I really hope they use all this momentum to market in the 8 cities! It's awesome that there getting more and more partnerships, but they need to get some more love from each of the cities next year!
If Martinez does badly and Holz doesn't remove him then the Stallions deserve to lose as sticking with a QB that is injured or playing badly is how a coach defeats his own team. I don't think the Brahmas will play better because Philips wants the win or needs it and that the Stallions learned a lot from losing to the Brahmas' earlier. I think this could go either way based on the coaching decisions of Holtz as it's really his game to lose as if he is on his game as a coach, he's got this win almost guaranteed. But, that's a big if after the game last week where he left Martinez in the game when he was clearly playing subpar football and it proved Holtz will stick with a bad QB longer than he should. Martinez had an excellent season but we've seen this many times before where a great QB suddenly slumps and if the coach is a good one, he'll pull that QB... but if the coach isn't a good one but fortunate to have the team that they have, they'll leave that QB in too long and cost themselves the game. So it falls on Holtz decision making based on how Martinez plays as you cannot rely on the team compensating and being lucky that the opposing team is just as bad like what we saw with the Panthers who absolutely dominated the first quarter last week but then began playing like Birmingham by turning the ball over repeatedly which allowed the Stallion to recover enough to make the game look like a massacre when they were just licky as hell.
@@ZombPhoxUFL if last week was any example, that leash will be way too long and we've seen great teams ruined by this type of decision making. I again point to the 80s Bears under Ditka where over and over he went conservative and held his offense back when they got ahead giving other teams like the 49ers the ability to catch up and beat them. That team should be remember for more than a few of it's players personalities but at least they did get one Super Bowl out of it. People tend to forget that Ditka didn't create that defense and was given orders he couldn't touch it. He was a defensive genius but always got put in charge of the offense on the teams he coached.
Question to all Battlehawk fans who went to the game, who were you rooting for? Did you root for the Stallions because you hate the Brahmas for knocking you out of the playoffs or did you just root for the XFL division to win?
Brahmas have been doubted ,underdogs and disrespected ALL …the final middle finger to all will be ….winning the whole damn thing….count on it ….just like I said from day ONE!
