Dallas Renegades

Bob Stoops and his Dallas Renegades got into the win column Sunday. They were not impressive in downing Los Angeles. Landry Jones threw for more than 300 yards in a performance that showed plenty of rust. Hard to buy into Dallas, which has a minus-one TD mark. The team will have to improve dramatically. A risky proposition at 5-1.
