Congrats to the renegades but Im more happy for Luis Perez. Guy has been through so many different leagues with different levels of success. Man finally finished a season with a championship. Hats off to him. Well deserved!

[@nickJd95]

Facts!

[@larryfreeman3301]

The King of Spring Football still going strong

[@wildwine6400]

Arlington played so well. Them getting Perez really injected new life into them. The Defenders must be gutted, it was their game to win but the Renegades showed they can bring it

[@the_advocate_tfc7660]

from the looks of it. It was never their game to win.

[@rafa57games]

Ta'mu played an amazing regular season, but wasn't able to deal with the playoffs pressure. Perez, on the other hand, played the last 2 games like an MVP. I'm so happy for my team, really looking forward to next year

[@Throwbacks2023]

Thanks to *Victors Valiant* for all the highlights, great job 🏆

[@rivalstorm7216]

I said I'll cry if Arlington wins and I did. I couldn't be any happier 😭

[@LarryLadale]

As an Arlington native, this is pretty crazy. First Arlington team championship, since the old minor league baseball and old city college days. From one of the worst, to the outright best!!!

[@bearaddictionz]

Plz come back. It;s your time to shine

[@fcruz43215]

Wow...I did not see that coming! I'm a DC fan, but gotta give it to Arlington. Played great football

[@dr.davidenglish778]

I watched the whole XFL season a few weeks ago over a three day period including the semi-finals. Arlington played a great game on both sides of the ball. I have no idea where the DC team was because that was not a team, that was an embarrassment. DC was playing catch up the entire game and made so many mistakes. While the final score was 9 points, in reality it was never close. Congratulations to Arlington.

[@0laje]

Aye bro this season here i Need you back bro

[@ericsupermagnificent]

This is one fun and entertaining league, spring football is the best!

[@larrybrown9883]

The Renegades led the league in int's and had 3 in this one and 4 takeaways all together......that was the difference. They also scored on every possession until the late fumbled snap that gave DC one last push. Signing Perez completely changed this team. They had such poor QB play that led to so many losses and such a inept offense u til they found him. They had a really good defense so to get a guy like Perez was all they needed and I think DC and Houston were taken by surprise and didn't expect the team they played.

[@calebbelac1439]

man what a season

[@curtishughes5430]

Solid win! Definitely the better team. Complete team win.

[@DDDiego]

Everything really changed for the better when Perez was traded from Vegas. Hated to see him go but he’s a freaking champ now, can’t get any better than that!

[@CalledTurnAGundam]

They made the game. I knew they *could* do it. I just didn't think they *would* do it. I had a bad feeling about this game up until that lead hit double digits. Then shock, disbelief, fully expecting the other shoe to drop at any moment. Dallas area teams always find ways to lose important games... But the shoe never dropped. Sure there were rumblings but.... never did I ever fear the outcome of this game. It felt almost inevitable. Impossible, yet inevitable. *> My team

[@waynetompkins3006]

Congratulations to the XFL for actually completing a season. Great job by Bob Stoops and Luis Perez. They're still only a .500 team, but they have a championship. You don't see that very often. Was Lucky Jackson injured? I didn't hear his name called once.

[@wildwine6400]

And a big thanks to you @VictorsValiant for covering the season. Impatiently waiting the new season! Will be back then

[@spencerrose6011]

Cool to see, I hope this xfl thing takes off.

[@RenDomP]

Luis Pérez ❤❤❤❤Thank you for teaching every day more than in MX football or soccer is also written FOOTBALL You are NFL!!!!!

[@Ted_Bell]

Did Victor die? Where is this dude?

[@jovannealonso3867]

Man I didn't know the renegades had that much power

[@wilfordfootball79]

Yea they must have keep a secret lol to win this championship game

[@larryfreeman3301]

They always had a solid defense, but were always a quarterback away from maximizing their offense. Crazy to think that they had only scored 15 or more points once all season before Perez came. After the week 9 game where they lost to DC by two points, I think that's when they really started to believe

[@jmemixx]

Their defense always was good until one of their main players got hurt then he came back and it was like they were back to their old ways and picking off everyone lol

[@indycritic1346]

Never expected my Renegades would win, chose them because I liked their uniforms. Super happy they pulled it off

[@dugger0]

Can't wait for your videos this spring.

[@tadroid3858]

Thanks for your highlights all season!

[@andrewandersen779]

Congratulations Arlington

[@rohmarts]

Another season in the books. Thanks as always VV.

[@dreamsaltine]

WYA bro

[@cibnco1493]

Ong I need the games

[@adgtheone]

Nice game. This was definitely a win for the league.

[@adgtheone]

@@malus1426 Offense puts butts in the seats. The New Orleans Breakers just suffered their first loss of the season to the abysmal Memphis Showboats, 17-10. The USFL is going nowhere, while the XFL can deliver playoff games with teams that have something resembling an NFL offense. The '07 Patriots weren't exactly their record. It happens. The future for the XFL is bright, no doubt about it!

[@sbcj9]

Only the XFL would have a team at 5-6 be in the championship game. But you know what, that kind of unknown thing is what made the XFL fun to watch this season. I really enjoyed watching the games this year. Can't wait for next year

[@darthbader6506]

Thank you VV, I've loved watching this season

[@LarryLadale]

The amazing O-Line finally matched well with the skills postions. Great win!

[@leviwykes]

DC, You ought to be ashamed of yourselves

[@binkyxz3]

. . . dirty play by Wallace #99 on last play

[@carbonclaw7280]

I watch this and it feels like your starter team vs the best in the division when starting a new game on Blitz: The League lol..damn I miss that game...

[@mixedhairless]

Hello Vegas, you cut Perez, and guess what he just did ? 😂😂😂😂😂

[@JTGamesz]

We miss victors valiant

[@uncleogee604]

Amen

[@clipcoug1139]

The Dallas/Arlington area can now finally celebrate another championship in football

[@_PrimetimePranks]

Renegades defense has been great all year. Thanks to Perez their offense finally clicked.

[@cliftonmoore5706]

Nice. 1st look @XFL championship action, quite a thrill!

[@JOJO-dq6yh]

congrats to Arlington, they earned an opportunity & won a championship. i do believe though, the XFL will make a change to playoff seeding next season so the teams with best regular season records make the playoffs.

[@christheintrovert8100]

Idk if i like xfl or im just waiting for nfl but im always here watching the games

[@danieltouchstone1944]

Great job renegades from a battlehawks fan!!!

[@Squidicus]

For anybody doubting how good this league can be, this game had it all. Great game to both teams, can't wait for next season.

[@wilfordfootball79]

Wow this crazy

[@infiniteaaron]

Trying to avoid the comments to see the result, I almost messed up. It feels like Arlington just took a bit to play well together. They're lucky to have made it to this game.

[@jessiewatson5215]

Great game

[@zacsmith1587]

ARL looked inspired, completely different from their whole season. It came together really well, and DC just either got caught complacent or just plain outballed. Kinda seems like the latter to me. Either way, hats off to XFL for making it a full season, hats off to the Renegades for a really well-played game, and big thanks to Valiant for the highlights. Until next year, folks. (Kaw is Law.)

[@ArchieBunkerGaming]

Can’t believe the under dog won the ship 🏆

[@mainstream3828]

I’d say this season was a massive W for the XFL

[@cinimatics]

Well shit. They didn't just beat DC they had them angry and frazzled.

[@thatotherguy4528]

I knew they had the talent to win games they just needed to build team chemistry

[@larrybrown9883]

The Renegades may have been a losing team record wise but after they signed Perez they were a completely different team and significantly better. They probably shouldn't have made it in I agree but that's the dumb rule however they were clearly the best team in the playoffs. They went 0-3 against Houston and DC but whipped em both in the playoffs setting season highs in points in both. Lets be real here DCs defense was terrible and allowed scores on every posession until the very last one when Perez fumbled the snap. Perez took em to OT in their only meeting of the season and lost 28-26. They were simply better when it mattered most.

[@holdthetruthhostage]

OMG That Was An Underdog Story

[@chuz8452]

Not doing CFB this year?

[@ernestgamez9794]

Happy for the Renegades, Happy for Perez. The Rock and Garcia did not care about having the Game In DC. Always has to be where the money and the Big Crows are (Texas).

[@MrThekingofrock97]

After 26 long years dallas finally has a football team that can win in the postseason 😂

[@BWV-tb3yu]

Great game hopefully battlhawks can get one in 2024

[@ianthehyper474]

Wow, a losing team won the championship… I’m quite shocked… but congrats to Arlington!

[@martyklestadt6766]

I'm glad that they did...maybe now the XFL will re-think the playoffs and just go with the three best teams overall for the playoffs.

[@ericsupermagnificent]

@@martyklestadt6766 Didn't you said 2 weeks ago that you hope Arlington gets crushed because they didn't deserve to be in it?

[@martyklestadt6766]

@@ericsupermagnificent Not exactly. I said that I wanted either for Arlington to get crushed, OR for them to win. Either result makes the XFL look foolish for having four teams in instead of three. Only a close game that went to D.C. would have avoided that.

[@ericsupermagnificent]

@@martyklestadt6766 You're the only one that wants a 3-team playoff format, you can say the same thing for the USFL.

[@martyklestadt6766]

@@ericsupermagnificent I DO say the same thing for the USFL. Both should have a three-team playoff. Are you saying that I'm the only one who thinks a team that's under .500 (for the regular season) shouldn't have a chance at the championship?

[@keeganwallace860]

@victors Valliant, where did you go? Michigan had a hell of a season and I waited all season to see your clips 😢

[@Erik_The_Viking]

Way to go Arlington - they played extremely well and brought their A game against DC.

[@kvx999]

And once again Jordan Ta'amu shows why he's not in the NFL!!!!!

[@matthewbailey3816]

this was fast

[@a.d.prayer1779]

First I want to say the refs called a good game, that said the XFL needed Arlington to win this game to justify the horrible way teams get into the playoffs. If DC won then the XFL would have to rethink that whole playoff process. TBH they still should revise the process cause this underdogs winning shit is not the norm.

[@AyYeti]

Lets gooo i live like 10 mins away from Arlington

[@Tha3rd]

And when we needed @victorsvailant the most he vanished… 💔

[@justinklinck6575]

Never underestimate Mr. Bob Stoops. He lead a pretty dominant college team for nearly two decades. He's not the greatest coach ever, but I knew he'd do okay in this sloppy-seconds league.

[@OgbongbemigaGOAT]

please come back nobody posts college football highlights like u

[@MatthiaGryffine]

So that's the Boston Bruins, Milwaukee Bucks, Phoenix Suns and now the DC Defenders. Welcome to Spring 2023.

[@jacksonpriestap3685]

And to think, people were mad that they even made it to the playoffs…

[@jahmenace2152]

no more posts ??

[@CHRISPYakaKON]

Such a dope game though I wish DC played better

[@mailemcdevitt7930]

At least it was a Texas team to win go roughnecks go.

[@jamessnyder9659]

Hey Defenders beer snake this...way to go Gades!!!

[@johnmoreno2814]

Where are the college highlights?? Need them!!

[@brendanmoore7968]

He quit

[@chuckittyduckitty]

DC's only loss was to the worst team in the XFL, Orlando guardians 😂

[@JerryRevolution]

Wow DC.

[@davidvaliant9411]

I missed most of the game because of my graduation. When i got home and saw that the score was 32-20, i just busted out laughing. Congrats Arlington, as a battlehawk in florida, I was pissed that we missed the playoffs, but I also wanted the underdogs to win. At least you shut up DC for us. KAW IS THE LAW.

[@Loyard777]

Abe smith looks like a Texan now

[@tazman98ify]

It’s just good to see the City winnin. 🔥

[@redarcher1416]

looking forward to NFL preseason highlight

[@infiniteaaron]

Wow. From losing to the worst team in the XFL to losing to the worst team in the playoffs. Then again, I do feel like Arlington came into their own as the season continued, only getting better as time went by. Congratulations to them!

[@rafaelito975]

Hi, I hope you are well, you did not post videos after this one.

[@StainlessSteelPolish]

Arlington Renegades: the best team in the XFL for the last two games.

I can’t believe DC LOST THEY WERE 10-1 omgggggg but congrats to Arlington

[@axerveon2916]

Dallas finally won a championship!

[@DnycAlchemist]

Michigan played yesterday

[@thewadz5878]

Football history was made yesterday evening. If you were to show the regular season W-L record to fans at the begining of the season, would they have picked Arlington to take it? Probably not.😂 One of if not the greatest comeback stories in football.

Renegades!!! Now if only that other football team in Arlington could win a championship 😒

[@ikaikagalinato4594]

Good example of records meaning nothing. Gota win the ones that matter.

If D’eriq King not the starter next szn he gotta go somewhere else 🤦🏽‍♂️

Crazy, a team without a winning record wins the Championship lol.

[@acsummer-ol1ux]

DC both losses, underestimate there opponents

[@bigpeeler]

St Louis was robbed.

[@W3SXX7]

Not sure if St Louis could beat Arlington if DC couldn’t, and DC only lost one game; from a Seattle fan

[@demarcuscullors5628]

STL wasn't robbed. They should've beat Seattle at home when they had the chance.

[@iowapanner2223]

@@demarcuscullors5628 True, as a STL fan I looked at all the opportunities we had to come out ahead in the tie breaker scenario. Since points in the season are a factor teams should think about loading up the score when they are winning. Arlington sure picked a good time to peak!

[@Alleykatsks]

5 and 6 but in the championship..then won it?!

[@DukeofGames50]

6-6 now they ended .500

[@jayrod3302]

XFL more exciting the USFL in my opinion

[@Hutchdh]

Kind of a knock on the league that a 6-6 team is champion. I thought the xfl was better than USFL, but if the renegades can win it all, I guess not.

[@Mike-aka747]

Any USFL team would embarrass Arlington.

[@DallasTheGreat28]

Please go back to being the DALLAS Renegades
