JaVonta Payton down after the first offensive play. Not great for the Renegades!

He's holding his arm steady, maybe shoulder or collarbone injury. :(

Yeah, certainly doesn't look like he'll return.

Woof. Giving Ahlers his first snap on a 3rd-and-3?

Did not end well. Hopefully they give him another shot.

On the other hand, that was a perfect play call off of a sudden change in opponent territory. Get a defense, already on their heels, to buy into the eye candy of the fake reverses.

Yes, I  love that they went to Stoops for an explanation on the Ahlers play. This is what I love about this league, with that kind of access.

Be just the league's luck that the Renegades win here, and the Brahmas end the streak, meaning next week at the Dome will be for home field.

A game that should have been flipped with Curbuck/Flop, aka one of the games in UFL history.

A good thing for Stoops and the gang that Garibay made that second field goal attempt after tossing away his first kick. But, taking the first down was the correct decision, you just wondered if it would bite them in the rear with all the bad luck Arlington seems to have.
