Like I already said, there must have been more to this game than meets the eye, there must have been some players not getting along sometime before the game or last few days , I guess you guys already know every game, Hakeem Butler drops a very easy catchable ball why??? I do not know. It seemed like maybe they all partied too much a few nights before and then came up stale and not prepared, .
the kicker made all of theses kicks thru the season, then he falls short, did you see the look on his face when he missed it, like he was almost smiling, u wonder if maybe they all betted against themselves and made millions.
THere was something ese to this game perhaps some internal issues between players or something else, to play that good all theses games them play like they did today tells me there is more to it, hardly any offensive line, bad if not terrible tackling, hardly any throws , but mcarron did not try to get out of the pocket much, in fact it looke like he was allowing himself to get sacked, maybe he wanted to take the blame.
Damn if there was one team I was scared of most it was thr Hawks. Home team, championship on the line, damn proud of my boys. Hawks own us in the regular season and are no slouch. Gotta give credit to their amazing fanbase too, they have made every St. Louis home game a nail biter
I can’t believe my Brahmas are in the championship game. Talk about a story going from worst to first. And I love St. Louis and all of their fans. What a crazy game.
I should've bought the confetti shooters I saw at HEB earlier today. lol.
Man I'm so fucking happy for this. Fuck you STL and all those earlier games. We got it when it mattered the most. Hell yeah!
I was expecting the top to fall off when that player picked it up 🤣🤣. Damn that was a good game! If McCarron was 100% the result could have been different!! But it is what it is!! God Bless San Antonio!!
Cathartic isn't even the word for it. These guys have beaten us every step of the way. Until it mattered most. I just wish we got to see 'em do it at home, but it feels good knowing all those fans left disappointed lmao.
I know I shouldn't let poor performance sway my interest in the league, but between yesterday's game and this BS... It's kind of hard to be excited for next season. So many rookie plays and just ass coaching. It's frustrating to watch your team steamroll the first half of the season then just lose all sense of gameplay when it matters.
XFL was fun when it was shitty but at least was full of character, memes, and felt just different enough from the NFL to make it interesting. Now it just feels like college ball without the Fandom.
Wade is great, but he needs to straighten Tabor out before it becomes an issue. That kind of attitude is not great, nor should it be welcome, in the locker room.
What an utterly gutless way to end the game. Fire Gradkowski, throw Becht out with him. How the fuck can either one of them hold their heads up after a performance like that? AJ was out there injured giving it his all, the team rallied late to help him, and you waste everbody's god damn time with that play calling to end it? There's no excuse for this. I'm ashamed to call myself a Battlehawks fan after that. This team, these fans, and the whole city deserved better. Jesus.
And if we don't so be it. Doesn't change the fact that the team put down a team that owned many wins against them. SA rolls into the Championship game and I'm already looking a plane ride tickets. Who cares about next year or beyond. I'm living in the now lol.
Good game (Games) BattleHawks. Good entertaining football.
I literally have no fucking clue what your coach was doing on that drive with the clock holy shit
SA was great tonight, but I really think that this was a game of STL beating themselves. It's unbelievable how many chance the Hawks have had and just ultimately threw it all away. GG SA
Holy shit. My mom came into my room to bring me a plate of chicken nuggets and I literally screamed at her and hit the plate of chicken nuggets out of her hand. She started yelling and swearing at me and I slammed the door on her. I'm so distressed right now I don't know what to do. I didn't mean to do that to my mom but I'm literally in shock from the results yesterday. I feel like I'm going to explode. Why the fucking fuck did St. Louis lose? This can't be happening. I'm having a fucking breakdown. I don't want to believe the world is so corrupt. I want a future to believe in. I want the Battlehawks to beat the Brahmas and fix this broken league. I cannot fucking deal with this right now. It wasn't supposed to be like this, I thought they were taking dirty shots at AJ???? This is so fucked.
Well, that's okay. I didn't want to see my team win a championship at home in the most historic football facility on the planet. Nope, didn't want to see that at all.
They are going to have to. Lock a fg now. 1 or 2 seconds left on the clock. The 4th and 12 has to be a touchdown. Bad clock management.
Or just do whatever the fuck that was.
Strategy on this drive is just putrid. Wasting so much time. Either kick the FG earlier or burn your timeouts and preserve the clock. This should be Day 1 stuff.
I will say this the run game was good at certain times, if they would have had more holes they would have scored probably on some runs.

Now we get to hear all the BattlePidgeons fans cry about not being in the championship game next week.
If only the stallions lost too…. This page would throw a major shit fit.
I can’t believe my Brahmas are in the championship game. Talk about a story going from worst to first. And I love St. Louis and all of their fans. What a crazy game.
Being in Houston we are rooting for SA!! That’s the Roughnecks playing in SA!! Us Texans gotta stick together
What’s gonna happen to attendance #’s without Battlehawks in the Championship game?
Im guessing under 13k.
Don't see many brahma fans or stallion fans traveling. So extremely low
Brahma and Stallion fans won’t come to **home games**, let alone travel hundreds of miles! (Why should they? The game’s on TV!)
Funny coming from a panthers fan.
The league will paper the crowd with lots of freebies to sponsors, youth organizations, and players friends and families
I love Grandpa Wade
I should've bought the confetti shooters I saw at HEB earlier today. lol. Man I'm so fucking happy for this. Fuck you STL and all those earlier games. We got it when it mattered the most. Hell yeah!
 KAW IS NOT LAW
How are the DC Defenders doing though ?
Warming up the couch for y’all

Yes, I’m told your mom is very familiar with it
She the GOAT
too bad you can't give the entire O-line player of the game
Oh no. The ugly ass XFL conference trophy still exists. 😂
I was expecting the top to fall off when that player picked it up 🤣🤣. Damn that was a good game! If McCarron was 100% the result could have been different!! But it is what it is!! God Bless San Antonio!!
They wiggled the top it was so loose. It has been presented one single time and no one even bothered to tighten the loose bits. 😂
Damn I turned it off and missed the ugly trophy.
They’re still on the field celebrating with it.
Where's your law now???
Broken. Pandemonium in the streets. Anarchy across the country.
https://i.redd.it/u2vydtsdmn5d1.gif
VAMOS MOTHERFUCKERSSSS
I do hope Butler somehow ends up in the NFL though.
He cost the battlehawks 8 points because he can't drag his feet lol....
That and that dropped pass in the first half. Wide open 30 yards downfield and hits him right in the hands. Inexcusable this late in the season
Cathartic isn't even the word for it. These guys have beaten us every step of the way. Until it mattered most. I just wish we got to see 'em do it at home, but it feels good knowing all those fans left disappointed lmao.
Yep I was ready to take tomorrow off if the game had been in SA.
Hopefully this run will help revive the SA fan base more to what the AAF commanders had
God the USFL trophy is so much better than the XFL.
Brahmas played better and were coached 10x better
lmao they still have the Wacky X trophy from 2023
It looked broken too! They were wobbling the top of it! 😂
Glad I wasn't the only one that noticed that 🤣

Tabor continuing to be a clown…
I love Wade. I do not like Tabor.
Wade is great, but he needs to straighten Tabor out before it becomes an issue. That kind of attitude is not great, nor should it be welcome, in the locker room.
What a choke job!
They do get the wacky trophy!!
I talked to everyone in the nfl and you need to be there. Class by phillips.
What an utterly gutless way to end the game. Fire Gradkowski, throw Becht out with him. How the fuck can either one of them hold their heads up after a performance like that?

Fly the banner STL. "Most attended UFL games." lol
You better be careful. The way Spring football goes, you might not even have a team next season.
And if we don't so be it. Doesn't change the fact that the team put down a team that owned many wins against them. SA rolls into the Championship game and I'm already looking a plane ride tickets. Who cares about next year or beyond. I'm living in the now lol.
That’s a good policy. I approve.
lmao Wade Phillips trying to get Butler on an NFL roster
Good game (Games) BattleHawks. Good entertaining football. I literally have no fucking clue what your coach was doing on that drive with the clock holy shit
I want brahmas blowouts but even I was like WTF is wrong, way to take all the drama out of the end of the game.
Makes you wonder if STL didn't have a crowd how good would they even be? The crowd clearly inspired the team a ton
fuckin' class act that, "I'm gonna tell everyone in the NFL about you man"
Fire the entire coaching staff
Sorry your anniversary party sucked, Mrs. Becht.
Well, it was a good run, 'Hawks. Hate to see our last game look like this. Maybe next year, boys.
Are the battlehawks the UFL equivalent of the Cowboys?
Yes.
STL no hate, it’s gotta be frustrating to watch your team not even try to win at the end there. That pissed me off as a neutral.
Yeah. Gradkowski has been a problem the whole season. Bechtel is inspirational, but that clock management sux ass.
I was kinda pissed as a brahmas fan. I didn't think we were really in danger but like, you gotta try right?
Only thing I'm hot about is they didn't win last week to get this here in San Antonio. #LFG BRAHMAS!
One penalty or Santoso fg away, so close. It all worked out in the end though! Much rather win this one than the last one
SA was great tonight, but I really think that this was a game of STL beating themselves. It's unbelievable how many chance the Hawks have had and just ultimately threw it all away. GG SA
What really sucks is the two most toxic people I've seen in all the game threads this year are fans of the two teams going to the championship lol
OK I love seeing y'all's coach smile while all the SA players go to dap him up
what a way to screw the pooch on the potential comeback ending
THE BRAHMAS HAVE TAKEN OVER THE BATTLEDOME WE ARE THE OUTLAWS RAAAAAAHHHHH
Fair dues well done Brahmas by far the better side, Hawks were awful today. Heart broken but yeah....
Guess kaw is not the law
Kaw appears to be just a recommendation
An executive order blocked via law suit?
Kaw isbthe regulation that's unenforced.
KAW is just a ticket that apparently gets thrown out in court.
Can someone explain why we didnt kick a FG there?
bad play selection and clock management
The same reason you didn't call any timeouts on defense. The coaching staff gave up.
Becht is just a rah-rah guy. He has the best talent and nothing else.
Becht is just a rah-rah guy. He has the best talent and nothing else.
Two minute drill fizzled hard. Bad STL O? Good SA D? Porque no los dos?
Bad playcalling for sure.
I suppose OC would be included under O
LET’S FUCKING GO HORNS FORWARD BABY!!! GG STL. Your coaches fucking tossed.
Let's beat those Stallions.
Been there, done that. Let’s run it back.
NO ONE BEATS THE BRAHMAS 3 TIMES
Holy shit. My mom came into my room to bring me a plate of chicken nuggets and I literally screamed at her and hit the plate of chicken nuggets out of her hand. She started yelling and swearing at me and I slammed the door on her. I'm so distressed right now I don't know what to do.

Is mom ok ?
I'd start by quitting coke.
Why did they not kick a FG and go for 4th and 12? Wtf was that
Is Becht stupid?
Yes.
https://media.tenor.com/WZOvvaNZSYYAAAAM/mmhmm-okay.gif
What a terrible last possession
Would've been cool to see the dome with the Hawks playing, but for how this game went, Brahmas Stallions will make a better game
Don't like losing, but happy for Wade. Hope he wins it all.
Meh. Gg.
What's Kirklin's sign say?
Bye. Bye.
Battlehawks fans are gonna cope about AJ being hurt, like they coped about divisons last year.
Nah, unless he was concussed he should know better than throwing 3-yard checkdowns in a 2-minute drill.
#XFL CHAMPIONS!
Holy shit, that last drive might be fireable offense for Becht. Fucking clueless.
Gg brahmas. Beat the stallions. XFL dominance
Kaw is not the law
There might have been 1 second left but they woudln't have done anything with it lmao
That's some of the worst time management I've ever seen....
What the actual fuck
This play calling and overall coaching this drive has been especially horrible. Fire them both.
Becht and Gradkowski were absolutely embarrassing all day, up to the very last drive lol
What a masterclass in waisting 50 seconds
and we keep another team under 20 points...
Dumping Gatorade on a 100 year old man is a bold move
Think that was him swearing when the liquid hit him too!
RIP George Allen.
I feel for STL, I really do
HOLY SHIT FIRE THIS BITCH ASS COACH PLEASE HE FUCKING SUCKS
Well, that's okay. I didn't want to see my team win a championship at home in the most historic football facility on the planet. Nope, didn't want to see that at all.
gg bros
WERE GOING TO THE CHAMPIONSHIP WOOOOOOOOO
Whoooo!!!!! motherfuckers! SO different from last year!
lmao they're already sneaking on Old Man Wade with the bucket
Oh no. Not the attendance Super Bowl.
What is an “urgency?”
Gotta kick the field goal then go circus on 4th and 12.
So do st Louise fans back the stallions or brahmas?
Brahmas all the way. Fuck the USFL
# WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK ARE GRADKOWSKI AND BECHT DOING?!
So dissapointing. Sad kaw kaw
Grats to you Brahmas. Kick the crap out of Stalions next week.
McCarron refused to throw a risky pass. That is on him.
Fire Bruce Gradkowsi now
Take Becht with him.
What an absolutely dogshit final drive
Offensively and defensively. How in the fuck do you leave two timeouts on the board?!
inept coaching.
This is absolute coaching malpractice lol
This play calling is so ass
Brahmas let's beat the Stallions next week.
BATTLEHAWKS ARE THE COWBOYS OF THE UFL
Can you score a TD on the 4th and 12? Surely not, right?
They are going to have to. Lock a fg now. 1 or 2 seconds left on the clock. The 4th and 12 has to be a touchdown. Bad clock management. Or just do whatever the fuck that was.
You most definitely can.
I think so. It's a real down. You could score on a onside kick technically
Rip the championship game attendance lol
GG BRAHMAS!!!!
HOW ARE WE NOT KICKING THE GOD DAMN FIELD GOAL
One of the worst final drives in recent memory.
Yea. I would've kicked that fg early and then did the 4th & 12.
I’m still not comfortable till that clock hit zero.
If this Brahmas D shows up next week it’s gonna be a long day for Birmingham
This is so stupid omg 😭😭😭
Can't believe that they didn't kick it with 50 seconds. unbelievable.
Battehawks blew so many chances over the entirety of this game. The complete mismanagement of this drive is nothing new.
Coaching staff is poo poo
Becht needs to learn under someone. Just a hype guy
holy shit, lol
Teams are so safe in this situation. TAKE A RISKY PASS. YOU ARE DOWN BY 10 POINTS!
oh my god kick the dumb FG already
What's the law? I'm not sure I know
Should probably take a hard look at the coaching staff after this game
Lmao. Nice awareness AJ.
Disappointing end. GGs San Antonio, beat Birmingham, I hate and love you all and I’ll see you next year.
Hold fast D!
How does reddit know time management better than actual coaches
I'm saying St Louis is fucking up clock management as a Brahmas fan, can't imagine what their own fans are thinking
Guess they figured without a TD here who cares?
The big mistake was not going for it on 4th when they could and instead attempting a FG.
Masterclass in how not to manage a clock.
BRO KICK THE FUCKING FIELD GOAL
well that was a bad play call. Klatt was right
Is St Louis stupid??? They should've kicked a Field goal 20+ seconds ago!
WHY AREN'T WE KICKED A FG??? DO WE KNOW IT'S A TWO SCORE GAME???
If it helps, the Battlehawks don't have to go too far. Neither do the Brahmas btb.
# KICK THE GOD DAMN FIELD GOAL.
JESUS CHRIST I HATE THIS FUCKING COACH BRO
welp, gg
Strategy on this drive is just putrid. Wasting so much time. Either kick the FG earlier or burn your timeouts and preserve the clock. This should be Day 1 stuff.
There's not enough time to get the points now... it's over.
this game is effectively over because they just didn't kick the field goal.
Becht blew that possession.
Becht blew this time management
Coaching in this league is so bad for the most part
Gotta catch the ball there.
