Love the Battlehawks but it is difficult to come away from this game feeling good about their chances in the playoffs! After losing the week before to a bad team St. Louis played a flat game at home even though their fans came out in full force to cheer them on. Painful to say but I see them as being only the third or fourth best team in the playoffs.
