The Tampa Bay Vipers haven’t exactly set the world on fire through their first three halves of XFL Football. And head coach and general manager Marc Trestman is already coming under fire from fans.
It doesn’t help that three different quarterbacks have taken a snap for the #FangGang already, but the way Quinton Flowers has been ushered in and out of games is certainly frustrating to those watching at home. And many have taken to Twitter to relay their thoughts with #FireTrestman and other hashtags.
It's an embarrassment that Quinton Flowers isn't the starter for Tampa yet. #FireTrestman

Last week I got ratio'd for using the #FireTrestman on the XFL page but I'm sure I'll need it again today

It’s not just the random fans: some Verified Twitter has gotten in on the act too.
I see the @XFLVipers would prefer to NOT gain yards on offense, lol. Maybe put the only QB that moved the offense back in the game...

The Vipers lead 3-0 at halftime of this pretty bad football game, but it’s pretty bad when the fans are calling for the leadership’s head when they somehow still wining a game.
For a team with its home opener next Saturday in Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, they’ll probably want to score some points and win this game against the Seattle Dragons to increase the fan happiness before their in-city debut.
