The Monday double headers did a lot for some of th playoff pictures. The Baltimore Hawks came into Monday needing a split to put them on track for the playoffs. The games that they had on Monday were certainly on opposite ends of the spectrum. They had one game that was incredibly difficult, and they had one game that was incredibly easy. The first game was an absolute must win against the basement dwelling Las Vegas Legion who they got to face at home in Baltimore. The second game was a lot tougher. They had to go on the road to face the very tough Arizona Outlaws.
The games went about what the neutral fan would expect. The Hawks got to start with the easy game against the Legion. In that game the Hawks absolutely dominated. They were amazing in the passing game, running game, blocking, rush defense, pass rush, and pass coverage. That lead to an absolutely dominant win for the Hawks. the Arizona game was the opposite. The Hawks were worse than the Outlaws in the passing game, running game, blocking, rush defense, pass rush, and pass coverage.
This put the Hawks in great position to be a playoff team. The Hawks magic number is 1, needing a win or a Philly loss to clinch a spot in the playoffs. 222
