Adam's Team come up short of projections, succumb to Flash Gordon in 121.64-75.92 rout

There's no easy way to say it, Adam's Team underperformed, at least based on projections, as Flash Gordon cruised to a 121.64-75.92 win. This matchup was decided before it really even started, as Flash Gordon leapt out to a 45.72-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind outstanding efforts from Melvin Gordon III (27.6 points) and Mason Crosby (19). Todd Gurley II (42 Rush Yds, 3 Rush TDs, 31 Rec Yds) and Drew Brees (243 Pass Yds, 2 Pass TDs) carried the flag for Adam's Team in defeat. Flash Gordon (1-1) will look to get another W against The white one, while Adam's Team (1-1) will attempt to right the ship against Ollie's Perfect Team.
