the Pittsburgh Power (2-5) during the last two seasons of football than a quarterback. Many have tried, many have failed. The problem has always been trying to fit rookies into the starting lineup when experience is needed. Pittsburgh’s newest quarterback, Steven Sheffield, may not have gotten much playing time in the past but he has spent several seasons learning the AFL game from the bench. Last year in San Antonio he had the luxury of watching ... Read More
