- Jarveon Howard (RB) – 134 rushing yards, 44.7 yards per game, 1 TD

Game Outlook
The Battlehawks have the offensive firepower to challenge Arlington’s stingy defense. If Perez can continue his high completion rate and Saylors dominates on the ground, St. Louis could control the tempo. However, Arlington’s defense has been suffocating, and if Wilkins can limit turnovers, the Renegades could pull off the upset.
With St. Louis favored by 1 point, expect a tight, defensive battle with playoff implications early in the season.
St. Louis Battlehawks – 1.5
Arlington Renegades 39.5
