Munoz come up short of expectations, lose to Mean Joe Green in 123.46-103.12 rout

There's no sugarcoating it, Munoz didn't do their job, at least based on projections, as Mean Joe Green rolled to a 123.46-103.12 win. There wasn't much drama in the matchup, as Mean Joe Green earned a 30.84-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind a combined 59.4 points from Todd Gurley II (42 Rush Yds, 3 Rush TDs, 31 Rec Yds) and Adam Thielen (12 Rec, 131 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD). Amari Cooper (19.6 points) and Davante Adams (18.4) led the way for Munoz in the loss. Mean Joe Green (1-1) will look to maintain their momentum against Bradshaws Bombers, while Munoz (0-2) will match up against LT's Giants in an effort to right the ship.
