Week 9 UFL Game Summaries (May 23–25, 2025)

Friday, May 23

St. Louis Battlehawks 39, San Antonio Brahmas 13
Location: The Dome at America’s Center, St. Louis, MO

Summary: The Battlehawks dominated the Brahmas, scoring five touchdowns and accumulating 402 total yards. Quarterback Max Duggan led the first half before backups took over. A highlight was Micah Abraham’s 70-yard fumble return for a touchdown. The Brahmas struggled defensively, allowing St. Louis to score on nearly every drive.

Saturday, May 24

Arlington Renegades 30, Memphis Showboats 12
Location: Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium, Memphis, TN

Summary: After a three-hour weather delay, the Renegades secured a convincing win over the Showboats. Quarterback Luis Perez connected with Tyler Vaughns for a touchdown, and the defense capitalized on turnovers to build an early lead. Memphis managed only 12 points, struggling to keep pace with Arlington’s offense.

Birmingham Stallions 26, Michigan Panthers 22
Location: Protective Stadium, Birmingham, AL

Summary: In a closely contested game, the Stallions edged out the Panthers. Both teams, already playoff-bound, showcased their strengths in this potential conference championship preview. Birmingham’s balanced attack and timely defense secured the victory, moving them into a tie with Michigan atop the USFL Conference.

Sunday, May 25

Houston Roughnecks 24, D.C. Defenders 21
Location: TDECU Stadium, Houston, TX

Summary: The Roughnecks upset the Defenders in a thrilling game. Houston’s defense made key plays, including a 99-yard return of a failed PAT by linebacker Marvin Moody. Quarterback Jalan McClendon led the offense efficiently, and the Roughnecks held off a late surge by D.C. to secure the win.

7 pressures given up on 33 Pass block attempts in 2024.... Opponent had a 31% Win rate against Arcuri ....... Flagged for 2 penalties on the 33 attempts, 1 declined.

PFF grades at 1.9 ......

This has got to be the lowest grade I have seen for any player, ever

I appreciate his effort and work put in, but the Rams have to be on the market for another Tackle before training Camp.

A few years ago, the Rams sucked at short yardage. It drove me nuts.

I’m so glad that the Rams fixed the Oline and they have a RB with elite vision.

This starts at around 4:30 and lasts to around 17:00

They are talking about rookie individual defensive players (IDP) for dynasty leagues and the first name they bring up is Dolac. The other guy likes Paul. Then one of them has an interesting take on Stewart.

Maybe not the only reason...but I think part of the reason we didn't draft a CB.

"What's happening Norm?"

"Its a dog eat dog world Sammy and I'm wearing Milk Bone underwear."

Rest in Peace George Wendt. Cheers would have not been the same without you.

As I'm born and raised in the UK, I havnt been exposed to American sports teams like you guys have.

I'm wondering what sports teams do you follow other than the obvious Rams?

Other football teams in other leagues, college etc
Basketball, baseball, lacrosse?
Why?

The Rams finished 2024 averaging 21.6 PPG. When looking at the last 8yrs, our points per game trend shows a decline.

Compared to the NFL average, we haven’t been elite the last few years.

Data below.

I think Adams and Ferguson will be excellent additions. I also like the potential of 12 personnel as a “shake up” to the offense.

Sean McVay’s offense has infiltrated the league from coaching turnover. That’s certainly not helped.

We don’t have a stud like Gurley at RB as we did in 2017 and 2018.

In recent seasons, Kupp declined and there have been injuries.

Is Stafford in decline? I don’t think so, but with data like this everything is on the table.

Have we done enough to beef up our offense? Our Superbowl aspirations depend on it!



2017: 29.9 PPG
2018: 32.9 PPG
2019: 24.6 PPG
2020: 23.3 PPG
2021: 27.1 PPG
2022: 18.1 PPG
2023: 23.8 PPG
2024: 21.6 PPG

I hope you all are making it through these tornados and terrible storms.

Check in when you can.

According to Sports Illustrated

none other then your Center Point-Urbana Stormin Pointers !!!!!

or , Stormin Norman

the schools nickname is the Stormin Pointers , but the mascots name is Norman

yea , I never heard of them either , they're from Eastern Iowa , the opposite side of the state from where I'm from

so..........

I had to Google them

they used to , like most schools in Iowa now , separate schools , but ended up having to consolidate

they used to be the Center Point Pointers and the Urbana Cyclones , so when they consolidated , they changed their name to Stormin Pointers , the mascot of a Pointer riding a Cyclone..................lol

i watched a podcast/vid or whatever as the sched was released and mcvay and snead were going over each game as they got it...

not sure if it was a recast of the actual release, but i thought it was as it happened....

is anything like that happening this year? is it on the rams site?

go rams

slo

We released Defensive Lineman David Olajiga 6'3"/315 with no recall.
We must be feeling pretty good about our newbies, 5th rounder Ty Hamilton 6'3"/300, Bill Norton a 6'6"/335 UDFA and Da'Jon Terry a 6'3"/330 pounder UDFA.

Said it in plain English, not player-speak.

Disagree with all of those players aside from Shoeless Joe suddenly being eligible. There's not even proof of him being guilty; just a desperate Hail Mary from another Black Sox member to lessen his own punishment.

Rose made a mockery of the game, gambling as a player and manager, betting on his own games and was completely unrepentant until he died. I don't even care that he's also a terrible person because while I understand that being a terrible person and a great player is not mutually exclusive, him gambling from the start until he got banned and being unrepentant about that is not HOF worthy. Make a plaque about the hits leader, but with an asterisk.

The rest of the Black Sox should've never been unbanned. Completely unrepentant about their role and they threw Jackson under the bus when he had the best series out of the entire team and likely never was a part of the plan.

I've never been to an NFL game at the new Wembley (I was living in the US when the Rams had all those games), and I'm not at all sure what to do/expect.

So any advice (not about London, I've been there scores of times) about attending games and getting tickets would be welcome.

I've only been to the new Wembley once (to see Derby lose the playoff final, so not a happy day), so I'm excited to see the Rams there.

Who else will be going for sure?

Changing the game everywhere congrats to the young couple announcing this on Mothers Day
